.SH NAME
libjit \- Just-In-Time Compiler Library
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <jit/jit.h>
Link with
.B -ljit
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBlibjit\fR library has an extensive set of routines that takes care
of the bulk of the Just-In-Time compilation process, without tying the
programmer down with language or bytecode specifics.
Unlike other systems such as the JVM, .NET, Parrot, and LLVM, \fBlibjit\fR
is not a virtual machine in its own right. It is the foundation upon which a
number of different virtual machines, dynamic scripting languages, etc,
can be built.
