compiler/comp_unit_interface.m:
When we cannot generate a .int0/.int/.int2 file because of file access
issues, the reason is *usually* that we can't read a .int3 file.
However, it is also possible that the reason is that we can't read
a .int0 file, so include that possibility in the overall error message.
(The "can't read this file" message, with the specifics of the file
that couldn't be read, would have been printed earlier.)

Mercury
Mercury is a logic/functional programming language which combines the clarity and the expressiveness of declarative programming with advanced static analysis and error detection features.
More information is available on the website's about pages, in other README files in the source code repository, and in the documentation.
Small sample programs written in Mercury can be found in the samples and extras directories of the source code repository.
README files
The Mercury compiler has two different backends and works on different operating systems. Specific information is contained in individual README files:
-
Bootstrapping discusses how to get Mercury installed.
This is important, as the Mercury compiler is written in Mercury.
-
C Low-level backend
This backend works well with GCC but also works with:
-
High-level backend targets
-
Supported operating systems
-
Other platform information
Other information
See the current release notes for the latest stable release. The news file lists any recent changes. The history file is relevant if you want to find out more about the past development of Mercury. The limitations file lists some ways in which the Mercury implementation does not yet meet its goals.
