From Mirah.org, on the howto page, I should be able to use mirahc --java <SOME_FILE> to acquire java files from my source. However, I get Unrecognized flag: --java. I checked --help on both mirah and mirahc, and neither have a --java flag listed.
Is this no longer a feature?
Coming from a strong background of Java and Ruby, I was hoping to learn by trying things and viewing the compiled Java source.
EDIT:
I just checked here, github.
Apparently it was removed for some reason. Anyone know why?
It turns out that this is a deprecated feature (for reasons I have not discovered).
However, after some hunting, this same functionality can be simulated by use of a Java decompiler after having compiled with
mirahc.Jad turned out to be perfect for the job, generating perfect Java source to illuminate what Mirah is doing behind the scenes.
