Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler Edward G. Nilges
Publisher: Apress

It's a nice introduction to compiler design, and you can download the C# source for the sample compiler that's discussed. This means you can call .NET methods and use .NET classes in PHP code, and you can call PHP . NET); Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler - Nilges (due in Feb 2004, nice to see a compiler book that will use VB.NET as its basis language). The article is a walkthrough on the creation of a simple programming language and a corresponding compiler that targets the .NET CLR virtual machine. Perhaps this will be the starting point for the creation of your own programming language. For example, you can imagine a web framework that uses C# to write the domain model and PHP to build the user interface. It is designed to allow seamless interoperability with other .NET languages in both directions. This practical book presents techniques that you can apply to everyday work. There ARE products which "post-build" your IL modules to x86 and statically link .NET dependencies. This looks like it's going to happen soon. Phalanger is PHP compiler into .NET byte code. The C# developer base is huge, so a native C# compiler will push the language even further to new platforms and projects that are currently unsuitable for development with C#. BR As I see it the major problem is that Tcl is interpreted (bytescodes are mostly a compile-time feature) while the language portability features of .NET seem to be targeted at (limited to?) compiled languages only. Type systems, and assembly languages. Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler. At first, the programming community resisted the use of computers for program development, perhaps for the same hard-wired reasons some guys don't ask for directions when they're lost. It will enable developers to write ALL Net assembly.
