- ww520 15y agoCould MS be trying to compete with JVM in letting people to create new languages targeting the .Net CLR?
- pixie_ 15y agoThat's already possible.
- contextfree 15y agoAlso, these compiler APIs are language specific, so they don't actually help with that. (it's sort of interesting to think about what a more generic take on this, or a subset of it, would look like, other than the CLR itself, though). edit: I think my grandparent poster was being ironical, since if you know what the CLR is you probably know what it stands for ... right?
- cheez 15y agoNice. They're learning from clang.
