Hi Peter,

 

we did a MSIL to C++ backend in our LSW DotNet Reflection-Browser some years back. It avoided the need of C++ parser because we decompiled MSIL..

Just curious what it is for ? we introduced Smalltalk deompiler backend just to increase readability of .NET code for Smalltalkers.

hi,

Taking back the base technologies into the fold of Smalltalk Style Systems.

Smalltalk and C were both designed with operating systems in mind.

Unix had the prevailing popular OS design.

Smalltalk Style Systems have the prevailing superior Messaging-Objects design.

Absorb and transform ALL C/C++ code into something new jettisoning the current bases in C/C++ with transformations into Smalltalk Style Systems.

Be license aware and appropriate of course.

Just a thought.

Now to try some cool visualizations of large C++ ick. Shivers.

Cheers,

Peter
