Hi, there ! ... Another possibility is .NET, which I think is a quite generic VM, in contrast to the JVM, which is more specific to Java ... You have Mono for...
... .NET is poorly suited for dynamically typed languages. Some problems: - There is no way to have pointer-sized values which include pointers to objects and...
Since noone else has replied yet, I'll jump in without really knowing enough and say Dylan is one to look at. Mainly because it's a cleaned up Common Lisp....
Hi, there ! ... Well, yes, but I was thinking about a runtime in .NET for executing your code, I was not thinking about generating .NET code being able to run ...
