I'm happy to announce a binary release of Screaming Monkey - the Tamarin based Active Scripting Engine for Windows. This release allows you to use JavaScript 2.0 as currently implemented by Tamarin inside Internet Explorer, Active Server Pages, Windows Scripting Host, or any other Active Scripting Engine. This is an Alpha release, suitable for people who are interested in gaining early exposure to the JavaScript engine which will power Mozilla into the future. It is not intended for production use. It may harm innocent children.
For all details, including the download, please visit the Screaming Monkey page at http://wiki.mozilla.org/Tamarin:ScreamingMonkey. The binary will install a README with more information regarding samples, support, current limitations and so forth.
Tamarin is an Open Source Virtual Machine intended to implement JavaScript 2, originally developed by Adobe and was contributed to the Mozilla Project for use in Mozilla 2. The release is cut from the "tamarin-central" branch - for more details, see the README in the binary distribution or the Wiki.

Or even an embeddable C API (preferable SpiderMonkey compatible)?

No, but you can follow the Mozilla2 meetings (and their notes) as announced on dev.planning for progress updates.

Not working on XP with IE6. Works okay on Vista with IE 7.

Works OK for me on XP with IE7, and also on Windows 2000 with IE6 (I don't have an XP with IE6 handy to test with). What does "not working" mean exactly - it installs, but the README indicates the engine is not yet registered?

Hi Mark,
False alarm, its working fine on another XP IE6 machine. I'll see if I can track down why its not working on my machine.

Are you using vs2008 and the makefiles for that compiler? I fear the vs2005 makefiles are getting stale, but my main dev box was just rebuilt so I can't quickly check - I'll try and check the older project files in the next day or so...

editorial comment: *please* support vs2005... for some of us out here, upgrading compilers/IDE is a complete pain. I just upgraded from VC98 to VS2005, and only because I absolutely had to in order to use the Boost libraries (proper C++ template support).

Support for a compiler almost always requires someone with that compiler to take an active interest. Are you that someone for VC2005, perhaps? :)

Okay, obviously I dont know Mercurial, did a 'pull', and an 'update' and now its showing the correct code.
Minor points :-
- obj directories have gained a obj_8 - avmplus_sd.lib is actually avmplus.lib on my system - MMgc_sd.lib is actually MMgc_d.lib on my system - zlib seems to have moved up a directory level towards root.
- Registration is failing
So I deleted every thing and started from scratch and its working fine now, building and registering.
