Other target language

[danie...@gmail.com]

Hi there. 

I am currently investigating SharpKit for using it in my (several year old) project where I've been using Haxe before. Since C# is my favourite language and the IDE support is simply awesome I was looking for other solutions. Lately I was investigating the Saltarelle Compiler and it works nicely. But in my project I also want to support multiple platforms: Desktop using C#, Web using JavaScript and Android using Java. Sadly there are no good C# to Java compilers. But if it's possible to compile C# to JavaScript it should be possible to compile C# to Java too (if you aren't using too features like the dynamic). 

I was reading a bit in your code and it seems you have quite a tight coupling of your middleend and backend in your compiler. I was wondering if your compiler architecture will allow an extension where C# gets compiler to Java. Simply said there is a need for a Java AST like the JavaScript AST (JsNode) and a MemberConverter which does the conversion. 

Looking forward to your response. 

Greetings

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Actually, I have personally created a C# to Java compiler, using SharpKit source code as basis. Let me locate it, and upload it to github and we can take it from there. In any case, SharpKit compiler has a plug-in model that allows you to add more features, or even new target languages to it. Feel free to contact me directly (or via sharpkit support email) regarding this matter.

Cheers

I have pushed the code into github:

If you'd like to be added to the project just let me know.

Cheers

Wow, you are my hero. I will start investigating the compiler this weekend. 

Cheers.
