plan about Wren#

[Xeno Amess]

Step 1:

Learn about how to build documents.(done)

Step 2:

Add Wren# modifications to the documents.(processing)

Step 3:

Migrate the original C code Wren project to Java.

I know here already exist one Java migration, but I still want to learn about how you did this.

(processing)

Step 4:

Optimize the java codes.

fix TODOs and change loop to map in everywhere.

(on plan)

Step 5:

Add Wren# modifications to the java codes.

(on plan)

Step 6:

Merge Wren# into my game engine.

(on plan)

So this is not an easy thing but....

I will try my best.

[Michel Hermier]

Wren# is an odd name, I would have thought it is a CLR implementation of the language.

Anyway, do you plan to use java bytecode? Do you have any other plans beyond a simple port? (Java access or whatever?)

[Xeno Amess]

Java bytecode: No, that is too complicated work, and too hard to maintain. I will just use Java.

I don't quite know your meaning about "Java access" but if you means touch java class and invoke java function in wren vm, yes, there will be.

And after the migration I will add lots of new syntax in it.

For example, continue keyword in loop, include keyword in module management, interface in classes, and lots of other things.

But first, I will focus on the migration. 

No doubt C is fastest, but develop in C really makes me feel sick.
