Another interesting piece of software downloadable
from the Digital Mars website is DMDScript which is
an ECMA-262 (aka Javascript) implementation
http://www.digitalmars.com/dscript/index.html
DMDScript is available as source and is written
in C++ as well as D. The C++ version exists to help
with interfacing to C++ applications and when support
for the IActiveScript COM interface is desired (e.g.
using DMDScript as an alternative javascript engine
for IE).
Both the D and C++ implementations are claimed to offer
twice the performance of JScript.
The D implementation source code looks very clear and
will probably serve as a great guide to learning how
to write a parser/interpreter (e.g. for computer science
classes).
Since Douglas Crockford's efforts have made Javascript
a very respectable language (he has a nice new book out
- "Javascript - The Good Parts"), DMDScript also looks
like it would make a great language for scripting D code.
