Subject: Re: [Mono-list] Java Bytecode -> IL Bytecode Compiler


: The bytecode converter would be relatively simple, but the resulting code
: would be unusable without a set of work alike java class libs built on top

    Let me not worry about this at the initial stages. Let me just focus on the
design of the compiler first.

: of System. Its doable, (and would be very cool) but maping the java corlib
: onto the .net corlib will take alot of work. I suggest you start a second
: project for javalib on .net. It would be very usefull by itself.

    This may be added as a feature for next version of the compiler. Let me
first design a level #0 compiler.
