Microsoft CIL package

#1

I’m starting to learn Microsoft CIL (Common Intermediate Language) and have written a small package with a build system and very basic syntax highlighting. It’s available from the repo at https://sublime-text-community-packages.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Microsoft.CIL

Hey Steve,

Totally unrelated to Sublime…

Do you have any practical need for that knowledge (besides expanding your understanding of the Net Framework)? I’m curious when someone would need to look that deep into the internals of NET.

Hi,

At the moment I’ve set myself the project of learning to write compilers for simple DSLs. I want to be able to write them as Visual Studio languages, so that you get full Visual Studio integration, and can compile them to .net assemblies. I’m getting on well enough with the front end (parsing text) so I thought I’d look at the back end, and how to generate dlls.

Steve,

Wow, you are pretty damn ambitious! I would love to hear some updates as you tread through this undertaking…
