SSCLI (ROTOR) 2.0 is out
2.0 version of ROTOR is out, mirroring the major advances in .NET Framework 2.0. You can get the download from here.
Shared Source CLI (aka ROTOR) is released under a shared source license. En excerpt from the download page:
What can I do with the Shared Source CLI?
There is a wealth of programming language technology in the Shared Source CLI. It is likely to be of interest to a wide audience, including:
- Developers interested in the internal workings of the .NET Framework can explore this implementation of the CLI to see how garbage collection works, JIT compilation and verification is handled, security protocols implemented, and the organization of frameworks and virtual object systems.
- Teachers and researchers doing work with advanced compiler technology. Research projects into language extensions, JIT optimizations, and modern garbage collection all have a basis in the Shared Source CLI. Modern compiler courses can be based on the C# or JScript languages implemented on the CLI.
- People developing their own CLI implementations will find the Shared Source CLI an indispensable guide and adjunct to the ECMA standards.
