| I was reading some .net stuff (ducks) on microsoft, and they | mentioned haskell as one of the languages someone was | targetting for it. | Anyone know anything about this project? I know of several stabs in this direction, none completed. - There is most of a Java back end for GHC - There are various pieces of a C# back end for GHC, compiling via in intermediate generic OO language called GOO. Nigel Perry is working on this (actively I think) - Don Syme and Reuben Thomas are working on a back end for GHC that compiles to a polymorphically-typed IL for .NET that is Don's baby. A lot of this works, but it's not complete. Maybe others are doing stuff too? It's a pity that there's nothing that's usable yet, but I hope that'll change. Simon
