Domain-specic language implementation is in general not an easy task. This is the main reason that kept them from getting more attention and reaching the expectations of domain-specic language researchers. Implementation of a domain-specic language can be demanding, but also very rewarding. Once the hard work is done, we can prot a lot from the effort invested. The purpose of this paper is to present a domain specic language construction with extending the open compilers. Their source code n available, well organized and clear n gives the language designers a possibility to incorporate their domain specic constructs into the general-purpose language by extending its compiler. In this paper, we present extension of Mono C# compiler with representative domain-specic language.
