MSIL to JavaScript Compiler
Michael Ten-Pow · 2006
The MSIL to JavaScript compiler is a program that translates MSIL programs into equivalent JavaScript programs can be executed within a browser. This is important because of the new found interesting in using JavaScript to develop AJAX applications that target the browser. The problem is that JavaScript development tools are not suited for building large-scale AJAX applications. The MSIL to JavaScript compiler is an effort to bolster JavaScript development efficiency and ease by allowing developers to use the rich set of development tools available for the .NET platform, and having the resulting program run as a JavaScript/AJAX application. MSIL is the intermediary “byte-code” language used by the .NET platform.
