Wat (wie) is Bigloo - definitie

SCHEME DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT THAT INCLUDES A COMPILER GENERATING C CODE AND JAVA CLASSES, AND AN INTERPRETER

Bigloo         
<language> A Scheme interpreter, compiler and {run-time system} by Manuel Serrano <Manuel.Serrano@inria.fr> which aims to deliver small, fast stand-alone applications. It supports modules and optimisation. Bigloo's features enable Scheme programs to be used where C or C++ might usually be required. The Bigloo compiler produces ANSI C which is compiled into stand-alone executables, JVM bytecode, or .{NET bytecode}. Hence Bigloo enables Scheme programs to interwork with C, Java and C# programs. Bigloo conforms to the IEEE Scheme standard with some extensions for regular expression handling. It runs on Sun, Sony News, SGI, Linux, HP-UX and is easy to port to any Unix system. Latest version: 2.6f, as of 2005-03-29. Bigloo/">Bigloo Home (http://www-sop.inria.fr/mimosa/fp/Bigloo/). (2005-04-05)

Bigloo

Bigloo is a programming language, a dialect of the language Lisp, an implementation of the language Scheme. It is developed at the French IT research institute French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA). It is oriented toward providing tools for effective and diverse code generation that can match the performance of hand-written C or C++. The Bigloo system contains a Scheme compiler that can generate C code and Java virtual machine (JVM) or .NET Framework (.NET) bytecode. As with other Lisp dialects, it contains an interpreter, also termed a read-eval-print loop (REPL). It is free and open-source software. The run-time system and libraries are released under a GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL). The compiler and programming tools are released under a GNU General Public License (GPL).

"Bigloo is a Scheme implementation devoted to one goal: enabling Scheme based programming style where C(++) is usually required."

The Hop web application engine and Roadsend PHP are written in Bigloo.
