Re: Re: Perl Server (feasibility issues)

I looked in the languages section, and did not see Perl as a supported language. Though, from what little I've gathered, that appears to be what I want to work on.

Though, I would need to get a feel for it... are there any places, other than straight RTFM, that I could possibly play with languages that are already there? Just to get a feel?

There isn't any Perl support within the Mono project per-se. However, there's a dotPerl effort that someone mentioned on one of the mono mailing lists a week or two back, and there is also a Visual Studio.NET module/plug-in of some sort that ActiveState makes. Since these would ultimately produce .Net assemblies, you could then use them under a Mono system. However, both tools (as far as I know) would have to be run under Windows environments that support Visual Studio-level development (i.e. W2K or newer, excluding WinME). `--rjray`	[reply]

So, are Mono and .Net bytecode interpretors? Hmmm, maybe those aren't what I want. Though, I will keep this information in mind for a few future projects.	[reply]
