ASM to IL compiler
Posted by Mikhail Esteves under: Random Websites .
Yup, it’s true. It’s really the x86 (Intel 80386 actually) instruction set that gets compiled into IL. Literally it is an “80386 Assembler scripting Language” for ASP.NET.
“Very Usefull”, you might think! “Just the sort of thing you have been looking for”, I hear you say!Direct memory access?
Nothing has changed. A security exception will tell you when you’re doing something wrong. You’re only allowed access to your own data segment.Pointers in .NET?
Good point. But pointers are not bad in .NET (performance is, though). Pointers are still there – they are just considered evil. With 80386 scripting you can still generate memory exceptions and bring the web-server down. It’s things like this that make assembler programmers feel powerful.Framework access?
Like WinForms and stuff? Forget those. They are high-level crap anyway.
There is basic access to some of the ASP.NET object methods, but that’s all.Isn’t MSIL stackbased?
Yes. And that’s why this whole project will probably never become really popular amongst my fellow assembler programmers. The generated code is simply too slow!
One Comment so far...

Drive clean works to good, it cleaned out my good cookies in my cookie jar program. Any way to protect my cookie jar contents. I only have limited computer capability. richard
