SuperForth-CSharp
This project aims to provide seamless interoperability between native-SuperForth, and C# a signifigant reduction in performance or flexebility.
Key Features:
- Interoperability with Microsoft's .NET libraries.
- Other projects like the Iron Languages reimplement their respective languages in C# for .NET interoperability, often at a high performance cost.
- Because SuperForth is written in C#, the only real performance costs are marshalling/interoperation between SuperForth's C backend and it's C# frontend wrapper. Therfore SuperForth scripting in C# is much more performant than many other alternatives implemented directly in C#.
- Security, and Code Trust
- SuperForth CSharp is designed with the zero-trust principle in mind: It assumes all SuperForth binaries are potentially malicious.
- Extra bounds checking with memory access/writing.
- Extra runtime type-checking to ensure that the binary doesn't crash the instance fatally
- That means no C-like segfaults or other C errors.
- SuperForth's FFI can restrict and control what functinalities to give to the script.
- SuperForth CSharp is designed with the zero-trust principle in mind: It assumes all SuperForth binaries are potentially malicious.
- Interoperability with SuperForth
- Interact with superforth code via SuperForth's FFI
- Possible use cases include performant plugin scripting in one's C# app, game, or server.
- You can read more about superforth's many powerful features here.
- SuperForth supports parametric polymorphism with both records and functions.
- SuperForth is a functional programming language, designed around the first-class anonymous function.
