Welcome to the SSCLI community web siteThis site is a central location where people working with the Microsoft Shared Source Common Language Infrastructure (which is such an ugly mouthful we will herewith start using the name ROTOR) can exchange ideas, code snippets, work on joint projects, etc. This project website is open for all developers and researchers who want to collaboratively work on public projects that use any of the CLI/CLR technologies. What is ROTOR?Rotor is a free, fully functional implementation of the ECMA #335 standard for a common language infrastructure. It also includes a compiler for C# (ECMA #334), and an implementation of JScript. It is closely related to the Microsoft .NET Common Language Runtime. Most importantly, it's all delivered entirely as source code and is licensed under liberal terms so that it can be used freely for research and educational purposes. Read Microsoft's description of Rotor. David Stutz, one of the authors of Rotor, described it thus: "It's an amazing piece of software for those who love browsing or tinkering with programming language infrastructure. In its million-plus lines of source code, you will find compilers, tools, techniques for automatically managing memory, just-in-time (JIT) code generators, component and Web services infrastructure, globalization know-how, security protocols, and all sorts of other intriguing realizations of abstract concepts." What's on SSCLI.net?There are three tabs in the left top corner, under the Rotor logo that direct you to the main sections of this site:
