The biggest challenge with developers writing their own parser is that building a parser is quite complicated and requires a lot of coding effort. The advantage of using Instead of building a custom parser, another alternative is using the .NET compilers. Functional languages are killer at creating DSLs. One interesting example NET CLR (and other platforms). Unfortunately, most texts on language and compiler development are hard to digest, written from academic platforms for use in college-level computer science programs. Mozilla is doing this with the clear goal to compile things to JavaScript and make it perform well. €Python is flexible” Build your own web server in three lines of code. Python is often used as a scripting language. They can parse expressions in all the .NET languages and generate IL code. The advantage of compiled code is that execution is quite fast but on the other hand it takes a significant time to compile the code. NET runtime environment by Microsoft, and Flex to Mircosofts Silverlight: You can create Flash applets using Flex and run them on your desktop with some additional functionality like file saving and similar using AIR. Being originally a C++ programmer, I've All three technologies have very good and fast compilers, nicely designed languages with strong and static typing, comprehensive and very powerful libraries and relatively fast execution speed. Python is free to use because of its OPL- Open Source License; Python supports multiple programming paradigms including object-oriented, imperative and functional programming styles. If a project requires lots of concurrency/parallelism, its own language, or lots of math, you should think functional programming. Certainly every processor has its own assembler and they are very specific, but the browser's JavaScript VM is what runs the "new machine code. You wouldn't build your whole system with a DSL, but, like the 5ESS switch, you could use it to code a critical function in a way that is easier to understand and maintain and, therefore, ensure its quality. It features a fully dynamic type system and automatic memory management, similar to that of Scheme, Ruby, Perl, and Tcl.
