Abstract

Zonnon is a new programming language that combines the style and the virtues of the Pascal family with a number of novel programming concepts and constructs. It covers a wide range of programming models from algorithms and data structures to interoperating active objects in a distributed system. In contrast to popular object-oriented languages, Zonnon propagates a symmetric compositional inheritance model. In this paper, we first give a brief overview of the language and then focus on the implementation of the compiler and builder on top of.NET, with a particular emphasis on the use of the MS Common Compiler Infrastructure (CCI). The Zonnon compiler is an interesting showcase for the.NET interoperability platform because it implements a non-trivial but still “natural ” mapping from the language’s intrinsic object model to the underlying CLR.
