We are happy to announce the alpha release of Internet C++, an open
alternative to Java and C-Sharp. This release is a demonstration and test
of the virtual machine (ICVM), the compiler (igcc), and libraries. Complete
source to Internet C++ and ICVM are available for download, as well as
binary releases of ICVM for Unix/Unix-like platforms, including Linux,
FreeBSD, and NetBSD.
Featuring a high-speed virtual machine (ICVM) that is fast enough to
run Doom with no JIT compilation, Internet C++ provides several standard
libraries such as X and Motif. Download our Doom port and check it out
for yourself!
Internet C++ will bring standard languages and APIs, as well as
current applications, to the Internet.
