Yes. > I didn't agree that such a desert-topping/floor-wax was desirable. Almost all programming languages are used as code generation targets, and that is a perfectly reasonable way of using them that should be considered as part of language design, including the design of ES-Harmony. It is too late to consider significant changes to ES3.1 supporting its use as a code generation target. -- David-Sarah Hopwood ⚥ _______________________________________________ Es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
