Envision if you will, a compiler written in Pick BASIC, which can compile an 
object-oriented syntax.
Two passes, first turning the syntax into ordinary Pick BASIC code, and then 
compiling that.

Will

he interpreter is in C#. 
he compiler is in UniVerse - I know that seems mad but there are good
rchitectural reasons.
That's all I'm going to say for now - there are a couple of sites using it
ut everyone else will have to wait until the new year.

nd FWIW my new dev environment, on general release early next year, uses a
ient side language modelled on UniVerse Basic but with component and event
iented features...
ideously contrived example follows -
 get the author id from a selection dialog
thor = This.AUTHOR.Text
 Author = "" Then
 STOP
d
 pointless validation to prove a point
ad AuthorRec From U2_AUTHORS, Author Else
 ShowMessage "Not a known author"
 STOP
d
 change the selection command property for a report
L = 'SSELECT U2_BOOKS'
L := ' WITH AUTHOR_ID = "': OConv(Author, "MCU"):'"'
ookList.Command = TCL
 run it ..
okList.Run()
 how about saving the results?
okList.SaveToFile("c:\temp\mybooks.txt")
and so forth - you get the idea)
 did the same for an older - now defunct - Windows 4GL many years ago as a
y of helping UniVerse developers bridge the gap. Seemed like a good time
 resurrect it in my new toolkit.
