fun4j is a framework that integrates major concepts from functional programming into the Java Platform. It also provides seamless integration of Java with Lisp coding, by using a lisp-to-bytecode compiler. This is a Clojure to JavaScript compiler which is written in Closure which is executed on a JVM. A Java interpreter for a lisp like language. Scheme (dialect of Lisp) interpreter written in Java. Greebo is a multi-paradigm programming language that borrows on concepts from Lisp, Dylan, Lua or IO. Some features are tail recursion optimization, both lexical and dynamic closures, zero special forms (‘def’ or ‘if’ can be used like any other procedure), first-class environments whose bindings and properties may be manipulated at wish, powerful macros, literal indexers and slices for anything that is a collection and more. Its author claims that “Alef++ is a new programming language like Perl and Lisp syntax, with a many changing in classical languages designs”. It is proposed as a dynamic language is based in Java Virual Machine and designed to OO-Style programmers. It is claimed to have a new design for flow controls, an easy manipulaction for arrays and hashs, many styles for subroutines, a crazy syntax and to be designed just for fun. Armed Bear Common Lisp (ABCL) is an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp that runs in a Java virtual machine. It provides a runtime system, a compiler that compiles Lisp source to JVM bytecode, and an interactive REPL for program development. Lili is a new Lisp dialect, initially developped for using it as a sort of central executive or macro language in the Java – integration of an A.I. system called IPAL. There already exists a kind of ‘reference’-interpreter implemented in Java (that incorporates some Lili-Java-interoperability features not inherent to the Lili language specification.). A Scheme interpretter written in Java that uses some compiler-style optimizations for better performance than straightforward interpretters. Originally started in 1996 as a project to learn Java programming, BDC Scheme was used as an extension language in a commercial product starting in 1997. Previous to open source release in 2002 it was written up as part of an a MIT MEng thesis in 2000 where it was referred to as Script. The thesis covers the history of the implementation and benchmarks the performance relative to a variety of other Scheme implementations, both Java and non-Java based such as Kawa, Silk, Skij, Scheme 48, MIT Scheme. Both Sun and IBM are used in the comparison. Sixx is an interactive Lisp implementation in a 20KB jar file. It only requires JRE 1.1 making it suitable for applets. It supports a subset of Scheme (a lot of R4RS, R5RS and aims for some R6RS) including call/cc, but not hygienic macros (yet) or syntax-case. It is simple to call Java from Scheme and Scheme from Java. |
