Title: JavaScript for VW Applications
Speaker: Holger Kleinsorgen & Jan Schümmer
Wed, August 20, 11:45am – 12:30pm

Description
Complex applications benefit from a built-in scripting language that is
easy to use and commonly understood. Smalltalk is a cool language for
us, but in some cases and for the broad public, JavaScript is more suitable.
Up to now there was no JavaScript implementation available for Smalltalk
that covers the full JavaScript ECMA 5 standard and shows production
quality.
In our talk we will present features and implementation details of our
JavaScript engine and show how we integrated it into the latest version
of our product “k-infinity”.
As the engine is available under MIT license in the Cincom public
repository, we invite everyone to use it in their own applications.

Bio:
Holger Kleinsorgen and Jan Schümmer are looking back at more than twenty
years of Smalltalk development. They are part of the COAST team (c.f.
ESUG 2000), and together with their colleagues at intelligent views they
are developing the semantic database k-infinity (c.f. ESUG 2001 and 2002).
