That's fantastic! I might finally be idly productive in C++ as I am in javascript.
In javascript, I find that you can just write code, while in C++ I feel that I need to plan out every design choice, need to protect against everything. While that's a good thing when writing production code, in certain situations (writing up proof-of-concept projects for example) it's just not what I want. I love that in javascript, half the time I don't need to give a crap - it just works.
Hopefully, as a side-effect of this project, I'll be able to do what I do in C++ as I do in Javascript - although in the long run that probably isn't a good thing. ;)
There was mention of a performance overhead of _ as a suggestion as to how to improve... How does JSPP, in its current state, compare with V8 execution speed?
