idea for an operating system!!!!!! from a hacker!!!!

[granite stone]

Use a c++ compiller as an operating system on top of ms dos. All files
made in the compiller such as (dot).cdd files like netscape, word,
excel are the exe files we use today. Once you have the compiller up
and running on msdos, pass around games, netscape, word etc and run
them in the compiller (also known as testing the file before you make
it a exe file).

You make no sense.

Have you ever actually used C++?
oh and its spelt compiler - note the single L - A compiller would be a
machine for making pills

There's a f*** sight more to a project than a CPP (not CDD!) file
FYI. CDD are Claris Draw v 1.2 Documents.

"Hacker" - don't make me laugh, script kiddie perhaps.

Do I sense a young person here?

Jon, The .NET system does something similar to what you suggest. Programs
are distributed in a form called "Intermediate Language" which is like
source code but more compressed. Before it's run on the .NET system it's
compiled by a just-in-time compiler to the final code that the computer CPU
can run.

Some speculate that this is a great way to do things because it means that
you could distribute the code to any machine with any CPU type so long as
there was a compiler to do the final translation of the code.

The Common Language Runtime or CLR actually does test the code before it
runs, not for defects that might be in the program structure so much as for
security problems such as use of unauthorized parts of the operating system
or for major faults like the code accessing the wrong part of memory after a
crash.

In future, if you're interested in discussing programming please try to
choose a group like the VB languages or C# group and don't cross-post.

You're being generous calling him a script kiddie!

Sure, not everybody is a troll, but it has often been said that the use of
multiple exclamation marks is a sure sign of a sick mind.

My main irritation was this person had an idea, which is of course his
right, but rather than do the most minimal research to see if it was new he
chose to trumpet it as the best idea ever and patronises us with his aka
comment -We all know about testing software prior to compliation.
And he claims to be a hacker when it is plain to see he knows zilch - given
time and maturity he may well become a good programmer, but he needs to
learn to walk before he tries to run.

I don't think I agree with that!!!!!!!! <g>
