ICI is a C-like, high level language originally developed by Tim
|
|
|
|
|
Long and placed into the public domain. ICI marries C's expression
|
|
|
|
|
syntax, control structures and overall feel, with a dynamic, garbage
|
|
|
|
|
collected, object-based, data model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ICI is typically used as a scripting-like language in the fashion
|
|
|
|
|
of Perl, Python, TCL and other such languages. ICI can be called
|
|
|
|
|
from C and the language itself can be extended allowing applications
|
|
|
|
|
to provide domain specific functions, types and operators for use
|
|
|
|
|
in their ICI programs. Embedding in an application also allows the
|
|
|
|
|
application to make use of ICI's efficient object system which
|
|
|
|
|
provides many useful facilities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ICI is in the public domain, there is no copyright on it.
