Hi,
I'm new to JScript.NET, although I have been using JavaScript and Java for a
long time. I was messing around with the JScript.NET compiler and I was
wondering if I could write a program (a real application, not a web page)
using JScript.NET. I've read a few articles about the .NET framework and I
kinda got the impression that, if you use any .NET language, you can use the
same library despite the language you use. So I'm thinking that since
System.Console.WriteLine("Hello World"); is the command line you need for a
C# program, you could use the same line in a JScript program? I know it
doesn't work, but can anyone clarify this for me? And also please answer to
my first question - whether you could write a GUI-based window application
or not. Thanks.

The following works for me with, tested with .NET SDK 1.1:

import System;

public class Test20040704 {
public static function Test (args: String[]) : void {
Console.WriteLine("Kibology for all: {0}.", DateTime.Now);
}
}

Test20040704.Test([]);

It should be possible but clearly MS doesn't see JScript.NET as a
language for writing WinForm applications, for that they have C# and
VB.NET with the proper tool support.

It is more the possible to write entire applications in JScript .NET.
The above link is to a wizard framework I've developed and then
ported to a number of popular .NET languages so it could be made
available to a larger audience.
