Recently added a small DWScript-MCP repository with MCP (Model Context Protocol) samples for DWScript.
This showcases how you can deploy a custom MCP server with basically nothing else than the DWSWebServer.exe. That’s less than 8 MB, a couple small script files and no dependencies… and it can even run under Linux with Wine!

A tentative new language feature has been pushed to the DWScript repository: “property reintroduce”.
The aim is to allow a method to be reintroduced as a property, and do so in a non-fatal fashion so it can be pushed to production and existing code can be migrated iteratively. (more…)
DWScript has been updated for Delphi 12 support, there are only minor changes required and they are in the DWScript repository.
On a side note, the Delphi 12 IDE definitely feels more snappy when navigating code or invoking code insight (ctrl+space) on large projects (more than 2 MLOC), which is nice!
Support for “readonly” class fields has been added to DWScript repository.
The syntax is similar to the one in Oxygene, with a qualifier following a field declaration: (more…)
Periodic DWScript release 22.6.28 has been created on the DWScript GitHub.
This release includes a variety of micro-optimizations (many memory-related) for the compiler, runtime and JavaScript codegen, as well as fixes and improvements.
The language syntax has been slightly extended for the Pascal-to-Javascript transpiler to cover the case of read-only external properties. (more…)
As a bunch commits were just made, it is a good opportunity for a spotlight on dwsDateTime and TdwsFormatSettings.
The class was initially born out of two needs:
With the new year, work finally started on getting a Windows 64bit Just-In-Time compiler up and running for DWScript.
The repository on Bitbucket and the mirror on GitHub both already hold first working elements. At the moment unit tests are passing, though with effective JIT for only a smaller subset of features than for the 32 bit JIT.

Just a quick notice that the DWScript source code has begun a transition to Delphi 10.2.3 up from Delphi XE.
The goal is to target Win32 and Win64 compilers, mobile platforms and Delphi Linux are currently not in the scope.

A belated Happy New Year and Best Wishes for 2017!
This site and news have been neglected for much of 2016, this year’s resolution will be to try and revive it a bit.
In particular announcements and articles have fallen way behind the code as far as DWScript is concerned. So I will start the year by attempting to rectify that.
