I just looked up an article on google's V8 javascript engine.<br>
<br>
The important part is this:<br>
"It increases performance by compiling JavaScript to native machine code before running it, rather than to a bytecode or interpreting it and by employing optimization techniques like inline caching. Thus, JavaScript applications will run at the speed of a compiled binary." *<br>
<br>
Its an open source project, so no reason opensource why it can't be used with like licensed x3d plugins (at least the c++ based ones).</blockquote><div> </div><div>good point </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
<br>
<br>
Should the web3d consortium consider making a project for a version of V8 ecmascript to add the changes need to support x3d scripting ?</blockquote><div> </div><div>or should the web3d consortium support javascript?</div>
