Re: Scriptable dynamic forms applications

> SQL Server

SQL Server .Net usage resulted in a variety of changes to the way memory is allocated in .Net, which to many, are the reason why .Net 2.0 official release is late.
You can most defenitely use it, but I reckon the code to wrap it, make it safe and operate in a controled fashion is probably larger than the code of most script engines ;)

Also, keep in mind that SQL Server, NexusDB or Oracle scripting are targeted at 'normal' (professionnal) developpers.

Well, I did some experiments on strings, and DWS kick the s..t out of ..Net, while getting kicked itself by native Delphi.

GC could be the problem but probably not that much
if .NET "scripts" would not allocate anything major.

That's assuming your scripts will be correct code, correctly programmed, by people that know exactly what they're doing, which IME isn't always the purpose of scripts (in our case, most scripts are made by consultants and part-time developpers, and ugly stuff they do write)

MSN Messenger is the first thing I kick out of windows after install, don't plan of ever installing it back ;)
Mail or ng may thus be more indicated.
