I find it quite amusing, in language arguments like these, that the Sun JVM is written in C++. ;-) There's a research project about a Java-written VM, but that hasn't hit mainstream yet (and I am pretty sure that some core components will still be written in, not just "any other compiled language", but C++).
I disagree. It would be silly to code an assembler in assembly. Are you saying assembly is BS?

i would be careful what you say... there are people who believe that its not a real assembler if its not written in assembly...

What would be the benefits? From what I can tell:
  • importability (you couldn't have cross-assemblers)
  • harder to maintain and easier for bugs to slip in
  • a lot more work
How's that for being productive?

Hi,
I do not have an answer to your question . But there are people who think that writing in assembly language is more productive than using a High Level Language :D .

If this applies to you, you'll already know it :)
