Open Source Scala Runtimes

The Mozart Programming System is an open source implementation of the programming language Oz 3. Oz is a multi-paradigm language that supports declarative programming, object-oriented programming, constraint programming, concurrency and distributed programming as part of a coherent whole.

Scala Native is an optimizing ahead-of-time compiler and lightweight managed runtime designed specifically for Scala. Pointers, structs, you name it. Low-level primitives let you hand-tune your application to make it work exactly as you want it to. You’re in control. Calling C code has never been easier. With the help of extern objects you can seamlessly call native code without any runtime overhead. Scala Native is compiled ahead of time via LLVM. This means that there is no sluggish warm-up phase that’s common for just-in-time compilers. Your code is immediately fast and ready for action. Scala Native requires Clang, which is part of the LLVM toolchain. The recommended LLVM version is the most recent available for your system provided that it works with Scala Native. Scala Native uses the Immix garbage collector by default. You can use the Boehm garbage collector instead. If you chose to use that alternate garbage collector both the native library and header files must be provided.
