JScript .NET is a .NET programming language developed by Microsoft as a natural successor to Microsoft's Active Scripting language JScript.
Both JScript and JScript .NET are languages whose syntax is based on that of the C language. JScript began as Microsoft's implementation ECMAScript, which is more commonly known as JavaScript, and has no relation to Sun Microsystems' Java language. The primary differences between JScript and JScript .NET can be summarized as follows:
The original JScript is a scripting language, and as such programs (or more suggestively, scripts) can be executed without the need to compile the code first. This is not the case with the JScript .NET command-line compiler, since this next-generation version relies on the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR) for execution, which requires that the code be compiled to Common Intermediate Language (CIL), formerly called Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), code before it can be run. Nevertheless, JScript .NET still...
