Projects using the JavaScript engines

JSBot

Jsbot uses JavaScript to create a scriptable robot that interacts with IRC (RFC 1459) chat channels. Jsbot's most interesting feature is that you can modify the bot's script directly over the chat connection. It implements its own hookable event model, and has a security model which restricts access to commands based on a user mask. The jsbot is currently a member of the #javascript channel on the EFNet irc network, and goes by the nickname ``mingus'' when it can. See the jsbot homepage for more details, or send mail to Rob Ginda.

SwigJS

SwigJS, built as an extension to SWIG, is a tool to help programmers wishing to provide JavaScript support for an existing C/C++ API. SwigJS parses a simple interface file or or C/C++ header and creates the necessary wrapper functions for a JavaScript script to make use of the API. SwigJS's first test will be to help create JSGtk, yet another script binding to the gtk user interface toolkit. For more details, please see the SWIG homepage and the SwigJS page, or send mail to Josh Gough.

iPlanet Web Servers

iPlanet Netscape Enterprise Server 4.0 is the latest web server from the Sun-Netscape Alliance.

It is a product of the close cooperation between the web server team and mozilla.org JavaScript developers. iPlanet NES 4.0 is the first known product to use the JavaScript XDR format for compiling and storing JavaScript programs.
