 1 | ## Scala-Virtualized
 2 | 
 3 | Scala-Virtualized is an experimental branch of the Scala compiler and standard library that contains a few additions to provide even better support for embedded DSLs (we call that *language virtualization*).
 4 | 
 5 | The key features are as follows:
 6 | 
 7 | - overloadable while-loops, if-then-else statements, object construction, etc. (not only for-comprehensions)
 8 | - extension methods: define new infix-methods on existing types (pimp-my-library with less boilerplate)
 9 | 
10 | Further descriptions and examples are available on the [Scala-Virtualized Wiki](http://github.com/tiarkrompf/scala-virtualized/wiki). 
11 | 
12 | An accompanying technial paper has even more in-depth information: [pdf preprint](http://lampwww.epfl.ch/~amin/pub/hosc2013.pdf), [published version](http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10990-013-9096-9).

14 | Tutorial source code is available at [github.com/adriaanm/scala-virtualized-tutorial](https://github.com/adriaanm/scala-virtualized-tutorial).
15 | 
16 | ## How to Use it
17 | 
18 | Here is a sample `build.sbt` file for use with the Simple Build Tool (SBT):
19 | 
20 |     name := "My Scala-Virtualized Project"
21 |     version := "1.0"
22 |     scalaVersion := "2.11.2"
23 |     scalaOrganization := "org.scala-lang.virtualized"
24 | 
25 | Releases of Scala-Virtualized are binary compatible with the corresponding regular Scala release.
26 | 
27 | Note: The code in this repository is no longer up to date and kept for archival purposes only. Up-to-date sources live in branch `topic-virt` [here](https://github.com/namin/scala/tree/topic-virt).
