C++ could make C++ quite easily, especially if using a tool like ANTLR. But whatever the means, it is a sad state that C++ doesn't have a C++ interpreter or a C++ runtime. Perhaps the work done on Boost.Wave could be used to make it.
I think you MASSIVELY underestimate the complexity of implementing C++. The best current attempt I'm aware of is the clang project ( http://clang.llvm.org/ ) which is aiming to produce a BSD-licensed C++ front-end of the LLVM project. They are making very good progress through a very difficult piece of work, and I'm sure would be happy with any help anyone might offer. Chris
