A .net wrapper for Google App Engine?

Question

Does anyone know of a .net wrapper around either python or java Google App Engine services?

Any help appreciated // :)

Answer 1

I don't believe this is even conceivable (if I understand what you're asking about): App Engine will run code on a Python virtual machine or a Java one, never on a .NET one, so where would this "wrapper" run? If your need is for .NET "in the cloud", consider Azure (you could run .NET on Amazon Web Services, I guess, given AWS's flexibility -- but if you're married to MS's platform anyway, why not use their cloud...?).

Answer 2

I don't think it's impossible to run .net on GAE. At least, it's not impossible to run something that was generated from .net sources or interprets them at runtime. Just think about Ruby or Python, both work on the JMV (using JRuby and Jython). You'll probably have to look for something similar or try to cross-compile you .net code to Java class files.

Here is a related question: Why doesn’t Sun do a C# to Java byte code compiler?. Some People suggest to use JaCIL or jsc. I didn't try those myself, but I'd bet you'll have to get yourself dirty to get something work.

Here is an example of a .net web service running on GAE - http://5.latest.jsc-project.appspot.com/Service1.asmx.
