Microsoft has made available a test build of its Roslyn compiler as
a service technology at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/roslyn.


The introduction states (at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/hh500769):


"The transition to compilers as services dramatically lowers the
barrier to entry for creating code focused tools and applications. It
creates many opportunities for innovation in areas such as meta-
programming, code generation and transformation, interactive use of
the C# and VB languages, and embedding of C# and VB in domain specific
languages."
