Since I'm working on a similar project, I read your code with great interest. If my understanding is correct, you are writing the Euphoria evaluator in Euphoria, and emitting Java code. You state that speed is an issue, so wouldn't it make more sense to write the Euphoria interpreter in C, and emit Java code, or Java bytecode? I'm new to both Java and Euphoria, so I'm probably just emitting nonsense. Please keep us informed as to the progress of the Eu/Java translator.
