I just tested Pharo 1.4 One-Click with you new binary plugin, after loading the latest Zn, Zdc and Zinc-Zodiac packages and all tests are green.

I understand your example below and the fact that closure environment is allocated on the heap via an array to be independent of the activation context but I do not get why consing the local environment to be one current one is wrong. (define (%apply proc largs) (cond ((%primitive? proc) (%apply-internal proc largs)) ((%closure? proc) (%apply-closure proc largs)) (else (error "Bad ! Un-apply-able object !" proc)))) (define (%apply-closure proc largs) ;; apply a closure: evaluate proc body in ;; extended the closure environment with ;; proc arguments and largs (%eval (%closure-body proc) (%extend-env (%closure-args proc) largs (%closure-env proc)))) (define (%eval-lambda expr env) ;; lambda in Scheme captures the environment at compile time ;; expr = ((x) (+ x 2)) (%make-closure (car expr) (cadr expr) env)) > You need to consider how to implement this example: > > Object subclass: #AbstractSuperclass > > AbstractSuperclass>>computeV > | v | > v := 0. > self maybeCapture: [v := v + 1. v]. > ^self maybeBlock: v > > AbstractSuperclass subclass: #CaptureBlock > instanceVariableNames: 'block' > > CaptureBlock>>maybeCapture: aBlock > block := aBlock > > CaptureBlock>>maybeBlock: value > ^block > > AbstractSubclass subclass: #DontCaptureBlock > > DontCaptureBlock>>maybeCapture: aBlock > > DontCaptureBlock>>maybeBlock: value > ^value > > > Then > | thingOne thingTwo | > thingOne := CaptureBlock computeV. > thingTwo := DontCaptureBlock computeV. > (1 to: 10) collect: [:ignore| { thingOne value. thingTwo value }] > > should answer > #((1 0) (2 0) (3 0) ... (10 0)) if 0 value returns 0? yes. (it confused me for a while). > right? So where does the l-value for v in computeV live? Iy must be an l-value since it is assigned to in the block in computeV. It must outlive the activation of computeV since CaptureBlock>maybeCapture: captures the block and CaptureBlock>>maybeBlock: answers it and the doit evaluates it. If it lives on the stack of the activation of computeV then there is no problem in a Context VM, but in a VM that maps activations to stack frames something special (and slow) has to happen when returning from computeV. However, if the l-value lives in a separate Array (as it does in my VisualWorks and Squeak closure implementations, and as happens in some Lisp implementations), nothing special has to happen. The block refers to the Array, *not* to the activation of computeV. > > Make sense now? Yes you allocate on the heap closure binding to be orthogonal to activation context. I will reread your blog now. Stef
