I met J-C. Arnaud in Rennes yesterday and he told me I should try the Opal compiler. So, how do I load Opal in a Pharo 1.4 image ?
I think it is there: http://www.squeaksource.com/OpalCompiler
There is a problem: this is not finished. The problem is that it is not really useful right now.
As I understand (stop me if i am wrong) , it doesn't really matters, the idea is to put annotation on an ast for inject code. I think it is usable in state for that use. Maybe not for full remplacement of the current compiler. But i thinks, it is painless to implement with opal comparing to the energy needed for change the old one.
The problem is that the code generated should be correct... its almost there... some days...
I understand but the logic itself will not change. The design is done. The used case too. But it is not perfect but you put a lot of energy on it. M. Goubier want to to port its code, i think it should try, and if some problem happen raise the issue. Instead to try and spend week on the old compiler. The experiment match perfectly with the opal Spirit. And we have someone motivated to perform a experiment on Opal, don't say no.
