We are trying to package it to load in the latest pharo.
Good - but whats the state of support for the major platforms? (AFAIK John had it working on Mac).
So far we cannot load it on mac. I'm moving the not loading examples into another packages so that we can at least load.
For instance on Windows a good pharo foreign interface is crucial for commercial value (accessing Win32API/COM/.NET/third party).
Well, it depends on windows people :). Now I wish and open that there will be support
Whats the plan regarding Alien? Intended for the 1.0 release or later? Loadable package or included within the standard image?
for now loadable package
Will it be a merge of FFI and Alien, or is Alien good enough?
I do not know but from eliot told me Alien is good enough. People may build on top of it better support to have higher level to bridge with dll (a bit like dllcc in VW).
Thx Torsten
