Hi Folks!
What are the different optimizations Pharo compiler offers? Is there more than a mere message inlining (class, ifTrue:ifFalse:, timesRepeat:, to:do:) ?
As Pharo uses right now the standard or Squeak compiler, this is exactly the same. (And this will be true for the new one, too). MessageNode>>#initialize has: MacroSelectors := #( ifTrue: ifFalse: ifTrue:ifFalse: ifFalse:ifTrue: and: or: whileFalse: whileTrue: whileFalse whileTrue to:do: to:by:do: caseOf: caseOf:otherwise: ifNil: ifNotNil: ifNil:ifNotNil: ifNotNil:ifNil:). What else do you mean? There is of course the special bytecode (send plus...) Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe. Team RMoD.
