Ok first my apology to people because I see that many have misunderstood my motivation. So let me be crystal clear. *This IS NOT an effort to make Pharo "super cool". "Look mom Pharo compiles to C++ magically, it runs blazzing fast, it can use C++ libraries with zero efforts" and similar none sense.* Unfortunately I cannot use Pharo as a scripting language that would be awesome but I afraid not possible. Compiling Unreal as a set of dlls is somewhat possible but the problem is that iOS does not allow dlls, iOS support is super crucial for me so that goes out of the window. Embeding Pharo in Unreal is no go either since pharo does not support this. I am not looking into bringing Pharo features to C++. For example I dont care about dynamic types because Unreal depends a lot on templates which are very dynamic, I dont care about Pharo GC because unreal has its own GC, I dont care about Pharo reflection because Unreal also gives C++ reflection features, I dont even care about Pharo live coding because Unreal also allow to hot reload on the fly when you recompile C++ code. WARNING !!! I am not saying that coding C++ in Unreal is better , more dynamic or more live than Pharo. Pharo is awesome. So my thinking is like this, I cannot avoid C++. So since I cannot avoid it then maybe I could try to make it more enjoyable by making it move closer to pharo syntax. That means my implementation will do a lot of nasty compromises, meaning manual memory managment, disallow dynamic types (though later on with the help of templates maybe I can make it more dynamic) , have to include headers etc. So in general write C++ code using something that is close to pharo syntax. My goal is not an ideal solution but a practical solution something that is relative simple to make for a single developer. It wont be a tool you guys will be using because it will be too tied to Unreal anyway and it will contain the nasty parts of C++. The idea will be similar to what Cython is for python, start prototyping in pure python with all the great features it has, then when code works as you expect start inserting static types, manual memory management etc to turn it to C++. I hope now I am much more clear what I aiming for -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Compiling-Pharo-to-C-tp4877775p4877821.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
