My compromise would be to disable the GUI version of the VM. How can I compile a VM with the --headless setting hardcoded? Where to start? Esteban A. Maringolo On Fri, Sep 4, 2020 at 2:39 PM Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:
Thanks James
This is pretty much the right questions :) And I would love to have money to solve the problems the way I would like but life is a compromise.

Hi Trygve,
Iâm not sure what you mean by this question.
Are you asking, âIs it acceptable to have code that relies on reflection in order to operate properly?â To this question I would answer âyesâ since some things are easier to do using reflection.
Or are you asking, âWould it be better to not have FFI at all until it can be implemented without reflection?â To this question I would answer ânoâ since people that donât want reflection can choose to forego features that require it.
Or are you asking, âWould it be nice if someone could do the work to implement FFI without reflection?â To this question I would answer âyes.â Unfortunately, there is a cost involved.
So were you asking one of those questions or something else?
James
