Tom Shackell is developing a simple bytecode reflection API to be
implemented in the yhc compiler. This will allow the transmission of
arbitrary function code across the network for execution on a remote
machine, with the results fed back to the calling machine.
e.g.
encodeF :: (a->b) -> Bytecode (a->b)
dynload :: Bytecode (a->b) -> (a->b)
Work in progress... There are doubtless lots of security issues here,
not least type safety....
Regards,
Malcolm
