Where is the general MMD mechanism?
Um... I think you're thinking of operator overloading, which in Parrot actually does use the MMD facility under the hood, but MMD is nominally a separate facility. You should glance at the PDDs, as they have far more detail than I'm aware of. > Will the Perl 6 MMD be directly implemented in Parrot or on top of it? > I guess Parrot needs to do it for language interoperability, right? I would expect so, yes..... -- â 781-324-3772 â [EMAIL PROTECTED] â http://www.ajs.com/~ajs
