Allowing push/pop across sub calls

2006-02-22 Thread Bob Rogers
The good news is that the attached patch makes this work. The bad news is that it also breaks PGE, albeit in a small way. Six of the "" tests (mostly, but not exclusively, involving "") in t/compilers/pge/p6rules/builtins.t seem to go into an infinite loop. I have been unable to figure this o

As for not testing suite at all, I'm not sure that's cause for an UNKNOWN, probably something else. If you see an UNKNOWN in CPAN test reports, it means that 'make test' returned "No tests defined". This is the result of no test suite at all. It should be caught, and may be cover by point 2.

Just to add my 2 cents here, I've always felt that there should be basic primitives provided, and the HLL can take care of the rest. Technically the low-level IO routines don't have to know about encoding or compression schemes at all. A VM provides the building blocks, and you can add whatever

Lua : a big step

2006-02-22 Thread François PERRAD
In the last days, Lua (on Parrot) made a big step : - all constructs (statements & functions) of the core language are supported - lexical scoping - closures & iterators are supported - a large subset of the standard libraries is implemented - coroutines support via a library (not yet working) -
