Hi all, I've held off on adding Parrot::Embed to the Parrot repository, pending satisfactory answers to a few questions. I have ideas, but I'd really love to get input from any or all of Bernhard, Jerry, Will, Leo, and Chip. This one's a bit weird, so I want to disrupt life as little as possi

[Proposed PATCH lib/Parrot/Test/Embedded.pm] Use Embedded Interpreter for PIR Tests

2006-07-31 Thread chromatic
Hi all, Here's a patch for discussion. It adds a new test module that uses a Parrot embedded in Perl 5 to run pir_output_*() tests. It's a bit fragile and depends on Embed::Parrot (which I haven't checked in yet). I'm just posting it here to document that it exists and works in some cases, a

[svn ci] r13703: Start fixing the exit_handler mess - API change

2006-07-31 Thread Leopold Toetsch
This is an incompative API change: * exit_handlers take now officially an Interp* argument (as opposed to the silent usage of the void*arg as interp) * Parrot_on_exit and Parrot_exit likewise * get rid of global exit_handler_list, it's now an interpreter field * adjust a lot of code and src test
