Hello all,
I have been away for a while. I started writing my own version of
parrot (or at least chunks of it) so I can get a feel for the current
parrot internals. I have learned a lot and now realize why some things
were done the way they were.
I am on memory management now and my impleme
nfigure::Data methods to query and dump data.
The revisions have only been tested on winXP using VC++ and activestate
perl 5.6.1.
Looking forward to you comments,
Erik Lechak

with no dot? Does it have to
do with 'hello.lib' for windows and 'libhello.a' for linux?
Thanks,
Erik

Well I hope there are some interested parties out there for this. The
new and improved "getting started" guide should be ready in pod by
Thursday. I have added more content and tried to incorporate the
suggestions that everyone gave to me. The document is growing as I
learn more. I have t
Hello all,
While writing the "getting started" guide, I was playing with the tests.
(I am on Windows XP). I noticed that the src tests fail or are not
even run for Win32.
I tinkered with it for a while and got some of the tests to pass. It
turns out there was a linking problem. The libpa

I downloaded version 1.2 of WinCVS and that cvs.exe supports pserver. I
just wanted to ensure that the instructions I give on the guide are
accurate. Now I specify the 1.2 version in

Hi,
Well here it is, my first attempt at a "getting started" guide. It's
not ready for public consumption, but I would like to hear some
feedback. The later sections are blank or contain notes in a not nice
format. As time moves on and I learn more, I expect the guide to fill
up. It's ta
I had a response all typed up, but I erased it. I just want to learn
enough so I can start coding, and these pod conversations are just
getting in my way, and I don't want to waste the Parrot communities time
or bandwidth with my trivial issues. Your time is much more valuable
getting perl6

Thanks for the feedback,
Pod it is!
I will get back to work on the "getting started" guide.
Thanks again,

te my time on it and get back to the
"getting started guide".
I am currently on a windows machine and have not tried the demo on my
linux box yet. So I don't know how it will run under anything other
than windows.
Please excuse the use of the optomistic name ParrotDoc.
Thanks,
vadoc-like html reference. Or maybe I'm
just dreaming.
Please go easy on me for not liking pod.
Thanks,
