Maybe someone wants to experiment a bit, if it compiles Parrot.
Here's another thought...

Ciao Mattia,
thanks for your reply. I read a bit about ABI and I guess it's
something I only want to touch with a long pole, that pole being an
extra layer of indirection I initially hoped to be able to avoid.
I like the idea of leveraging the wxPerl XS files. Any comments on why

Hi all,
I've recently decided to try to hook up the wxWidgets GUI library with
parrot and Pugs. I haven't dabbled much with parrot yet so I consider
this a good way to learn more :-).
Right at the start, I ran into a curious problem loading the Wx
libraries with loadlib. (I'm on Mac OS X 10.4, b

I guess the proper term would be class library. The path is only where
you look for the libraries :).
It doesn't seem to be the Perl way to limit yourself to one option
only ("There's more than one way to do it"). Of course we wouldn't
want five different implementations of Un
Shouldn't it be the

No, it shouldn't. Meditate about it again and you will be enlightened.

Thanks for the clarification. Does that mean that a mechanism for
dynamic PMCs would automatically allow them to be written in Parrot
also (and not only load binary libs)?

I don't pretend that I fully understand what dynamic classes are
about, but Dan's suggestions made it a lot clearer to me. This seems
like one possible way to attach something like wxWindows to parrot.
I'm wondering about one thing, however:
We build classes as shared libraries, unless otherwise n
to link with python, we should probably write our own parser.[1]
Just use Perl 6 to write it :). Ooops... looks like a chicken-and-egg
problem...

The easiest way isn't avaialble yet. That is custom dynamically loaded
PMCs (classes) representing some functionality.
Hmm... then I think I misunderstood something. I thought PMCs are
only used for language-specific data types (e.g. "PerlScalar",
"PythonString") that are part of the Parrot core a

Whoops. Just to clarify: It would be sweet to have an interface for
wxWindows in Parrot -- not the official endorsement.
And let me try to formulate a nice and clear que
Actually, I was the one mentioning it in a completely offhand remark
in some discussion about the future of wxWindows ;-).
