What about a preprocessor like the Java preprocessors ? The Truffle project relies heavily on that for high performance Java and it's quite nice. It's difficult to do that in Smalltalk right now. I think if you want to do what are asking for you just need to write a bytecode compiler extension.

Re: [Pharo-users] Math Ontologie on Pharo 3.0

What kind of bug do you have with accent ? Do you have a stack trace ? More importantly, can you give us a reproducible case ? I will investigate tomorrow if you have a reproducible case to check if this is due to Opal. It may also be recent changes related to fonts. 2014-09-08 21:07 GMT+02:00

Re: [Pharo-users] FFI with compile flags

I don't understand, do you want to compile your library using FFI or do you want to bind a library compiled your way with FFI ? If you want to compile your library using FFI, then use OSProcess to run the compilation line you showed. If you want to bind a library compiled your way with FFI, the

Well the method with the code you give was compiled without any problem in my image (Pharo #30851 with FFI loaded with configuration browser as explained in the other thread). Perhaps this is related to your bug in the other thread where you were (probably) missing a package ? 2014-07-10

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo by visualization: Adding a title to a Roassal map visualization

Hum I use the old version of roassal not the new one but I think you can replace mapa := RTMetricMap new by: mapa := RTMetricMap titled: 'myTitle'. Does it work ? Else perhaps mapa := RTMetricMap new title: 'myTitle' ?? 2014-06-24 19:57 GMT+02:00 Offray Vladimir Luna Cárdenas

Re: [Pharo-users] AST method copyInContext:

By looking at the senders of #copyInContext:, I believe it is used in RBStringReplaceRule. By looking at this rule class comment, I believe it replaces a matched tree with another tree. So I guess copyInContext: is used to replace a subtree of the AST by another tree. Regards, Clement

Hello, To do what you want, there are 3 options: - using NativeBoost - using FFI from the VM - compiling your dll as part of the vm (VM plugin) NativeBoost is clearly the best option because it is the fastest, it is mostly implemented in the image so you can look at the code and it is by default
