[pypy-dev] In RPython, what is meant by 'live code objects'?

Hey all, When the RPython receives the code objects, are all the objects that the interpreter would push and pop on the stack already present? Or does the abstract interpreter handle creating those objects as well? In other words, is interpretation abstract from the start of the program to the

Re: [pypy-dev] Concerning bounded number of classes created

So at no point reachable from the entry_point (or is it run?) of the program can you create classes and functions? Alex On Dec 9, 2011, at 8:18 PM, Benjamin Peterson wrote: > 2011/12/9 Alexander Golec : >> Hey all, >> >> Sorry to keep asking questions on the mailin

[pypy-dev] Concerning bounded number of classes created

Hey all, Sorry to keep asking questions on the mailing list, but I've been doing my semester research project on PyPy, and my deadline is beginning to loom... I have a question concerning what I think is a conflict between the RPython coding guide and the 2005 EU paper. The paper states: Our

once. If I'm not mistaken, the PyPy VM uses a superset of the CPython bytecodes. Does that mean that RPython can perform translation either on bytecodes emitted by CPython or by PyPy? Alex On Dec 9, 2011, at 7:17 PM, Benjamin Peterson wrote: > 2011/12/9 Alexander Golec : >> I g

Re: [pypy-dev] Could someone give me an idea of what is where with RPython?

Hi Armin, Thanks for the answer, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this. I'm reading about object spaces, and I keep wondering how do the object spaces find their way into the CPython interpreter. In other words, since there is an element of partial initialization to the transl

[pypy-dev] Could someone give me an idea of what is where with RPython?

Hey all, I have the following conception of the RPython toolchain: - RPython translator is written in RPython, meaning it can be interpreted by CPython, and then run as a standalone executable once translated - The translator runs the standard interpreter on the input program. - The input p

[pypy-dev] How are namespaces implemented in rpython?

Hey all, I'm preparing a presentation for Alfred Aho at Columbia, and I'd like to ask how are namespaces translated during the translation phase. Are they implemented dynamically, or are they actually compiled down to C? Alex ___ pypy-dev mailing list

Re: [pypy-dev] Question about pypy

Thanks for this point. I think this tied together my understanding of the the purpose of rpython as a framework. Where is the distinction between rpython as a language and rpython as a compiler generator? I presume this is covered in the 'Compiling Dynamic Language Implementations' paper? Alex

[pypy-dev] Question about pypy

Hi all, I'm a student at Columbia University, and I'm taking a graduate course with Alfred Aho, the author of the dragon book, on advanced compilers techniques. I've been researching the pypy project in general, and rpython in particular, and I'd like to ask you guys for some feedback on the cu
