Re: [pypy-dev] lltype.Signed type in ThreadLocalReference

Hi Manuel, I attempted to change it to OBJECTPTR in my local repo and it worked. So I will see how it go I guess… Thanks for the reply. Cheers, John Zhang -- John Zhang Research Assistant Programming Languages, Design & Implementa

[pypy-dev] lltype.Signed type in ThreadLocalReference
