Just Too Late (JTL) compilation
This seems like an interesting possibility for MacRuby... http://etoileos.com/news/archive/2009/07/23/2218/ -r -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm Rich Morin http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/resume rdm@cfcl.com http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/weblog +1 650-873-7841 Technical editing and writing, programming, and web development
Hi Rich, Interesting. Can you point us to any other details about LanguageKit? http://www.freshports.org/lang/etoile-languagekit/
LanguageKit is a compiler kit built on top of LLVM for creating dynamic language implementations using an Objective-C runtime for the object model. This is used by SmalltalkKit, implementing Etoile's Pragmatic Smalltalk, a Smalltalk JIT compiler which generates code binary-compatible with Objective-C, allowing classes to be written in a mixture of Smalltalk and Objective-C.

The article I mentioned was listed on Hacker News (http://news.ycombinator.com/). Here is the discussion: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=724882 Aside from that, I think you'll have to ask Google and/or contact the developer(s). -r -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm Rich Morin http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/resume rdm@cfcl.com http://www.cfcl.com/rdm/weblog +1 650-873-7841 Technical editing and writing, programming, and web development
I had the exact same thought but I preferred to work on AOT compilation first. Technically we could implement this idea easily once the AOT compiler is complete. Laurent On Jul 27, 2009, at 2:25 AM, Rich Morin wrote:
