Anyone having used D to build system-level extensions for Pharo?
TIA, Phil |
From a basic search it appears that D can generate dynamically linked libraries (DLL , SO, etc) which will be the easiest way to extend pharo using D. However from a very basic search I did it looks like generating dynamically linked libraries with D is not as straightforward as someone would expect. http://forum.dlang.org/thread/k3vfm9$1tq$1@... here is a blog post about what nim is http://hookrace.net/blog/what-is-special-about-nim/ http://goran.krampe.se/2014/11/03/squeak-to-nim/

A a C++ developer, I think I can better relate to D. Yeah, Nim is nice. I asked about the PyBridge as well (as there is in OpenQwaq|Terf) but no response from Ron so far. We need more bridges, that's my long term play. Some decent cash is coming my way, so I hope that I'll be able to devote more time to these projects. That's always the same story, cash buys time...

Fair enough Whats that PyBridge you talking about ? First time I hear that.

This is PyBridge https://github.com/itsmeront/openqwaq/blob/master/qwaqvm/platforms/Cross/plugins/PyBridge/PyBridge.h Useful for sure, even in 32 bits. Phil On Sun, Dec 13, 2015 at 1:07 PM, Dimitris Chloupis <[hidden email]> wrote:

Ah ok so this is the bridge that OpenQwaq uses to communicate with Python, interesting. I was wondering if I could use this bridge when people mentioned openQwaq to me , I decided not to try because I could not figure out how it worked but now with your link its all clear. With your links you finally answer whether PyBridge would have ben a viable solution for my case.
