Producer

Rick Hedin
I asked a few days ago whether the SPiCE program for converting a Smalltalk program to C was available.  Apparently, it's not.  Thanks, Michael Haupt, for the info.
 
The other, less complete but still interesting, solution is Producer, by Brad Cox and Kurt Schmucker.  Is that one available somewhere to be adopted and perhaps extended?
 
 
            Regards,
 
            Rick

there is something here (Google helped):

... but Producer translates Smalltalk-80 to Objective-C. I'm not sure
this is what you need.

Best,

Michael

It might be helpful since gcc covers Objective-C as well.
However, don't underestimate the difficulties and scope of such a port.
This is definitely something that you should do when you're experienced
both with the code you're translating and the translation machinery. And
you should have some spare time to burn, as well...

Cheers,
