Disusing with a friend, he asked me if Squeak was completely written in itself (actually, SLANG). I think (I am not sure) that some parts of the VM as Interpreter, ObjectMemory, and most primitives are written in SLANG and then using VMMaker I can convert from that to C. Ok.....but...I think I heard that there are primitives that are directly written in C (not SLANG, no translation). Is this true ?<br>
<br>If true, how can be that addressed ? where is the C code of that? because, I take VMMaker, I convert to C, then compile, install and I have a working VM. So...that C code must come somewhere...where is it ? how can I know if a primitive is written in SLANG or directly in C?<br>
<br>I hope someone can help this newbie :)<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br><br>Mariano<br><br><br>
