Hi,<br>
I'm trying to compile new IA32ABI plugin, who should work with new Threaded FFI.<br>
As everybody requested, I'm trying to compile this plugin as an external plugin, and for that reason I need variable<br>
<br>
sqInt inIOProcessEvents;<br>
<br>
to be<br>
<br>
EXPORT(sqInt) inIOProcessEvents;<br>
<br>
...how can I modify VMMaker to ensure this?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Um, are you sure you need to. If you have a look at <a href="http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog">http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog</a> r2378 you'll see that inIOProcessEvents is declared in cointerpmt.c and that IA32ABI.c imports it via </div>
<div><br></div><div>src/plugins/IA32ABI/IA32ABI.c: { extern int inIOProcessEvents; address = (sqInt)&inIOProcessEvents; }</div><div><br></div><div>Doesn't that work?</div><div><br></div><div>best,</div><div>Eliot</div>

I tried touching StackInterpreter>>#mustBeGlobal:, but that generates bad code on gcc3x-cointerpmt.c (it creates GIV(inIOProcessEvents) calls and that does not work)<br>
<br>
so... any idea?<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
