<div dir="ltr">Hi Roni, Hi Ryan,<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"> in the below you, Roni, added extBFirstZero. As far as I can tell this breaks the newspeak (and Cadence (*)) VM. I don't quite see the purpose of extBFirstZero and urgently need to restore the Newspeak and Cadence VMs. So forgive me but I'm going to revert that part of the changes. It has caused me to misdiagnose the problems with extPushInteger and genExtUnconditionalJump. These I'll revert too. If this breaks Lowcode then let's collaborate on developing a fix for Lowcode that doesn't break Newspeak and Cadence VMs. But it's a priority of mine (they pay for my work) to keep these VMs working.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">(*) The Cadence VM is a Newspeak VM that does not enforce access control.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 8, 2016 at 9:53 AM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:commits@source.squeak.org" target="_blank">commits@source.squeak.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><br>

Integration of Lowcode.<br>
<br>
Lowcode is an extended bytecode set that is encoded using the inline primitive facility from the SistaV1 bytecode set.<br>
<br>
Building a VM with Lowcode requires the following VMMaker options:<br>
<br>
SistaVM true<br>
LowcodeVM true<br>
MULTIPLEBYTECODESETS true<br>
bytecodeTableInitializer initializeBytecodeTableForSque<wbr>akV3PlusClosuresSistaV1Hybrid<br>

<br>
In addition to these huge changes in the VM, Lowcode has some dependencies in some C headers with the inline FFI callout glue, and additional sqMemoryAccess.h macros. I will send a patch for inclusion into the OpenSmalltalk VM C sources.<br>
