Hi Andreas,
I have a couple of questions on the status of the callbacks support code.
One of the projects we'd like to propose for the Summer of Code is adding native widgets bindings, starting with GTK widgets. But for that to work, we'd like to have a callbacks-enabled VM.
Will the callbacks support code be integrated in the main VM code soon? If so, will it be possible to have callbacks-enabled VMs available before the start of the Summer of Code (that is, before June)?
Thanks,
Giovanni

While this may be helpful, it is most certainly not a requirement.

I don't know what Tim's plans are for integrating these changes into VMMaker. Other than that there is very little change required.

I have a set of VMs (Qwaq VMs to be specific; for use with Qwaq products) which support it already; if that were of any help I think I could convince my CEO to lend you a couple of those for the time being.
Cheers, - Andreas
I think you mean the opposite. The FFI is certainly not optimized for speed ;-)

Have a look at the FFI classes. They are optimized for speed not compatibility though...
