Thanks, is it possible for julia to avoid generating jl_value_t
When I use a scalar Int64 julia generates code with i64 as input and no
jl_value_t appears. is it possible to do the same with arrays?
Array{Float32,2} genrates a jl_value_t? Is there an array type that can
do this? For example fixed arrays?
Finally, is this features planned to be supported if julia statically
compiles?
Thanks
