If span can generate PIR that'll run on a base parrot interpreter, ...
Currently custom opcodes and an all-in-one PMC, the object - IIRC. But ...
... I'd love to get some to check in as part of the test suite.
... that would be really great.
I'm currently testing the incremental garbage collector (1/1794 failed - but that one was ok 1 hour ago ;) - Anyway, what I see is an almost total lack of more complex code in the test suite.
We need more tests. Especially OO.
- t/library/dumper.t is a good beginning and in CVS
- md5.t (and the whole md5 stuff) was almost done - I've here a slightly fixed (uses stat) version that runs the md5.t that was in the original patch.
If Nick Glencross doesn't complain, I'll put that code in. It's not OO but a nice test.
- what else?
If you have some OO code around, please make a test out of it and send it in.
Thanks, leo
