actually binary, dispatch is based on (left, right) operands. > They are ternary to prevent a final copy or conversion of the result to the > target register. Where is the general MMD mechanism? No. The destination has currently to exist. But I'll very likely put in variants that create the destination. Currently a static 2-dimensional MMD table is used. This will be replaced by a dynamic lookup and caching. > Will the Perl 6 MMD be directly implemented in Parrot or on top of it? > I guess Parrot needs to do it for language interoperability, right? Yep. leo
