For nativeBoost have a look at the tutorial to use NB to bind X11
https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoForTheEnterprise/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/NativeBoost/NativeBoost.pier.html
I'm sorry but if igor does not write documentation, it takes far too
much energy from me to understand
and write something. It would be so much better if people with the
knowledge would write.

I found an old Smalltalk/V imagine from 2000 and tracked down how I
was able add calls to Windows DLLs and to add my own. It was in the
class DynamicLinkLibrary and its subclasses, e. g., a call to the
GDIDLL to draw a Bezier spline (which I believe I added) was:
bezierTo: hDC lpPoints: anLPPOINT count: anInt
<api: PolyBezierTo ulong struct ulong boolean>
^self invalidArgument
I added by own DLL to do matrix transformations that was written in
ASSEMBLER to optimized the floating point processor pipelining (a
start operation every cycle while it took 3 cycles to complete) and it
performed about 15% better.
I have not found anything similar in Pharo, but it must if external
libraries are used. NativeBoost seems to come close, but I cannot find
any documentation. Can someone point me to some documentation, code,
anything? It is greatly appreciated.
