Hi everyone,
Prompted by Geoff Young and Jeff Horwitz, I've written and checked in
pure Parrot ports of Test::Builder and Test::Builder::Tester. They're
complete enough to work, though they're missing a couple of nice
features I haven't figured out how to add yet.
The next goal is to port Test::
The 'no_diag' behavior of Test::More has been made a Test::Builder method.
It should have been one in the first place.
"use Test::More 'no_diag'" has been deprecated. I don't want the behavior
going forward into Test::Builder::Module. Instead, use the no_diag()
method of Test::Builder to control
Mark,
To add to what I explained re: Class objects.
We have instance methods and class methods now in Perl 6, as well as
instance attributes and class attributes. The way I view Class objects
are as such:
A Class object is to class methods as an instance is to instance
methods.

As regards to the benefits over ActivePerl, yes, PXPerl is faster for

Not being able to find where the 'Signal 1' message was coming from,
I've updated cygwin and sure enough the signal test passes now ..
Anyone done any work on parsing Java interface definitions?
And, ideally, translating them into roughly equivalent Perl 6?

Supposedly it's built with Intel C compiler, so it's a bit faster;
also you can choose among VC++, GCC and Intel C to compile further

Strangely enough, timer, which I thought was failing last night, seems
