Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Is LLVM bytecode the future ?
But what i mean is native code . Anyway , what about compile to binary lenguages like java (it won't run as native one , but you will remove a lot of overhead from the java vm ) , Or simply , a thing like .NET/Mono but at low level . And , of course , thanks for the answer , and your project is very interesting , i'll take a look . 2014-08-25 20:00 GMT+00:00 James wirel...@tampabay.rr.com: Ivan Viso Altamirano ivanviso123 at gmail.com writes: This has little to do with Gentoo , but still it is a interesting debate .

[gentoo-user] Re: Is LLVM bytecode the future ?
Sorry , i accidentally send it . What i wanted to say is that , Theoretically , you can : 1) Native compile statically typed non-native lenguages 2) Recompile binaries for another architecture and even plataforms . 3) Achive a .NET like CLI , but even better . And , notice , that the LLVM garbage collector is a little precary . 2014-08-25 19:45 GMT+00:00 Ivan Viso Altamirano ivanviso...@gmail.com: This has little to do with Gentoo , but still it is a interesting debate .
