This is what I hope to do, in terms of Ruby -> Ruby IR (CFG) -> Janino AST -> bytecode. To be honest, I would also appreciate things like register (local var) allocation, but for debugging sanity we'll probably have to hand-select local variables anway. - Charlie -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
