Atilla's work looks very much how Groovy used to work in 1.0 till 1.5. The upcoming 1.6 is going away from a call oriented MOP to a request based MOP. That means we request a callable object and then execute the call itself directly from the call site. theoretically this can be done with Atilla's MOP too, but we would have to use the get method to get something callable and then call it... only that we need to transport information like caller, callee, arguments and of course methodname. And I am not sure how that would be done. Of course suppporting Atilla's MOP as an interface to Groovy's MOP is a different story, since we can write a bunch of adapter classes and be done withit. Of course the use is then "limited" to interlanguage calls bye Jochen -- Jochen "blackdrag" Theodorou The Groovy Project Tech Lead (http://groovy.codehaus.org) http://blackdragsview.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ mlvm-dev mailing list mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
