I've just gone through the default PMCs built with the system, and here's what
I've found. The following PMCs are unused:
delegate - unused, appears to be the previous version of PMCProxy
deleg_pmc - unused, appears to be the previous version of PMCProxy
Enumerate - unused, specialization of Iterator
Intlist - unused
MultiArray - (unused) a multidimensional array
Pair - key/value mapping (unused)
Pointer - represents a pointer (unused)
The following PMCs could also be removed, with a bit of cleverness:
Closure - unused?
Random - access to random numbers (Cardinal; use Math/Random.pir
instead?)
Ref - reference to a PMC (mostly unused, though look at default and
undef)
Sarray - a subroutine parameter array (mostly unused -- see
global_setup.c)
TQueue - only used in Cardinal
I only looked through the languages currently in the repository, so anything
that's left recently may not reflect reality here. I recommend deprecating
them all before the next release.
