I seem to remember some months ago that the i_* operations were supposed to be deprecated. I assume that this is no longer the case? If one set of arithmetic vtables is defined in terms of the other set, doesn't that redundancy mean that we should be able to get rid of a large number of vtable functions? I don't think we need to maintain such a large set of VTABLEs, especially when the list is so massively non-orthogonal. --Andrew Whitworth _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
