Another question about pdd15...: If I'm in a different HLL namespace (e.g., via a .HLL directive), how do I get a PMC class from the 'parrot' HLL namespace?
Here is an example (which obviously won't work): I'm creating a 'perl6;Str' class and then attempting to add (parrot's) String class as a parent. But of course the constant 'String' here refers to the wrong HLL namespace: $ cat z.pir .HLL "perl6", "" .namespace [ "" ] .sub main :main # create 'Str' class $P1 = new 'Class' $P1.'name'('Str') # add parrot;String PMC as a parent class $P2 = get_class 'String' addparent $P1, $P2 .end $ ./parrot z.pir Class 'String' doesn't exist current instr.: 'perl6;;main' pc 12 (z.pir:11) $ Of course, I'm mostly interested in knowing what the answer "should be", but I'm also interested in what "works today".
