thanks I am looking at it is this relevant to pharo ? --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visitor_pattern
Sure if I can stay in pharo while coding in C/C++ then why not ? Even if I still have to do work outside pharo. The problem is beginners like me do not realize the potential of their tools because of lack of experience, so its more likely I give up than you who you are a much more experienced pharoer than me. Afterall Neo needed Morpheas to show him that he is the chosen one ;) I invested a year of my life in pharo and I would love to invest a lot more and benefit back the community. This way everyone is a winner. Also Thierry mentioned Ring which led me to this http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/archives/papers/Uqui11a-RingJournalPaper-CSSJournal.pdf from the looks of it is a source code analyzer ? much to study , a lot of potential and another happy Pharo user :) On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 3:02 PM, p...@highoctane.be <p...@highoctane.be> wrote: > On Mon, Sep 15, 2014 at 1:39 PM, kilon alios <kilon.al...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> WOW this CCodeGenerator is great , I have downloaded it and tried the >> example and it generated the 'generated.c" file .
