Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

Yes Mariano, you are right. The compilation itself should be trivial - in a sense. The hard part is the actual development of the VM. From what I've read, the VM is developed in Smalltalk's Slang, then transpiled to C and then compiled isn't it? -- View this message in context:

Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

BTW, you question is about becoming good at VM development, so actually the compilation of the VM itself is a very very very little part of the whole picture. On Tue, Sep 1, 2015 at 3:37 AM, Esteban Lorenzano wrote: > > On 31 Aug 2015, at 21:41, stepharo

Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

Thanks to all for your responses. I am carefully reading the material presented by you. Ideally I will like to compile the VM into Chrome's NaCL to run an image under Chrome OS. But first things first, as they say. I have to understand the Squeak/Pharo VM. One question, is Mariano's blog still

Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

Hi After the effort made by igor stasenko building the VM is a lot simpler than it used to. Did you try to compile the Pharo VM on your platform? Did you experience some problems? We should probably add a resource page to get started. I do not have the information but we can ask esteban.

[Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

Hi hello to everyone everybody I am interesting in going deeply into VM design, development, optimization, etc. I know a lot of Haskell, a good amount of C and some languages that use VM like Python, Lua and Pharo of course. What would be a road map (books, articles, code to read) to understand

Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

I've already read those blogs. There are lots of useful information - it seems - but what I want is a head start, something that starts from zero but for someone who has programming knowledge. I will definitely read the blue book. That goes first! Any more sources, indications? TYVM ichiro --

Re: [Pharo-users] Becoming good at VM development

Hi Ichiro, there are a bunch of posts in Mariano Martinez Peck's blog named journey through the VM, done some years ago. He writes about anything related to the VM, how to build it, class format, bytecodes, detailed description of the CompiledMethod class, etc. You can find the first post here:
