Fwd: virtual machine translation tutorial
Jon Riehl
The following was bounced across pypy-dev, and I thought some people
here might find this interesting. To some extent this validates my
strategy of letting Mython handle the front-end and PyPy handle the
back-end.
It would be interesting to write a little language that targets a
little VM and then use the PyPy JIT stuff to make it go fast. Mython
could generate the bytecode at compile-time and either JIT it then and
there, or wait till run time (we could make a machine independence
claim in the later case).
Thanks,
-Jon

Hello pypy folk,
For the past 2 days, I have struggled with virtual machine translation
and JIT'ing. I relied heavily on the patience of everyone on #pypy, so
I tried to aggregate the accumulated knowledge in a blog post.
Here it is: http://indefinitestudies.org/2010/02/08/creating-a-toy-virtual-machine-with-pypy/
Cheers,
dan
