It's quite an impressive breadth of material that he covers; eleven (11) interpreters and (2) compilers. Some parts are obviously dated, but there is a new French ed. out just this month, so hopefully for those of us French impaired readers, they'll have an English translation out in less than the two years it took them last go around. Anyway, not only are some of the concepts a bit out of touch with current research, but the programs are written in a CLOS like system called Meroonet, with the last update in 1993. There is a much more robust version called Meroon that actually was ported to MzScheme v50 circa 1998. Anyway, I pulled them both off the net to see if I could easily port them to v360'ish MzScheme. Unfortunately, he makes heavy use of defmacro which makes it a nightmare to think about porting if I can find an easier route. That's when I remembered Swindle had a CLOS like Object system. So I spent the afternoon looking it over. However, I didn't find any example programs. I learn best from a good example along with the documentation to pick it apart. Is it possible that someone has any example Swindle OO files that make use of generic methods? Queinnec makes use of generics extensively. In return for any example code that gets me off the ground at mimicking Meroonet, I'll gladly post the port on PlaneT so others can use it when working through the text.
