Re^4: Interaction between languages in Parrot

But still, if the PMC is implemented differently for each language (this is what I understood, and it actually makes sense), how is it possible for code written in different languages to communicate (using more than the native types)?

I'm really lost... ;)

The implementation may vary, but the interface will largely be the same. So, for instance, fetching an array element will boil down to the same "method call" on both a PerlArray PMC and an OtherLanguageArray PMC. duff	[reply]
