A small addition to the V8.0 content

Postby wembley » Fri Aug 08, 2008 11:35 am

Seaside work is spawing several useful bits of code as a side effect of either doing the port from Squeak or needing tools.

One of the side effects came out of my need to look at bytecodes to see what was going on "under the covers". So I ported our VMBuilder Bytecode Browser into EtTools for V8.0:

Very cool. Here's hoping the educational value will result in enough increased productivity to offset all the time I will spend checking out the bytecodes just to see how things work.

Chad -

To keep you productive, we will obfuscate the way to enable the bytecode browser ;-)
