Dear Marc,
Just curious, Gambit's JS backend, it uses the JS VM:s GC right -
How do you make the SCM to JS object mapping deliver that?
I mean, say, a cons cell, a vector, a closure, a firstclass continuation
and a stack frame, about how are those mapped to JS objects as for the JS
VM to be able to GC them just as it does with ordinary values?
- Gambit uses numbers for object references ordinarily, so I guess the
object mapping has been done deeper than that, so that actual JS object
references are used as SCM object references by the JS backend.
Thanks,
Mikael
