I've been trying to learn more about the calling and argument conversion process today by stepping through the code with ddd/gdb. I am learning some things but I have to admit it is pretty difficult with all the preprocessor library and MPL usage (this stuff confuses the debugger quite a bit). Hopefully by later today I will understand enough to know what you code samples are trying to do. :) -Allen On 9/6/06, Alex Mohr <amohr@pixar.com> wrote:
As a side note, if you don't mind me asking, how did you learn so much about how the conversion process works. I have always had trouble understanding the full process and am looking for any advice about how to learn it better. (did you learn from the code, the API reference, the mailing list, other??) If you ever have any time or interest and wanted to contribute some to a little documentation effort I am working on in my spare time, take a look at http://tinyurl.com/zb76h .
I learned from a combination of all the things you mention. I currently find reading the code to be the most useful. I don't know if there's a better resource, other than getting David to respond to your questions directly if you can. :)
