Of the above I am guess that exceptions are most interesting. The unwind / invoke operations of llvm fits this quite well, but still need somewhere to store the exception and do matching - unless I missed something? Any thoughts / takers?
This is generally done with global variables. The C++ front-end basically generates code like this: C++: throw 42; Pseudo LLVM code: int *E = allocate_exception_memory(4); *E = 42; add_to_current_exception_stack(E); unwind I imagine that something similar should work for pypy. -Chris -- http://nondot.org/sabre/ http://llvm.org/
