RE: Strongtalk from scratch (really patch to get rid of assembly code)

Looking at the diffs, this looks like a promising approach to getting rid of
the ASM files (which I wholeheartedly support), but I was unable to get it
to work.

In order to get the build to work (using VC++ 2005) I had to add the
following four lines to deps\includeDB:

    codeIterator.cpp	interpreter.hpp
    dispatchTable.cpp	interpreter.hpp
    process.cpp		interpreter.hpp
    stubRoutines.cpp	interpreter.hpp

and then redo the makedeps.

I then added these files to the project:

    behavior_prims_gen.cpp
    block_prims_gen.cpp
    double_prims_gen.cpp
    smi_prims_gen.cpp
    generatedPrimitives.cpp
    generatedPrimitives.hpp

Doing that allowed the project to build without errors (with two benign
looking warnings). However, running the resulting "strongtalk_debug.exe"
caused a near instant access violation, with the following output. I did not
attempt to debug it further.

No, because i build using vc6. I could release the vc6 file if you
want, but all you need is to do is:

starting with the source, make a project with all .cpp files.
(you don't need to run makeDeps because the files in deps/incls are
already there)

in the project:
- add all source directories as include directories (including deps/)
- add DELTA_COMPILER,MICROSOFT and PRODUCT or DEBUG in defines

and from there you should build without a problem
