devices right now

environments session?

carl showed some C code... examples of how to interface to the rebol 
library

yep

top secret! ;-)

And we have to wait a lot weeks totouch it.. :(

ah, will he cover rebol's library interface improvements? Are there 
any at all? ;-)

yes..little more

probably not at this point

it's all in the OS part so you can improve it yourself

very nice imlpant carl!

C struct for device request

so still awfull callback support, chars, nested structs spec etc.? 
bleee :-)

callbacks is always a hard part..

i didn't say that. i said that's not going to be discussed now

none would be nice ;-)

and... i said that you can make it the way you want if you don't 
like how it'llbe :)

introduction to plugins now

aaa nice...

not sure. need to know more about plug-ins :-)

loads dll / requestst plugin header / calls init function /loads 
any module code / resolves word symbol table / creates native functions 
/ natives dispatched via dll table

psst!

plug-in (in this sense) is C-code thta plugs into REBOL.....A bit 
like writing your own natives. So makes REBOL highly extensible.

will use rebin but rebin is still an issue

so plugins are on hold right this moment

cool, is that done already, or to be done for 3.x? where x > 0?

ah ...

Also open source part?

Q: can any language be linked as a plugin interface?

plugins themeselves can be open/closed

norman, they are a dll

C or C++ ?

if you can make a dll, you are probably fine, but of course more 
details will be available later on

C

C is more compiliant with library calls though..

no C++ in rebol except for AGG

A great !

im happy..

so plugins are OS indepentend as i understand...

yes. devices are os dependent.

What about security model? we were expecting improvements for browser 
plug-in, but the same topic may concern rebol plug-ins - you can 
plug dll, which code you don't have under control?

plugins have to be compiled as a library on each OS  dll, dso, etc.

Is rebol3 going to be compatible with beer?

what is the core size of a minimal plugin ?

Rebolinth - I doubt plug-ins are OS independent ...

Let the religious wars begin :)

graham, i'm not sure i understand the question. will it run the current 
beer? no. can you port beer to it? yes.

Not me :(

Thankyou again Carl !

minimal plugin size: between 4-8k depending on your compiler
