generating bytecode: test

[Klaas-Jan Stol]

Hello,

I've been experimenting with byte code generation, and made *some* progress,
but it's still not working properly.

When generating a PBC with imcc, the generated file is 800 bytes; when my
test program does it, it's around 680 bytes, so I'm missing something
somewhere.

I'll be stepping through code some more, but it's a tough process. Should
anybody be bored, attached is the file (it's not really clean code...).

Compiling must be done with the proper Include flag (windows: /Iinclude,
assuming the file is placed in parrot root directory).
Linking must be done against libparrot.lib (again, windows)
The last 2 lines of the generated output is:

================================
Subroutine returned a NULL address
current instr.: 'main' pc -1 ((unknown file):-1)
================================

which is at least something. (the file is unknown because I never set it in
the code; there's no use for this test file I guess).

Any help would be most welcome.

cheers,
kjs
