Compile , load and unload modules


Good Evening,

I'm starting to like this nekovm syntaxe, much better than parrot pir and winxed. :)

I am searching a bit more informations on compilation and loading.
What I am trying to achive is some kind of module manager (not neko modules but higher level more like java
.jar archives).

So I have a .neko or .nxml file and would like to compile it to a .n .(from my application, which is also written
in neko). something like calling 'nekoc' but within neko ?
When .n file is done, I would like to know how to load it (from a random path) and how to unload it if that's
possible ?

thanks

johann

You'll have to compile the nekoc sources, then load the nekoc modules 
(except neko/Main) in order to perform that.

Look at how nekoml translate to neko and check src/neko/Main.nml to see 
what api you need to call.

Best,
Nicolas
