Two way interoperability (where C calls Smalltalk) has been a problem, but there are now at least two different Smalltalk implementations that compile to "native code" directly (no bytecodes at all, this is better than JIT compilation). With "classic" native code compilation, two-way interoperability is not a problem << This is the first interesting tidbit in this entire tiradathon. Please tell us more about these new Smalltalk implementations. Al
