Hm, interesting assertion. The place I mentioned before is a little FORTH interpreter I was working on ( https://github.com/OneWingedShark/Forth ) so that Forth.VM (the package containing the VM/interpreter) and Forth.Types (the package containing the data-types [for cells] and cell-operations) could be mutually dependent:
-- Routine is an access to a procedure; this cannot be put into a
-- subpool, sadly, and is intended only for definition of words;
-- typically, the routines pointed to should have full view of the
-- VM (that is the stacks) in order to manipulate them.
Type Routine is Access Procedure( State : not null access Forth.VM.Interpreter );
Is that a bad design-choice? If so, why?
