That depends on what you're looking to do. What specifically do you mean by supporting ELF? The code should work as-is on an ELF based system. It just needs the input object file to be a MachO.<br><br>Even as this gets fleshed out to handle more things, it's only at the edges where the JITed code interfaces with external bits that there's likely to be any extra work required to run on an ELF based system, and that should be relatively self-contained.<br><br>So if you mean whether this infrastructure should work on an ELF based host, then yes, at least most of it should work without modification. If you mean using ELF as a container instead of MachO, then no, I have no plans to do that.<br><br>-Jim<br><br></div></div>
