[Mono-devel-list] [PATCH] Shorter code for stind.i[12] (

[Ben Maurer]

Hello,

I was finding it mostly in crypto applications. Often, you end up
mapping one byte to another. It could also have use in some sort of
compiled pattern matcher (you put in a byte and get out the state that
you go into).

So, really the main application is a lookup table such as this.
Otherwise, it probably does not find much use.

I will check in the other patch tonight

Ben.

                   Hi,

  This one looks ok to me. About the ABC removal patch: I'm
not sure
this case is encountered very often, since people most
likely use int
indexes for indexing into small arrays. Perhaps it would be
better until
mass integrates his ABC removal phase.
