Description
Originally opened in RT
The .sort method on FixedPMCArray fails with "no applicable methods" when given a MultiSub PMC as a comparison function. Here's a sample PIR program: $ cat x.pir .sub 'main' .local pmc arr arr = new 'FixedPMCArray' arr = 4 arr[0] = 'just' arr[1] = 'another' arr[2] = 'perl' arr[3] = 'hacker' ## called with normal Sub, works $P0 = get_global 'cmpfn1' arr.'sort'($P0) $S0 = join ' ', arr say $S0 ## called with MultiSub, fails $P0 = get_global 'cmpfn2' arr.'sort'($P0) $S0 = join ' ', arr say $S0 .end .sub 'cmpfn1' .param pmc a .param pmc b $I0 = cmp_str a, b .return ($I0) .end .sub 'cmpfn2' :multi(_, _) .param pmc a .param pmc b $I0 = cmp_str a, b .return ($I0) .end $ ./parrot x.pir another hacker just perl No applicable methods. current instr.: 'main' pc -34072556 ((unknown file):-1) called from Sub 'main' pc 49 (x.pir:18) $ See also some of the analysis I did on the parrot-dev mailing list (subject: "References to multis (at PIR level)")-- I can repost that to the ticket if it would be helpful.

Here's a helpful comment on that ticket:
1. "runops_args" doesn't populate interp->current_args. 2. "Parrot_mmd_sort_manhatten" calculate candidates usign "Parrot_mmd_arg_tuple_func" 3. "Parrot_mmd_arg_tuple_func" uses interp->current_args. -- Bacek
