===Other implementations===

There is no standarization for the [[Perl]] [[programming language]] and Perl virtual machine. The internal API should be considered as non-stable and changes from version to version. The Perl virtual machine is tied closely to compiler. These things make very hard to reimplement Perl virtual machine.

The most known and most stable implementation is a B::C Perl module<ref>{{cite web | url=http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?B::C | title=B::C - Perl compiler's C backend}}</ref> which translates opcodes tree to representation in C language and adds own tree walker.
