Gives more control over unmarshalling
abstract types. This should also
make it possible/easy to write abstract types that cannot
cause unmarshal to segfault.
This makes the names of the opcodes match their implied functionality.
We also rename the C functions to match the opcodes and source level
functionality.
Rather than messing with janet_core_dictionary, we
instead cache the core enevironment, and pull out the
needed tables from there. This is more flexible, more correct, and
also exposes janet_resolve_core, which can be easily used from the C
API.
The janet_get_permissive function implements the core semantics
of the 'get' function. The original janet_get implements the semantics of
the 'in' function and also the OP_GET opcode. This slight oddity is
to avoid a backwards incompatible change.
A finalizer can be attached to scratch allocations efficiently at any point in
it's lifecycle via janet_sfinalizer. Care was taken to keep allocations aligned
with platform alignment requirements.
A big drawbacks to this approach is the waste of up to 16 bytes per scratch
allocation in the case the scratch memory does not require a finalizer.
The new RNG wraps up state for random number generation, so
one can have many rngs and even marshal and unmarshal them.
Adds math/rng, math/rng-uniform, and math/rng-int.
Also introduce `in` and change semantics for
indexing out of range. This commit enforces stricter
invariants on keys when indexing via a function call
on the data structure, or the new `in` function.
The `get` function is now more lax about keys, and will
not throw an error when a bad key is used for a data structure, instead
returning the default value.
The print family of functions now writes output
to an optional buffer instead of a file bound to :out.
This means output can be more easily captured an redirected.
This should be friendlier to most users. It does, however, mean
we lose range information. However, range information could be
recovered by re-parsing, as janet's grammar is simple enough to do this.
Also adds the janet_lengthv API call. This is
needed because janet_length returns a 32 bit integer, where
as lengthv lets us return larger values (useful for typed arrays).
janet_mcall is an api function that should make it easier to call
a janet method from C code. It shares a similar signature with
janet_call.
A keyword reference only counts as visited if we have
it as cached in the memoized->table, and we know it was
originally referenced from the same grammar table. If these
two conditions are true, then compilation must work correctly.
Also add janet_table_get_ex.
Mostly changes to cook and jpm. Also some
code for file associations in the windows installer, and
adding the :linux value from os/which (instead of just :posix).
This allows better stacktraces when manually intercepting
signals to clean up resources. Also allows functionality
from Common Lisp's unwind-protect, such as calling cleanup code
while unwindinding the stack, restarting on certain signals, and
just in general having more control over signal and signal propagation.
Also fix a bug encountered while implementing with-resource in the
compiler. Desturcturing arguments that were not the last argument
would often result in bad code generation, as slots used to destructure
the earlier arguments would invalidate the later parameters. This is
fixed by allocating all named parameters before doing any destructuring.
