This lets us build a smaller binary. The minimal tested
binary on x86-64 (with -Os, -s, and all options that shrink binary size
turned on) is about 240 kB.
These functions made it very easy to create memory
leaks, and are better replaced with functions in vector.h or
simply using non-stack allocated arrays.
This makes it easier to document functions that
take keyword arguments and also prevents some allocations
with these functions. Before, this was possible via normal
variadic functions but created an intermediate tuple, and
the generated docstrings did not document the keys.
This should help address #81. Also hide janet_exit
and janet_assert, as they are really meant for internal usage.
I have not verified that this yet actually works with Rust's
bindgen.
64 bit nanboxing is kind of sketchy on non x86 architectures.
32 bit architectures seem to work better as the 32 implementation
doesn't rely on the format of the address space and layout of
double's in memory.
- Allow passing a table to fibers, which make fiber level scope easier.
- Add fiber/getenv, fiber/setenv, dyn, and setdyn
- Remove meta, *env*, and *doc-width*
- Some functions changed dignatures, and no longer take an env
Rather than edit the Makefile or the janet.h header yourself, use
janetconf.h to configure builds. This has the benefit of making it
easier to configure janet in a persitent but easy way.
A lot of refactoring larger integer types. Fix a number
of casting errors, but mostly rename things. Also try to
limit use of template-like macros as they bloat the binary
if not used in moderation. We were able to reduce the size of
typed array code as well by using a single view types.
We moved the literals true and false into one tag
type, so we an extra tag for raw pointer types
(light userdata). These can be used from the C API via
janet_wrap_pointer and janet_unwrap_pointer.
Allow overriding functions in the core libray to provide better
functionality on startup. Used to include our getline function in
the repl but use a simpler version in the core library.
Instead of a int32_t as the length argument, use
size_t to match up better with typearray.c and probably
most idiomatic C libraries.
Janet uses int32_t for length internally for consistency, space
efficiency, ability to fit int32_t in double, and various
other reasons.
Typed arrays used size_t in serialization: C APIs will
also often use it, so it makes sense to add first class support
for it rather than assume it will will fint into an integer.
These changes should quiet some visual studio warnings.
Also make some spacing more consistent.
Leave in issues with calling memcpy with size=0. If these
become a problem, will probably add a janet_memcpy as memcpy
is used so much in the code without 0 checks.
If a comment is not followed by a newline character, then
we got a false parse error. This is because the comment
state is left on the parse stack when we finished parsing, and
since the parse stack was not emtpy, we assumed an error.
This commit adds the parser/eof function, which lets the parser know
that an eof was reached. Before, we simply added a fake newline
character in some cases, and in the case of reading a file, we did
nothing, hence the bug.
Before, we used a local setjmp/longjmp for error handling.
Using janet_panic means errors can be more easily expressive and
code can be smaller.
However, we still need to make vector memory get gc collected, as
panics can cause the runtime to skip janet_v_frees.
A consistent style should help with contributors and
readability. We use astyle as the formatter as can make a pretty
good approximation of the current style and my preferred style.
Astyle can be found at http://astyle.sourceforge.net/astyle.html
This should speed up start time and reduce malloc/free
usage to about 15% of what is what previously for startup.
The current cost is slightly larger binary as the representaion
of the image is currently less compact than source code.
There was an implementation for stacktraces in both
run.c and in core.janet, status-pp. The commit removes
the one in core.janet in favor of the C based stacktrace, which
is exposed via debug/stacktrace. Lots of reshuffling of run-context
ensued as well, which resulted in an api that is a bit cleaner.
to make janet function calls easier and faster from C (still
needs an object pool for fibers, though). Fix bug in scan-number
and add many more peg tests.
Error handling is implemented with setjmp/longjmp so code
can be more concise. This required a very large but straight forward refactor for all
of the libraries.
