The `#use` directive now supports referencing entire directories,
automatically including all `.myc` files within them. Additionally,
environments are now initialized with the current working directory as a
default search path, simplifying module resolution.
Introduces the `#use` preprocessor directive, allowing Myc scripts to
explicitly declare dependencies on other Myc libraries. This change
moves dependency management from a command-line argument to an in-script
declaration, ensuring scripts are self-contained and can correctly
resolve macros and other symbols.
Key features include:
- Declarations at the beginning of a file, evaluated before parsing.
- Support for relative paths and a new `->` separator.
- Automatic resolution of dependencies from specified search paths.
- Idempotent loading to prevent duplicate parsing and evaluation.
- No AST pollution; dependency management is a compile-time concern.
The compiler's lexer has been updated to recognize `#` as a comment
character, and the environment now manages search paths and loaded
modules. This lays the groundwork for more complex library structures
and improved code organization.
Introduce new indicators for Simple Moving Average (SMA) and Weighted
Moving Average (WMA), along with their Hull Moving Average (HMA)
derivative.
Also refactors series implementation to use `RefCell` for interior
mutability and adds `SeriesMember` trait for better dynamic series
access. Updates `soa_series.myc` example to reflect new series creation
and push syntax.
The Binder and its helper functions have been updated to accept and
propagate a `Diagnostics` struct. This allows for better error reporting
during the binding phase, enabling the compiler to continue processing
even after encountering errors and collect all issues before halting.
The `BoundKind::Error` node and `StaticType::Error` are introduced as
"poison" nodes/types. These nodes indicate that an error occurred during
compilation, preventing further valid processing of that specific AST
fragment but allowing the compiler to continue with other parts of the
code.
The `Parser` has also been updated to return a `Diagnostics` struct,
enabling it to report errors during the initial parsing stage while
still attempting to build a partial AST. This adheres to the same error
recovery strategy.
This commit refactors the `execute_trace` function to utilize the
`run_debug` method on the `Environment`. This simplifies the execution
flow and leverages existing functionality for tracing and error
handling.
The optimizer now uses a simple boolean flag (`optimization`) instead of
an `optimization_level` (u32). This simplifies the optimizer's logic and
makes it easier to enable or disable optimizations.
The command-line interface and internal testing have been updated to
reflect this change.
Introduces a new optimizer pass that can "crack" closures, allowing for
more aggressive specialization. It also enables inlining of upvalues
that point to immutable global variables. This removes overhead for
higher-order functions and currying when arguments are statically
resolvable.
Introduce a `--trace` flag to the AST tool that enables the
TracingObserver.
This allows users to see the detailed execution steps of their scripts.
Also, refactor the main and AST tool to better handle tracing and
performance
statistics.
Introduces `LambdaCollector` to gather lambda functions and populate the
function registry. This enables the `Specializer` to work with
user-defined functions.
The `Environment` struct is updated to manage the `function_registry`
and `monomorph_cache`, which are essential for the specialization
process.
The `link` method in `Environment` now incorporates lambda collection
and node specialization before applying TCO optimization. This ensures
that lambdas are properly processed and specialized for potential
performance gains.
The `Specializer`'s `new` constructor has been modified to accept and
initialize the `MonoCache` through an `Rc<RefCell<MonoCache>>`. This
allows the cache to be shared across different specialized functions.
Also includes minor refactoring and type adjustments in `specializer.rs`
for better clarity and consistency.
This commit introduces a new `tester` module to the `ast` crate,
enabling functional tests and performance benchmarks for MYC scripts.
Functional tests are executed by reading `.myc` files from the
`examples` directory, parsing expected output comments, and comparing
them against the actual script execution results.
Benchmarking involves measuring the execution time of scripts,
calculating median durations, and comparing them against stored
baselines. The commit also adds support for updating these baselines.
The `ast.rs` CLI and the `main.rs` GUI application have been updated to
expose these new testing and benchmarking features. The `Cargo.toml` and
`Cargo.lock` files have been updated to include the `regex` dependency
required for parsing benchmark comments.
The project now uses the `clap` crate for handling command-line
arguments, replacing the previous manual parsing approach. This includes
adding `clap` as a dependency and creating a `Cli` struct to define the
command-line interface. The `main` function has been updated to parse
these arguments and handle file input or direct script evaluation.
