Applying jitify to a linklet now generates fragments of code that
are not nested. The drawback of this approach is that calling
a nested function needs an extra indirection, and the closure
has an extra slot. The advantage is that the fragments can be
separately compiled and fasled, which could enable a cache of
compiled fragments.
Use a `(let ([<name> ....]) <name>)` wrapper to communicate
an 'inferred-name property from correlated objects to
Chez Scheme. This stategy relies on a Chez Scheme patch to
make the wrapper work consistently.
The improvements reported in 74012f8c57 were actually due to a broken
experiment that dropped source locations on application forms, instead
of preserving them in marshaled code. Adjust the expansion pipeline
to do that earlier and intentionally.
The xify pas doesn't help all that much after all, but it's still more
comfortable to be independent of local-variable names.
The xify pass replaces local variable names with `x0`, `x1`, etc.
Using a minimal set of symbols makes the fasled form smaller
and typically take only 60-70% as long to read.
The places test suite included some tests that create lots of places
and don't wait for them, which can lead to an overload of places that
exhausts resources such as file descriptors. Improve the tests, and
also improve a failure behavior from a crash to an error message.
The `place-kill` function sends a message to another place to
terminate, but it didn't wait for that message to take
effect before returning. Worse, it put the place object in a
state that claimed that the place had terminated.
When the first subexpression is complex and the second
is a literal character, the generated JIT code swaps the
argument order, but compilation didn't swap the test for
whether one or the other is a literal character to skip
a run-time test.
It claimed two extra methods were generated when no
(#:use-wrapper-proc) was provided: (set/get)-surrogate-wrapper-proc.
Removes that claim from the docs.
Also fix a few minor stray punctuation marks.
I tried Googling for Racket best practices, and could not easily find
the style guide. Adding these key words to the text should improve
discovery of the style guide when one forgets the key word "style" :)
Using `racket/private/kw-syntax-local` as the source for
`local-expand`, etc., means that modules that re-export that
one (such as `scheme/base`) get the right documentation links.
When an embedding application calls `scheme_basic_env` a
second time, it's supposed to reset the main namespace, but
the new expander wasn't reset correctly.
* Fix handling of single-percision infinities and nan
* Document that non-`hash-eq?` hash tables are accepted by `jsexpr?`.
* Document that the value of `json-null` is recognized using `eq?`
* Use `case` instead of `assoc`.
* Use contracts
