- reword the first-page explanation of chaperone contracts;
try to give a positive description by talking about wrappers first
(rather than starting with what chaperones maybe don't do)
- name the recognizer functions for chaperone & impersonator contracts
(on the first page)
- clarify that `contract-projection` and `contract-val-first-projection`
are bad --- that there's a preferred alternative
- describe the outputs of `contract-projection` and
`contract-val-first-projection`; their docs were identical before, but
now re-use prose from sec 8.7 (Building New Contract Combinators)
Use a consistent style for the "good / bad" examples:
- start the code at the far left of each box
- keep a little space between the top of the box & the label
GitHub's CDN seems to have recently started returning the `Location` header for a redirect with a lowercase `l`, which breaks the redirect logic. The HTTP spec says that header names are case-insensitive, so we need to look for either version.
Make `register-process-global` check for byte strings, and avoid
retaining the byte string that it's given (in case that changes, for
example).
Closes#3053
Building glib-specific support into the main Racket executable is
unsatisfying, but it's consistent with Racket BC, and the alternative
is especially tedious to deal with places and namespaces and
allocation.
Combined with a schemify improvement that inlines imported predicates
to expose the record-type test to Chez Scheme, this chage enables
cptypes to prune useless inlined `wrapped-object` selector branches.
That improvement, in turn, reduces code size and redundant checks on
objects that have contracts.
When a `lambda` form is marked as a method (for arity error reporting)
through a property, translate that to a static flag on the procedure,
instead of a call to `procedure->method`.
The only way we have to attach static information is through the
procedure name, so the encoding already in place for "no name" and
"path-based name" is extended to support a method flag.
Since procedures have names that are attached more directly by the
schemify pass, remove simple `let-values` forms wrapping procedures.
This shortcut improves the result of the lifting pass in some cases.
Record types with unnamed fields can be significantly more compact,
excdeption in combination with the constrain the the fields all
contain Scheme objects. Saves 2% for DrRacket's initial footprint.
We had to give back some space savings to avoid potential problems
with allocating in the event callback and running out of stack
space[?] when passing an argument. We get to keep most of the
improvement though.
