- changed substitute to use closure-compilation
- added stress/perf test for templates
- updated minimatch with vector patterns
- split substitute into separate file, minimize dependencies
- do ellipsis optimization dynamically
- validate guides: check var indexes
Although th eoriginal idea was to distinguish "text" paths
from derived filesystem paths, practically everythign that accepts
a module path also accepts a path. Building the generalization into
`module-path?' makes it easier to support `submod' wrappers on paths,
and it seems to fix things rather than break them.
Rename `read-intern-literal' to `datum-intern-literal'.
Interning is needed only in `read-syntax' or `datum->syntax' to
set up the invariants that the bytecode compiler needs for cross-module
optimization. When `read'ing numbers from a data file, meanwhile,
interning slows things down a lot and doesn't seem worthwhile.
This library is used by Redex, which wants a `syntax'-like template
language, but for datum values instead of syntax objects. Using
`datum-case' and `datum' generates much less code. Redex uses
only a small part of the general functionality, so adding
`syntax/datum' could be overkill. It's implemented by generalizing
the `syntax-case' and `syntax' pattern matching and template
constructing code, though; it's not a lot of extra code, and it's
easiest to generalize completely. We may find other uses for
datum templates, too.
This change saves a small amount of space in cross-reference files
and some space in loaded cross-reference information.
It also saves work converting strings to mutable on deserialize,
although the performance difference seems negligible.
Macros and other tools that need syntax privilege used
`(current-code-inspector)' at the module top-level to try to
capture the right code inspector at load time. It's more
consistent to instead use the enclosing module's declaration-time
inspector, and `var-ref->mod-decl-insp' provides that. The
new function works only on references to anonymous variables,
which limits access to the inspector.
The real function name is longer, of course.
