Since some weeks, Parfait uses instance variables instead of generated attribute getters (that needed type)
This makes it possible to simplify the boot process, getting rid of separate boot Space and class versions.
It is still quite order dependent, but all "normal" ruby code, (less magic) so easier to understand.
Also moved all code that can never run at runtime into the adapter. This included Space and Object new, space as the space will only ever be created at compile time and object, since that is quite different at run-time (which is where i am working towards)
as they are just the type of the meta_class, that was relatively simple.
I feel this is what oo is meant to be, instance variables and methods for the objects, and since classes are objects, for them too.
Class variables seem like a design mistake, weird scoping rules and no data hiding (left as an exercise to the reader)
args and locals got inlined into message, forgot to delete then
ripples out due to type creation
small type class api change, more ripples, but also more consistent
was using exit, since raise is not implemented. This was ambiguous as all programs exit.
Using :died as special kernel code and bending it, and reporting it in interpreter.
Now we are using a statically linked list of messages. This will not work with procs, but that can be solved then.
Previous (wrong) thinking was that because of procs messages have to be allocated for every call. This was too slow, and not neccessary
Parfait was depending on it, ie it created a dependency out of Parfait. But Parfiat needs to be self contained.
Moved 2 methods into parfait object, and resolved single call from text_writer to third.
Since Builtin generates risc, just like mom instructions, it was a design mistake to put builtin into risc in the first place. Now that borders are coming more into focus, it make much more sense to have the builtin in mom.
In fact the instructions should be moved out and a seperate invocation mechanism used , so functions can be parsed, not generated (wip)
start at Object get_interna_word
using the pattern to replace the whole risc method with a single mom instruction. Copying the original risc code into the instrucitons to_risc
also adding some very basic tests
last orrurences in syscalls replaced, 2 variants
- exit does not actually need the int
- all else, preallocate the int beforehand and in syscall assume the reg name (integer_tmp)
test missing
