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
Just like the args, locals are now inlined into the Message.
Message is off course bigger, but as they are created at compile time, that hardly matters
Some programs did get somewhat smaller, especially with both changes, but not super much
Super is a statement, a send really.
Not an expression (as maybe in c++)
The actual implementation will be a bit tricky, like raise, a bit of stack walking, but not impossible. Still, later
previous commit affected rather many test, as the implicit returns add extra instructions
Also added some explicit returns, so as not to test the return logic too much. return (ie return nl) is a knonwn 3 risc operation.
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.
Parfait classes must be unscoped. Now we start parsing Parfait, it must be without the module.
Luckily module_eval makes this a breeze.
Also remove string interpolation that is not yet processed
also tried to keep the first around as was done in space
partially to not have to add the consrtants seperately
didn't work, as chain gets broken
also this has to be redone anyway
page was maybe a too low level name
pages may be the unit of the syscall, but after that objects desolve (maybe later to be added on from different pages)
Factory has the job of handing out a new instance of a type
it keeps a freelist for that and a reserve
these types are only needed to debug and can be gotten from the method (also in the mesage)
just saving the 6 instructions for every call
This was made possible through previous commits on fake_memory access
unfortunately the writers have to have self.var =
otherwise it is just a local var
Also need to make the type explicit for all
Protocol included memory_length on the class for now
thus every method only has one exit
should make multi return messages smaller
especially when we have escape analisis
(maybe will help with inlining too)
