* module/language/ghil.scm (unparse-ghil): Fix unparsing of quasiquoted
expressions.
* module/language/ghil/spec.scm (join): Define a joiner for GHIL.
* module/language/scheme/compile-ghil.scm (cenv-ghil-env): Expand the
definition of a CENV so it can have an actual ghil-env, if available.
(compile-ghil): Return the actual ghil env in the cenv.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (compile-file): Rewrite. `output-file'
is now a keyword argument, along with the new kwargs `env' and `from'.
We now allow exceptions to propagate up, and instead of printing the
output file to the console, we return a string corresponding to its
location.
(compile-and-load): Use read-and-compile.
(compile-fold): Thread around the cenv as well. Return all three
values.
(find-language-joint, read-and-compile): New exciting helpers. The idea
is that compiling a file should be semantically equivalent to compiling
each expression in it, one by one. Compilation can have side effects,
e.g. affecting the current language or the current reader. So what we
do is find a point in the compilation path at which different
expressions of a given language can be joined into one. Expressions
from the source language are compiled to the joint language, then
joined and compiled to the target.
(compile): Just return the first value from compile-fold.
* module/system/base/language.scm (language-joiner): New optional field.
* scripts/compile: Rework for changes to compile-file.
* module/system/base/language.scm (lookup-decompilation-order): New
function, like its compiling cousin, but backwards.
(compute-translation-order): Rework so that languages can be specified
either by name or by identity. Return a list of language - procedure
pairs, without the "to" language in the list, instead of a list of
languages.
(invalidate-compilation-cache!): Invalidate the decompilation cache
too.
(<language>): Add a decompiler field.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (compile-passes): Much simpler now that
lookup-compilation-order gives us the procedures directly.
* module/language/*/spec.scm: Specify compilers by name, so that we can
avoid unnecessary module loads, and so that when we specify
decompilers, we can avoid cycles.
* module/language/ghil.scm (parse-ghil, unparse-ghil): Rework to make the
parse format correspond more closely with the object representation, so
that I only have to document it once in the manual. The salient change
is that no expression is self-quoting, and that variable references
should go through `(ref FOO)'. Rename `set!' to `set'.
* module/language/ghil/compile-glil.scm: Add a couple of compilers for
unquote and unquote-splicing, that just raise an error. This way I can
document unquote and unquote-splicing as normal ghil expressions,
except that it's the compiler that catches them if they're outside a
quasiquote.
(codegen): Adapt to change in <glil-asm>.
* module/language/ghil/spec.scm (parse): Fix parser typo bug.
* module/language/glil.scm (<glil-asm>): Remove useless <glil-vars>
structure, which also had a confusing name. Just put the nargs, nrest,
nlocs, and nexts in the <glil-asm> directly.
(parse-glil, unparse-glil): Serialize `asm' more straightforwardly.
* module/language/glil/compile-objcode.scm (<bytespec>): Remove
<glil-vars>, as with <glil-asm>.
(preprocess, make-meta, codegen, dump-object!): Adapt to change in
<glil-asm>.
* module/system/base/language.scm (<language>): Rework so that instead of
hardcoding passes in the language, we define compilers that translate
from one language to another. Add `parser' to the language fields, a
bit of a hack but useful for languages with s-expression external
representations but with record internal representations.
(define-language, *compilation-cache*, invalidate-compilation-cache!)
(compute-compilation-order, lookup-compilation-order): Add an algorithm
that does a depth-first search for a translation path from a source
language to a target language, caching the result in a lookup table.
* module/language/scheme/spec.scm:
* module/language/ghil/spec.scm: Update to the new language format.
* module/language/glil/spec.scm: Add a language specification for GLIL,
with a compiler to objcode. Also there are parsers and printers, for
repl usage, but for some reason this doesn't work yet.
* module/language/objcode/spec.scm: Define a language specification for
object code. There is some sleight of hand here, in the "compiler" to
values; but there is method behind the madness, because this way we
higher levels can pass environments (a module + externals pair) to
objcode->program.
* module/language/value/spec.scm: Define a language specification for
values. There is something intellectually dishonest about this, but it
does serve its purpose as a foundation for the language hierarchy.
* configure.in:
* module/language/Makefile.am
* module/language/ghil/Makefile.am
* module/language/glil/Makefile.am
* module/language/objcode/Makefile.am
* module/language/value/Makefile.am:
Autotomfoolery for the ghil, glil, objcode, and value languages.
* module/language/scheme/translate.scm (translate): Import the bits that
understand `compile-time-environment' here, and pass on the relevant
portions of the environment to the next compiler pass.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (current-language): New procedure, refs
the current language fluid, or lazily sets it to scheme.
(call-once, call-with-output-file/atomic): Refactor these bits to use
with-throw-handler. No functional change.
(compile-file, compile-and-load, compile-passes, compile-fold)
(compile): Refactor the public interface of the compiler to be generic
and simple. Uses `lookup-compilation-order' to find a path from the
source language to the target language.
* module/system/base/syntax.scm (define-type): Adapt to changes in
define-record.
(define-record): Instead of expecting all slots in the first form,
expect them in the body, and let the first form hold the options.
* module/system/il/compile.scm (compile): Adapt to the compilation pass
API (three in and two out).
* module/system/il/ghil.scm (<ghil-var>, <ghil-env>)
(<ghil-toplevel-env>): Adapt to define-record changes.
* module/system/il/glil.scm (<glil-vars>): Adapt to define-record
changes.
(<glil>, print-glil): Add a GLIL record printer that uses unparse.
(parse-glil, unparse-glil): Update unparse (formerly known as pprint),
and write a parse function.
* module/system/repl/common.scm (<repl>): Adapt to define-record changes.
(repl-parse): New function, parses the read form using the current
language. Something of a hack.
(repl-compile): Adapt to changes in `compile'.
(repl-eval): Fix up the does-the-language-have-a-compiler check for
changes in <language>.
* module/system/repl/repl.scm (start-repl): Parse the form before eval.
* module/system/repl/command.scm (describe): Parse.
(compile): Be more generic.
(compile-file): Adapt to changes in compile-file.
(disassemble, time, profile, trace): Parse.
* module/system/vm/debug.scm:
* module/system/vm/assemble.scm: Adapt to define-record changes.
* module/language/scheme/translate.scm (receive): Fix an important bug
that gave `receive' letrec semantics instead of let semantics. Whoops!
* module/system/repl/common.scm (repl-print): Slightly refine the meaning
of "language-printer": a language printer prints an expression of a
language, not the result of evaluation. `write' prints values.
* module/language/ghil/spec.scm (ghil): Define a language printer, and a
translator for turning s-expressions (not scheme, mind you) into GHIL.
* module/language/scheme/translate.scm (quote, quasiquote): Add some
#:keyword action, so that we can (quote #:keywords).
* module/system/base/language.scm (<language>):
* module/system/base/compile.scm (read-file-in): Don't require that a
language have a read-file; instead error when read-file is called.
(compile-passes, compile-in): Refactor to call a helper method to turn
the language + set of options into a set of compiler passes.
* module/system/base/syntax.scm (define-type): Allow the type to be a
list, with the car being the name and the cdr being keyword options.
Interpret #:printer as a printer, and pass it down to...
(define-record): Here.
* module/system/il/ghil.scm (print-ghil, <ghil>): New printer for GHIL,
yay!
(parse-ghil, unparse-ghil): New lovely functions. Will document them in
the manual.
* module/system/base/syntax.scm (keywords): Don't enable :keywords, it
breaks code that may assume that ':foo is a symbol, like boot-9.
* module/*.scm: Don't use :keywords, use #:keywords. The user can decide
if she wants #:keywords in their .guile, and :keywords might make us
compile modules differently.
