- Rewrite apps/nexus with modular architecture:
Config, Http, Errors, Parser, Router, Handlers, Server, Main
- Use algebraic enums for ParseResult/FileResult/HttpError
- Thread-pool server via Channel<ConnectionTask> and spawn
- Fix C backend type ordering for generic struct instances
(Array_T, Iter_T) and algebraic enum struct payloads
- Collect Slice_T types from struct fields and enum payloads
- Fix match lowering for simple enums (direct value compare)
- Resolve match expression return type from first arm
- Infer element type for for-in over Array<UserStruct>
- Preserve generic type args in field access resolution
- Add fflush to PrintLine/Print for immediate server logs
- Add modern_features golden regression test
- Regenerate golden expected.c files
Implement MVP closures — anonymous functions without captures.
Syntax:
|a: int, b: int| -> int { return a + b; }
Changes:
- ast.bux + ast.nim: add ekClosure AST node
- parser.bux + parser.nim: parse |params| -> Ret { body }
- sema.bux + sema.nim: type-check closure params/body, return tyFunc
- hir_lower.bux + hir_lower.nim: generate __closure_N function + hAddrOf
- lir_c_backend.nim: fix function-pointer variable declaration (cParamDecl)
- C backend: closures compile to global functions with unique names
Test: _test_closure/src/Main.bux
- Closure as variable
- Closure passed to higher-order function
- Address of named function as function pointer
Both bootstrap and selfhost compilers build and pass the test.
- Add tekFunc AST node and parser support for func(Params) -> Ret
- Add tkFunc type resolution in sema and hir_lower
- Add &FuncName address-taking yielding tkMutRef(tkFunc)
- Fix C emission: function pointer params use Ret (*name)(Params) syntax
via cParamDecl helper that embeds the name inside (*)
- Fix forward declarations and temp declarations for function pointers
- Add funcPtrTypes table in C backend so &Fn temps get proper type
- Add _test_funcptr integration test
- hir_lower: add isScope=true to lowerBlock; fix resolveExprType for ekIndex,
ekField on monomorphized structs, and ekTry/ekUnwrap tmpVar typing
- lir_lower: add loop label stack for break/continue; pass null arg to
bux_task_spawn when spawn has no arguments
- lir_c_backend: multi-pass type inference for temps; include params in
varTypes; handle lvkTemp in lirLoad; use inferred type in lirAlloca
- 42 LIR instructions in bootstrap/lir.nim
- HIR→LIR lowering in bootstrap/lir_lower.nim
- LIR→C emission with full struct/enum/vtable support
- All 22 examples + 5 Nim unit tests passing
- Updated README status and backend description
