parserParseImportDecl now skips tkNewLine tokens inside {..} blocks,
matching the bootstrap parser behavior. This fixes parsing of imports
with names on separate lines, e.g.:
import Std::String::{
String_Eq,
String_Len
};
Previously the parser failed because it expected tkIdent immediately
after { but encountered tkNewLine instead.
This workaround consumes a stray } that parserParseBlock sometimes leaves
behind, which was causing the module handler to exit early. With this fix,
the selfhost compiler (buxc2) can now compile the entire src/ project.
- buxc2 project build: 491 user + 310 stdlib = 801 decls, no sema errors
- make selfhost-loop: builds and runs both passes
- C compilation succeeds, resulting binary works
- Cli_BuildProject now appends declarations (preserving original file order)
instead of prepending (which reversed order)
- Added per-file declaration count debug output
- This makes merge order match Nim bootstrap behavior
- Makefile: new targets `test-golden` and `selfhost-loop`
- selfhost-loop verifies C codegen determinism (2-pass bootstrap)
- test-golden compares C output against expected.c golden files
- Updated clean-all to clean new build dirs
- tests/golden/hello/: first golden test (hello world)
- src/sema.bux:
- Fix: import stubs only registered if symbol doesn't already exist
- Improve: error message now includes identifier name
- ast.bux: Decl expanded with field0..field255, variant0..7, param0..8
- parser.bux: add parserParseUnary for correct unary precedence; handle tkDiscard statements; allow var without initializer (matching bootstrap); add diagCount bounds check in parserEmitDiag
- hir.bux: HirParam changed to pointers
- hir_lower.bux: full field chains for struct lowering
- c_backend.bux: hardened -> vs . field access; null checks in CBE_GetExprTypeName
- cli.bux: add -lcrypto to linker
- Fix lirValToC crash on lvkInt in hStore raw C emission
- Add hAlloca handling to lowerExpr (returns &name, avoids unhandled fallback)
- Fix nested comment syntax in unhandled expr fallback
- Rewrite buildLval to handle hIndexPtr and nested hFieldPtr/hArrowField
so assignments like arr[i].field = val emit direct C lvalues
- Make &&/|| temporaries unique (__and_tmp_N/__or_tmp_N) to avoid
duplicate declarations in the same function
- Selfhost null-deref fix in sema.bux (unchained nested conditions)
- Lexer (Nim + Bux): resolve escape sequences (\n, \t, \r, etc) instead of
keeping raw source text in token. This was the root cause of \n being
double-escaped to \\n in generated C code.
- Manifest parser (src_bux/manifest.bux): use bux_strlen instead of broken
String_SplitCount(s, "") hack for string length; fix quote stripping.
- CLI (src_bux/cli.bux): --version/--help now recognized alongside version/help.
- Remove ~30+ debug Print statements from cli, parser, lexer, sema, main.
- Clean up unneeded Print/PrintInt extern declarations.
- _selfhost/src/: synced from src_bux/.
- Fix lexer unterminated char error test (was treating 'a as lifetime)
- Fix parser test sample.bux path for root-dir execution
- Add bux_system() to runtime.c and run command to selfhost CLI
- Switch bux_alloc from malloc to calloc for zero-init
- Fix module flattening in Cli_Check/Cli_Compile to scan full decl list
- Make test passes fully, selfhost builds successfully
- Parser_Parse: add beforePos safeguard to skip unrecognized tokens
instead of looping forever when parserParseDecl returns null
- Lexer: increase maxTokens 4096 -> 32768; add explicit break on limit
- CLI: null-check ReadFile result before String_Eq
- Nim CLI: add -O2 to cc invocation for faster self-hosted builds
- Added exprSpawnAsync flag to AST ekSpawn
- Sema checks if callee is async and sets the flag
- HIR hSpawn carries spawnAsync flag
- C backend uses bux_task_spawn for non-async (OS threads) and bux_async_spawn for async (coroutines)
- Added concurrency example to test suite
- T[] slices are now fat pointers {data: T*, len: size_t} in C backend
- Added hSliceIndex HIR node for slice indexing (distinct from hIndexPtr for raw pointers)
- Added exprIndexBoundsCheck flag to AST ekIndex
- Sema sets bounds-check flag in @[Checked] functions
- C backend emits Slice_<T> typedefs and compound literals for slice init
- bux_bounds_check() called automatically on slice indexing in @[Checked] funcs
- Unchecked functions allow raw access (C behavior) for performance
- Lexer tokenizes 'a as tkLifetime
- Parser accepts lifetimes in type params <'a> and reference types &'a T / &'a mut T
- AST TypeExpr has refLifetime field for tekRef/tekMutRef
- TypeParam gains isLifetime flag for generic monomorphization
- Sema infers lifetime params as no-op dummy values; unwraps pointee types for params inside refs
- HIR lower skips lifetime params when generating mangled names and substitution tables
- &mut expr syntax supported in parser (consumed as part of unary &)
Self-hosted compiler (buxc2):
- Add async/await/spawn tokens, parsing, HIR, lowering, C emission
- Fix pointer type emission (*T -> T*) in C backend
- Fix sizeof(Type) parsing with parentheses
- Fix import ::{...} infinite loop guard
- Fix int64 emission by avoiding else-if chain workaround
- Add debug-free cli and hir_lower
Bootstrap compiler (Nim):
- Fix critical else-if lowering bug in hir_lower.nim:
when both elseIfs and else block exist, elseIfs were dropped
causing all else-if chains to collapse to if+else only
Runtime:
- Fix bux_async_await memory corruption (don't free in run)
- Add bux_remove_from_ready for safe cleanup
- Fix forward declaration and deduplicate bux_now_ms
Docs & examples:
- Update async.bux example with proper int64 params
- Update README, LanguageRef, Stdlib, PLAN for async features
- Mark Phase 7.10 bootstrap loop as completed
All 27 examples pass. buxc2 check/build work on all examples.
- runtime: bux_async_return(value, size) copies result to task->result
- runtime: bux_async_await returns void* result pointer
- runtime: bux_async_result(handle) to retrieve result
- sema: ekAwait returns *void
- HIR: await lowered to bux_async_await returning *void
- Example: async Compute() -> int with interleaved execution and result await
Runtime:
- bux_argc()/bux_argv() — command-line arg access from Bux programs
- g_argc/g_argv globals — set by C main() wrapper
Compiler:
- C backend generates extern g_argc/g_argv + int main(argc,argv) wrapper
- main.bux reads args via bux_argc/bux_argv and passes to Cli_Run
buxc2 verified:
- buxc2 version — reads CLI args correctly
- buxc2 check <file.bux> — lexes, parses, type-checks, generates C
- buxc2 build <file.bux> <output.c> — writes C output
PLAN.md updated with Phase 7.10 status and remaining work.
All 18 examples pass, all unit tests pass.
