- Add operatorMethodName mapping (tkPlus -> operator_add, etc.)
- Add tryLowerOperatorCall / tryLowerIndexCall in HIR lowerer
- Modify ekBinary lowering to check method table before builtins
- Modify ekAssign lowering to detect ekIndex target and emit
operator_index_set method call when available
- Add sema type-checking for operator overloads in ekBinary
and ekIndex paths (method-table lookup before builtin rules)
- Fix sema compile errors: minfo.params[N].typ -> minfo.params[N]
- Fix hir_lower forward decl ordering for resolveExprType
- Update golden test expected.c files for current C backend
- Update ROADMAP.md and PHASE8_STRATEGY.md status
- Add syntax
- Desugars to if-else chain in HIR lowering (both compilers)
- No new HIR/C backend nodes needed — reuses hIf/hBinary/hBlock
- Supports integer, char, and enum tag dispatch
- Case body can be single statement (no braces required)
- Add statement for function-level deferred execution
- Deferred expressions run in LIFO order on function exit (return or implicit)
- Bootstrap: desugar defers in hir_lower.nim (inject before return + end of func)
- Selfhost: emit defers in c_backend.bux via CEmitter defer stack
- Both: add tkDefer token, skDefer AST node, hDefer HIR node
- Parser, lexer, sema, token files updated in both bootstrap/ and src/
hir_lower.resolveExprType for ekField now correctly resolves variant
positional/named fields (e.g., r.data.Ok_0, r.data.Err_0) on _Data
union types, matching the existing logic in sema.checkExpr.
This fixes the runtime segfault in examples/algebraic_enums.bux where
the C backend emitted an int temporary for a String field, causing
PrintLine to dereference a garbage pointer.
- Fix bootstrap sema to type simple enum variants as the enum itself
(not _Tag), and .tag access returns the enum type.
- Fix hir_lower to lower simple enum .tag as no-op and Enum{tag:X}
init as X directly.
- Fix sema collectGlobals to register imports AFTER real declarations,
preventing duplicate-symbol errors when stdlib files import symbols
defined in later files (e.g. jwt.bux importing rsa.bux).
- Rewrite lib/crypto/*.bux as single-line to work around bootstrap
parser limitations with multi-line function calls.
- Rename 'pub' -> 'pubBuf' in ed25519.bux and jwt-pitbul/Main.bux
to avoid reserved keyword collision.
- Remove algTag:int workaround from jwt-pitbul/Main.bux; enum
comparisons now type-check without manual casts.
- Update .gitignore to exclude _test_*/ and backup files.
- Delete accidentally-committed _test_array/ directory.
Parser would hang (infinite loop) when encountering newline tokens
inside certain constructs because expect() returns without advancing
position when the expected token doesn't match.
Fixed 5 places in parseBaseType, parsePrimaryPattern, parseTypeParams,
parseParamList, and parseUseDecl by adding newline-skipping at the
start of each iteration.
Verified: compiler no longer hangs/crashes on all 3 real-world apps
from apps/ (boko-framework, jwt-pitbul, nexus).
- examples/borrow.bux: working borrow expression example
- tests/borrow_test.nim: add 4 new tests for borrow & @[Shared]
- parser.nim: fix borrow parsing order (& before mut)
- Build verified: example compiles and runs
- 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)
- 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
