- 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
Bootstrap compiler:
- ast.nim: add exprCallArgNames to ekCall for named arg tracking
- parser.nim: detect name: value syntax in call args
- sema.nim: add resolveCallArgs helper that injects default values
for missing params and reorders named args into param order.
Parser already parsed default param values; sema now uses them.
Selfhost compiler:
- ast.bux: add defaultExpr to Param, argName to ExprList
- parser.bux: parse = defaultExpr in param list, detect name: value
syntax in call arguments
- sema.bux: add Sema_ResolveCallArgs with same logic as bootstrap
Tests:
- _test_named_params verifies defaults, named args, mixed positional+named,
and named args with defaults in both compilers.
All verifications pass: build, selfhost-loop, test-examples, test-golden.
- 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/
- 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
