defmulti/defmethod become macros (30-macros) over ctx-capturing
clojure.core fns (defmulti-setup/defmethod-setup, interned by
install-stateful-fns!):
- defmulti: (defmulti name dispatch & opts) -> (defmulti-setup 'name
dispatch ~@opts). name quoted; dispatch + opts (:default/:hierarchy)
evaluated. defmulti-setup builds the dispatch closure over the method
table and interns the var (same hierarchy/default/cache behavior).
- defmethod: (defmethod mm dval & fn-tail) -> (defmethod-setup 'mm dval
(fn ~@fn-tail)). The method impl is now a COMPILED (fn …) (was an
interpreted fn* eval). Auto-creates the multimethod if missing.
- removed their special-symbol? entries + eval-list arms, and dropped them
from host_iface special-names + loader stateful-head?.
Both compile + interpret as plain invokes; dispatch incl. :default and
derive/hierarchy works in both modes.
Tests: evaluator-test (defmulti case) + namespace-test now use init (these
forms are overlay macros now, so a bare make-ctx lacks them).
Gate green: conformance 269x3, fallback-zero 38/4, bootstrap-fixpoint
stage1==2==3, self-host, staged-bootstrap, sci-bootstrap, clojure-test-suite
>=4034/67, features 78/78, all unit + spec (multimethods 16/16).
Reorganize the flat 49-file test/ into three layers (jpm test recurses, so all
are still discovered):
- test/unit/ white-box component tests (reader, evaluator, types,
persistent-map, lazy-seq, macro, interop, compiler)
- test/integration/ cross-cutting + regression batteries (conformance, jank,
sci-bootstrap/runtime, features, systematic-coverage, api,
core, namespaces, ported clojure suites) and
.../ports/ ported clojure/cljs test batches pending consolidation
- test/spec/ the behavioral contract (built out in following commits)
- test/support/harness.janet shared defspec table runner (cases compared via
Jolt's own =, with a :throws sentinel) + expect= helpers
Files moved with git mv (history preserved) and import paths fixed for depth.
jpm test green. README Test section updated.
Next: build out test/spec/ to cover the public API area-by-area, mining the
integration batteries and filling gaps.
