The nREPL server bound its loopback socket through libc process symbols,
which don't carry the socket entry points on Windows — they live in
ws2_32.dll and aren't in joltc.exe's export table, so --nrepl-server died
with "no entry for socket". Load ws2_32 before the foreign bindings there,
call WSAStartup once, and use Winsock's closesocket and int-typed
recv/send. Also fix SOL_SOCKET/SO_REUSEADDR, which the old macos-only
check got wrong on Windows.
Bake a version string into the self-contained binary at build time (from
$JOLT_VERSION, else git describe) and expose it via jolt.host/jolt-version:
--version / -V print it, and it shows in --help, the repl banner, and the
nREPL startup line. Dev runs off bin/joltc read it from git describe.
Add -e to the help output.
The -e path worked but jolt build died: jolt_petite_boot_len wasn't
foreign-entry-visible. -rdynamic's Windows equivalent for an exe is an
export table; -Wl,--export-all-symbols provides one.
Adds a windows-latest job to the release matrix: MSYS2/MinGW-w64 toolchain,
Chez 10.4.1 built from source (ta6nt), the same build-joltc flow, packaged
as a zip of joltc.exe. The whole job runs in the msys2 shell so cc/xxd/paths
behave; the produced binary is a plain Windows executable.
Platform seams: bld-nt? with the winsock/COM/registry link set, no -rdynamic
under MinGW, GetModuleFileName as the launcher's self-path on _WIN32, and
built binaries (joltc itself and jolt-build outputs) normalize to a .exe
suffix. workflow_dispatch added so the matrix can be dry-run without tagging;
the release upload step only fires on tags.
For #205.
The self-contained build reads the bundled Chez petite/scheme boots from the
joltc binary via foreign-entry on the embedded jolt_* symbols. On Linux dlsym
can't see an executable's symbols unless they're in the dynamic symbol table, so
'build' died with 'foreign-entry: no entry for jolt_petite_boot_len'. -rdynamic
exports them (macOS already resolves them). The new release self-contained-build
smoke caught this on the Linux runner.
`joltc build` inlines the runtime (host/chez/rt.ss and everything it loads, the
seed, compile-eval, loader, ffi, the vendored irregex) into each app binary by
reading those files off disk. That works from a jolt checkout but not from the
installed self-contained binary, which has no source tree:
joltc build -m app.core
=> Exception in call-with-input-file: failed for host/chez/rt.ss: no such file
build-joltc now bakes the exact transitive closure of files the build inlines
into the binary as embedded resources (keyed by the path the `(load "…")` forms
use), and build.ss/dce.ss read runtime source through bld-source-string, which
takes the embedded copy when present and falls back to disk otherwise. So the
same joltc builds apps both from a checkout and standalone.
The release workflow now smoke-tests a self-contained build (compile a tiny app
from an isolated dir, run it) — this is exactly what shipped broken, so it now
gates the release. buildsmoke/shakesmoke/staticnativesmoke unchanged and green.
Build tooling only — no re-mint, no runtime change.
A :jolt/native spec can now carry a :static archive; `jolt build` links it
into the executable, so the app calls the C code with no shared object on the
target. --dynamic (or :jolt/build {:dynamic-natives true}) keeps the old
runtime load-shared-object behavior; a spec with no :static is unchanged.
The cc link force-loads the archive (-force_load on macOS, --whole-archive on
Linux) and exports the executable's symbols (-rdynamic on Linux) so the baked-in
symbols resolve via (load-shared-object #f) + foreign-procedure at startup. Build
step 1 evaluates the app's foreign-procedure forms in-process, so a static
archive is preloaded there as a throwaway shared object to resolve them.
The distributed self-contained joltc has no external cc/Chez but must build these
apps, so it now bundles the Chez kernel (libkernel.a + scheme.h) and the launcher
source and re-links a custom stub with the archives baked in — needing only a
system cc, no Chez. run/repl skip static-only specs (nothing to load); keep a
:darwin/:linux candidate to use such a lib interpreted.
Adds static-native-smoke (cc path) to ci and a static phase to the joltc
self-build smoke (distributed path).
host/chez/build-joltc.ss builds joltc into target/<profile>/joltc: it emits a
flat source of the full runtime + compiler image + inlined build.ss + every
jolt-core/stdlib file as a baked string literal + a cli.ss-style launcher, then
(in a fresh Chez, so the inlined runtime's redefinition of error doesn't strand
early references and runtime eval still sees the runtime's top-level procedures)
compiles it and cc-links it with the Chez petite/scheme boots and the launcher
stub embedded as C arrays. The launcher reads those arrays via FFI on
(jolt-materialize-bundles!) and registers them so build-self-contained can spill
them. joltc itself is cc-linked (clean signature for Homebrew); only the apps it
later builds use the appended-stub path.
build.ss: skip the csv toolchain check on the self-contained path and create the
build dir with a subprocess-free bld-mkdir-p, so a from the
distributed binary shells out to nothing.
release = optimize-level 3 + no inspector info + compressed; debug =
optimize-level 0 + inspector + procedure source + debug-on-exception.
joltc-selfbuild-smoke.sh (make joltcsmoke) builds joltc and, with an empty
environment (no chez/cc/PATH), drives it through the build-app fixture, asserting
the produced binary's output. .gitignore ignores target/.
