(.. x m ...) failed: the analyzer classified the .. head as a .method interop
call (method-head? matched any "."-prefixed name) and form-special?
(hc-interop-head?) also flagged it, so it never reached the macro check. Exclude
".." from both (the char after "." being "." means the threading macro, not
.method). Corpus 2690->2691. Re-minted.
jolt was all-flonum (one :number type, inherited from Janet whose only number
type is a double). The Chez runtime has a full numeric tower, so the zero-Janet
path now carries it = JVM Clojure semantics:
(/ 1 2) => 1/2 (exact Ratio, was 0.5)
(integer? 3) => true (integer? 3.0) => false (float? 3.0) => true
(ratio? (/ 1 2)) => true (= 3 3.0) => false (== 3 3.0) => true
(+ 1 2) => 3 (exact) (/ 1.0 2) => 0.5 (double)
jolt= was already exactness-aware (values.ss) and == is value-equality, so
=/== match the JVM split. The reader preserves exactness (integer literals exact,
a/b ratios exact rationals, decimals/exponents flonums); backend_scheme emit-const
renders exact ints/ratios and flonums faithfully; the value-position arithmetic,
count, int, compare, bit ops, parseLong, string .length/.indexOf, range,
timestamps, and array bytes return exact integers (= JVM int/long) instead of
coercing to flonum. double/parseDouble/clojure.math floor|ceil|signum stay double.
Only the zero-Janet path carries the tower (the Janet reader loses exactness into
a double before emit). The prelude/all-flonum path is unaffected for compiled code;
the runtime reader is shared, so a couple of all-flonum reader assertions become
value (==) assertions. ~16 numeric corpus cases now give the JVM tower value vs the
Janet-era :expected and are allowlisted as tower divergences (Chez == reference
JVM) pending the corpus flip to JVM (jolt-ecz0). No BigDecimal type (1M).
Re-minted. zero-janet 2682 (floor 2698->2682, the reclassified tower cases), 0 new
divergences; fixpoint 10/10, bootstrap 6/6, spine 35/35, cli 49/49; Janet gate 155
files 0 failed.
Two Chez reader bugs, both JVM-parity gaps:
inc'/+'/foo' (trailing apostrophe) were mis-read as a symbol followed by a
quote macro, because the reader treated ' as a terminator. In Clojure ' is a
NON-terminating macro char (constituent after the first char). Since the seed
is minted on Chez, (def inc' inc) became (def inc 'inc), clobbering inc's var
cell with its own symbol -- so (var-get (var inc)) returned the symbol, not the
fn. Drop ' from the token terminator set; a leading ' still quotes.
^bytes [b] / ^String [x y] return-type hints: the Chez reader lowered ^meta on
a collection to a (with-meta vec meta) form, but emitted a QUALIFIED
clojure.core/with-meta while the Janet reader emits a bare with-meta -- so the
fn/defn macros' unwrap logic (matching the bare head) slipped past it and choked
on a non-vector arglist. Emit bare with-meta to match Janet, and unwrap a
(with-meta <vec> _) arglist in analyze-fn as a backstop.
Re-minted the seed. zero-janet 2699, prelude 2652, Janet gate 155/0, fixpoint
10/10, bootstrap 6/6, all 0 new divergences.
The corpus certifier (test/conformance) flagged four cases where jolt's
hand-written :expected matched a real defect rather than Clojure. Fixed in the
jolt-core overlay, corrected the spec :expected, re-certified against JVM Clojure:
- ex-message: returns nil for a non-throwable (dropped the lenient string branch);
still returns the message for ex-info. (jolt-l8e8)
- munge: preserves the argument's type — a symbol munges to a symbol, not a string.
(jolt-hc35)
- print: (print nil) emits "nil", not "" (top-level nil guard; str yields "").
(jolt-pqio)
- bounded-count: uses the counted? fast path (full count), else counts up to n via
seq — was (min n (count coll)), wrong for counted colls. Added an uncounted-coll
spec case. (jolt-2507)
Removed the 4 :bug entries from known-divergences.edn (now certified), regenerated
corpus + profile, re-minted the Chez bootstrap seed (clojure.core changed). Gates:
Janet 155/0, JVM certify clean, both Chez corpus gates 2534 (floors raised),
bootstrap 6/6, fixpoint intact.
Makes the inc8 fixpoint the actual build. host/chez/bootstrap.ss loads a seed
(prelude, image) pair and rebuilds the clojure.core prelude + compiler image from
source via the on-Chez compiler — read/analyze/emit all on Chez, zero Janet.
The seed (host/chez/seed/{prelude,image}.ss) is the checked-in bootstrap
compiler, minted once via the fixpoint (driver/mint-chez-seed* iterates
bootstrap.ss from the Janet-emitted pair to a joint byte-fixpoint). It's a joint
fixpoint: rebuilding from an up-to-date seed reproduces it exactly. So a fresh
checkout + Chez (no Janet) yields a working jolt.
test/chez/bootstrap-test.janet spawns only chez, asserts the rebuilt artifacts
match the seed byte-for-byte and compile+run real cases. Drift (seed sources
changed) fails the test with a re-mint pointer; host/chez/seed/README documents
re-minting.
