adds self-hosted compiler is functionally:
- The default compile path is the portable pipeline using jolt.analyzer (Clojure) → host-neutral IR → backend.janet.
- The analyzer is itself Clojure, compiled by jolt for true self-hosting.
- bootstrap-fixpoint passes (stage1 == stage2 == stage3): rebuilding the compiler on its own output.
- clojure.core is now self-hosted in the overlay.
- Stateful forms (defmacro/ns/deftype/defmulti/require/in-ns) are interpreted by design.
- core: pr-render/str-render now render a Jolt var as #'ns/name instead of
falling through to the generic table printer, which recursed into the var's
cyclic :meta/:ns refs and looped forever. Adds name-of/var-display helpers.
- jolt.nrepl: capture the post-eval namespace *after* running the form — jolt
evaluates map-literal values right-to-left, so {:val (eval form) :ns (the-ns)}
read the ns before in-ns ran, pinning every session to 'user'. Now in-ns/ns
switches persist across evals. render-value dropped: pr-str handles vars.
- specs: var printing (strings-spec) and nREPL in-ns/ns-persistence + explicit
:ns override (nrepl-test).
- subs requires a string and validates 0<=start<=end<=count (no Janet
from-end/clamping); negative/out-of-range/nil indices throw
- assoc! on a transient vector bounds-checks the index (0..count)
subs 11-fail -> 24/5 (5 remaining are byte-vs-codepoint Unicode, platform);
assoc_bang 32/6 -> 35/3. clojure-test-suite pass 3889->3898.
spec: string/subs-strictness (7), transient/assoc!-bounds (4). jpm test green.
Mine the cljs port batteries into the spec layer and delete them (their behavior
is covered by spec; the unique functions they exercised are now specced).
Removed test/integration/ports/ entirely.
New/expanded spec coverage from the mining:
- spec/exceptions-spec: try/catch/finally, throw, ex-info/ex-message/ex-data/ex-cause
- doto, pr-str, keyword/symbol constructors, atom?, dynamic var binding
Two rare edges filed (jolt-...): rethrow of a caught ex-info re-wraps it; var-set
on a dynamic var inside binding no-ops. Core try/catch/ex-info and binding work.
Test layout is now spec (22 files, ~677 cases) / integration / unit / support.
conformance 218/218, jpm test green.
Add spec suites for numbers/arithmetic, strings (str + clojure.string), and
type/value predicates. Bugs they caught and fixed:
- <, >, <=, >= were binary-only; now variadic ((< 1 2 3) chains)
- seq? was true for vectors; vectors are not ISeq in Clojure, so (seq? [1])
is now false (true only for lists/lazy-seqs)
- clojure.string/index-of and last-index-of were 1-based (stray inc); now
0-based per Clojure
Corrected a systematic-coverage assertion that encoded the old seq? bug.
jpm test green, conformance 218/218.
