The per-form eval passed a FIXED compile-ns to every subform of a top-level do,
so a runtime (ns ...)/(in-ns ...) didn't redirect later defs/refs — defs landed
in the wrong ns and qualified refs hit host-static ("Unknown class"). Thread
the current ns: each subform analyzes in (chez-current-ns), which ns/in-ns move.
That exposed two more gaps, now fixed:
- use refers ALL of a target's public vars (a refer-all table consulted by
chez-resolve-refer) — was bound to plain require (explicit :refer only).
- defmethod on a QUALIFIED multifn (cf.mm/ext from another ns) resolves in the
symbol's ns, not the current one (was auto-creating a stray multifn).
Corpus 2684->2688, 0 new divergences; floor raised. No re-mint (runtime shims).
Rephrase comments that pointed at deleted Janet files (emit.janet, the seed
sources, 'the Janet back end punts ...') to present-tense descriptions of the
Chez behavior. Comment/docstring-only; the self-host fixpoint is unchanged
(comments don't affect the compiled seed).
Delete five files that were Janet-host shims with no Chez path: clojure.java.io
(provided natively by host/chez/io.ss), and jolt.{nrepl,png,interop,shell}
(the janet.* bridge, os/shell, janet.net — none exist on Chez).
jolt-cf1q.6
host/chez/multimethods.ss implements the multimethod runtime: defmulti/defmethod
expand to defmulti-setup/defmethod-setup calls (+ get-method/methods/
remove-method/prefer-method/prefers). A jolt-multifn record carries its dispatch
fn and a jolt=-keyed method table; jolt-invoke dispatches it (exact match, then
isa?/hierarchy with prefer-method, then :default), reusing the overlay's
isa?/derive/make-hierarchy. The multifn's ns comes from a runtime chez-current-ns
(default user; the prelude load sets clojure.core for print-method/print-dup).
Two emit-side changes were needed:
- late-bind (:late-bind-unresolved? ctx flag, default OFF): defmulti expands to a
bare-symbol setup call, so the analyzer doesn't intern the name and a forward
reference '(area ...)' after '(defmulti area ...)' in one form was 'Unable to
resolve symbol'. The strict compiler punts these to the interpreter; the Chez
back end has none, so the flag lowers an unresolved symbol to a var-ref against
the compile ns (open-world -e semantics). Set only by the Chez make-ctx /
jolt-chez; the main compiler keeps strict resolution (host_iface late-bind?
defaults nil).
- a :var call head now routes through jolt-invoke, since a late-bound var can hold
a multifn (or keyword/coll IFn), not just a procedure. Transparent for
procedures; the hot self-recursive call is a :local known-proc, stays direct.
Class-based dispatch ((class x)/String) deferred (needs deftype/class subsystem).
Parity 1506 -> 1530/2497, 0 new divergences. emit-test 302/302. Full janet gate
green (the analyzer flag is off there; suite flakiness under parallel load only).
