(:import [other.ns Type]) was a no-op (import unbound), so (Type. ...) failed
with 'Unknown class'. Bind import to register each named type's ctor closure
under the current ns. Corpus 2691->2692.
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
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.
Native Chez shims for clojure.core fns that live in the Janet seed but had none
on the zero-Janet spine (they resolved to nil -> "not a fn"):
- host/chez/natives-parity.ss: hash / hash-combine / hash-ordered-coll /
hash-unordered-coll (24-bit masked like core_extra), transient?, rseq (vectors +
sorted colls), cat (transducer).
- jolt-invoke now dispatches a TRANSIENT vec/map/set as a fn (callable on the JVM):
((transient [10 20 30]) 1) -> 20.
- ns.ss: ns-resolve, ns-imports, remove-ns, intern, alias, ns-unalias, refer,
ns-refers, refer-clojure, alter-meta!, reset-meta!, and a real ns-aliases (was a
stub returning {}).
- runtime (require ...)/(use ...) now register :as/:refer into the Chez ns tables
(was a no-op). The Chez analyzer already pre-registers at analyze time, but when
the JANET analyzer compiled the form (prelude path) the Chez tables stayed empty,
so ns-aliases/ns-resolve over an alias diverged — this fixes both paths.
Seed unchanged (overlay doesn't reference these at mint time). zero-Janet corpus
2567->2600, prelude 2557->2590, 0 new divergences on either; Janet gate + JVM cert
green. Filed jolt-vgrp for the pre-existing var-get-of-scalar-native-op quirk.
jolt-cf1q.7
The analyzer lowers the `.` special form (. target member arg*) and the
.-field field-access head to a :host-call instead of leaving them
uncompilable. Janet behaviour is unchanged — its back end punts :host-call
to the interpreter, which re-runs the original `.` form via eval-dot.
The Chez back end routes a non-shimmed :host-call through
record-method-dispatch, extended by a new host/chez/dot-forms.ss with the
arms dispatch-member covers but the record/string base did not, mirroring
src/jolt/interop/collections.janet precedence:
- collection interop first (count/seq/nth/get/valAt/containsKey on a
vector/map/set), so (. {:count 9} count) is the entry count like the seed
- field access for a "-name" member (records and maps)
- the seed's universal object-methods (getMessage/getCause/toString/
hashCode/equals) on a non-record map, winning over a field lookup
- non-record map member: a stored fn is a method called with self, else
the field value
Raw seqs are excluded from coll interop — the seed's behaviour there is
representation-dependent (plain (seq v) vs a lazy-seq) and a normalized cseq
can't mirror it. Also added getMessage/getLocalizedMessage/equals to the
string method surface so a thrown string / Exception. ctor (which keeps the
message string) answers .getMessage.
Parity 2134 -> 2150, 0 new divergences. New test/chez/_dotform.janet 26/26;
emit-test 331/331.
Bring the clojure.string namespace up on Chez so aliased refs like s/split,
s/upper-case, s/join, s/replace resolve and run.
Three pieces. (1) The Chez AOT driver analyzes the whole user form before any
require runs, so a (require '[clojure.string :as s]) never registered the
alias in time; eval-e-with-prelude now recursively pre-evals require/use forms
against the ctx, which loads the aliased ns and registers the alias so the
analyzer resolves s/X to a clojure.string var. (2) emit-core-prelude emits
stdlib namespaces (clojure.string) as their own def-var! tier through the same
analyze->emit pipeline, so the runtime var-deref resolves. (3) natives-str.ss
def-var!s the str-* primitives clojure.string.clj is written over (upper/lower/
trim/triml/trimr/find/reverse-b/join/split/replace/replace-all), plus no-op
require/use. Regex split keeps interior empties and honors the limit (ported
the seed re-split); regex replace does $N backref expansion and fn replacement
(ported replacement-for). new RT/clj files added to the prelude fingerprint.
Corpus prelude floor 2026 -> 2078 (+52), 0 new divergences. _strns 28/28 vs
build/jolt. Four previously-CRASHING cases now emit+run and surface pre-existing
gaps (read-line vector eval-order x3, instance? clojure.lang.Atom) — allowlisted
with notes. full jpm test + conformance x3 green.
Port the java.lang.String/CharSequence method surface to the Chez RT so
(.toUpperCase s), (.substring s a b), (.indexOf s x), the regex methods
(.matches/.replaceAll/.replaceFirst/.split), etc. run on a string target.
natives-str.ss holds jolt-string-method, ported from the seed's surface in
eval_resolve.janet: ASCII case mapping (byte-oriented like the seed), -1 on
indexOf miss, flonum numeric returns to match jolt's number model, Scheme
chars for charAt, and the regex methods over the irregex compiled via
jolt-re-pattern. record-method-dispatch gains a string? arm that falls
through to it (unsupported methods still throw).
Corpus prelude floor 2002 -> 2026 (+24), 0 new divergences. _str 27/27 vs
build/jolt; full jpm test + conformance x3 green.
The (. x m) dot-form (the . special form, distinct from .method sugar) and
the clojure.string namespace (needs prelude plumbing + Pattern) stay deferred.
