* compiler: self-hosted analyzer compiles set literals (#{…})
Stage 1 Task 1. analyzer.clj punted set literals to the interpreter
((form-set? form) (uncompilable "set literal")); now it builds the set-node IR
(already defined in ir.clj) from (form-set-items form), and backend.janet emits
(make-phs e1 e2 …) — each element evaluated then the persistent set built,
mirroring compiler.janet's emit-set-expr and the interpreter's :jolt/set path.
Closes a self-hosted-analyzer vs bootstrap-compiler parity gap: #{…} no longer
forces interpreter fallback on the compile path.
Gate: conformance 262x3 (+4 set-literal cases incl computed elements / empty /
in-let), fixpoint, self-host, sci, suite 3981/66, specs+unit green; core-bench
neutral (A/B). set?/disj-as-fns remain deliberately interpreted (in-sync across
all three lists) — adjudicated in Task 2.
* test: fallback-zero harness — assert non-stateful forms compile (not interpret)
Stage 1 Task 3. self-host-test checks results but not which path ran. This runs
the portable analyzer (backend/analyze-form) on a corpus of non-stateful forms
and asserts NONE raise :jolt/uncompilable — i.e. the self-hosted analyzer
compiled them, not the interpreter fallback. Inverse sanity list confirms a few
intentional-interpret forms (ns/defmacro/require/set?/letfn) still punt, so the
harness can't pass by compiling everything.
29 must-compile (incl set literals from Task 1) + 5 must-punt, 0 failures. As
Stage 1 parity grows, forms move from the punt list into must-compile; when the
fallback set equals the frozen intentional stateful set, the bootstrap is
retireable.
* core: migrate 7 lazy seq fns from the Janet seed to the Clojure overlay (40-lazy)
Finishes a port the prior team started and reverted (bb4a3e0): the 40-lazy.clj
tier moved lazy seq fns Janet→Clojure but regressed the suite to 849 because
lazy-seq's expansion leaked as data in compile mode — that was jolt-r81, since
root-fixed (lazy-seq/lazy-cat moved to 00-syntax). With the wall gone, the port
works. This shrinks the Janet seed toward the north star (self-hosted
clojure-in-clojure on a minimal host bootstrap).
Moved to core/40-lazy.clj (wired as a loaded tier after 30-macros):
distinct keep keep-indexed map-indexed cycle repeat iterate
40-lazy.clj completed to full parity: distinct gains its transducer arity;
keep/keep-indexed/map-indexed already had both arities.
Removed from the Janet seed (core.janet): the 7 core-* fns + their core-bindings
entries, the now-dead td-keep/td-map-indexed transducer helpers (the CLJ versions
carry their own), and the already-dead core-partition-by/core-xml-seq (shadowed by
10-seq/20-coll). Net: core.janet −131 lines.
Deferred (kept in Janet, separate follow-ups): partition-all (a CLJ port via
take/drop realizes a non-minimal element count, tripping the §6.3 laziness
counters + a suite file) and repeatedly (canonical CLJ doesn't validate args, so
the repeatedly.cljc throw cases regress). Both need behavior-matching first.
Gate: conformance 262x3, lazy-infinite 44/44, clojure-test-suite 4004/66 (UP from
3981 — the CLJ versions add coverage, e.g. distinct value-equality), fixpoint,
self-host, sci 422/0, fallback-zero, specs+unit, core-bench all green.
* test: raise clojure-test-suite baseline 3981 -> 4004 (lazy-fn migration coverage)
* core: migrate partition-all to the Clojure overlay (minimal realization)
Resolves the deferred partition-all port (jolt-yo3). The earlier CLJ attempt via
lazy take/drop over-realized vs the Janet pstep, tripping the §6.3 laziness
counter. The collection arities now realize EXACTLY n per chunk with a first/rest
loop and continue from the advanced cursor (no re-drop), so (take 3 (partition-all
2 (map counting (range)))) realizes exactly 6 — matching minimal realization in
both interpret and compile modes. Keeps transducer + [n coll] + [n step coll]
arities. letfn-bound recursion sidesteps the compile-mode multi-arity closure bug
(jolt-zxw), like keep-indexed/map-indexed.
Removed from the Janet seed: core-partition-all + its binding + the now-dead
td-partition-all helper (the CLJ version carries its own transducer arity).
Gate: conformance 262x3, lazy-infinite 44/44 (incl the §6.3 partition-all
counter), clojure-test-suite 4004/66, fixpoint, self-host, specs+unit green.
* core: migrate repeatedly to Clojure + fix char-not-callable / take count validation
Resolves the deferred repeatedly port (jolt-8qx). The blockers were two jolt
leniencies vs Clojure, now fixed (and correct beyond repeatedly):
- A char (a :jolt/type-tagged struct) fell into the struct-as-map branch of both
jolt-call (compile path) and the interpreter's apply dispatch, so (\a) returned
nil instead of throwing. Now only an UNtagged struct (a map literal) — or a
record — is callable as a key lookup; tagged structs fall through to "Cannot
call … as a function". Symbols are still handled (keyword-style get).
- core-take didn't validate its count, letting Janet's >= silently compare an int
to a char/string. It now rejects a non-number n like Clojure.
With those, the canonical CLJ repeatedly matches: (first (repeatedly non-fn)) and
(repeatedly non-number f) throw. Moved repeatedly to core/40-lazy.clj; removed
core-repeatedly + its binding from the seed.
These correctness fixes help broadly: repeatedly.cljc goes clean (19/10 -> 29/0),
and the suite rises 4004 -> 4034 pass / 66 -> 67 clean. Baseline raised.
Gate: conformance 262x3, lazy-infinite 44/44, clojure-test-suite 4034/67,
fixpoint, self-host, sci, fallback-zero, specs+unit green.
* test: document the 4004 -> 4034 baseline raise (partition-all/repeatedly + char/take fixes)
* docs: partition-all letfn is for minimal realization, not jolt-zxw
jolt-zxw (multi-arity arity-param mis-capture in a nested lazy-seq under :compile?)
is no longer reproducible: an arity-direct partition-all now compiles correctly in
the overlay. The original failure was an artifact of the CLJ multi-arity version
coexisting with the Janet core-partition-all ([n & rest]) during migration — the
shadowing confused multi-arity dispatch; removing the Janet version resolved it.
The letfn in partition-all stays purely for minimal realization (jolt-yo3).
* compiler: compile set?/disj as plain fns (close the last Stage-1 fallback gap)
Stage 1 jolt-g3h. set? and disj were special-cased in all three "can't compile"
lists (host_iface special-names, compiler.janet uncompilable-heads, evaluator
special-symbol? + handlers) — but they're pure value-production with callable
core vars (core-set?/core-disj), and those vars are byte-for-byte equivalent to
the evaluator handlers. Removed them from all three lists + dropped the now-dead
evaluator handler arms, so they're ordinary clojure.core fns everywhere: the
analyzer compiles (set? x)/(disj s x) as normal var calls instead of punting to
the interpreter.
Verified identical results in default AND JOLT_MUTABLE builds (no representation
sensitivity — sets are phs in both, unlike vector?/list? which collapse).
With this, the self-hosted analyzer's compile-path fallback set equals the frozen
intentional stateful set (Task 2) — it's now a strict superset of the bootstrap
compiler's compilable surface, so the Janet bootstrap is retireable (Stage 2).
fallback-zero: set?/disj moved to must-compile (31 now), set! into must-punt.
Gate: conformance 267x3 (+5 set?/disj cases), lazy-infinite 44/44, suite 4034/67,
fixpoint, self-host, sci, specs+unit green.
