The host/chez directory mixed jolt's own runtime (value model, seq, reader,
vars, ns, multimethods) with the shims that emulate the JVM: java.* / javax.*
classes, clojure.lang interfaces, and the host-class registry they hang off.
Move that JVM-emulation layer into host/chez/java/ so it reads as a distinct
unit instead of being interleaved with the platform runtime.
Moved (content unchanged): host-static, host-static-methods,
host-static-classes, host-class, dot-forms, records-interop, byte-buffer,
io, io-streams, inst-time, java-time, bigdec, natives-queue, natives-str,
natives-array, math, concurrency, async, ffi.
The load paths in rt.ss/cli.ss and the build.ss runtime manifest are updated
to point at java/; the build inliner follows the (load ...) strings, so the
AOT path needs no other change. All runtime shims, no seed source touched
(the three .clj edits are doc comments), so no re-mint.
Gate green: make test (selfhost fixpoint, certify 0-new, sci 211, infer),
shakesmoke (4 apps byte-identical).
Running clojure.core.match (a macro-heavy library that builds its compiler out
of deftypes implementing clojure.lang interfaces) shook out a cluster of general
gaps. Its own suite goes from not-loading to 111/115 assertions.
- deftype/defrecord implementing a clojure.lang collection interface now drives
the core fns: Indexed -> nth, Counted -> count, Associative -> assoc, ILookup
-> get/valAt (non-field keys only, so a method's own field bindings don't
recurse), ISeq -> seq/first/rest, IPersistentCollection -> conj, IFn -> the
value is callable. A jrec is still a map of fields by default; the interface
method wins when declared.
- Multi-arity inline methods are grouped into one fn (a type with (nth [_ i]) and
(nth [_ i x]) kept only the last before). Built as data, not a nested
syntax-quote, so a `(= ~ocr ~l) method body keeps its unquotes.
- instance?/satisfies? recognize a protocol a type implements, including a MARKER
protocol with no methods (core.match's IPseudoPattern) — deftype/defrecord now
record protocol satisfaction even with zero methods. Added ILookup/Indexed/
Counted to the instance? taxonomy for the built-in collections.
- Syntax-quote: a fully-qualified class name (clojure.lang.ILookup) stays bare
instead of being namespace-qualified; (unquote x) is detected in a lazy seq
(a macro that builds its template with map, e.g. deftype's rewrite-set).
- clojure.set union/intersection/difference are variadic (& sets) + union 0-arity.
- java map view methods: keySet/values/entrySet/size/isEmpty.
- deprecated java.util.Date getters (getYear/getMonth/...) + the multi-arg
(Date. year-1900 month0 date hrs min) constructor.
Seed change (deftype/defrecord macros + clojure.set) -> re-minted; the rest are
runtime. 11 JVM-certified corpus rows; make test + shakesmoke green.
Rename src/jolt -> stdlib (the runtime-loaded layer; jolt-core stays the
seed-baked layer) and update the loader / emit-image / doc paths. Drop dead
code: the spike/ experiments, the duplicate clojuredocs-export.edn (json moves
to tools/), the Janet-era jolt.http binding, and the orphaned
persistent_vector.clj whose ns/path didn't even match.
Strip porting residue from comments and docstrings across host/chez, jolt-core,
stdlib, tests, and docs: internal issue ids, "Phase N" markers, and the "vs
Janet" historical exposition, leaving present-tense descriptions and the real
JVM-Clojure semantic contrasts. Same pass over the corpus suite labels. The seed
is unchanged (docstrings/comments aren't emitted), so the self-host fixpoint and
corpus are untouched.
Port tools/spec_coverage.py off the dead janet probe to bin/joltc and regenerate
coverage.md; drop the dead :host/janet rule from certify.clj and regenerate the
conformance profile. Add docs/host-interop.md (the JVM shims and how to register
your own host class from a library) and a writing-style note in CLAUDE.md.
Stabilize the four racy concurrency corpus cases (future-cancel and agent
send/send-off): give the future a sleeping body and the agent a slow action, so
cancel reliably catches an in-flight future and deref reliably reads the
pre-update snapshot. They certify deterministically now, so drop their :flaky
allowlist entries and the orphaned legend.
Surfaced running the DB libraries (migratus) on the jolt db library:
- java.sql.SQLException .getNextException / .getStackTrace / .printStackTrace on
jolt throwables (conditions + ex-info) return nil/empty, so a library walking
the exception chain doesn't crash.
- java.net.URL ctor + .getProtocol (file/http), alongside the existing url shim.
- A generic java.lang.ClassLoader: getSystemClassLoader / a thread's
contextClassLoader resolve a named resource against the source roots (the same
model as clojure.java.io/resource) — file: URL or nil. Thread/currentThread.
These are generic host capabilities, not DB-specific.
The jolt-lang/db next.jdbc surface now runs migratus far enough to connect, build
the migrations table, and discover migrations; migratus's remaining dependency is
java.nio.file (FileSystems/Path/PathMatcher glob), a JVM filesystem API kept out
of core.
Shake-out from the conformance-library sweep. Host-side fixes (runtime .ss,
no re-mint) plus one analyzer change (re-minted):
- Exception fidelity: ex-info and host-constructed throwables (RuntimeException.
etc.) now carry their JVM class, so (class e), instance? across the exception
hierarchy, .getMessage, and clojure.test thrown?/thrown-with-msg? all work.
- .getBytes returns a seqable/countable byte-array and honors UTF-16/UTF-32;
String. decodes them. ->bytevector accepts byte-arrays (Base64).
- Universal .getClass / .toString / .indexOf / .lastIndexOf on any value/seq.
- record? uses the host jrec? predicate (the old (get x :jolt/deftype) crashed
on a sorted-map by invoking its comparator).
- extend-protocol to abstract host types (clojure.lang.Fn/IFn/APersistentVector,
java.net.URI) dispatches.
- New host classes: clojure.lang.PersistentQueue, java.util.ArrayList,
java.net.URI, java.io.File / java.util.UUID ctors, Double/Float ctors+statics,
regex instance? Pattern, System/setProperty.
- *assert* / *print-readably* are real settable/bindable vars.
- (symbol "ns/name") splits the namespace at the last slash.
- letfn fn params desugar destructuring (analyzer; re-minted).
unit.edn gains exinfo/hostobj/queue/hostctor/destructure regression rows.
malli loads and validates now. Three divergences surfaced building its registry
and :map schema:
dot-forms: (.iterator coll) on a map fell into the map-as-object branch and was
mis-read as a missing :iterator key (nil), so malli's -vmap got nil and crashed
on .hasNext. Route iterator through the collection-interop path — a jiterator
over the seq (the entry iterator for a map).
host-static: register clojure.lang.LazilyPersistentVector/createOwning (-vmap
fills an object-array then hands it over) and PersistentArrayMap/createWithCheck
(malli's eager entry parser relies on its duplicate-key throw; a missing class
was caught and mis-reported as ::duplicate-keys on every map schema).
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
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.
