jolt maps were HAMTs with hash iteration order; Clojure keeps small maps as
PersistentArrayMap (insertion order), converting to PersistentHashMap past a
threshold. Map literals, array-map, assoc, into/transient, merge, zipmap,
select-keys, update-keys/vals, frequencies and group-by now iterate in insertion
order for <=8 entries, matching the JVM. hash-map and >8-entry maps stay hash
order; sets stay hash order.
The pmap record gains an order field (the insertion-order key list, or #f once
hashed); the HAMT still backs the values so equality/hash/lookup are unchanged.
pmap-fold visits an array-mode map last-to-first so the runtime's cons-accumulate
idiom reconstructs insertion order without touching its many call sites, and
hash-mode output stays byte-identical; pmap-fold-fwd visits in order for the few
sites that build a value directly. Transient maps track insertion order and
promote to hash past max(8, source-count), matching TransientArrayMap.
The hash-map native-op retargets to a hash-order builder so (hash-map ...) stays
hash-ordered while {...} literals are ordered; syntax-quote builds maps via the
hash builder (Clojure expands `{...} to apply hash-map). The core overlay map
builders seed from {} instead of (hash-map) to keep order.
Threshold is 8 for any key (the keyword exception in newer Clojure isn't in
1.12.5). honeysql now passes 832/0/0; 19 JVM-certified corpus rows added.
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.
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
set/hash-map/hash-set/array-map/rand resolved to jolt-nil on the prelude
(the apply-jolt-nil crash bucket) — the pmap/pset ctors already existed in
collections.ss, just bind the public clojure.core names to them.
Map entries are now a distinct type: a pvec carries an ent flag (default #f),
so an entry equals its [k v] vector and walks like one (nth/count/seq/=/hash/
print read only v) but is not vector? and is map-entry? — matching Clojure's
MapEntry. seqing a map produces flagged entries; vector? excludes them. This
unblocks key/val (overlay fns gated on map-entry?) and the every? map-entry?
cases.
