Raw Normal View History

Port the BASIC interpreter from Go to C Reproduces deps/basicinterpret in C, in the idiom of the ak* libraries. All 41 .bas files in the reference's corpus produce byte-identical stdout, including the trailing double newline on an error line -- that comes from basicError building a string ending in \n and handing it to Println, and array_outofbounds.txt encodes it. The corpus is driven in place from the submodule as 41 individual CTest cases rather than copied, so it cannot drift from upstream. Eighteen unit tests cover what the corpus cannot reach. Three structural changes carry most of the work. Go's three reflection lookups (Command*, Function*, ParseCommand*) become one sorted dispatch table in src/verbs.c searched with bsearch; adding a verb is a row and two functions. The five Go maps become one fixed open-addressed table over aksl_strhash_djb2. And run(), which owned the process until MODE_QUIT, splits into step() plus a bounded run() -- goal 3 requires a host game to be able to bound execution, and nothing in the library now terminates the process or touches SDL. Output goes through an akbasic_TextSink vtable. src/sink_stdio.c is what makes the corpus runnable with no SDL present; the akgl-backed sink is still to come and is blocked on libakgl having no text-measurement call. src/convert.c exists because libakstdlib's aksl_ato* family cannot report a conversion failure (its TODO.md 2.1.5). The reference checks strconv's error at four sites and turns it into a BASIC error; routing those through aksl_atoi would have turned four diagnosable errors into wrong answers, with VAL("garbage") quietly returning 0. TODO.md 1.9 records which libakstdlib calls are cleared for use here and which are not. Reference defects are reproduced, not fixed: the golden files encode the observed behaviour and a silent correction is a behaviour change. TODO.md section 6 lists sixteen, and tests/known_reference_defects.c asserts the *correct* contract for six of them under AKBASIC_KNOWN_FAILING_TESTS, so a fix shows up as "unexpectedly passed". Five of the sixteen were found by this port and are new: subtraction stops after one operator so 1-2-3 computes 1-2 and abandons the rest of the line (a wrong answer, not a refused one); a unary-minus argument inflates a function's arity so ABS(-9) is rejected; a comparison operator in a line's final column is dropped; hex literals never survive the scanner; and the "Reserved word in variable name" check is dead code. Where the reference reaches undefined behaviour by a route that is defined in Go -- an out-of-range shift, a negative string multiplier, integer division by zero -- this raises instead of inheriting the UB. No golden case exercises any of them. The top-level CMakeLists shadows add_test, set_tests_properties and add_custom_target around all three add_subdirectory calls. Without it libakerror's tests land in our suite as Not Run, and its un-namespaced `coverage` target stops a coverage build from configuring at all. Test targets are akbasic_test_<name>: bare test_<name> collides with libakstdlib's, which is what broke libakgl's configure in c2b16d3. ctest 59/59; ASan+UBSan 59/59; 92.3% line and 96.9% function coverage; no warnings under -Wall -Wextra.

Port onto libakstdlib 2b79aca and convert the eight bool predicates akbasic's src/ now calls libakstdlib 313 times and raw libc 7 -- 2.2% bypassed, against 86.4% on the same tree before this. The submodule bump 669b2b3 -> 2b79aca needed no source change of its own: the release is drop-in for what akbasic already used. Seven of the eight sites the earlier port left on raw libc change their own signature rather than swallowing an error, per andrew's ruling on libakstdlib#38. word_is, the is_waiting_for pair, the scanner's is_at_end, peek, peek_next and match_next_char, format.c's overflow, and sink_akgl's scroll/newline/putchar_at/echo_line/edit_key chain all return an akerr_ErrorContext * and hand the answer back through an out parameter. is_waiting_for and is_waiting_for_any are a public header change; every call site that used one as a term in a condition hoists it into a statement first. verb_compare is the eighth and stays on strcmp. bsearch(3) fixes the comparator's signature, so there is no out parameter to report through -- which is what libakstdlib#38 concluded. It carries a comment saying so and saying why the bypass is safe there. Six snprintf sites stay raw because they want truncation as an answer rather than an error, and aksl_snprintf cannot express that until libakstdlib#34 hands the required length back. Each of the six says so at the site. Two of them, in host.c, are a latent defect rather than a decision: a host type name over 31 characters truncates silently and two sharing a prefix then collide, where structtype.c refuses the same case. DLOAD leaked a file descriptor. Its read loop sat inside an ATTEMPT and the PASS in it returned past CLEANUP, so a scan error left the file open. Hoisting the loop into its own helper to convert fgets fixes it. Refs libakstdlib#26, libakstdlib#38 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Stop a scalar created inside a scope costing value-pool slots A scalar now lives in the variable record (`akbasic_Variable::inlinevalue`) rather than drawing from the value pool, so a `GOSUB` local, a `FOR` counter and a `DEF` parameter cost nothing at all. The pool is a bump allocator with no free, and its comment justified that with "nothing in BASIC destroys a variable". Scope exit does: it marks the variable slot unused, `new_variable()` memsets the slot it hands back -- clearing `values` -- and `variable_init()` therefore took *fresh* slots for a variable whose old ones were still counted. Every scope that created a local leaked, with no diagnostic until the pool ran dry on whichever line happened to be unlucky. Six thousand `GOSUB`s creating one local used to die on the 4091st at `LOC# = 1` with "Array of 1 elements does not fit in the 0 remaining value slots". They now run. A `DEF` called eight thousand times used to die between the four and five thousandth -- the leaking slot was the call scope's parameter, which is a scalar -- and both forms now run. A game creating one name per tick was dead in half a minute; the Breakout in examples/ was, after twenty-five seconds. **A `@` name is the one exclusion, and it is the whole of it.** A structure or a pointer to one keeps pool storage, because a pointer into a record outlives the scope that DIMmed it -- docs/16-structures.md says nothing is reclaimed and `prev_environment()` relies on it. The name suffix is the right test rather than `structtype`, which the DIM path sets *after* calling `variable_init()`. A local array therefore still leaks, deliberately, and is now the narrow rule the tutorial teaches. `SWAP` needed the other half: it copies whole variable records, so the `values` pointer that came over named the other variable's inline slot -- which by then held this variable's own old value -- and SWAP silently did nothing. Caught by tests/language/housekeeping/verbs.bas, which is the golden corpus earning its keep. tests/value_pool.c is the new coverage. It asserts the mechanism as well as the consequence: a later change that moved arrays inline too would pass every behavioural case and quietly break the pointer guarantee. The sharpest case takes the pool's whole 4096 slots in four arrays after two hundred scope entries, so one leaked slot has nowhere to go. Chapter 17 Step 3 taught "declare every name at the top" and no longer needs to. It now teaches what is still true -- a name first seen inside a subroutine dies at RETURN, so a routine cannot answer its caller through one -- and its demonstration is the array case, which still fails.

Port the BASIC interpreter from Go to C Reproduces deps/basicinterpret in C, in the idiom of the ak* libraries. All 41 .bas files in the reference's corpus produce byte-identical stdout, including the trailing double newline on an error line -- that comes from basicError building a string ending in \n and handing it to Println, and array_outofbounds.txt encodes it. The corpus is driven in place from the submodule as 41 individual CTest cases rather than copied, so it cannot drift from upstream. Eighteen unit tests cover what the corpus cannot reach. Three structural changes carry most of the work. Go's three reflection lookups (Command*, Function*, ParseCommand*) become one sorted dispatch table in src/verbs.c searched with bsearch; adding a verb is a row and two functions. The five Go maps become one fixed open-addressed table over aksl_strhash_djb2. And run(), which owned the process until MODE_QUIT, splits into step() plus a bounded run() -- goal 3 requires a host game to be able to bound execution, and nothing in the library now terminates the process or touches SDL. Output goes through an akbasic_TextSink vtable. src/sink_stdio.c is what makes the corpus runnable with no SDL present; the akgl-backed sink is still to come and is blocked on libakgl having no text-measurement call. src/convert.c exists because libakstdlib's aksl_ato* family cannot report a conversion failure (its TODO.md 2.1.5). The reference checks strconv's error at four sites and turns it into a BASIC error; routing those through aksl_atoi would have turned four diagnosable errors into wrong answers, with VAL("garbage") quietly returning 0. TODO.md 1.9 records which libakstdlib calls are cleared for use here and which are not. Reference defects are reproduced, not fixed: the golden files encode the observed behaviour and a silent correction is a behaviour change. TODO.md section 6 lists sixteen, and tests/known_reference_defects.c asserts the *correct* contract for six of them under AKBASIC_KNOWN_FAILING_TESTS, so a fix shows up as "unexpectedly passed". Five of the sixteen were found by this port and are new: subtraction stops after one operator so 1-2-3 computes 1-2 and abandons the rest of the line (a wrong answer, not a refused one); a unary-minus argument inflates a function's arity so ABS(-9) is rejected; a comparison operator in a line's final column is dropped; hex literals never survive the scanner; and the "Reserved word in variable name" check is dead code. Where the reference reaches undefined behaviour by a route that is defined in Go -- an out-of-range shift, a negative string multiplier, integer division by zero -- this raises instead of inheriting the UB. No golden case exercises any of them. The top-level CMakeLists shadows add_test, set_tests_properties and add_custom_target around all three add_subdirectory calls. Without it libakerror's tests land in our suite as Not Run, and its un-namespaced `coverage` target stops a coverage build from configuring at all.

The pool is a bump allocator with no free, and its comment justified that with "nothing in BASIC destroys a variable". Scope exit does: it marks the variable slot unused, `new_variable()` memsets the slot it hands back -- clearing `values` -- and `variable_init()` therefore took *fresh* slots for a variable whose old ones were still counted. Every scope that created a local leaked, with no diagnostic until the pool ran dry on whichever line happened to be unlucky. Six thousand `GOSUB`s creating one local used to die on the 4091st at `LOC# = 1` with "Array of 1 elements does not fit in the 0 remaining value slots". They now run. A `DEF` called eight thousand times used to die between the four and five thousandth -- the leaking slot was the call scope's parameter, which is a scalar -- and both forms now run. A game creating one name per tick was dead in half a minute; the Breakout in examples/ was, after twenty-five seconds. **A `@` name is the one exclusion, and it is the whole of it.** A structure or a pointer to one keeps pool storage, because a pointer into a record outlives the scope that DIMmed it -- docs/16-structures.md says nothing is reclaimed and `prev_environment()` relies on it. The name suffix is the right test rather than `structtype`, which the DIM path sets *after* calling `variable_init()`. A local array therefore still leaks, deliberately, and is now the narrow rule the tutorial teaches. `SWAP` needed the other half: it copies whole variable records, so the `values` pointer that came over named the other variable's inline slot -- which by then held this variable's own old value -- and SWAP silently did nothing. Caught by tests/language/housekeeping/verbs.bas, which is the golden corpus earning its keep. tests/value_pool.c is the new coverage. It asserts the mechanism as well as the consequence: a later change that moved arrays inline too would pass every behavioural case and quietly break the pointer guarantee. The sharpest case takes the pool's whole 4096 slots in four arrays after two hundred scope entries, so one leaked slot has nowhere to go. Chapter 17 Step 3 taught "declare every name at the top" and no longer needs to. It now teaches what is still true -- a name first seen inside a subroutine dies at RETURN, so a routine cannot answer its caller through one -- and its demonstration is the array case, which still fails. TODO.md section 6 item 30 and section 9 item 1, both struck. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: Andrew Kesterson <andrew@aklabs.net>

Port the BASIC interpreter from Go to C Reproduces deps/basicinterpret in C, in the idiom of the ak* libraries. All 41 .bas files in the reference's corpus produce byte-identical stdout, including the trailing double newline on an error line -- that comes from basicError building a string ending in \n and handing it to Println, and array_outofbounds.txt encodes it. The corpus is driven in place from the submodule as 41 individual CTest cases rather than copied, so it cannot drift from upstream. Eighteen unit tests cover what the corpus cannot reach. Three structural changes carry most of the work. Go's three reflection lookups (Command*, Function*, ParseCommand*) become one sorted dispatch table in src/verbs.c searched with bsearch; adding a verb is a row and two functions. The five Go maps become one fixed open-addressed table over aksl_strhash_djb2. And run(), which owned the process until MODE_QUIT, splits into step() plus a bounded run() -- goal 3 requires a host game to be able to bound execution, and nothing in the library now terminates the process or touches SDL. Output goes through an akbasic_TextSink vtable. src/sink_stdio.c is what makes the corpus runnable with no SDL present; the akgl-backed sink is still to come and is blocked on libakgl having no text-measurement call. src/convert.c exists because libakstdlib's aksl_ato* family cannot report a conversion failure (its TODO.md 2.1.5). The reference checks strconv's error at four sites and turns it into a BASIC error; routing those through aksl_atoi would have turned four diagnosable errors into wrong answers, with VAL("garbage") quietly returning 0. TODO.md 1.9 records which libakstdlib calls are cleared for use here and which are not. Reference defects are reproduced, not fixed: the golden files encode the observed behaviour and a silent correction is a behaviour change. TODO.md section 6 lists sixteen, and tests/known_reference_defects.c asserts the *correct* contract for six of them under AKBASIC_KNOWN_FAILING_TESTS, so a fix shows up as "unexpectedly passed". Five of the sixteen were found by this port and are new: subtraction stops after one operator so 1-2-3 computes 1-2 and abandons the rest of the line (a wrong answer, not a refused one); a unary-minus argument inflates a function's arity so ABS(-9) is rejected; a comparison operator in a line's final column is dropped; hex literals never survive the scanner; and the "Reserved word in variable name" check is dead code. Where the reference reaches undefined behaviour by a route that is defined in Go -- an out-of-range shift, a negative string multiplier, integer division by zero -- this raises instead of inheriting the UB. No golden case exercises any of them. The top-level CMakeLists shadows add_test, set_tests_properties and add_custom_target around all three add_subdirectory calls. Without it libakerror's tests land in our suite as Not Run, and its un-namespaced `coverage` target stops a coverage build from configuring at all.

Add records: TYPE, DIM ... AS, field access, copy on assign BASIC 7.0 has no records at all, so none of this is a port. The `@` suffix was not invented either: the Go reference reserved IDENTIFIER_STRUCT and never used it, and src/grammar.c rendered such a leaf as "NOT IMPLEMENTED" until now. Declaring the type is what buys the storage model. A TYPE states its fields, so an instance has a known slot count and is laid out exactly as an array is -- one contiguous run from the same value pool DIM already draws from, with field access as offset arithmetic. No new pool holds data; the only new table holds descriptors. A nested value flattens into its container's run, which is why LINE with two POINTs and a string is five slots rather than three. Each field takes its type from its own suffix, the same rule every other name here follows, so a field list needs no type column. An `@` field is the exception and has to name its type, because three primitive types fit in three suffix characters and N declared types do not fit in one. The declaration is prescanned before the program runs, like labels and DATA and for the same reason: it has to be in effect wherever control goes. Three passes, each for a case the one before cannot do -- names first so a field can refer to a type declared later, then field lists, then sizes by repeated resolution. What never resolves is a cycle of by-value containment, so "a TYPE cannot contain itself by value" is a diagnosis rather than an assumption, and the message says to use PTR TO instead. Assignment copies. That interception is the whole feature and it cannot live in akbasic_value_clone(), which copies one slot -- and one slot holds a *reference* to an instance rather than the instance, so going through it would alias. A structure is intercepted before that path and its slots are copied one at a time, walking the descriptor rather than memcpy-ing the run, because a pointer field must copy its reference where a value field must copy its slots. Two smaller things the work required. All three prescans now sit inside one ATTEMPT: a malformed declaration is the program's mistake, and it was printing a stack trace and taking the driver with it, which is the boundary goal 3 exists to draw. And a fresh variable's structtype is -1 rather than the 0 a memset leaves, because 0 is a valid type index and every new variable was claiming to be the first type declared.

The corpus is driven in place from the submodule as 41 individual CTest cases rather than copied, so it cannot drift from upstream. Eighteen unit tests cover what the corpus cannot reach. Three structural changes carry most of the work. Go's three reflection lookups (Command*, Function*, ParseCommand*) become one sorted dispatch table in src/verbs.c searched with bsearch; adding a verb is a row and two functions. The five Go maps become one fixed open-addressed table over aksl_strhash_djb2. And run(), which owned the process until MODE_QUIT, splits into step() plus a bounded run() -- goal 3 requires a host game to be able to bound execution, and nothing in the library now terminates the process or touches SDL. Output goes through an akbasic_TextSink vtable. src/sink_stdio.c is what makes the corpus runnable with no SDL present; the akgl-backed sink is still to come and is blocked on libakgl having no text-measurement call. src/convert.c exists because libakstdlib's aksl_ato* family cannot report a conversion failure (its TODO.md 2.1.5). The reference checks strconv's error at four sites and turns it into a BASIC error; routing those through aksl_atoi would have turned four diagnosable errors into wrong answers, with VAL("garbage") quietly returning 0. TODO.md 1.9 records which libakstdlib calls are cleared for use here and which are not. Reference defects are reproduced, not fixed: the golden files encode the observed behaviour and a silent correction is a behaviour change. TODO.md section 6 lists sixteen, and tests/known_reference_defects.c asserts the *correct* contract for six of them under AKBASIC_KNOWN_FAILING_TESTS, so a fix shows up as "unexpectedly passed". Five of the sixteen were found by this port and are new: subtraction stops after one operator so 1-2-3 computes 1-2 and abandons the rest of the line (a wrong answer, not a refused one); a unary-minus argument inflates a function's arity so ABS(-9) is rejected; a comparison operator in a line's final column is dropped; hex literals never survive the scanner; and the "Reserved word in variable name" check is dead code. Where the reference reaches undefined behaviour by a route that is defined in Go -- an out-of-range shift, a negative string multiplier, integer division by zero -- this raises instead of inheriting the UB. No golden case exercises any of them. The top-level CMakeLists shadows add_test, set_tests_properties and add_custom_target around all three add_subdirectory calls. Without it libakerror's tests land in our suite as Not Run, and its un-namespaced `coverage` target stops a coverage build from configuring at all. Test targets are akbasic_test_<name>: bare test_<name> collides with libakstdlib's, which is what broke libakgl's configure in c2b16d3. ctest 59/59; ASan+UBSan 59/59; 92.3% line and 96.9% function coverage; no warnings under -Wall -Wextra. Branch coverage is not a target, for the reason libakstdlib and libakgl both record: the akerror macros expand into large branch trees at every call site.

Port onto libakstdlib 2b79aca and convert the eight bool predicates akbasic's src/ now calls libakstdlib 313 times and raw libc 7 -- 2.2% bypassed, against 86.4% on the same tree before this. The submodule bump 669b2b3 -> 2b79aca needed no source change of its own: the release is drop-in for what akbasic already used. Seven of the eight sites the earlier port left on raw libc change their own signature rather than swallowing an error, per andrew's ruling on libakstdlib#38. word_is, the is_waiting_for pair, the scanner's is_at_end, peek, peek_next and match_next_char, format.c's overflow, and sink_akgl's scroll/newline/putchar_at/echo_line/edit_key chain all return an akerr_ErrorContext * and hand the answer back through an out parameter. is_waiting_for and is_waiting_for_any are a public header change; every call site that used one as a term in a condition hoists it into a statement first. verb_compare is the eighth and stays on strcmp. bsearch(3) fixes the comparator's signature, so there is no out parameter to report through -- which is what libakstdlib#38 concluded. It carries a comment saying so and saying why the bypass is safe there. Six snprintf sites stay raw because they want truncation as an answer rather than an error, and aksl_snprintf cannot express that until libakstdlib#34 hands the required length back. Each of the six says so at the site. Two of them, in host.c, are a latent defect rather than a decision: a host type name over 31 characters truncates silently and two sharing a prefix then collide, where structtype.c refuses the same case. DLOAD leaked a file descriptor. Its read loop sat inside an ATTEMPT and the PASS in it returned past CLEANUP, so a scan error left the file open. Hoisting the loop into its own helper to convert fgets fixes it. Refs libakstdlib#26, libakstdlib#38 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
