2026-10-21feat(codegen): instantiate class templates_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-20refactor(strings): replace compiler builtins with the STRING library_ov4
Construct literals as STRING values and route string operations through ordinary library functions and operators. Preserve value ownership in records, arrays, constants and file I/O. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-18feat(classes): add copy constructors and statement-scoped temporaries_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(codegen): declare and call EXTERN C functions_ov4
Variadic arguments must be C values and receive C default argument promotions; narrow integer parameters carry sign/zero extension. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(classes): overload methods and NEW constructors_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(driver): compile multiple source files with INCLUDE visibility_ov4
Reject builds without an entry program and duplicate cross-file definitions. Preserve source order for each unit's own constants and import visible exports. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(classes): allocate objects with NEW and rebind named class variables_ov4

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(classes): support explicit NEW constructor method calls_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-17feat(classes): support ordinary member methods and this references_ov4
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-10-16fix(compiler): correct CIE semantics and diagnostic locations_ov4
Use standard WHILE headers and default-public class fields, resolve pseudocode identifiers without case sensitivity, and check signed i64 literal boundaries before conversion. Preserve source locations across recursive emission and function diagnostics. Add 22 regression cases and update compiler examples and documentation. Validated all 69 CTest entries with the original Linux Actions seed and verified the release package's embedded, native and IR output paths.

2026-10-13Refactor record fields to preserve visibility and share parsing_ov4

2026-07-26fix: close type-safety holes found by adversarial review; update docs_ov4
Review findings (all reproduced, then fixed and re-verified): - '^x' leaked as a raw address into any builtin context (s <- ^x printed the variable's bytes as a C string; NOT ^x, '&', and ^x = ^x compiled). Address-of is now rejected everywhere except a pointer-typed target. - A whole-array variable passed the nominal gate as a value of its ELEMENT type (s <- arrayOfSeason stored the raw data pointer; = on it emitted invalid IR). Whole arrays are now rejected as operands and as coercion sources; array parameters are unaffected. - Enum values smuggled into INTEGER through array subscripts and DECLARE bounds (a[Autumn], ARRAY[Spring:Winter]); both now go through emitCoercedExpr like every other INTEGER context. - An array DECLAREd inside an IF/WHILE/REPEAT/FOR body and used after the block was a wild-pointer write (constant bounds) or a verifier dump (runtime bounds). Arrays are now block-scoped: control-flow bodies snapshot and restore the ArrayTable, so escape is a clean compile error. - Duplicate parameter names silently shadowed (BYREF write-back defeated); now a parse error. Trailing comma in parameter lists accepted; now a parse error consistent with every other list. - A variable/array/parameter/function could reuse a TYPE name; reserved. - RETURN with a value inside a PROCEDURE was silently discarded (control did not return); now an error, as is a bare RETURN in a FUNCTION. - INPUT r.f mis-parsed into a three-error cascade; now one clear error. - Assigning to an enum constant now says so instead of 'Unknown variable'. Docs: ARCH/CONVENTIONS/EXTENDING/SUBSYSTEMS/PITFALLS rewritten for the TYPE system (ABI additions, nominal-typing invariants, admission-gate doors, array-parameter ABI, new recipes, new sharp edges); README features/TODO updated โ€” random files are unblocked.

2026-07-26feat: records with designator lvalues, and pointer types (CIE 4.1/4.2)_ov4
- New CodeGen::emitLValue resolves any designator โ€” variable, checked array element, record field chain (CreateStructGEP via the record payload), pointer deref (with the null-pointer [Fatal] check) โ€” to an address + type name; loadFromLValue centralizes the rvalue read and the STRING null->"" guard, so zero-initialized STRING fields read as "". - Designator assignment stores through emitLValue + emitCoercedExpr; whole-record copies (r2 <- r1, array elements, BYVAL args, RETURN) are aggregate loads/stores with name-checked admission. - getExprTypeInfo walks designator chains statically (field types from the record payload, deref to the pointee), so records/pointers type correctly in every expression context. - Address-of ^x admits into a pointer target only when the designator's type name equals the declared pointee exactly (nominal, strict: the guide's own ^INTEGER-at-a-Season example is a compile error by design); ^arr[i] and ^rec.field work through the same lvalue path. - Verified: the guide's ยง4.2 StudentRecord example (minus DATE), nested records, arrays of records with Form[i].YearGroup writes, record BYREF/BYVAL params, NodePtr = ^Node forward reference with writes through n1.Next^.Data, unset-pointer deref dying with [Fatal].

2026-07-26feat: user type registry and enumerated types (CIE 4.1/4.2)_ov4
- TypeSystem: TypeKinds Enum/Record/Pointer with per-kind payloads and checked accessors; two-pass registration (names first, then definitions in source order) so pointer TYPEs may forward-reference; enum-constant table owned by TypeSystem so constants stay visible inside function bodies across the Symbols save/clear/restore. Dead surface removed (Custom kind, Printable/Builtin/ReferenceLike, ElementSize, hasType, CodeGen::getNamedValue/getLLVMType). - Enums are i64 with 0-based ordinals (constexpr kEnumOrdinalBase); all type identity is by NAME. New emitCoercedExpr is the single admission gate, replacing raw coercion at assignments, array stores, BYVAL args, RETURN, IF/WHILE/REPEAT/FOR operands, file operands and builtin args; coerceValueToType now hard-errors if a user-kind target reaches it. - Binary ops with user-kind operands are intercepted ahead of ArithmeticHandler ('&'-intercept precedent): same-enum comparisons, enum +/- INTEGER (with a runtime range check, [Fatal] on overflow, the only site that can manufacture an invalid ordinal), same-name pointer =/<>; everything else is a compile error naming the operator. - OUTPUT is an exhaustive switch over TypeKind (enum prints its ordinal; record/pointer are compile errors, also covering whole-array OUTPUT); INPUT's silent %lld fallback for unknown kinds is now an explicit error. - Enum value names are globally reserved: collisions with DECLARE, array names, parameters and function names are compile errors. - RuntimeCheck: emitEnumRangeCheck + emitNullDerefCheck (used by the pointer phase) following the emitIndexCheck recipe.
