# Important Notes
#### The Plot
- there used to be two kinds of benchmarks: in Java and in Enso
- those in Java got quite a good treatment
- there even are results updated daily: https://enso-org.github.io/engine-benchmark-results/
- the benchmarks written in Enso used to be 2nd class citizen
#### The Revelation
This PR has the potential to fix it all!
- It designs new [Bench API](88fd6fb988) ready for non-batch execution
- It allows for _single benchmark in a dedicated JVM_ execution
- It provides a simple way to wrap such an Enso benchmark as a Java benchmark
- thus the results of Enso and Java benchmarks are [now unified](https://github.com/enso-org/enso/pull/7101#discussion_r1257504440)
Long live _single benchmarking infrastructure for Java and Enso_!
The current instructions to _build, use and debug_ `project-manager` and its engine/ls process are complicated and require a lot of symlinks to properly point to each other. This pull requests simplifies all of that by introduction of `ENSO_ENGINE_PATH` and `ENSO_JVM_PATH` environment variables. Then it hides all the complexity behind a simple _sbt command_: `runProjectManagerDistribution --debug`.
# Important Notes
I decided to tackle this problem as I have three repositories with different branches of Enso and switching between them requires me to mangle the symlinks. I hope I will not need to do that anymore with the introduction of the `runProjectManagerDistribution` command.
close#7194
Changelog:
- add: `/projects/{project_id}/enso_project` HTTP endpoint returning an `.enso-project` archive structure
- update: archive enso project to a `.enso-project` `.tar.gz` archive
- update: make project `path` a required field
part of #7178
Changelog:
- add: `text/fileModifiedOnDisk` notification
- update: during the auto-save, check if the file is modified on disk and send the notification. I.e. auto-save does not overwrite the file if it was changed on disk (but the save command does)
- update: IDE handles the file-modified-on-disk notification and reloads the module from disk
# Important Notes
Currently, the auto-save (and the check that the file is modified on disk) is triggered only after the file was edited. The proper check (using the file-watcher service) will be added in the next PR
https://github.com/enso-org/enso/assets/357683/ff91f3e6-2f7a-4c01-a745-98cb140e1964
`executionFailed` instead is sent when an evaulation finishes with a a critical failure or a non-critical error.
The PR tries to miniminally modify the change in the messages exchange so as to avoid a major redesign at this point.
Closes#7002.
# Important Notes
Unblocks IDE which will need to modify to this new setup.
Fixes#6955 by:
- using `visualisationModule` to specify the module where the visualization is to be used
- referring to method in `Meta.get_annotation` with `.method_name` - e.g. unresolved symbol notation
- evaluating arguments to `Meta.get_annotation` in the context of the user module (which can access the extension functions)
Several small changes:
- Dropdowns: Populate `GridView` lazily (fixes#6865).
- Clear disconnected edges when editing node (fixes case 1 in #7018).
- Fix regression in node selection rendering (2nd bug in #6975).
- Update profiler docs. The hotkey to *prOfile without exiting* is now `Ctrl+Alt+O` (`Ctrl+Alt+P` has been requisitioned by the CB).
Node selection:
| Pre-`Rectangle` | This PR |
| --- | --- |
|  |  |
# Important Notes
- `Rectangle`: When `inset > border`, the extra space is now between the body and the border, not outside the border.
- More robust node layering logic. Now an inconsistent layer order cannot occur, even if something strange happens (like editing an expression and an edge at the same time).
- The dynamic drop down in the `drop_down` example scene doesn't show any entries before (or after) this, so I can't test the dynamic case.
close#6800
Update the `executionContext/expressionUpdates` notification and send the list of not applied arguments in addition to the method pointer.
# Important Notes
IDE is updated to support the new API.
Adds TypeScript style guide.
# Important Notes
This is more or less a straight port from Rust; I think the goal should be to make this a sort of living document which changes as the TypeScript parts of the codebase become more mature.
Several sections have been removed as they do not apply to the TypeScript codebase. Of note is the section about vertically aligning type annotations, local variable declarations and match arms.
close#6232
Changelog:
- remove: `SqlVersionsRepo`
- update: `SuggestionsDatabaseModuleUpdateNotification` message removing the version
- update: cleanup versions repo usages in the language server
close#6080
Changelog
- add: implement `SuggestionsRepo.insertAll` as a batch SQL insert
- update: `search/getSuggestionsDatabase` returns empty suggestions. Currently, the method is only used at startup and returns the empty response anyway because the libs are not loaded at that point.
- update: serialize only global (defined in the module scope) suggestions during the distribution building. There's no sense in storing the local library suggestions.
- update: sqlite dependency
- remove: unused methods from `SuggestionsRepo`
- remove: Arguments table
# Important Notes
Speeds up libraries loading by ~1 second.
close#5874
Changelog:
- add: `isStatic` parameter to `search/completion` request to search by the `static` suggestion attribute
- update: search non-static suggestions when opening component browser
# Important Notes
Component browser doesn't show `Table.new` and `Table.from_rows` suggestions when a `Table` node is selected.
Some small improvements relating to rendering:
- Add a debug option: `-debug.pixel-read-period`. This can be used to measure the performance impact of checking the pointer location on different hardware. [On my development box, it makes no difference to performance.] (Closes#5490).
- Unbind pixel pack buffers after each use. This is recommended practice. It has no performance impact on my machine, and allows SpectorJS to run (`-debug.enable-spector`). (Closes#5941).
Also, simplify the profiling CLI: the `profile.load-profile` and `profile.save-profile` options have been renamed to `profile.load`/`profile.save`; `profile.save` now has a default filename, so you can capture a profile at any time in Electron with Ctrl+Alt+P and it will be written to `profile.json`.
Implement new Enso documentation parser; remove old Scala Enso parser.
Performance: Total time parsing documentation is now ~2ms.
# Important Notes
- Doc parsing is now done only in the frontend.
- Some engine tests had never been switched to the new parser. We should investigate tests that don't pass after the switch: #5894.
- The option to run the old searcher has been removed, as it is obsolete and was already broken before this (see #5909).
- Some interfaces used only by the old searcher have been removed.
This change downgrades hashing algorithm used in caching IR and library bindings to SHA-1. It is sufficient and significantly faster for the purpose of simple checksum we use it for.
Additionally, don't calculate the digest for serialized bytes - if we get the expected object type then we are confident about the integrity.
Don't initialize Jackson's ObjectMapper for every metadata serialization/de-serialization. Initialization is very costly.
Avoid unnecessary conversions between Scala and Java. Those back-and-forth `asScala` and `asJava` are pretty expensive.
Finally fix an SBT warning when generating library cache.
Closes https://github.com/enso-org/enso/issues/5763
# Important Notes
The change cuts roughly 0.8-1s from the overall startup.
This change will certainly lead to invalidation of existing caches. It is advised to simply start with a clean slate.
This change adds serialization and deserialization of library bindings.
In order to be functional, one needs to first generate IR and
serialize bindings using `--compiled <path-to-library>` command. The bindings
will be stored under the library with `.bindings` suffix.
Bindings are being generated during `buildEngineDistribution` task, thus not
requiring any extra steps.
When resolving import/exports the compiler will first try to load
module's bindings from cache. If successful, it will not schedule its
imports/exports for immediate compilation, as we always did, but use the
bindings info to infer the dependent modules.
The current change does not make any optimizations when it comes to
compiling the modules, yet. It only delays the actual
compilation/loading IR from cache so that it can be done in bulk.
Further optimizations will come from this opportunity such as parallel
loading of caches or lazily inferring only the necessary modules.

Older versions of `Powershell (5.x)` do not support running the `run` command, so you need to replace it with a higher version of `Powershell (7.x)` or use `cmd`
Automating the assembly of the engine and its execution into a single task. If you are modifying standard libraries, engine sources or Enso tests, you can launch `sbt` and then just:
```
sbt:enso> runEngineDistribution --run test/Tests/src/Data/Maybe_Spec.enso
[info] Engine package created at built-distribution/enso-engine-0.0.0-dev-linux-amd64/enso-0.0.0-dev
[info] Executing built-distribution/enso-engine-...-dev/bin/enso --run test/Tests/src/Data/Maybe_Spec.enso
Maybe: [5/5, 30ms]
- should have a None variant [14ms]
- should have a Some variant [5ms]
- should provide the `maybe` function [4ms]
- should provide `is_some` [2ms]
- should provide `is_none` [3ms]
5 tests succeeded.
0 tests failed.unEngineDistribution 4s
0 tests skipped.
```
the [runEngineDistribution](3a581f29ee/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md (running-enso)) `sbt` input task makes sure all your sources are properly compiled and only then executes your enso source. Everything ready at a single press of Enter.
# Important Notes
To debug in chrome dev tools, just add `--inspect`:
```
sbt:enso> runEngineDistribution --inspect --run test/Tests/src/Data/Maybe_Spec.enso
E.g. in Chrome open: devtools://devtools/bundled/js_app.html?ws=127.0.0.1:9229/7JsgjXlntK8
```
everything gets build and one can just attach the Enso debugger.
Closes#5036
Move the logic that looks up method pointers from the language server to IDE. This way we can keep the suggestion updates and expression updates async, otherwise it will hurt the initial startup time of LS.
Fixes the issue when some expression updates does not contain the method pointer.
Start `project-manager` with following options to provide first 20s of the startup sequence:
```
$ project-manager --profiling-events-log-path=start.log --profiling-path=start.npss --profiling-time=20
```
once the `start.log` and `start.npss` files are generated (next to each other), open them in GraalVM's VisualVM:
```
$ graalvm/bin/jvisualvm --openfile start.npss
```
analyze.
VCS restore operation was correctly restoring the state of projects to the requested commit. Unfortunately, after the operation file system was becoming out-of-sync with language server's buffers (and IDE's content versions).
A few important changes are introduced here that complicate the interaction between components:
1) `vcs restore` returns an actual diff between the current state and the
requested commit
2) the response is forwarded to buffer registry first rather than to the client
3) the diff is used to identify appropriate collaborative editors and
notify them about the need to reload buffers from file system
4) all clients of affected open buffers are notified of the change via
`text/didChange` notification. If a file was removed and there were open buffers for it, clients will be notified via `file/event` and editor will be stopped
5) only then the client is notified about a successful restore operation
This PR addresses one of the two problems reported in https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/184097084.
# Important Notes
We need to make sure that IDE correctly responds to `text/didChange` notifications.
`Any.==` is a builtin method. The semantics is the same as it used to be, except that we no longer assume `x == y` iff `Meta.is_same_object x y`, which used to be the case and caused failures in table tests.
# Important Notes
Measurements from `EqualsBenchmarks` shows that the performance of `Any.==` for recursive atoms increased by roughly 20%, and the performance for primitive types stays roughly the same.
Apparently
```
git --git-dir .enso/.vcs log refs/heads/master
fatal: ambiguous argument 'refs/heads/master': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
```
but
```
git --git-dir .enso/.vcs log HEAD
fatal: ambiguous argument 'refs/heads/master': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
```
works just fine on Windows.
Added some safeguards to avoid propagating weird errors because of retrieving element from an
empty Option.
Allow arbitrary expression evaluation in the chromeinspector console. Moreover, allow modifications of any variable in any stack frame.
# Important Notes
- Implement inline parsing in `EnsoLanguage.parse(InlineParsingRequest)`.
- Debugging experience is affected by this [bug in Truffle](https://github.com/oracle/graal/issues/5513), which causes NPEs when a host object gets into chromeinspector. I tried to implement a workaround, but it does not work all the time. Nevertheless, it should not matter that much - if there is a NPE in the debugger, you can just ignore it, as it should be concealed in the debugger and should not be propagted outside. See comments in the `docs/debugger`.
