* Banners for test pools
* Summary with the list of failing tests at the end
* Option to write the list of failing tests to a file
* Option to read the list of tests to run from a file
* Using these two latest features to add a new make target to rerun precisely the tests that failed last time
Rather than tracking how far we are from the project root in the various
Makefile commands, it's much easier to reference the build target with
with an absolute path.
If they're big, they take a long time to instantiate, and if they
consist of a lot of functions, chances are that normalising them will
make them much smaller. This significantly improves type checking
performance for some programs with lots of type level computation going
on.
The threshold is set with %nf_metavar_threshold, but the default value
of 50 is probably fine. Set it to 0 to always normalise metavar
solutions, or something higher than 1000 to essentially never do it.
It's roughly a count of nodes in the typechecked syntax tree under the
first function application.
Written by Volkmar Frinken (@vfrinken). This is intended as a
lightweight (i.e. minimal dependencies) code generator that can be
ported to multiple platforms, especially those with memory constraints.
It shouldn't be expected to be anywhere near as fast as the Scheme back
end, for lots of reasons. The main goal is portability.
* Refactor bootstrap and bootstrap-rkt scripts
* Move the execution of the test phase after bootstrapping from bootstrap
scripts into the Makefile. This allows separate execution of build
and test seperately.
* Solves #125
Instead of dumping the required dynamic libraries in the working
directly, where the executable won't necessarily find them, take the
same approach as the Chez backend and create a subdirectory for the
required runtime files and use a shell script to start up with the right
library paths.
The hack (optimisation?) to normalise integer literals when below some
threshold is fine on the RHS, but on the LHS causes problems since we
need them in normal form for pattern matching. Fixes#112
We also need to separate building the runtests binary from running the
tests, because runtests refers to the boostrap libraries, and the tests
refer to the newly built libraries.
This worked locally, using inconsistent TTC versions for the bootstrap
version and new version, but let's see what it does on a clean machine
