Syntax Changes
As we told in #55, we will rebuild parser and add tokenizer phase before that. We're expecting a performance incrementation at least %22.
Pending syntax changes
As a goal of building ellie, we made most of the elements easy to type and easy to read. So from now on growableArray type will change to vector. Containing array word made the type complicated. Also some of the definer syntaxes are changed too.
| TypeName | Old | New | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Array | array(type, size) | [type, size] | [int, 3] |
| Vector | growableArray(type) | [type, *] | [int, *] |
| Collective | collective(key_type, data_type) | {key_type, data_type} | {int, int} |
| Cloak | cloak(first_type, second_type) | (first_type, second_type) | (int, int) |
| Nullable | _type | ?type | ?int |
| ArrowFunction | @(param_name: type)::type | @(type):type | @(int):int |
Old
fn test() > string {}
New
fn test() : string {}
