Add builtins: @sqrt, @sin, @cos, @tan, @exp, @log, @abs, @floor, @ceil, @round, @trunc, @rem, @mod, @divFloor, @divTrunc, @shlExact, @shrExact, @setFloatMode, @call (multi-arg), @shuffle (multi-arg). Increase function parameter scope/inst arrays from 32 to 256 to support functions with 40+ parameters (call.zig corpus test). Add COMPTIME_REASON_CALL_MODIFIER and COMPTIME_REASON_SHUFFLE_MASK. Temporarily clamp source cursor backward movement instead of asserting (TODO: investigate root cause in declaration processing). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
About
zig0 aspires to be an interpreter of zig 0.15.2 written in C.
This is written with help from LLM:
- Lexer:
- Datastructures 100% human.
- Helper functions 100% human.
- Lexing functions 50/50 human/bot.
- Parser:
- Datastructures 100% human.
- Helper functions 50/50.
- Parser functions 5/95 human/bot.
- AstGen: TBD.
Testing
Quick test:
zig build fmt-zig0 test-zig0
Full test and static analysis with all supported compilers and valgrind (run before commit, takes a while):
zig build all-zig0 -Dvalgrind
Debugging tips
Test runs infinitely? Build the test program executable:
$ zig build test-zig0 -Dzig0-no-exec
And then run it, capturing the stack trace:
gdb -batch \
-ex "python import threading; threading.Timer(1.0, lambda: gdb.post_event(lambda: gdb.execute('interrupt'))).start()" \
-ex run \
-ex "bt full" \
-ex quit \
zig-out/bin/test
You are welcome to replace -ex "bt full" with anything other of interest.
