- 'var' has some weird scoping connotations with users of JS. better to change it to 'let', which will decide whether to make the variable a local or a global
- 'func' looks visually appealing lol
- some minor refactoring done in cparse.c
Errors are now handled very differently, parser errors and VM errors are now treated the same.
When cosmoV_error is called, cosmoV_throw is also called, which formats the error object and sets the panic state.
state->error now points to the latest CObjError when state->panic is true. To get a nice formatted Objection message, use
cosmoV_printError() and pass the state->error. pcall() was added to the standard base library. When called, the first argument
passed is called with the subsequent arguments given. If the call completed successfully, `true`,`nil` is returned. However
when an error occurs during the call, `false`,`<error>` is returned. Simply print the `<error>` to retrieve the error string.
- added OP_MOD, which performs a modulo operation on the 2 <number> values on the stack. Pops the 2 values and pushes the result.
- also added TOKEN_PERCENT to the lexer, and extended binary() in cparse.c to support it.
a LoopState was added to the CCompilerState struct which keeps track of breaks, start chunk index, and the start scope of the active loop.
Also, break.cosmo was added to the examples directory, 'continue' and 'break' work as expected.
__iter and __next are now reserved IStrings, OP_NEXT and OP_ITER have also been added. A new token (TOKEN_IN) has been added to the lexer. The parser now supports the for each loop (for i, ... in <object> do ... end).
savedPushed has been removed from the CCompilerState struct.
Objects are now separate from {} dictionaries
the . operator now only indexes fields on objects, the [] operator can only be used on objects if the __index or __newindex functions are defined
Additionally 4 new instructions have been added to the VM: OP_NEWDICT, OP_INDEX, OP_INCINDEX, and OP_NEWINDEX.
The syntax to create a dictionary is as follows { <key> : <value>, <otherkey> : <othervalue> } eg. { "hello" : "world", "foo" : 1337 }
The Lexer & Parser was extended to add the TOKEN_COLON ':' token.
