Hello world!

[Fedor Indutny]

Hello!

Development of VM is going on, and soon I'll start working on runtime optimizations (on-stack replacement). But to start developing this, stability of language semantics and syntax is highly required.

This is why I'm asking you to express your feelings about Candor here: what seems to be wrong to you, what features are missing, etc.

Things that I'm especially really worried about:

• C++ API ( documented here: https://github.com/indutny/candor/blob/master/API.md )
• __$trace() ( commited : https://github.com/indutny/candor/commit/d3602c04dc4e2073ea3f4b3388a7778e92c12693 )
• Exceptions and error handling ( discussed here: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/candorlang/Nr7bF_YQKvU/im1vflxplHMJ )

Though, any other feedback is very important too!

Thank you,

Fedor.

To keep results of various discussions in one place, here is some improvements that I decided to do:

1. sizeof fn === number of arguments
2. vararg ES-harmony syntax a(x, y, z...) { } and a(x, y, z...) . I'll consider implementing a(x, y..., z) if it doesn't add a lot of complexity.

Cheers,

Fedor.

If it is too much complexity, the C++ API is always varargs, so I could implement Function.bind, and Object:new in C++ for example .

Implemented both of this features, see particular topics for commit ranges.

Cheers,

Fedor.
