Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2017-04-22	slicing now returns correct const-ness	Andrew Kelley
	also remove the ability to override constness when slicing closes #334
2017-04-21	update syntax for try and nullable unwrapping	Andrew Kelley
	closes #285
2017-04-21	remove `?return` and `?defer`	Andrew Kelley
	closes #309
2017-04-14	comptime ({}) should not get an implicit semicolon	Josh Wolfe
	closes #292.
2017-04-13	Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/parser'	Andrew Kelley

2017-04-13	typedefpocalypse	Andrew Kelley
	closes #314
2017-04-12	block statement lists never get fake expressions	Josh Wolfe
	instead blocks have a field that encodes whether the last statement ended with a semicolon.
2017-04-13	ability to inline at function callsite	Andrew Kelley
	closes #306
2017-04-02	fix else-if parsing	Josh Wolfe
	implicit semicolon rules apply recursively to the "else" clause of if and try if (a) {} else {} // implicit semicolon if (a) {} else if (a) {} // implicit semicolon if (a) {} else while (a) {} // implicit semicolon
2017-04-02	defer without a block body requires a following semicolon	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	add secret void expression after defer statement if it's the last statement ↵	Josh Wolfe
	in a block
2017-04-02	allow implicit semicolon after defer {}	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	variable declarations must be followed by semicolon	Josh Wolfe

2017-04-02	fix confusion in block expression parsing	Josh Wolfe
	closes #292 * if, try, while, for, comptime, defer are "greedy" with {} blocks, meaning if their bodies are blocks, then no suffix operator is allowed after the block. The {} block gets "built into" the containing statement, like the body of a switch statement. * the Expression syntactic element is no longer "greedy" with {} blocks, meaning it's possible to have suffix operators after {} blocks without needing the {} block to be an rhs operand first.
2017-04-02	Require top-level-declaration comptime use {}	Josh Wolfe
	This forbids `comptime 1 comptime 1` at top-level scope.
2017-03-31	clean up analysis of {blocks}	Josh Wolfe
	* Don't insert void statements all over the place. {} now stays as {} instead of {{}}, and {;} becomes {} instead of {{};{}}. * Ensure final statement is always the return value statement, or the block is empty. This means {label:} becomes {label:{}}.
2017-03-26	replace "&&" and "\|\|" with "and" and "or"	Andrew Kelley
	closes #272
2017-03-26	new unreachable syntax	Andrew Kelley
	* `noreturn` is the primitive type. * `unreachable` is a control flow keyword. * `@unreachable()` builtin function is deleted. closes #214
2017-03-26	add comptime top level declaration	Andrew Kelley
	closes #255
2017-03-16	introduce new test syntax	Andrew Kelley
	* remove setFnTest builtin * add test "name" { ... } syntax * remove --check-unused argument. functions are always lazy now.
2017-02-07	inline assembly allows clobbers with no input	Andrew Kelley

2017-02-05	try expression can omit variable assignments	Andrew Kelley

2017-02-04	inline assembly supports `%=` syntax	Andrew Kelley
	it outputs a number that is unique to each instance of the asm statement in the entire compilation. useful when creating local labels and referring to them multiple times in a single template that generates multiple assembler instructions
2017-02-04	remove volatileStore builtin; add volatile pointers	Andrew Kelley
	closes #238
2017-02-03	implement packed structs	Andrew Kelley
	closes #183
2017-02-02	add try expression	Andrew Kelley
	See #83
2017-02-02	remove ability to mark if and switch as inline	Andrew Kelley
	if and switch are implicitly inline if the condition/target expression is known at compile time. instead of: ``` inline if (condition) ... inline switch (target) ... ``` one can use: ``` if (comptime condition) ... switch (comptime target) ... ```
2017-01-23	various fixes	Andrew Kelley
	* comptime expression is a block expression as it should be * fix var args when number of args passed is 0 * implement const value equality for structs * fix indent when rendering container decl AST * IR: prevent duplicate generation of code when it is partially compile-time evaluated * implement compile time struct field pointer evaluation * fix compile time evaluation of slicing
2017-01-23	basic support for functions with variable length arguments	Andrew Kelley
	See #77
2017-01-22	introduce comptime expression	Andrew Kelley
	closes #221
2017-01-22	use comptime instead of inline for var and params	Andrew Kelley
	See #221
2017-01-16	get rid of zeroes literal	Andrew Kelley
	closes #222
2017-01-13	fix some stuff when llvm has assertions on	Andrew Kelley

2016-12-31	IR: progress toward compiling standard library	Andrew Kelley
	* comptime fn call * is_comptime doesn't count as an instruction dependency * update more std code to latest zig
2016-12-18	hello.zig working with all structs anonymous	Andrew Kelley

2016-12-18	IR: all structs anonymous	Andrew Kelley

2016-12-07	IR: add error for assigning runtime value to inline var	Andrew Kelley

2016-12-06	IR: implement defer	Andrew Kelley

2016-12-04	IR: re-organize where state goes to prepare for generics	Andrew Kelley
	* Rip out legacy code for generics * put scope in instruction instead of AST nodes * separate top level decl stuff from AST nodes - remove the assumption that there is a 1:1 correspondence between an output instruction and an AST node - This way we won't have to clone AST nodes for generics.
2016-11-26	IR: add inline goto	Andrew Kelley

2016-11-26	IR: fix parsing while loop	Andrew Kelley

2016-11-26	IR: support inline switch	Andrew Kelley

2016-11-17	IR: pointers to constants don't copy data	Andrew Kelley

2016-11-03	add concept of inline for, inline while, inline var	Andrew Kelley

2016-10-16	IR working for if statements	Andrew Kelley

2016-09-30	empty function compiles successfully with IR	Andrew Kelley

2016-09-28	remove compiler directives	Andrew Kelley
	* add `setFnTest`, `setFnVisible`, `setFnStaticEval`, `setFnNoInline` builtin functions to replace previous directive functionality * add `coldcc` and `nakedcc` as keywords which can be used as part of a function prototype. * `setDebugSafety` builtin can be used to set debug safety features at a per block scope level. * closes #169
2016-09-26	add this keyword refers to thing in immediate scope	Andrew Kelley
	See #169
