ffi M5.A.next.2a.A: pack typed indexing — lock in Any-untyped miss
Step 2 of the variadic heterogeneous type packs feature: typed runtime indexing (`args[$i]` at comptime-known `$i`). Today's pack-fn body lowers `args[i]` through the `[]Any` slice path — the static type returned is `Any`, so any downstream field access / typed-coercion / further indexing fails the moment it needs more than primitive auto-unboxing. `examples/156-pack-typed-index.sx` pins the simplest visible failure: `args[0].x` on a struct-typed call arg trips "field 'x' not found on type 'Any'" at the field-access site because AST-level type inference for `args[0]` returns Any. Next commit teaches `lowerIndexExpr` (and `inferExprType` for the same shape) to detect an index_expr whose base is a pack-name binding from the enclosing comptime call AND whose index is a comptime int literal — substitutes the i-th call-site arg's lowered value directly, propagating the call arg's concrete type through field access, typed assignments, and further indexing. The `[]Any` slice path stays as the runtime-indexed fallback for `args[i]` where `i` is not a comptime constant. 195/195 example tests + `zig build test` green. |

ffi issue-0045: pack-fn block-body call — lock in LLVM verifier crash
Filed `issues/0045-pack-fn-call-llvm-verifier-failure.md`.
Surfaced by probing step 2 territory of the variadic
heterogeneous type packs feature: any `..$args` fn whose body
is a block containing `return X;` (or any comptime fn with a
non-void return, comptime params, and explicit `return` in a
block body) trips LLVM's "Terminator found in the middle of a
basic block" verifier.
`lowerComptimeCall` inlines the body's statements directly into
the caller's LLVM function. `lowerReturn` then emits a `ret`
into the caller's basic block — but the caller still has
trailing instructions, hence the verifier failure.
`examples/issue-0045.sx` reproduces the crash with the minimum
pack-fn shape (`foo :: (..$args) -> s64 { return 42; }`). Same
shape with a plain comptime param (`($x: s32) -> s64 { return
42; }`) reproduces identically, so the bug is broader than
packs. Arrow-form bodies (`=> 42`) work today because they have
no `return` statement.
Next commit teaches `lowerComptimeCall` to allocate a result
slot when the body contains a `return`, and reroutes
`lowerReturn` to store into that slot + flag the block as
terminated so the inliner picks up the value.

ffi M5.A.next.1d.A: pack impl matching — lock in concrete-only miss
Step 1d lock-in test pinning today's matching behaviour. `registerParamImpl` records every impl in `param_impl_map` keyed by `"Proto\x00<arg_mangled>\x00<src_mangled>"`. For a pack impl `Into(Block) for Closure(..$args) -> $R` the key contains the pack-shaped closure's mangle (interns with `pack_start = Some(0)` after 1c.B). At the `xx cl : *Block` site the lookup mangles the concrete `Closure(s32, bool) -> bool` source and finds nothing — the existing focused diagnostic fires: no `Into(Block) for cl_s32_bool__bool` impl — add a per-signature `__block_invoke_<sig>` trampoline + Into impl alongside the existing ones in modules/std/objc_block.sx, or declare it in your own code The pack impl is reachable in the file but never considered. Next commit (1d.B): - New `param_impl_pack_map` keyed by `"Proto\x00<arg_mangled>"` (no src) — populated by `registerParamImpl` when the source is pack-shaped. - `tryUserConversion` walks the pack map on concrete-key miss. Pack shape matches when the impl's fixed prefix equals the source's matching prefix; the remainder binds to `$args` and the source's return type binds to `$R`. Concrete impls win over pack impls (specificity). - `resolveTypeWithBindings` learns the closure_type_expr path so the impl body's `self: Closure(..$args) -> $R` substitutes to the concrete source closure during monomorphisation. The `Closure(s32, bool) -> bool` shape is not covered by stdlib or 96-block-multi-arg's hand-rolled impls, so the pack impl is the only candidate post-1d.B. 193/193 example tests + `zig build test` green. |

ffi M5.A.next.1c.A: pack type rep — lock in parser rejection
Next slice of the variadic heterogeneous type packs (`..$args`) feature: type-system representation. Per the FFI cadence rule, this commit locks in the parser-rejection behavior so the next commit's type-rep extension surfaces as a behavior shift. examples/154-pack-type-rep.sx uses `..$args` inside a `Closure(...)` type expression — the pack-shape spelling used by impl headers like `impl Into(Block) for Closure(..$args) -> $R`. Today's parser recognizes `..$args` only at the parameter-list site (1b); `parseTypeExpr`'s `Closure(...)` arm calls `parseTypeExpr` per position and hits "expected type name" at the `..` token. Snapshot captures the rejection at line 18, column 26. Next commit (1c.B): - Parser: `parseTypeExpr` Closure arm accepts `..$args` as the trailing pack marker. AST gets a `pack_name: ?[]const u8` (or equivalent) field on `ClosureTypeExpr`. - types.zig: `FunctionInfo` / `ClosureInfo` gain `pack_start: ?u32` so the pack shape is distinct from any concrete arity in the type table. Hash/eql updated. - type_bridge: `resolveClosureType` threads pack_start through. - 154 flips green. 192/192 example tests + `zig build test` green. |

ffi M5.A.next.1b: parser accepts ..$args as a variadic-pack param
Extends parseParams in src/parser.zig:1558 to recognize a leading `..` before the optional `$` sigil and the parameter name. The old `args: ..T` form (variadic marker after the colon) still works — both paths set the same `is_variadic` flag. A pack declaration `..$args` parses as: - `is_variadic = true` (from the leading `..`) - `is_comptime = true` (from the `$` sigil) - `type_expr = inferred_type` (no `:` annotation) The no-colon branch now propagates `is_variadic` and `is_comptime` onto the Param struct so later slices (type rep, impl matching, monomorphisation) can read both flags from the parsed AST without re-deriving from token sequence. `examples/150-pack-parse.sx` flips from rejecting-with-error to positive parse smoke. No semantic effect yet — `foo` is declared but never instantiated. 191/191 example tests + `zig build test` green. |

ffi M5.A.next.1a: variadic heterogeneous type packs — parse lockin
First slice of the `..$args` (variadic heterogeneous type pack)
feature. Locks in the current parser-rejection behavior so the
next commit's parser extension shows up as a behavior shift.
`examples/150-pack-parse.sx` declares `foo :: (..$args) -> s64`.
Today's parser hits `..` where it expects a parameter name
(parseParams in src/parser.zig:1558 only handles `..` inside the
type position after a colon) and emits "expected parameter name".
Expected output captures this rejection.
Per FFI cadence rule, this is the "test fails today, passes after
next commit's parser change" pair.
Pack feature plan saved at
~/.claude/plans/lets-see-options-for-merry-dijkstra.md ("Variadic
heterogeneous type packs" section). Motivates replacing the
hand-rolled per-signature `Into(Block)` impls with one generic
`impl Into(Block) for Closure(..$args) -> $R`; also unlocks
compile-time arity/type errors for `print`/`format`.

ffi M5.A revert: drop compiler synthesis, require explicit Into(Block) impls
Reconsidered the M5.A.2 cleanup. The compiler-synthesised trampoline
path was hidden behaviour — a user reading their code couldn't tell
how `xx my_closure : Block` worked without reading lower.zig. That's
exactly the kind of magic sx's design has been pushing against.
New design (strict mode):
1. Stdlib's modules/std/objc_block.sx hand-rolls
`__block_invoke_void` + `Into(Block) for Closure() -> void` and
the same pair for `Closure(bool) -> void` (restored from M5.A.2).
These are readable reference implementations of the bridge ABI.
2. The compiler intercept fires NO synthesis — instead, when
`tryUserConversion` can't find a reachable `Into(Block)` impl for
the closure's signature, it emits a focused diagnostic:
"no `Into(Block) for <Closure-sig>` impl — add a per-signature
`__block_invoke_<sig>` trampoline + Into impl alongside the
existing ones in modules/std/objc_block.sx, or declare it in
your own code"
3. Per-signature declarations live in stdlib (for common signatures)
or in user code (for app-specific ones). 96-objc-block-multi-arg
now demonstrates the user-side pattern in-file — it declares its
own `__block_invoke_void_s32_p` + `Into(Block) for Closure(s32,
*void) -> void` impl alongside its main().
Net effect:
- Every block bridge is source-visible. No hidden compiler magic.
- Users see exactly how the Apple ABI shape is constructed in sx
source — stdlib serves as the reference implementation.
- Compiler enforces the discipline: missing impl → clear diagnostic
pointing at the template.
- Coverage for arbitrary signatures requires conscious user opt-in,
not silent fallthrough.
Removed from lower.zig: `tryClosureToBlockConversion`,
`emitBlockInvokeTrampoline`, `mangleClosureSigForBlock`,
`mangleTypeForBlock`, and the `block_invoke_trampolines` dedup
state field. Net: the synthesis machinery is gone; only the
detection helper `isClosureToBlockCast` remains, used by the
diagnostic.

ffi M5.A.3: multi-arg block smoke test (s32, *void) -> void
A signature the hand-rolled stdlib never covered: `Closure(s32, *void) -> void`.
Pre-M5.A this code wouldn't compile (no `Into(Block) for Closure(s32, *void) -> void`
declaration); post-M5.A the compiler emits `__block_invoke_v_i_p` on
demand and the call site goes through it.
The test uses two-arg side-effect capture (globals `g_sum`, `g_tag`)
to verify both args reached the closure body. Confirms the
trampoline's calling convention forwards
`(__sx_default_context, sx_env, arg0, arg1)` correctly through to
the closure's underlying fn.
Note: return-value signatures (e.g. `Closure(s32) -> s32`) are
recognised by the trampoline emitter — `cinfo.ret` flows through
to `beginFunction`'s return slot — but exercising them requires
closure-return-type inference that the test runner stumbled on
during authoring (`(n: s32) => { return n+1; }` infers void). The
void-returning shape is the more common Cocoa pattern (animation
bodies, dispatch_async, completion handlers); return-value
signatures land properly once the closure inference catches up
(orthogonal to M5.A).
190/190 example tests pass.

ffi M4.B helpers: objcPropertyKind + ARC runtime decls + xfail tests
Three pieces, no behavior change yet:
1. `ObjcPropertyKind` enum (strong/weak/copy/assign) + `objcPropertyKind`
helper in lower.zig. Reads `field.property_modifiers`, applies the
default rule (`*<ObjC-class>` → strong; primitives → assign), and
emits loud diagnostics for the silent-error budget:
- unknown modifier name (typo) → "expected one of: strong, weak, copy, ..."
- conflicting modifiers (e.g. `strong,weak`) → "mutually exclusive"
- `weak` on non-object slot → "requires a pointer-to-Obj-C-class type"
- `copy` on non-object slot → same
- `strong` (default or explicit) on `*void` → "ambiguous: specify
#property(strong|weak|copy|assign) explicitly"
Called from `emitObjcDefinedClassPropertyImps` for validation; the
returned kind isn't wired into setter/getter/dealloc yet — that's
the next three commits.
2. `ensureArcRuntimeDecls` lazily declares libobjc's ARC helpers:
objc_retain, objc_release, objc_storeWeak, objc_loadWeakRetained,
objc_initWeak, objc_destroyWeak. Uses the existing
`ensureCRuntimeDecl` pattern; idempotent.
3. Fix existing NSObject method names in std/objc.sx — `isEqual_`,
`isKindOfClass_`, `respondsToSelector_` had trailing underscores
that the selector mangling turned into double-colon selectors
(`isEqual::`). Removed the trailing underscore so the selectors
come out as `isEqual:`, `isKindOfClass:`, `respondsToSelector:`
as Apple's runtime expects.
4. Two xfail regression tests:
- ffi-objc-arc-02-strong-property: assigns child to parent's strong
property, releases the original child reference. Midpoint check:
child's dealloc should NOT have fired (strong setter retained).
Pre-M4.B-setter: child dealloc fires immediately → "FAIL: child
dealloc'd at midpoint" snapshot. Exit code 1.
- ffi-objc-arc-03-weak-property: assigns target to holder's weak
property, releases target. Reads holder.target → should be null
(auto-niled). Pre-M4.B-getter/setter: reads stale pointer →
"FAIL: weak property didn't auto-nil" snapshot.
These will turn green as M4.B setter (commit 2), getter (commit 3),
and dealloc-cleanup (commit 4) land. Each subsequent commit updates
the snapshot to reflect the now-passing output.

test: M4.0 allocator-threading regression coverage
Two regression tests pinning down the silent-error surface in M4.0:
ffi-objc-arc-00 — single sx-defined-class instance round-trips
through a TrackingAllocator-wrapped GPA. Captures alloc/dealloc
deltas around the lifecycle, verifies (+1, +1). Pre-M4.0 the +alloc
IMP used libc malloc and -dealloc used libc free; tracker would
have observed (+0, +0) and missed the leak silently.
ffi-objc-arc-00b — three instances alloc'd and released. Catches
bugs where:
- the captured allocator becomes shared (one global slot vs
per-instance);
- alloc captures the wrong allocator on the 2nd+ instance;
- dealloc reads garbage if state[0] is overwritten between
instances.
Both tests are macos-only (libobjc + NSObject must be present at
runtime). Both wrap the lifecycle in `push Context.{ allocator =
xx tracker }` so the threading path is exercised.
Important authoring note: `print` inside the push-block also routes
through tracker (string formatting allocs), polluting the leak
delta. Tests capture before/after counts WITHOUT any prints between
alloc and release, then verify the BALANCE — every alloc paired
with a dealloc — rather than absolute counts. Discovered while
writing 00: an initial naive "leak_count() == 0" assertion failed
not because M4.0 was broken but because print's string allocs
weren't freed at scope exit.
187/187 example tests pass.

ffi M4.A: stdlib NSObject + autoreleasepool helper + extends rooting
Declare `NSObject` in std/objc.sx as `#foreign #objc_class("NSObject")`
with the canonical instance + class-method surface every Obj-C class
inherits: `retain`/`release`/`autorelease`/`new`/`alloc`/`init`/
`description`/`hash`/`isEqual_`/`isKindOfClass_`/`respondsToSelector_`/
`class`. Root the foreign-class hierarchy in uikit.sx at NSObject by
adding `#extends NSObject;` to every previously-unrooted declaration
(NSValue, NSNumber, NSDictionary, NSSet, NSNotification, NSBundle,
NSNotificationCenter, NSRunLoop, CADisplayLink, CALayer, EAGLContext,
UIScreen, UIResponder) plus deeper chain fixes (NSMutableDictionary
extends NSDictionary; UIWindow extends UIView; UIViewController
extends UIResponder). After this, M2.3's extends-chain walk finds
`retain`/`release` on any UIKit-typed value:
view := UIView.alloc().init();
defer view.release(); // canonical sx idiom — no language magic
Plus `autoreleasepool(body: Closure())` stdlib helper that wraps
`body` in `objc_autoreleasePoolPush` / `defer objc_autoreleasePoolPop`.
Required for Foundation factory returns; closure-call frame is real
cost so hot loops should inline the push/defer-pop pattern manually.
Smoke test `ffi-objc-arc-01-autoreleasepool.sx` exercises both
patterns; refresh of two IR snapshots picks up the new stdlib decls
appearing in test outputs that include `modules/std/objc.sx`.

ffi fix: route foreign-class UFCS arg target_types through extends chain
For UFCS dispatch on foreign-class receivers (`#foreign #objc_class` aliases), `resolveCallParamTypes` was returning an empty slice — both `resolveFuncByName(qualified)` and `fn_ast_map.get(qualified)` miss for `#foreign` methods (they live in `foreign_class_map`, not the regular fn maps). With `param_types` empty, the per-arg `target_type` assignment in `lowerCall` was skipped, leaving `self.target_type` as whatever it held on entry — usually the enclosing function's return type. Inside a `-> BOOL` method, `xx ptr` then lowered with target type `i8`: `ptrtoint ptr to i64` → `trunc i64 to i8`, sending the low byte of the pointer through. Symptom: chess on iOS-sim crashed in `-[NSNotificationCenter addObserver:selector:name:object:]` with `observer = 0xC0` (low byte of the SxAppDelegate receiver) when the AppDelegate method's first param was renamed to anything other than `self`. The original session diagnosed it as a `self`-vs-`this` hardcoding in `lower.zig`, but those hardcoded `"self"` strings are all on compiler-synthesized parameters (init scopes, JNI stubs, property IMPs, dealloc IMPs) — not the user-facing #objc_class body params. The bug was in arg-type resolution. Fix walks `foreign_class_map` + `findForeignMethodInChain` to recover the declared param types (skipping the implicit `*Self` for instance methods). Regression test `examples/issue-0044.sx` exercises the BOOL-return + foreign-class arg shape; pre-fix the receiver round-trip prints WRONG, post-fix it prints ok. |

ffi M2.3: #extends method-resolution chaining + Obj-C parent resolution
When 'obj.method()' is called on a foreign-class pointer and the
method isn't declared on the receiver's class, the compiler walks
the '#extends' chain to find an ancestor that declared it.
Property lookup (M2.2) flows through the same chain walker.
ParentX :: #foreign #objc_class("...") { foo :: ... }
ChildX :: #foreign #objc_class("...") { #extends ParentX; }
child.foo() // now resolves — was 'no method foo on ChildX'
Two new helpers in lower.zig:
- findForeignMethodInChain(fcd, name) walks the cache via
fcd.members[i].extends → foreign_class_map[parent] → ...
Depth-capped at 16 to break accidental cycles.
- findForeignPropertyInChain(fcd, name) — same shape for fields.
ALSO fixes a latent class-hierarchy bug uncovered while testing
M2.3: emit_llvm was passing the sx alias name to
objc_allocateClassPair(super, ...) rather than the actual Obj-C
runtime class name. For 'SxThing :: #objc_class(...) { #extends
NSObjectBase; }' where 'NSObjectBase' is aliased to "NSObject",
emit_llvm produced 'objc_getClass("NSObjectBase")' → NULL →
'objc_allocateClassPair(NULL, ...)' → SxThing's super-class link
was broken → '[sx_thing hash]' bypassed NSObject and crashed in
the forwarding machinery.
Fix: ObjcDefinedClassEntry gains a 'parent_objc_name' field
pre-resolved by lower.zig's 'resolveObjcParentName' through
foreign_class_map (which has the alias → foreign_path mapping).
emit_llvm just reads the resolved name from the entry.
153-objc-extends-chain.sx exercises both fixes:
1-level: SxThing → NSObject — t.hash() walks one #extends.
2-level: SxLeaf → SxMiddle → NSObject — chained #extends.
Both return real NSObject.hash values from libobjc.

ffi M2.2 (sx-defined): property getter/setter IMPs
Properties on sx-defined #objc_class declarations now synthesize
getter (always) and setter (unless 'readonly') IMPs that GEP into
the hidden state struct and load / store the corresponding field.
The state struct already holds every user-declared field
(objcDefinedStateStructType), so no new layout work — the IMPs
just dispatch a struct_gep + load/store through the __sx_state
ivar.
For each '#property' field on a sx-defined class:
Getter '__<Cls>_<field>_imp(self, _cmd) -> T':
state = object_getIvar(self, load(__<Cls>_state_ivar))
return state.<field>
Setter '__<Cls>_set<Field>_imp(self, _cmd, val) -> void':
state = object_getIvar(self, load(__<Cls>_state_ivar))
state.<field> = val
Both IMPs land in the cache's methods slice (mirroring the
method-IMP wiring from M1.2 A.4b.iii) so emit_llvm's
class_addMethod loop registers them on the class without
special-casing. Selector mangling:
getter: <field> (e.g. 'width')
setter: set<Field>: (e.g. 'setWidth:')
Type encoding derived from the field's resolved IR TypeId.
'readonly' (the only modifier honored in this slice) skips the
setter emission AND the corresponding method entry — so the
runtime reports the selector as absent. Other modifiers
(strong, weak, copy, assign) parse fine but stay no-ops until
M4.2 wires up ARC ops in the setter body.
152-objc-property-sx-defined.sx round-trips on macOS:
b.width = 10; b.height = 7;
read back through getter IMPs.
area is readonly — class_getInstanceMethod(SxBox, sel(setArea:))

ffi M2.2 (first pass): #property directive on foreign-class fields
Adds:
field: T #property[(modifier, modifier, ...)];
inside #objc_class declarations. For FOREIGN classes (this slice),
'obj.field' and 'obj.field = x' lower as objc_msgSend dispatches —
no struct GEP, no per-field storage on the sx side. The receiver
is opaque and the Obj-C runtime owns the data.
Selector mangling (Apple convention):
getter: <fieldName> (e.g. 'count')
setter: set<FieldName>: (e.g. 'setBackgroundColor:')
So:
view.backgroundColor → [view backgroundColor]
view.backgroundColor = red → [view setBackgroundColor:red]
Plumbing:
- New token hash_property + lexer entry + LSP keyword classification.
- ForeignFieldDecl gains 'is_property' + 'property_modifiers' slice;
the parser captures both. Modifiers are recorded verbatim (strong,
weak, copy, readonly, getter("name"), ...) — semantic interpretation
lands with M4.2 ARC wiring.
- lowerFieldAccess: lookupObjcPropertyOnPointer() detects the case
before the auto-deref / struct-GEP path and dispatches via
lowerObjcPropertyGetter (objc_msg_send).
- lowerAssignment: same check on the field_access LHS routes to
lowerObjcPropertySetter (objc_msg_send with set<Field>:).
- inferExprType: 'obj.field' returns the property's declared type
so chained access / coerced assignment work.
151-objc-property-foreign.sx round-trips:
inst.tag → [inst tag] → reads g_probe_tag → 0
inst.tag = 42 → [inst setTag:42] → writes g_probe_tag
inst.tag = -7 → ditto
Final: 0 -> 42 -> -7 (real Obj-C runtime dispatch).
DEFERRED for M2.2 (later passes):
- Sx-defined property IMPs (synthesized getter/setter trampolines
reading/writing the state struct).
- Modifier-driven setter behavior: readonly (compile error on
write), copy (deep-copy), weak (objc_storeWeak), strong/assign
(Month 4.2 ARC ops).
- getter("name") / setter("name:") selector overrides.

ffi M2.1(a): class-level constants 'name :: Type = expr;'
Inside a '#objc_class { ... }' block, 'name :: Type = expr;' is
accepted alongside the existing method form. Parsed as sugar for
'name :: () -> Type => expr;' — a niladic class method with an
expression body. The synthesized class method flows through the
M2.1(b) class-method pipeline: a C-ABI IMP is emitted and
registered on the metaclass.
Apple's runtime sees zero distinction — '[Cls foo]' dispatches to
our IMP regardless of source spelling. The constant form is
purely syntactic sugar; it reads better for static metadata
returns:
SxGLView :: #objc_class("SxGLView") {
layerClass :: Class = CAEAGLLayer.class();
}
vs. the equivalent method form:
layerClass :: () -> Class => CAEAGLLayer.class();
Parser change: after 'name ::' if the next token isn't '(' we
take the constant branch — parse a type expr, expect '=', parse
the value expr, expect ';'. The result is a ForeignMethodDecl
with is_static=true, empty params, return_type=Type, body=block
wrapping the expr. Pure parser-level transformation; no new AST
nodes, no new lowering passes.
150-objc-class-level-constant.sx exercises both shapes on macOS:
a primitive (s32 answer) and a pointer ('*NSObject seedClass'
— the canonical '+layerClass'-style factory return).
180 example tests pass (+1). zig build test green.
M2.1 complete: both (a) the constant form and (b) the
expression-bodied class method shape land.
Next: M2.2 — 'field: T #property(modifiers...)' synthesizes
getter/setter pairs.

ffi M2.1(b): class methods on sx-defined #objc_class
Bodied methods without a '*Self' first param (parser marks
is_static=true) are now registered as Obj-C CLASS methods on
the metaclass.
Each such method gets:
- A synthesized FnDecl + body lowering through the existing
M1.2 A.2 path.
- A C-ABI trampoline 'emitObjcDefinedClassStaticImp' — same
shape as the instance trampoline but skips the __sx_state
ivar read (no instance state) and passes only
'__sx_default_context' (plus user args) to the sx body.
- An entry in ObjcDefinedMethodEntry with 'is_class=true'.
emit_llvm's class-pair init constructor now computes the
metaclass once up-front (via object_getClass(cls)) and shares
it between the +alloc IMP registration (M1.2 A.5) and the
M2.1(b) class-method registrations. The per-method registration
loop picks the target via 'method.is_class ? metaclass : cls'.
149-objc-class-method-static-imp.sx end-to-end on macOS:
SxFoo :: #objc_class("SxFoo") {
answer :: () -> s32 { return 42; }
}
// [SxFoo answer] via objc_msgSend → 42
// class_getClassMethod(SxFoo, sel_answer) → non-null
Still TODO for M2.1: the (a) class-LEVEL constant form
'layerClass :: Class = CAEAGLLayer.class();' — needs parser
extension to recognize 'name :: Type = expr;' inside #objc_class
blocks, plus lazy-init-slot synthesis.

Returns 'Class' (the M1.1 first-pass alias for *void;
parameterized Class(T) covariance is deferred to M1.1.b).
f := SxFoo.alloc();
cls := f.class; // → object_getClass(f)
cls == objc_getClass("SxFoo".ptr); // ok
New helper isObjcClassPointer(ty) detects 'ptr -> struct in
foreign_class_map under .objc_class / .objc_protocol'. The
check fires BEFORE the auto-deref so the runtime call sees the
opaque Obj-C pointer rather than the load'd struct stub.
148-objc-self-class-accessor.sx exercises both shapes end-to-end
against the macOS runtime: sx-defined class (SxFoo) and foreign
class (NSObject). Round-trips against objc_getClass(name).
178 example tests pass. zig build test green.
This effectively closes Month 1 — M1.0, M1.1 (first pass), M1.2,
M1.3 all done. Remaining: M1.1.b (Class(T) covariance +
instancetype), then Month 2 (declarative sugar).

ffi M1.2 A.7: open the dispatch gate — sx-defined class methods callable
Delete the bail at lower.zig:4407 that diagnosed sx-defined Obj-C
class dispatch as 'not yet supported'. Both foreign and
sx-defined '#objc_class' decls now flow through the same
'lowerObjcMethodCall' path — instance methods on sx-defined
classes dispatch via objc_msgSend, and the registered IMP
trampolines (M1.2 A.4b.iii) route to the sx bodies.
The runtime non-Obj-C branch (.swift_class / .swift_struct /
.swift_protocol) keeps its 'not yet supported' diagnostic;
M1.2 only addresses the Obj-C runtimes.
Constructor reorder in emit_llvm: emitObjcDefinedClassInit
runs BEFORE emitObjcClassInit. Otherwise the Phase 3.1
class-cache populator calls objc_getClass("SxFoo") before our
constructor registers the class — cache slot stored null and
'SxFoo.method()' dispatched against a null class pointer.
ffi-objc-defined-class-01-instance.sx (the integration test
from the plan) now runs the full lifecycle on macOS:
f := SxFoo.alloc() // synthesized +alloc IMP fires
f.bump() // dispatch → IMP trampoline → sx body
f.bump() // state persists across calls
f.bump()
f.get() // → 3
release_fn(f, sel_release) // synthesized -dealloc fires
The user declares 'alloc :: () -> *SxFoo;' bodyless to give the
synthesized +alloc IMP a typed contract at sx call sites —
same convention as foreign classes today.
M1.2 complete: A.0 A.1 A.2 A.3 A.4 A.4b.i A.4b.ii A.4b.iii
A.5 A.6 A.7. End-to-end class-synthesis foundation works.

ffi M1.2 A.6: synthesized -dealloc IMP + [super dealloc] chain
For every sx-defined #objc_class, emit a C-callconv -dealloc IMP
that runs at refcount-zero. Frees the sx state struct, nils the
ivar, then chains to [super dealloc] so NSObject's runtime
cleanup (object_dispose, associated-object teardown, KVO, etc.)
runs as usual.
-dealloc IMP (self: id, _cmd: SEL) -> void
state = object_getIvar(self, load @__<Cls>_state_ivar)
free(state) // free(NULL) is safe
object_setIvar(self, ivar, NULL)
sup = alloca { receiver: *void, super_class: *void }
sup.receiver = self
sup.super_class = load @__<Cls>_class
sel_dealloc = sel_registerName("dealloc")
objc_msgSendSuper2(&sup, sel_dealloc)
return
Two new per-class globals:
- '__<Cls>_class' : *void — populated by emit_llvm's
class-pair init constructor with the freshly-allocated Class
pointer (after objc_registerClassPair).
- The existing '__<Cls>_state_ivar' is also consulted to find
the state struct.
The -dealloc IMP is registered on the class itself (instance
method) via class_addMethod with encoding 'v@:'. emit_llvm
ALSO stores cls_val into '__<Cls>_class' so the trampoline
can build the objc_super struct.
internStringConstantGlobal helper added to lower.zig — interns
C strings as [N:0]u8 globals with byte-level aggregate inits.
Used here for the 'dealloc' selector string.
147-objc-class-dealloc-roundtrip.sx verifies end-to-end on
macOS: alloc + release fires the IMP, and a second alloc/release
cycle proves runtime state isn't corrupted. class_getMethod-
Implementation confirms the IMP is registered.
176 example tests pass (+1). zig build test green.
Still gated: sx-side 'obj.method()' calls bail at lower.zig:4407
with the existing diagnostic. A.7 opens the gate — last sub-step

ffi M1.2 A.5: synthesized +alloc IMP + ensureCRuntimeDecl helper
For every sx-defined #objc_class, emit a C-callconv +alloc IMP
that the Obj-C runtime calls when '[Cls alloc]' fires (from sx
code, UIKit instantiation, Info.plist principal class, etc.):
+alloc IMP (cls: Class, _cmd: SEL) -> id
instance = class_createInstance(cls, 0)
state = malloc(STATE_SIZE)
memset(state, 0, STATE_SIZE)
object_setIvar(instance, load(@__<Cls>_state_ivar), state)
return instance
STATE_SIZE = max(typeSizeBytes(state struct), 1) — always at
least one byte so the ivar is never null after +alloc returns.
The IMP is registered on the METACLASS (class methods live there
— every Class object's isa points to the metaclass) in emit_llvm's
class-pair init constructor:
metaclass = object_getClass(cls)
sel_alloc = sel_registerName("alloc")
class_addMethod(metaclass, sel_alloc, alloc_imp, "@@:")
That override wins over NSObject's default +alloc; runtime
instantiations get the __sx_state ivar bound automatically.
Per-instance allocator binding (the plan's full design — store
the Allocator value in the state struct so -dealloc frees through
the same one) is deferred. libc malloc/free is fine for v1; we'll
upgrade once Month 4's autoreleasepool + ARC ops shake out.
REFACTOR: collapsed five duplicate 'get<Name>Fid' helpers and
their cache fields (object_getIvar, object_setIvar,
class_createInstance, malloc, memset) into a single
'ensureCRuntimeDecl(name, params, ret) -> FuncId'. The helper
checks for an existing decl by name first (avoids the
'class_createInstance.1' duplicate-symbol crash when stdlib's
'#foreign' decl is already in the module). One helper instead
of one-per-function = ~150 lines deleted.
object_getIvar / object_setIvar added to stdlib std/objc.sx
so user code can use them too (146 exercises object_getIvar
to verify __sx_state was bound to a non-null state pointer
after +alloc).
146-objc-class-alloc-roundtrip.sx end-to-end against macOS:
'[SxFoo alloc]' returns non-null AND object_getIvar(instance,
__sx_state) returns the state ptr. Real Obj-C runtime, no
mocks.

ffi M1.2 A.4b.iii: class_addMethod wires IMPs to the Obj-C runtime
For each instance method on a sx-defined '#objc_class', the
class-pair init constructor now:
sel = sel_registerName("selector_string")
imp = @__<Cls>_<method>_imp (M1.2 A.4b.ii)
class_addMethod(cls, sel, imp, "<encoding>")
before objc_registerClassPair. The IMP trampoline (A.4b.ii)
already bridges C-ABI -> sx body. With registration in place,
'objc_msgSend(obj, sel_bump)' now routes to the trampoline,
which reads __sx_state ivar and forwards to '@<Cls>.<method>'.
To get selector + type-encoding strings out of lower.zig and
into emit_llvm, ObjcDefinedClassEntry gains a 'methods' slice:
pub const ObjcDefinedMethodEntry = struct {
sel: []const u8, // mangled selector (M1.2 A.1's deriveObjcSelector)
encoding: []const u8, // type encoding (M1.2 A.1's objcTypeEncodingFromSignature)
imp_name: []const u8, // C-callconv trampoline symbol
};
registerObjcDefinedClassMethods populates this when it declares
each method's body function; Module.setObjcDefinedClassMethods
attaches the slice to the cache entry by name. Static (class-
side) methods are skipped — A.4b only covers instance methods;
class-method hooks like '+layerClass' land in M2.1.
emit_llvm reads entry.methods and emits class_addMethod inside
the per-class init block, before objc_registerClassPair (the
runtime locks the method list at register time on some SDK
versions).
145-objc-class-method-dispatch.sx verifies end-to-end:
class_getMethodImplementation(SxFoo, sel_registerName("bump"))
returns non-null after main starts. Both niladic ('bump') and
single-arg ('add:') selectors checked.
Still gated (A.7): sx-side 'obj.bump()' calls. The dispatch
gate at lower.zig:4407 hasn't opened — A.5 (+alloc) and A.6
(-dealloc) need to land first so the integration test
ffi-objc-defined-class-01-instance.sx (full state round-trip)
can exercise the full lifecycle.

ffi M1.2 A.4b.i: __sx_state ivar registration
Class-pair init constructor now registers a single hidden ivar on each sx-defined class: class_addIvar(cls, "__sx_state", 8, 3, "^v") before objc_registerClassPair. After the class is registered, the constructor calls class_getInstanceVariable to fetch the runtime Ivar handle and stores it in a per-class global '__<ClassName>_state_ivar : *void'. Trampolines (A.4b.ii) will read this global to 'object_getIvar' the state struct pointer. lower.zig declares the per-class global at scan time (declareObjcDefinedStateIvarGlobal) so emit_llvm finds it by name when populating. Encoding '^v' = void* (a generic pointer — the runtime treats it as opaque storage). log2 alignment = 3 for 8-byte pointer alignment on 64-bit. 144-objc-class-ivar-registration.sx exercises the round-trip: after main starts, class_getInstanceVariable(SxFoo, "__sx_state") returns non-null. Runs against the real Obj-C runtime on macOS. 142's IR snapshot refreshed to include the new constructor body (class_addIvar + class_getInstanceVariable + ivar-global store). 173 example tests pass (+1 from 144). zig build test green. |

ffi M1.2 A.4: emitObjcDefinedClassInit class-pair registration
For every sx-defined '#objc_class', emit a module-init constructor
that registers the class with the Obj-C runtime at module load.
Pattern mirrors the Phase 3.1 emitObjcClassInit companion:
'@llvm.global_ctors' + ORC-JIT main injection.
Constructor body, per cache entry:
super = objc_getClass("<ParentName>") // default NSObject
cls = objc_allocateClassPair(super, "<ClassName>", 0)
objc_registerClassPair(cls)
Parent is read from the foreign_class_decl's '.extends' member;
absent ⇒ NSObject (matches M1.2 A.0 spec). Class-name strings
go through new emitPrivateCString helper that mirrors the
selector-init / class-init shape.
Two new small helpers extracted while we were here:
- lazyDeclareCRuntime — declare-once extern wrapper for Obj-C
runtime APIs.
- appendModuleCtor — append-or-create global_ctors + ORC-JIT
injection, factored out of emitObjcClassInit.
143-objc-class-registration.sx exercises the round-trip on
macOS: after main starts, objc_getClass("SxFoo".ptr) returns
non-null. Runs against the real Obj-C runtime.
142's IR snapshot updated — the constructor + ctors metadata
are now part of the expected shape.
DEFERRED (A.4b): method-IMP registration (class_addMethod with
a C-ABI trampoline that reads __sx_state ivar and calls the sx
body). DEFERRED (A.5+): synthesized +alloc / -dealloc IMPs and

ffi M1.2 A.2c + A.3: eager body lowering + self.field via state struct
Adds Pass 4b 'lowerObjcDefinedClassMethods' to lowerRoot: after
scan, walk objc_defined_class_cache and force-lower each bodied
instance method. The Obj-C runtime invokes these via the IMP
pointers wired up in A.4 — no sx-side call path drives lazy
lowering, so we trigger it here. Mirrors the JNI eager-lower
pattern in Pass 5.
Bug fix: lazyLowerFunction has its OWN inline body-lowering
path (separate from lowerFunction) that re-resolves param types
at line 1025. It was running without current_foreign_class set,
so '*Self' fell through to the type_bridge fallback and got
interned as a 0-field struct named 'Self' — body's
'self.counter' GEP'd into '{}' and LLVM verification rejected.
Fix: set current_foreign_class at the top of lazyLowerFunction
via the same lookupObjcDefinedClassForMethod path lowerFunction
uses. Save+restore via defer.
A.3 ('self.field access via the ivar') falls out for free —
'*Self' resolves to '*__SxFooState' so 'self.counter' is a
plain struct field access. IR snapshot in
142-objc-class-method-lowering.ir shows the round-trip:
define internal void @SxFoo.bump(ptr, ptr self) {
%gep = getelementptr inbounds { i32 }, ptr %self, 0, 0
%v = load i32, ptr %gep
store i32 (%v + 1), ptr %gep
ret void
}
171 examples pass (+1 from 142); zig build test green.
Still gated: Obj-C runtime dispatch (A.7) — sx-side
'f.bump()' calls bail at lower.zig:4407 with the existing
diagnostic. IMP-trampoline emission (the C-ABI shim that bridges
'objc_msgSend' → this body) lands in A.4 alongside class-pair
init.

The header's old caveat about lacking type aliases is gone. 141-objc-type-aliases.sx exercises the aliases against the real macOS Obj-C runtime: alloc/init an NSObject, fetch its class via objc_getClass, sel_registerName a SEL, then call 'isKindOfClass:' returning BOOL=1. Non-macOS paths print the same line to keep the snapshot stable. DEFERRED (M1.1.b, follow-up): 'Class(T)' parameterization with #extends-aware covariance, and 'instancetype' per-decl substitution.

ffi: resolve foreign-class member types through Self substitution (issue-0043)
`inferExprType` for a chained call `Cls.static().instance(...)` never
looked the inner call's foreign-class declaration up, so the outer
dispatch saw a `.s64` receiver, the `foreign_class_map.get(...)` lookup
missed, and lowering emitted `error: unresolved 'method'`. The macOS
target appeared to work because `inline if OS == .ios { ... }` strips
the gated body before lowering — eliding every call that would have
exercised the broken path.
The "lazy-lower" framing in the original issue file was a red herring.
Fix in `src/ir/lower.zig`:
1. `inferExprType` for `.call` with `.field_access` callee now checks
`foreign_class_map` for both shapes — `Cls.static_method(args)` (object
identifier matches a foreign-class alias, look up static members) and
`inst.instance_method(args)` (receiver is a pointer to a foreign-class
struct, look up non-static members).
2. New helpers `resolveForeignMethodReturnType` and
`resolveForeignClassMemberType` substitute `*Self` / `Self` to the
foreign-class struct so a `*Self` return doesn't synthesize a phantom
`Self`-named struct that future dispatches can't resolve.
3. The Obj-C lowering paths (`lowerObjcMethodCall`, `lowerObjcStaticCall`)
route through the same helper for `ret_ty` so the IR Ref's type matches
what `inferExprType` reports.
Regression test at `examples/138-foreign-class-chained-dispatch.sx`
exercises NSObject's `+alloc` / `-init` chain in both shapes —
`*NSObject` return then `*Self` return, and `*Self` then `*Self`. Runs
on the host (macOS) for live exercise; non-macOS hosts fall through to
a stub matching the expected output.
This unblocks Phase 3.2 C4/C5 — the `UIWindow.alloc().initWithWindowScene(scene)`
pattern that surfaced the bug is the cluster's bread-and-butter shape.

ffi 3.2 B: locked-in golden test for the Obj-C selector mangling table
`examples/ffi-objc-dsl-07-mangling-table.sx` exercises every common
mangling shape in one fixture and pins the resolved selectors via
both `.txt` and `.ir` snapshots:
| sx method | derived selector |
|-----------------------------------|----------------------------|
| `length` | `length` |
| `addObject(o)` | `addObject:` |
| `combine_and(a, b)` | `combine:and:` |
| `insert_after_index(a, b, c)` | `insert:after:index:` |
| `add_observer_for_event(a, b, c, d)` | `add:observer:for:event:` |
| `initWithFrame_options(f, o)` | `initWithFrame:options:` |
| `custom_name #selector("actualSelectorName")` | `actualSelectorName` |
The class is synthesized at runtime via `objc_allocateClassPair` +
`class_addMethod` per selector (mirrors the pattern in
`ffi-objc-dsl-{01..05}.sx`), so the test actually dispatches through
the real Obj-C runtime on macOS.
Single commit because the implementation already shipped in 3.0/3.2;
this is a new regression that locks in current behavior, not a
test-then-make-green pair.
The `.ir` snapshot opts in via the existing run_examples.sh mechanism
(presence of a `.ir` file for the same name triggers capture). The
captured `OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_*` constants surface every selector
string change at a glance.

ffi 3.2 A1 (xfail): add #selector("...") override regression test
Phase 3.2 xfail half. `#selector("explicit:string")` is the escape
hatch for cases where the sx-side method name doesn't conveniently
produce the target selector under the default mangling rule
(Phase 3.0 — split on `_`, each piece becomes a keyword with a
trailing `:`).
Surface form mirrors `#jni_method_descriptor("(Sig)Ret")` — sits
after the optional `-> ReturnType` and before the method body /
terminator.
Test fixture covers both lowering paths:
- Static method override: `NSObject.gimme()` with override
"description" — exercises lowerObjcStaticCall (Phase 3.1).
- Instance method override: `NSDictionary.lookup(self, key)` with
override "objectForKey:" — declared (parse + AST + lowering
wiring) but not invoked at runtime (no real NSDictionary in
scope). The declaration alone locks in the multi-arg-override path.
Pre-3.2: parser doesn't know `#selector`; snapshot captures
"expected ';'" at the override site, exit=1. Next commit (A2) wires
the lexer token, AST field, parser block, and lowering integration;
snapshot flips to working output.

ffi: drop static keyword on foreign-class methods; param type discriminates
`static name :: ...` was redundant — instance methods always declare `self: *Self` as their first param by convention. The parser now derives `is_static` from the first param's TYPE: if it's `*Self` the method is an instance method; anything else (including no params at all) is a class method. Removes a token from the surface, keeps the dispatch behavior identical. The receiver param's NAME doesn't matter — only its type. Calling the first param `this`, `me`, `receiver`, etc. is fine as long as the type is `*Self`. This mirrors how the rest of sx handles receiver dispatch. Migration of every site that used the keyword: - `library/modules/platform/android.sx` — `SurfaceView.new(ctx)`. - `examples/ffi-jni-class-03-static.sx` — `Math.abs(n)`. - `examples/ffi-jni-main-03-ctor.sx` — `SurfaceView.new(ctx)` in the `#jni_main` body. - `examples/ffi-objc-dsl-05-static.sx` — NSObject's `.class()` / `.description()`. 164/164 example tests; chess clean on macOS / iOS sim / Android via `tools/verify-step.sh`. |

ffi 3.1: Cls.static_method(args) lowers to objc_msg_send on the class object
Implementation half of the Phase 3.1 cadence step. `lowerForeignStaticCall` for `#objc_class` / `#objc_protocol` runtimes no longer bails; it routes through a new `lowerObjcStaticCall` helper that loads the class object from a module-scoped cached slot (populated once per module via `objc_getClass`) and dispatches `objc_msg_send` with the same selector-mangling as Phase 3.0's instance dispatch. Three pieces: 1. `Module.objc_class_cache` — parallel to `objc_selector_cache`, insertion-ordered list of (class_name, slot_GlobalId) so the constructor that calls `objc_getClass` per slot at module load is deterministic. `lookupObjcClass` / `appendObjcClass` accessors. 2. `internObjcClassObject` in lower.zig — get-or-create a `OBJC_CLASSLIST_REFERENCES_<Cls>` global pointer; matches clang's naming convention. `lowerObjcStaticCall` reuses `deriveObjcSelector` from 3.0 for the selector, loads the class slot, and emits `objc_msg_send(class_obj, sel, args)`. 3. `emitObjcClassInit` in emit_llvm.zig — companion to `emitObjcSelectorInit`. Walks `objc_class_cache`, synthesizes a constructor `__sx_objc_class_init` that calls `objc_getClass(name)` per slot, registers in `@llvm.global_ctors` for AOT (extending the existing array if the selector init already created it), and injects a direct call into main's prelude after any prior init calls so the ORC JIT path runs it too. Surface form is `.` (`NSObject.class()`) matching JNI's `Alias.new(...)` convention rather than the plan's notional `::` — avoids extending the parser for a new postfix operator with no other use case. Test `examples/ffi-objc-dsl-05-static.sx` exercises NSObject's `+class` and `+description` class methods via the new syntax, asserts both return non-null. NSObject is always available at module-load, unlike runtime-created test classes that wouldn't exist yet when the class-init constructor runs. 164/164 tests; chess builds + runs clean on all three platforms. |

ffi 3.1 (xfail): add Cls.static_method(args) regression test
xfail half of Phase 3.1: static calls on `#objc_class` aliases lower to `objc_msg_send` against the class object (loaded once per module via `objc_getClass`). Test mirrors the Phase 3.0 pattern (`ffi-objc-dsl-01..04`): synthesize a class at runtime via `objc_allocateClassPair`, add class methods on the metaclass via `object_getClass(cls) + class_addMethod`, declare the sx-side `#objc_class` with `static answer :: ...` / `static add :: ...`, then invoke `SxProbeStatic.answer()` / `.add(7, 35)`. Skips on non-macOS. Surface choice: the call site is `.` (`Cls.method(args)`), matching JNI's existing static dispatch convention (`SurfaceView.new(ctx)`) rather than the plan's notional `::` form. The lowering disambiguates static vs instance by inspecting `method.is_static` on the foreign- class member, same as JNI. Picking `.` avoids extending the parser for a new postfix operator with no other use case. Pre-3.1 snapshot pins the current bail diagnostic at `lowerForeignStaticCall` (lower.zig:4475) — "static calls on 'objc_class' runtime not yet supported (Phase 3/4)" — fires twice because both the niladic and the keyword-arg static call hit it. exit=1. 164/164 tests; next commit implements the dispatch and flips the snapshot to working output. |

ffi 3.0 (xfail): add inst.method(args) DSL regression tests + correct checkpoint
The previous FFI checkpoint claimed Phase 3 step 3.0 ("`inst.method(args)`
on #objc_class receivers") had landed. It hadn't — `lowerForeignMethodCall`
in lower.zig:4353 still bails for any non-JNI runtime with the generic
"method calls on '{runtime}' runtime not yet supported (Phase 3/4)"
diagnostic, no commit introduced an Obj-C DSL dispatch path, and the
planned regression files weren't on disk.
This commit is the xfail half of the proper cadence (test-add then
make-green in separate commits):
- examples/ffi-objc-dsl-01-niladic.sx — `length()` → selector "length".
- examples/ffi-objc-dsl-02-one-arg.sx — `addObject(o)` → "addObject:".
- examples/ffi-objc-dsl-03-multi-keyword.sx — `combine_and(a, b)` →
"combine:and:" (sx name split on `_`, each piece becomes a keyword
with a trailing `:`).
- examples/ffi-objc-dsl-04-mismatch.sx — `something_extra(x)` —
keyword count (2) ≠ arity (1); must diagnose at the call site.
Each test follows the same pattern as `ffi-objc-call-08-multi-keyword.sx`:
synthesize a class at runtime via `objc_allocateClassPair` /
`class_addMethod`, declare the sx-side `#objc_class` against the same
name, then invoke the DSL form. Skips with a "(not macos)" line on
non-macOS hosts. Snapshots currently lock in the bail diagnostic with
exit=1; the next commit implements the dispatch and the snapshots
flip to the working output (and exit=0).
Checkpoint corrected to flag the prior false claim and reposition 3.0
back at the top of the open list.

mem: remove resolveType(null) → .s64 silent fallback
CLAUDE.md REJECTED PATTERNS forbids silent default returns where the
"reasonable-looking" value happens to match one common case (s64 = 8
bytes = pointer-sized on the host) and is silently wrong everywhere
else. `resolveType(null) → .s64` was exactly this shape: a top-level
`g_pi := 3.14;` was silently typed as `s64`, producing a wrong-typed
slot and the wrong runtime value.
`resolveType` now takes a non-optional `*const Node`. Twelve callers
were classified:
- Six were already guarded by `if (x.type_annotation != null)` blocks
— the null branch was unreachable. Cleaned up to optional-payload
syntax (`if (cd.type_annotation) |ta|`) so the always-non-null path
is obvious from the type.
- Two (`#objc_call` / `#jni_call` return types) pass `FfiIntrinsicCall.
return_type`, which is `*Node` (not optional) in the AST — the
silent fallback couldn't be reached there either.
- One (top-level `var_decl` at lower.zig:630) DID legitimately receive
null when the user omitted both annotation and initializer typing.
Now mirrors `lowerVarDecl`'s local-scope behavior: explicit
annotation → resolveType; no annotation → `inferExprType` from the
initializer; neither → diagnose with a real error message.
- One (`lowerComptimeGlobal`, fixed in commit

mem: Phase 1.4a — fat-pointer aggregates from #run serialize via host memory
The Phase 1.4 serializer left a silent malformed-const case: when the
interp evaluated a `#run` returning a string (or anything with a fat
pointer inside), the data field came in as a `.int` holding a libc
host address. `LLVMConstInt(ptr_type, addr, 1)` happily emitted `i0 0`
in the static const, and the runtime segfaulted on the first read.
Phase 1.4a closes this for string and slice destinations. The signature
of `valueToLLVMConst` now takes the IR `TypeId` (instead of just the
LLVM type) and a borrowed `*Interpreter`. A new helper
`serializeAggregateValue` splits on the IR type:
- `string` / `slice` (fat pointer `{data, len}`): extract `len`, read
that many bytes from the data field's address (via `interp.heapSlice`
for `heap_ptr`, via a new `readHostBytes` for `byte_ptr` / `.int`,
via slice indexing for string literals). Emit the bytes as a private
global byte array using the existing `emitConstStringGlobal`. The
fat-pointer aggregate's data ptr resolves to the byte array's address.
- `struct`: walk the IR field types in lockstep with the value's
fields; recurse with each declared field TypeId. This replaces the
old LLVM-type-walk via `LLVMStructGetTypeAtIndex` which couldn't tell
string-typed fields from generic ptr fields.
- `array`: walk with the element TypeId.
The remaining `.int → ptr` trap (a host address landing in a bare ptr
field outside a fat pointer) now bails loudly with a named diagnostic
identifying it as Phase 1.4a heap-walk follow-up territory. No
practical trigger in-tree, so deferred.
`Interpreter.heapSlice` promoted from package-private to `pub` so
the serializer can read interp-managed heap data.
Regression: `examples/136-comptime-string-global.sx` —
`GREETING :: #run build_greeting();` where `build_greeting` returns
`concat("hello", " world")`. Runtime prints `greeting = 'hello world'`
and `greeting.len = 11`. Pre-1.4a this segfaulted on the first read.
158/158 example tests; chess clean on macOS / iOS sim / Android via
`tools/verify-step.sh`.

mem: allocator init returns state by value (drops state-struct heap alloc)
Building on the Option 3 lvalue-borrow rule, the long-lived allocators
in `library/modules/allocators.sx` (GPA, Arena, TrackingAllocator) now
return their state by value instead of via a heap-allocated `*T`. The
caller binds the result to a local; the local IS the allocator state.
`xx local` borrows that storage under Option 3, so the `Allocator`
protocol value's `ctx` points at the local — no heap allocation for
the state struct, no `free` of the state needed.
```sx
gpa := GPA.init(); // GPA (value)
arena := Arena.init(xx gpa, 4096); // Arena (value)
tracker := TrackingAllocator.init(xx gpa); // TrackingAllocator (value)
push Context.{ allocator = xx tracker, data = null } { ... }
```
Why by-value:
- One fewer `libc_malloc` per allocator instance.
- No state-struct leak. The local is reclaimed at scope exit; `deinit`
only handles downstream resources (chunks, etc.) — not its own struct.
- Owning structs can embed allocators as value fields directly.
Callsite changes:
- `library/modules/ui/pipeline.sx`: `arena_a: Arena;` / `arena_b:
Arena;` (was `*Arena;`). The `build_arena: *Arena` local takes
`@self.arena_a` / `@self.arena_b`.
- `examples/126-xx-recover-then-dispatch.sx`: `recovered == @gpa`
instead of `recovered == gpa` (gpa is a value now).
- `examples/135-xx-lvalue-borrows.sx`: drop the `tracker_ptr.*`
deref — `init` already returns the value.
- `examples/50-smoke.sx`: Arena alloc counts dropped by 1 (no
state-struct allocation). Comments + snapshot updated.
`Arena.deinit` drops the trailing `parent.dealloc(xx a)` — the
caller's local owns the storage.
FFI IR snapshots regenerated to reflect the new signatures:
`@GPA.init` returns `i64` (was `ptr`); `@Arena.init` and
`@TrackingAllocator.init` use sret returns (was `ptr`).
CLAUDE.md "Allocator construction" rule rewritten around the
by-value convention. The forbidden caller-provides-storage and
redundant-pointer-rename patterns are still forbidden but for the
right reasons now (verbose, fragile) rather than as a workaround
for the old `init() -> *T` shape.
157/157 example tests pass; chess clean on macOS, iOS sim, and
Android via `tools/verify-step.sh`.

lang: xx <lvalue> borrows the operand's storage instead of heap-copying
`xx <struct-typed local>` used to heap-copy the value through context.allocator.
The protocol value's `ctx` pointed at the heap copy; the original local was
left behind, untouched. Mutations through the protocol never reached the
original, and direct reads of the original never saw protocol mutations.
Two-fork bug, silent, easy to write by mistake.
New rule (Option 3 in the discussion):
- `xx <lvalue>` — identifier, field access, index expression, deref —
borrows the operand's storage. No heap copy, no `free` needed.
- `xx <rvalue>` — struct literal, function-call result, arithmetic, etc. —
heap-copies through context.allocator. Unchanged from today.
- `xx @ptr` and `xx <pointer-typed value>` — borrows the pointee. Unchanged.
Single switch in `buildProtocolErasure` ([lower.zig:10334](src/ir/lower.zig#L10334))
gated by a new `isLvalueExpr` helper ([lower.zig:10322](src/ir/lower.zig#L10322)).
Struct-typed operand: if the AST shape is identifier/field/index/deref,
emit `lowerExprAsPtr(operand_node)` and skip the heap-copy; otherwise
keep the alloca-store-heap_copy path.
specs.md §3 ownership table extended to three rows (rvalue, lvalue,
pointer) with examples and rationale per row.
Regressions:
- `examples/130-xx-value-routes-through-context-allocator.sx` — the
Phase 1.1 witness for heap-copy-via-context-allocator. Previous shape
(`xx <local-value>`) is now a borrow under Option 3 and no longer
exercises the heap-copy path. Rewritten to use a struct literal
(`xx ByValue.{...}`) which still heap-copies through context.allocator
— Tracer.count = 1 as before.
- `examples/135-xx-lvalue-borrows.sx` — new test. Dereferences a
TrackingAllocator into a stack value, does `xx tracker` inside a
push Context, and asserts alloc_count/dealloc_count on the LOCAL go
up. Under old semantics this would have stayed at 0 (heap copy got
the increments, local stayed stale).
157/157 example tests pass; chess clean on macOS / iOS sim / Android
(`tools/verify-step.sh` ran green immediately before this work).

mem: Phase 1.4 — serialize every interp Value variant for #run globals
`valueToLLVMConst` in emit_llvm previously handled int / float / boolean
and collapsed everything else into `LLVMConstNull(ty)`. A `#run` returning
a struct, string, function pointer, or anything aggregate produced a
zero-initialized global silently — the comptime result was computed by
the interp, then thrown away when emit_llvm couldn't represent it.
Replaced with a real walk:
- int / float / boolean — as before.
- null_val — `LLVMConstNull`.
- void_val / undef — `LLVMGetUndef`.
- func_ref — `func_map` lookup (already populated for the implicit-Context
static initializer of `__sx_default_context`).
- string — `emitConstStringGlobal`, returns a pointer to the byte array.
- aggregate — recurse field-by-field. Struct: walk
`LLVMStructGetTypeAtIndex` and emit `LLVMConstNamedStruct`. Array:
walk `LLVMGetElementType` and emit `LLVMConstArray2`.
The remaining variants (heap_ptr, byte_ptr, slot_ptr, closure, type_tag)
bail loudly with a `std.debug.print` carrying the global name — per
CLAUDE.md REJECTED PATTERNS, no more silent unimplemented arms. heap_ptr
serialization requires threading the IR `TypeId` so the heap content can
be walked recursively; deferred to Phase 1.4a alongside cycle detection.
The call site at emit_llvm.zig:676 now passes `global.name` so the
diagnostic locates the offending `#run` binding.
Type-inference fix at the binding site: `NAME :: #run expr;` with no
annotation used to default to `s64` via `resolveType(null) -> .s64`,
so even a successful Phase 1.4 serialization would emit `{0, 0}` —
the global's destination type was wrong. `lowerComptimeGlobal` now
calls `inferExprType(expr)` when no annotation is given, so the
inferred type matches the comptime function's return type. The
broader `resolveType(null)` fallback is left in place for other
callers — flagged in the MEM checkpoint as a follow-up audit.
Regression: `examples/134-comptime-aggregate-global.sx` exercises
`POINT :: #run make_point()` returning a `Point { x: s32, y: s32 }`.
Both interp (`sx run`) and codegen (`sx build`) now print
`POINT.x = 7 / POINT.y = 13` instead of `0 / 0`. 156/156 example
tests pass; chess unchanged.

mem: Phase 1.3 — closure env allocation through context.allocator
The closure trampoline's env-buffer heap-copy in `lowerLambda` used to
call `.heap_alloc` directly (libc malloc, no protocol). Now it routes
through `allocViaContext` like every other compiler-internal alloc,
so a closure created inside `push Context.{ allocator = ... }` honors
the installed allocator — trackers count the env, arenas absorb it,
custom allocators see it. Closes the last `.heap_alloc` shortcut for
sx-internal allocations.
One ordering subtlety fixed alongside: the deferred restore of
`current_ctx_ref` at lowerLambda exit fired AFTER the env-and-closure
build section, so `allocViaContext` was reading `Ref.fromIndex(0)`
(the lambda's own ctx param, only valid inside the lambda body) when
emitting the alloc in the CALLER's scope. Without the explicit
restore, the env_heap dispatch silently routed through the default
context — the captured tracker never saw it. Fixed by restoring
`current_ctx_ref` right after `self.builder.func = saved_func`, before
the env build.
Regression test: `examples/133-closure-env-routes-through-context-allocator.sx`
mirrors the 130-xx-value pattern — install a Tracer via `push Context`,
create a capturing closure inside, assert `Tracer.count = 1`. Without
the fix the count is 0 (env goes through default context). Verified
by stashing the lower.zig change and re-running.
Bonus: `examples/50-smoke.sx` "closure-gpa" output flips from
`allocs=-1` to `allocs=0`. The old `-1` was the bug's signature —
the test manually `dealloc`'d the env after the closure ran, but the
GPA had never seen the matching alloc, so its counter went negative.
With Phase 1.3 the alloc/dealloc balance at 0. Snapshot regen.
155/155 example tests pass (133 new + 50-smoke regen). Chess green on
macOS / iOS sim / Android.

mem: thread val_ty through inst.Store; per-width comptime regression test
The interp's `storeAtRawPtr` used to write 8 bytes from a `.int` / `.float` Value regardless of the destination's declared width. The Value tag flattens s8..s64/u*/pointer all to `.int`, so it can't disambiguate widths on its own — every store risked clobbering up to 7 neighbor bytes if the actual IR type was sub-8. Fix: - `inst.Store` gains `val_ty: TypeId` (defaults to `.void` for backward compat with the LLVM emitter, which doesn't read it). - `builder.store` captures `getRefType(val)` at emit time. - `storeAtRawPtr` now takes `val_ty`, looks up `types.typeSizeBytes(val_ty)`, and writes exactly that many bytes: `.int` → width bytes of the i64 representation (1..8), `.float` → 4 (f32 round-trip via @floatCast) or 8, `.boolean` → 1 (zeros higher width bytes when destination is wider), `.null_val` → width bytes of zero. Width outside the expected band bails with a clear diagnostic. Regression test: `examples/132-comptime-typed-store-widths.sx`. For every primitive type (u8/u16/u32/u64, s8/s16/s32/s64, bool, f32, f64), the test: 1. Allocates a 32-byte libc buffer through `context.allocator`. 2. Fills with sentinel byte 0xAA. 3. Writes ONE typed value at offset 8. 4. Sums every byte back. 5. Compares the runtime checksum (LLVM-emitted store, already correct) against a comptime checksum baked via `#run`. Mismatch = neighbor clobber. The test exits non-zero with a per-width "FAIL u8: comptime=X runtime=Y" line so future regressions surface the offending width. Also wired: - Interp's `index_get` gains `.int` / `.byte_ptr` base arms — `buf[i]` through a raw libc-malloc'd pointer reads one byte at offset i. Used by the new test's `sum_bytes` loop; previously bailed at `op=index_get`. - `emit_llvm`'s comptime-init catch block prints a real diagnostic instead of swallowing the error and filling the const with zero. Stale bail state from a previous init is cleared before each call. 154/154 example tests pass (the new test + the existing 153). Chess still green on macOS / iOS sim / Android. |

mem: reject call-conv mismatches at bare-fn → fn-ptr coercion
Passing a default-conv sx function to a `callconv(.c)` fn-pointer slot (e.g. pthread_create's start routine) used to silently mismatch ABIs: the C-side caller didn't supply __sx_ctx, so the sx-side body read its first user param as garbage. The bug surfaced as a SIGSEGV inside ANativeWindow_setBuffersGeometry on Android during chess bringup. Now the compiler rejects the coercion outright at the bare-fn name lookup site: error: call-convention mismatch: 'sx_handler' is declared with default sx convention but the target type expects callconv(.c) Also: `#foreign` declarations without an explicit `callconv` now default to `.c` instead of `.default`. Every external C symbol is by definition C-conv; the previous default silently typed `objc_msgSend` (et al.) as default-conv, so the check would fire on the consumer side when the user typed a fn-ptr as `callconv(.c)`. With the foreign-default fix, the existing typed-msgSend casts in `std/objc.sx` and `gpu/metal.sx` keep type-checking and the rule is "C-conv on both sides or neither." Caught by the new check (fixed in the same commit): - `ios_gl_proc` in `platform/uikit.sx` lacked callconv(.c) but was passed to `load_gl` whose `get_proc` slot expects it. - `ffi_apply_callback` / `ffi_apply_callback2` in `examples/ffi-06-callback.sx` had default-conv fn-ptr params but the C bodies (in the companion .c) are unambiguously C-conv. Regression test: `examples/131-callconv-mismatch-diagnostic.sx` locks in the diagnostic shape (sx-conv fn → callconv(.c) slot). 153/153 example tests pass. Chess green on macOS / iOS sim / Android. |

mem: Step 3 — thread __sx_ctx through closure/fn-pointer/method dispatch
Continues the implicit-Context refactor. Bare-fn trampolines, lambda trampolines, and protocol thunks now carry __sx_ctx at slot 0; call sites for closures, fn-pointer variables, and method dispatch prepend the caller's current ctx. - emit_llvm.zig:1687 call_indirect treats `fp_ctx_slots` leading args as opaque ptr (the implicit ctx) when the fn-pointer is default-conv under has_implicit_ctx. - lower.zig:fnPtrTypeWantsCtx predicate gates the prepend at both scope-local and global fn-pointer call sites. - lower.zig:fixupMethodReceiver skips __sx_ctx when probing the receiver param's type. - lower.zig:lowerLambda builds closure type from user-visible params only (skip ctx + env). - lower.zig:closure(bare_fn) builds closure type from user-visible params only. - module.zig: Module.has_implicit_ctx flag mirrors Lowering's switch so emit_llvm can read it without a back-pointer. Tests updated: - 5 ObjC-block/runtime tests get `callconv(.c)` on fn-ptr types cast from `objc_msgSend` / Block.invoke (C-side calls into sx). - ffi-06-callback gets `callconv(.c)` on double_it/add_with_ctx — the registered C-side callbacks. - 08-types snapshot regen (undefined-init drift from layout shift). - 11 JNI/ObjC .ir snapshots regen for the ctx-prepended thunk signatures. 151/152 example tests pass. Remaining failure (05-run) is the comptime/interp path that requires Step 7 (callWithDefaultContext). |

mem: implicit-context foundation + many compiler fixes
The session-long set of changes that lay the groundwork for the
Jai-literal implicit-Context-parameter refactor. Lots of accumulated
work; the new arrival is the implicit-ctx foundation (steps 1+2 of
the plan in current/CHECKPOINT-MEM.md):
Step 1 — `CAllocator :: struct {}` stateless allocator in
library/modules/allocators.sx, delegating directly to
libc_malloc/libc_free. `ConstantValue` in src/ir/inst.zig gains a
`func_ref: FuncId` leaf so nested aggregates can carry function
pointers (the inline Allocator value's fn-ptr fields). Switch
sites updated in emit_llvm.zig, print.zig, interp.zig.
Step 2 — `emitDefaultContextGlobal` in src/ir/lower.zig synthesises
a static `__sx_default_context` global with a nested-aggregate
init_val pointing at the CAllocator → Allocator thunks. The
second-pass `initVtableGlobals` in emit_llvm.zig is generalised
to handle `.aggregate` init_vals (re-emits after func_map is
populated so func_ref leaves resolve to real symbols).
Also folded in from earlier work this session:
- Phase 1.1: `xx value` heap-copy in `buildProtocolValue` routes
through `context.allocator` via the new `allocViaContext` helper.
- interp.zig: `marshalForeignArg` double-offset bug fixed —
`heapSlice` already adds `hp.offset` to the slice ptr, so the
extra `+ hp.offset` was scribbling memcpy/memset into adjacent
heap state, corrupting `heap.items[0]`. Symptom: `build_format`
at comptime produced zero bytes, all `print` calls failed.
- Lazy lowering: `lazyLowerFunction` now declares foreign-body
functions as extern stubs in the local (comptime) module so
cross-module foreign calls resolve.
- Allocator API: all stdlib allocators on one-line `init() -> *T`
(CAllocator/GPA: libc-backed; Arena/TrackingAllocator: parent-
backed; BufAlloc: embeds state at head of user buffer).
- issues 0038 (transitive #import), 0039 (chess + stdlib migration
fallout), 0040 (generic struct method dot-dispatch), 0041
(pointer types as type-arg), 0042 (alias name resolution) — all
fixed; regression tests in examples/.
- Diagnostic: `emitError` now embeds the lowering's
`current_source_file` and enclosing function in the literal
message; SX_TRACE_UNRESOLVED=1 dumps a Zig stack trace at the
emit site so misattributed spans can't hide where the failure
is.
- tools/verify-step.sh (all-platforms gate) and tools/scratch.sh
(interp/codegen parity tester) added.
Test suite: 152 example tests pass; chess builds + screenshots on
macOS / iOS sim / Android.

bundling: Android APK pipeline moved into sx; android.sx state-on-plat
Week 7 of /Users/agra/.claude/plans/lets-plan-to-move-splendid-pumpkin.md
plus the android.sx refactor + three sx-compiler fixes hit along the way
to get chess on Pixel 7 Pro responding to touch end-to-end.
library/modules/platform/bundle.sx now covers the Android APK shape
alongside macOS / iOS-sim / iOS-device. `android_bundle_main` discovers
the SDK ($ANDROID_HOME / $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT / $HOME/Library/Android/sdk),
picks the highest-versioned build-tools + platforms via
`process.run("ls .. | sort -V | tail -1")`, stages
`<apk>.stage/lib/arm64-v8a/<libfoo.so>`, synthesizes
AndroidManifest.xml (NativeActivity vs `#jni_main` Activity branch),
writes each `#jni_main` decl's Java source under
`<stage>/java/<pkg>/<Cls>.java`, runs javac --release 11 + d8 to
produce classes.dex, aapt2-links the unaligned APK, appends lib/ +
classes.dex + each registered asset tree via zip, zipalign + ensure
debug keystore via keytool + apksigner sign.
Compiler-side accessors (src/ir/compiler_hooks.zig + library/modules/compiler.sx):
- is_android predicate.
- set_manifest_path / manifest_path + set_keystore_path / keystore_path.
- jni_main_count / jni_main_foreign_path_at(i) /
jni_main_java_source_at(i) surface the `#jni_main` emissions that
the Zig createApk previously consumed directly.
- main.zig wires manifest_path, keystore_path, and the per-decl
(foreign_path, java_source) parallel slices into BuildConfig before
invoking the post-link callback.
CLI `--apk <path>` keeps working as a transitional alias: it now feeds
bundle_path so the existing auto-`post_link_module = "platform.bundle"`
shim fires the same way as `--bundle`. main.zig no longer calls
target.createApk directly.
Deletions in src/target.zig: createApk, compileJniMainSources,
buildJniMainManifest, buildAndroidManifest, ensureDebugKeystore,
libNameFromSoBasename, plus helpers splitForeignPath / discoverJavac /
discoverAndroidSdk / findHighestSubdir / runProcess / runProcessIn
(~400 lines). git grep returns only the obituary comment.
library/modules/platform/android.sx refactor (chess Android dependency):
- Module-level globals retired (g_app_window, g_egl_*, g_viewport_*,
g_dpi_scale, g_should_stop, g_render_thread*, g_user_main_fn,
g_touch_*) → AndroidPlatform struct fields.
- All sx_android_* helpers take `plat: *AndroidPlatform` as first arg.
Render thread receives plat via pthread_create's arg.
- New `logical_w: f32 = 0.0` field. Consumers set it before init() to
define the design width in points; `recompute_scale` derives
`dpi_scale = pixel_w / logical_w` (or 1.0 if unset). Called on
init / set_viewport / egl_init. drain_touches divides incoming
physical pixel coords by dpi_scale so chess sees logical-space
positions matching its layout. Touch lands on the right squares.
Three sx-compiler bugs hit + fixed along the way:
1. Top-level `inline if OS == .X { decls }` body decls were silently
dropped because scanDecls/lowerDecls had no .if_expr arm. New
`flattenComptimeConditionals` pre-pass in src/imports.zig
(threaded via ComptimeContext from core.zig) hoists matching arms
recursively. Regression at examples/124-inline-if-hoist-toplevel.sx.
2. Parser rejected `#import` / `#framework` inside inline-if bodies
because parseStmt in src/parser.zig only had arms for `#insert`.
Added the missing arms. Regression at
examples/123-inline-if-import-in-body.sx (landed earlier).
3. JNI `Call<T>Method` switches in src/ir/emit_llvm.zig (instance /
nonvirtual / static) were missing `.f32` rows — jfloat returns
(e.g. MotionEvent.getX/getY) fell into the silent-undef else arm.
Chess's sx_android_push_touch(plat, getAction(), getX(), getY())
delivered garbage f32 coords to the touch ring, so taps landed
nowhere recognisable. Added `.f32 => Jni.Call{Static,Nonvirtual,}FloatMethod`
rows to all three switches; lifted unsupported-type detection
from emit_llvm into lowerForeignMethodCall with proper
source-spanned diagnostics (`isJniReturnTypeSupported`). Regressions
at examples/ffi-jni-call-10-jfloat-return.sx,
examples/ffi-jni-class-09-multi-float-args.sx,
examples/ffi-jni-call-11-unsupported-return-diag.sx.
Stale-snapshot drift in tests/expected/ffi-objc-call-03-selector-sharing.ir
and ffi-objc-call-06-sret-return.ir picks up the new BuildOptions
accessor extern decls (is_android, set_manifest_path,
set_keystore_path, jni_main_count, jni_main_foreign_path_at,
jni_main_java_source_at). Verified diff is dead-decl-only.
Chess on Pixel 7 Pro: tap on e2 white pawn -> yellow selection +
green dots on legal e3/e4 targets; tap on e4 -> board updates with
1. e4, "Black to move" + "1. e4" in info panel.
zig build && zig build test && bash tests/run_examples.sh -> 145/145
green. bash tests/cross_compile.sh -> 7/7 green.

bundling: fs/process stdlib + post-link callback + Apple .app in sx
Campaign Weeks 3-6 of /Users/agra/.claude/plans/lets-plan-to-move-splendid-pumpkin.md
land in one push: the bundling pipeline that used to live in
src/target.zig (createBundle, embedFramework, extractEntitlements,
buildInfoPlist, codesign) now lives in
library/modules/platform/bundle.sx and runs in the IR interpreter
after target.link() returns.
New language-side surface:
- library/modules/fs.sx — POSIX libc bindings (open/read/write/close,
mkdir/unlink/rmdir, chmod, rename, access, basename/dirname). Variadic
open() lowers to C's varargs via the new args: ..T form. Direct libc
calls bypass *File method dispatch so they work from the post-link
IR interpreter.
- library/modules/process.sx — popen-based run(cmd) returning
ProcessResult{ exit_code, stdout }, plus env() and find_executable().
- library/modules/std.sx — xml_escape(s) and variadic path_join(parts).
- library/modules/compiler.sx — BuildOptions grows
set_post_link_callback / set_post_link_module / binary_path
accessors; bundle_path/bundle_id/codesign_identity/provisioning_profile
setters + accessors; per-target predicates is_macos/is_ios/
is_ios_device/is_ios_simulator + target_triple; framework_count /
framework_at(i) / framework_path_count / framework_path_at(i);
add_asset_dir(src, dest) + asset_dir_count / src_at / dest_at.
Compiler-side wiring:
- src/ir/compiler_hooks.zig — BuildConfig now carries post_link_callback_fn,
post_link_module, binary_path, bundle_*, target_triple,
target_frameworks, target_framework_paths, asset_dirs. Hook registry
exposes every accessor; getters return "" / 0 for unset fields so
bundle.sx can treat absent values uniformly.
- src/ir/host_ffi.zig (new) — dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT) + arity-switched cdecl
trampolines so #foreign("c") declarations resolve through the host
libc during #run / post-link interpretation.
- src/ir/interp.zig — callForeign dispatch; build_config pointer
injection so accessor hooks see live state during re-entry.
- src/core.zig — keeps the IR module alive past generateCode; exposes
invokeByName / invokeByFuncId so main.zig can re-enter the
interpreter after linking.
- src/main.zig — wires bundle/codesign/provisioning CLI flags +
target_triple + framework lists into BuildConfig; invokes the
post-link callback (by FuncId or by <module>.bundle_main lookup) once
target.link() returns. When --bundle is set but no callback is
registered, auto-falls-back to post_link_module = "platform.bundle"
so the legacy --bundle CLI keeps working for any program that imports
modules/platform/bundle.sx.
Apple .app bundler (library/modules/platform/bundle.sx):
- Single bundle_main entry covers macOS, iOS simulator, iOS device.
Per-target Info.plist switch keys off is_ios()/is_ios_simulator() —
iOS emits UIDeviceFamily / LSRequiresIPhoneOS /
UIApplicationSceneManifest / DTPlatformName (iPhoneOS or
iPhoneSimulator); macOS emits the minimal CFBundle* set.
- iOS-only steps:
- Provisioning embed: fs.read_file + fs.write_file to
<bundle>/embedded.mobileprovision.
- Framework embed: recursive cp -R per -F search path into
<bundle>/Frameworks/<Name>.framework/ (until fs.sx grows list_dir).
- Entitlements extraction: four process.run calls (security cms -D,
plutil -extract Entitlements xml1, plutil -extract
ApplicationIdentifierPrefix.0, plutil -replace application-identifier)
resolving the wildcard <TEAM>.* -> <TEAM>.<bundle_id>.
- Real codesign with --entitlements when present.
- Asset dirs (add_asset_dir): recursive cp -R src/. into <bundle>/dest/.
Missing src is treated as "nothing to do" so projects can register
add_asset_dir("assets", "assets") unconditionally.
Parser:
- parseStmt() now accepts #import \"path\"; and #framework \"Name\"; as
statement-position tokens. Needed for top-level
inline if OS == .android { #import \"modules/platform/android.sx\"; }
blocks (issue-0042 flatten pass surfaces them); chess's
inline-if-with-#import was rejected at parse time before this fix.
Removals from src/target.zig:
- createBundle, embedFramework, extractEntitlements, buildInfoPlist,
codesign (~210 lines). main.zig no longer calls createBundle after
link(); the sx callback is the single entry point.
Tests / regression markers (all run under sx run host JIT):
- examples/115-post-link-callback.sx — callback registration round-trip.
- examples/116-fs-roundtrip.sx — fs.write_file -> fs.read_file -> exists.
- examples/117-process-roundtrip.sx — process.run + env + find_executable.
- examples/118-macos-bundle.sx — macOS .app via bundle_main callback.
- examples/119-interp-cast-ptr-cmp.sx — cast(T) val under interpreter.
- examples/120-interp-variadic-any.sx — variadic ..Any indexing in IR
interpreter.
- examples/121-ios-sim-bundle.sx — iOS-sim cross-compile + .app with
iOS-shaped Info.plist (added to tests/cross_compile.sh as the
ios-sim tuple).
- examples/122-ios-device-bundle.sx — iOS device cross-compile +
full codesign pipeline (provisioning embed + entitlements
extraction + --entitlements codesign). Manually verified end-to-end:
installed via xcrun devicectl device install app + launched
successfully on iPhone 17 Pro.
- examples/123-inline-if-import-in-body.sx — locks in the parser fix.

ffi #foreign: C-variadic tail via args: ..T
Trailing `args: ..T` on a #foreign declaration now lowers to the C calling convention's `...` instead of sx-side slice-packing. Drops the per-arity #foreign-shim workaround for callers of variadic C APIs (__android_log_print, printf-family, etc.). Closes issue-0043. - IR: Function.is_variadic on inst.Function; declareFunction drops the variadic param from the IR signature for foreign+variadic decls. - emit_llvm: LLVMFunctionType receives is_var_arg=1 when the flag is set; call lowering passes extras through unchanged. - Lowering: packVariadicCallArgs early-outs for foreign+variadic (no slice-pack); new promoteCVariadicArgs applies C default argument promotion (bool/s8/s16/u8/u16 -> s32, f32 -> f64) to extras past the fixed param count. - Test: examples/ffi-foreign-cvariadic.sx + .c exercise s64/f64/s32 returns through C va_arg over s32/f64/*u8 element types. 134 host + 6 cross tests pass on the WIP-less baseline. |

ffi #jni_main: Alias.new(args) constructor dispatch via JNI NewObject
Adds the constructor-invocation arm of the foreign-class DSL:
`SurfaceView.new(ctx)` (where `SurfaceView` is a `#foreign #jni_class`
with `static new :: (ctx: *Context) -> *Self;`) lowers to
`FindClass(env, "android/view/SurfaceView") + GetMethodID(env, cls,
"<init>", "(args)V") + NewObject(env, cls, mid, args...)`. Returns
the fresh jobject.
- inst.zig: `JniMsgSend.is_constructor` flag + `parent_class_path`
re-purposed to carry the class being constructed (alongside its
existing nonvirtual-super-class use). Mutually exclusive with
`is_static` / `is_nonvirtual`.
- lower.zig: `lowerCall.field_access` arm now recognises
`Alias.method(args)` where `Alias` resolves in `foreign_class_map`
and the matching member is `static`. `new` routes to a new
`lowerForeignStaticCall` that derives a `(args)V` JNI descriptor
and emits a `JniMsgSend` with `is_constructor=true`. Non-`new`
static calls report a clear "use #jni_static_call" diagnostic
until that sugar lands.
- emit_llvm.zig: new `NewObject` vtable slot (28) + `emitJniConstructor`
helper expanding the FindClass+GetMethodID+NewObject chain. The
jni_msg_send arm short-circuits to it when `is_constructor` is set.
Smoke `ffi-jni-main-03-ctor.sx` exercises both this slice and the
previous super-dispatch slice in a single `onCreate` body: calls
`super.onCreate(b)` then constructs a `SurfaceView` with the Activity
as Context. IR shows the expected six-stage chain (FindClass+GetMethodID+
CallNonvirtual + FindClass+GetMethodID+NewObject); APK builds clean.
Naming caveat: the Java type `android.content.Context` clashes with
sx stdlib's `Context :: struct {...}` (heap-context). The smoke aliases
it `JContext` — future work could add a path-prefix or `as` rename
form on `#jni_class` to avoid the manual rename.
133 host / 6 cross / zig build test all green.

ffi #jni_main: sx-side super.method(args) dispatch via CallNonvirtual<T>Method
Inside a `#jni_main` (or any sx-defined `#jni_class`) bodied method,
`super.method(args)` lowers to JNI's nonvirtual dispatch against the
parent class resolved via `#extends` (default `android.app.Activity`).
- lower.zig: tracks `current_foreign_class` + `current_foreign_method`
around each `synthesizeJniMainStub` body; pushes the JNIEnv* arg
onto the lexical `#jni_env` stack so omitted-env JNI calls inside
the body see env without a wrapper. New `lowerSuperCall` handles
the `super.method(args)` receiver pattern: derives parent path,
reuses the enclosing method's signature when names match (the
common `super.<override>(args)` case), or looks up the method on
the parent class declared as `#foreign #jni_class`.
- inst.zig: `JniMsgSend` gains `is_nonvirtual: bool` and
`parent_class_path: ?[]const u8` — the dispatch tag + super class
foreign path. Mutually exclusive with `is_static`.
- emit_llvm.zig: new `CallNonvirtual<T>Method` vtable slots + a
fourth dispatch arm. Resolves the parent jclass via
`FindClass(env, parent_path)` (per-call; caching is follow-up),
then `GetMethodID(env, parent_cls, name, sig)`, then
`CallNonvirtual<T>Method(env, obj, parent_cls, mid, args...)`.
Disassembly on the smoke confirms the chain:
`ldr [env+0x30]` (FindClass) → `ldr [env+0x108]` (GetMethodID) →
`ldr [env+0x2d8]` (CallNonvirtualVoidMethod) with `(env, self,
parent_cls, mid, bundle)`.
132 host / 5 cross / zig build test all green. The slice unblocks
Activity lifecycle overrides (onCreate, onResume, onPause) calling
their required `super.<method>(args)` without raw `#jni_call`
boilerplate.
