Surface rename of the signed integer family: s1..s64 become i1..i64
(u1..u64, usize, isize unchanged). 'string' keeps the s-prefix arm in
name classification; width parsing moves to the i-prefix arm next to
isize.
Internal TypeId tags follow the surface (.s8/.s16/.s32/.s64 ->
.i8/.i16/.i32/.i64), as do mono-key mangle fragments (ptr_i64,
tu_i64_bool) and all display/diagnostic formatting (i{d}).
Migrated in the same sweep: stdlib + examples + issue repros + FFI C
companions (shared symbol names like ffi_id_i64), expected
stdout/stderr/ir snapshots, specs.md, readme.md, CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md,
implementation_plan.md, docs/, issue writeups. Vendored stb_image and
historical flow state left untouched.
zig build test: 426/426; examples suite: 595/595.
try foo() catch (e) { } // legal
try foo() catch e { } // parse error with a migration hint
Same capture style as the for-loop. All four catch shapes keep working
with the parenthesized binding — block, bare-expression body, and the
== match sugar — and the no-binding forms are unchanged. onfail follows
the same rule (onfail (e) { }); its expression-cleanup form is
disambiguated by the paren-group-before-brace lookahead, so
onfail (f()); stays an expression cleanup.
AST unchanged; the printer renders the parens; the #run escape help
text updated. Corpus migrated (57 catch + 3 onfail bindings, in-source
parser test strings, specs incl. grammar rules, readme untouched —
no catch examples there).
Regression: examples/1157-diagnostics-catch-binding-needs-parens.sx;
re-captured stderr for 1010/1013/1037/1123 (migrated source echoed in
carets + help text).
Two more E5.1 composition pieces:
- inferExprType .call: a callee that's a local variable of bare type
() now resolves to its declared return type (only
was handled before), so / on the call see the failable result
instead of .
- createClosureToBareFnAdapter now widens: when a NON-failable closure literal
flows into a failable bare slot (∅ ⊆ slot set, success type matches), the
adapter wraps the value into the slot's tuple via
lowerFailableSuccessReturn — previously rejected. The failable->non-failable
and capturing->bare crossings stay rejected.
Adapter generation fires for closure LITERALS flowing into a bare-fn slot; a
pre-bound closure VARIABLE into a bare-fn slot is a separate coercion-site path,
still unhandled (noted in CHECKPOINT-ERR). Regression:
examples/1040-errors-failable-closure-composition. Suite: 329 passed.
