Triage pass: every issue file in `issues/` was re-verified against HEAD. Three (0041, 0042, 0043) reproduce no longer — they were silently fixed by adjacent work since the issue was filed. 0047 landed in the previous commit. All four header sections now lead with **FIXED** + a one-line locator so the next reader doesn't re-investigate. After this, `issues/` is the actual open-issue list: | Issue | Status | |---|---| | 0041 | FIXED (silently, by alias/parser work) | | 0042 | FIXED (silently, type_alias_map lookup landed) | | 0043 | FIXED (silently, lazy-lower foreign-class dispatch) | | 0044 | FIXED | | 0045 | FIXED | | 0046 | FIXED | | 0047 | FIXED (commit0119c9c) | | 0048 | FIXED (commit0ede097) | | 0049 | FIXED (commitb5301c4) | | 0050 | FIXED (commit5316bf7) | No open issues remain. The files stay in tree as a record; new issues take the next free number (0051).

**FIXED** in commit `0119c9c`. Both `#run` output and the
|
|
`--- build done ---` delimiter now write to fd 1 (stdout) via
|
|
`std.c.write` from `core.flushInterpOutput` and main.zig's
|
|
delimiter site. Test runner uses `2>&1` so snapshots are
|
|
unaffected.
|
|
|
|
# Symptom
|
|
|
|
`#run print(...)` output lands on **stderr**; runtime `print(...)`
|
|
output lands on **stdout**. The test runner captures both via
|
|
`2>&1` so they appear interleaved in snapshots, but for a human
|
|
running `sx run foo.sx` and piping stdout somewhere — or in any
|
|
context that separates the streams — the compile-time output
|
|
silently goes to a different place than the runtime output.
|
|
|
|
The recently-landed `--- build done ---` delimiter (commit
|
|
`2993072`) makes the boundary visible in test logs but doesn't
|
|
fix the underlying split.
|
|
|
|
# Reproduction
|
|
|
|
```sx
|
|
#import "modules/std.sx";
|
|
|
|
configure :: () {
|
|
print("hello from #run\n");
|
|
}
|
|
#run configure();
|
|
|
|
main :: () -> s32 {
|
|
print("hello from runtime\n");
|
|
return 0;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ./zig-out/bin/sx run repro.sx > /tmp/stdout.txt 2> /tmp/stderr.txt
|
|
$ cat /tmp/stdout.txt
|
|
hello from runtime
|
|
$ cat /tmp/stderr.txt
|
|
hello from #run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Expected (most consistent): both on stdout — both are `print`
|
|
calls in user code; the user doesn't distinguish "build-time
|
|
print" from "runtime print" at the call site.
|
|
|
|
# Root cause
|
|
|
|
The interp accumulates `print` output into an internal buffer
|
|
(`Interpreter.output: []u8`) via the `out` builtin
|
|
(`src/ir/interp.zig:1678-1683`). After the interp returns, the
|
|
buffer is flushed to **stderr** via `std.debug.print` from
|
|
`src/core.zig:187` and `src/core.zig:190`.
|
|
|
|
The JIT-executed runtime `print` lowers through `BuiltinId.out`
|
|
in `emit_llvm.zig:2936-2954` which emits `write(1, ptr, len)` —
|
|
directly to fd 1 (stdout).
|
|
|
|
So the split is at the flush call in `core.zig`, not at the
|
|
print mechanism itself.
|
|
|
|
# Investigation prompt
|
|
|
|
For a fresh session picking this up:
|
|
|
|
The fix is small in code but touches a few callers. The two
|
|
`std.debug.print("{s}", .{interp.output.items})` sites at
|
|
`src/core.zig:187` and `:190` should write to stdout instead.
|
|
|
|
Options for the stdout write:
|
|
1. **libc write(1, ...)** via `std.c.write(1, ptr, len)`. Direct,
|
|
no Zig std buffering, interleaves correctly with `--- build
|
|
done ---` (also direct to stderr).
|
|
2. **std.posix.write(std.posix.STDOUT_FILENO, ...)** — Zig'\''s
|
|
typed wrapper. Same effect.
|
|
3. **std.fs.File.stdout() + writeAll** — more idiomatic but
|
|
may bring buffering complexity.
|
|
|
|
Whichever route, the order of writes vs the `--- build done ---`
|
|
delimiter (which currently goes to stderr) matters:
|
|
- If both #run output AND delimiter both go to stdout: ordering
|
|
preserved within stdout's buffer.
|
|
- If delimiter stays on stderr and #run goes to stdout: the
|
|
delimiter might appear out-of-order in mixed-stream captures.
|
|
|
|
Cleanest: move BOTH to stdout. The compile-error path (in
|
|
`renderErrors`) stays on stderr — only successful #run output
|
|
moves.
|
|
|
|
Other call sites that might leak `#run` output to stderr:
|
|
- `core.zig:187` — `invokeByFuncId` error path.
|
|
- `core.zig:190` — `invokeByFuncId` success path.
|
|
- Grep for `interp.output` to find others.
|
|
|
|
# Verification
|
|
|
|
After the fix, the repro above should produce:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ./zig-out/bin/sx run repro.sx > /tmp/stdout.txt 2> /tmp/stderr.txt
|
|
$ cat /tmp/stdout.txt
|
|
hello from #run
|
|
--- build done ---
|
|
hello from runtime
|
|
$ cat /tmp/stderr.txt
|
|
(empty)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Test snapshots for the 7 tests with top-level `#run` will need
|
|
to be re-`--update`d, but the visible content is the same —
|
|
just on the right stream now.
|
|
|
|
Full suite + `zig build test` must still pass.
