The type of
homog_aggended up being likeTuple(Type, Int32 | UInt64)?but usingUInt64all the time works.There's really no need to do this change, but... with this, the interpreter can process a lot more files. It's a bit of cheating, because the interpreter should support this, but right now I'm a bit lazy to implement that. I will! Eventually...
But with this change, for instance, the interpreter can already interpreter the compiler's formatter, and even doing something like
crystal i src/compiler/crystal.cr tool format foo.crworks 馃槷That said, it still takes a lot of time... doing the semantic analysis takes the same time, of course, but then producing bytecode, when there's a lot of code, takes a significant amount of time. It's less that what it takes to generate LLVM, but it's also not incredibly fast. Maybe there's still room for optimization!
(just to curb your enthusiasm, the interpreter might not be a fast alternative to compiled mode, but at least it will bring a repl and a debugger 馃し )
