When calling metamethods for things like 'a < 3.0', which generates
the opcode OP_LTI, the C register tells that the operand was
converted to an integer, so that it can be corrected to float when
calling a metamethod.
This commit also includes some other stuff:
- file 'onelua.c' added to the project
- opcode OP_PREPVARARG renamed to OP_VARARGPREP
- comparison opcodes rewritten through macros
The numerical 'for' loop over integers now uses a precomputed counter
to control its number of iteractions. This change eliminates several
weird cases caused by overflows (wrap-around) in the control variable.
(It also ensures that every integer loop halts.)
Also, the special opcodes for the usual case of step==1 were removed.
(The new code is already somewhat complex for the usual case,
but efficient.)
(Long time without testing with '-DHARDSTACKTESTS'...)
With the introduction of to-be-closed variables, calls to 'luaF_close'
can move the stack, but some call sites where keeping pointers to the
stack without correcting them.
Added opcodes for all seven arithmetic operators with K operands
(that is, operands that are numbers in the array of constants of
the function). They cover the cases of constant float operands
(e.g., 'x + .0.0', 'x^0.5') and large integer operands (e.g.,
'x % 10000').
Added new instruction 'OP_TFORPREP' to prepare a generic for loop.
Currently it is equivalent to a jump (but with a format 'iABx',
similar to other for-loop preparing instructions), but soon it will
be the place to create upvalues for closing loop states.
Start of the implementation of "scoped variables" or "to be closed"
variables, local variables whose '__close' (or themselves) are called
when they go out of scope. This commit implements the syntax, the
opcode, and the creation of the corresponding upvalue, but it still
does not call the finalizations when the variable goes out of scope
(the most important part).
Currently, the syntax is 'local scoped name = exp', but that will
probably change.
