* expander: support param macros in nested macro param lists.Kaz Kylheku2023-05-271-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Parameter list macros work in inside macro parameter lists, like they do in function parameter lists. However, they ony work at the top level. Macro parameter lists are nested; they may contain nested parameter lists that match corresponding shapes in the argument list. This patch extends parameter list macros to work in nested macro parameter lists. * eval.c (expand_opt_params_rec, expand_params_rec): These two functions must be extended to take a body argument, and to return not just an expanded parameter list but a parameter list accompanied by a body. We do that by making them return a cons cell, whose car is the expanded parameter list and the cdr is the possibly transformed body. Additionally, these functions now call expand_param_macro on nested macro parameter lists. (expand_params): This function becomes slightly simpler as a result of the above changes. Because expand_params_rec already returns a cons cell holding a parameter list and body, we just return that as-is. * tests/011/keyparams.tl: Added some tests of this, vie the standard :key parameter list macro. A macro is tested which has a nested (:key ...) parameter list in a required parameter position as well as in an optional position. * txr.1: Documented.
* keyparams: fix broken.Kaz Kylheku2022-01-171-0/+38
Issues reported by user vapnik spaknik. The evaluation of init forms is incorrect. Init forms like '(x) evaluate to '(x) rather than (x), Also, init forms are evaluated even when the argument is present, so the entire current approach is wrong. * stdlib/keyparams.tl (extract-keys, extract-keys-p, build-key-list-expr): Functions removed. (stuff-key-params): New function. (:key): Rework using simplified approach, with just the stuff-key-params helper. All variables from the keyword parameter list are bound with let. Generated code searches the keyword parameters for values and assigns the variables as needed, evaluating default init forms in the not-found cases. * tests/011/keyparams.tl: New file.
