Hello Chapel Users and Developers! In case you missed it while perusing the extensive release notes for Chapel 1.13, the members of the Initializers Sub-team would like to call your attention to a proposal we've been working on during the past release cycle. This proposal, which can be read athttps://github.com/chapel-lang/chapel/blob/master/doc/chips/10.rst and is summarized in slides 7 through 20 ofhttp://chapel.cray.com/releaseNotes/1.13/09-ongoing.pdf, is aimed at describing a more robust set of rules and syntax for defining the initialization behavior of a class or record.
We considered many different challenges associated with the current status quo, and believe that the changes detailed in this document are what we would like to have implemented going forward. The document will be added to as we continue to discuss issues relevant to the new initializers story. In the meanwhile, please read and comment on the proposal raised - we have started to implement the changes, but your voice and opinion still matter to us!
