Revision Changes Path
1.1 parrot/languages/perl6/TODO
Index: TODO
===================================================================
A short-term list of todo items:
- Update and revise documentation.
- Move tests to match planned hierarchy.
http://p6stories.kwiki.org/index.cgi?ProposedTestHierarchy
(modify t/harness, Makefile and run_tests in perl6 to handle
multiple levels of hierarchy in t/)
- Switch to using real parrot lexical and global variables.
- Update calling conventions to match Melvin's IMCC simplifications
(.sub instead of .pcc_sub, etc).
- Update operators to match current set in p6 design.
- Re-implement exceptions using Parrot exceptions.
- Move builtin functions to separate modules written in Perl 6 code.
(In the process: implement module loading, implement features
necessary to make functions work, etc.)
- Hard-coded lists of operators are kept in P6C/Parser.pm,
P6C/AddContext.pm, P6C/IMCC/Binop.pm, P6C/IMCC.pm (P6C::Binop),
P6C/IMCC/hype.pm. Contain this morass, preferably with a single list
maintained in a single location.
- Change P6C::Tree::String's concat_list function so it doesn't insert
a literal "~" operator (was a literal "_" operator).
- Move P6C::Binop (etc) out of IMCC.pm and into their own files,
possibly distribute the code between P6C::Node::* and P6C::IMCC::*.
- Add tests for operator precedence (noticed some problems with bitwise ops).
- Make vector operators (P6C::IMCC::hype.pm) use the standard binary
and unary operator implementations, instead of re-implementing every
one in hype.pm.
