grw_derive 0.1.0

# grw_derive

Procedural macros for the [GRW](https://grw.rs) graph rewriting library.

This crate provides two macros used by grw for runtime type introspection and REPL integration. It is not intended to be used directly — it is re-exported through the `grw` crate.

## `#[derive(Val)]`

Derives the `Val` trait on structs and `#[repr(u8)]` enums, providing:

- **Field introspection** — `fields()` returns field names, types, and byte offsets at runtime
- **Layout hash** — deterministic `layout_hash()` for binary compatibility checks (used by `Graph::save`/`load`)
- **Size/alignment** — `size()` and `align()` matching `std::mem`

```rust
use grw::Val;

#[derive(Val)]
struct Particle {
    x: f64,
    y: f64,
    mass: f32,
    active: bool,
}

// runtime field access
let fields = Particle::fields();
assert_eq!(fields[0].name, "x");
assert_eq!(fields.len(), 4);

// layout hash for persistence validation
let hash = Particle::layout_hash();
assert_ne!(hash, 0);
```

Supported field types: `bool`, `i8`–`i64`, `u8`–`u64`, `f32`, `f64`, `String`, nested `Val` structs, `#[repr(u8)]` enums.

### Enums

```rust
#[derive(Val, Clone, Copy)]
#[repr(u8)]
enum Color { Red, Green, Blue }

// variants with discriminants are introspectable
let ft = Color::field_type();
```

## `#[grw::repl]`

Attribute macro for `impl` blocks. Generates `extern "C"` wrappers and method metadata for REPL/JIT integration:

```rust
#[derive(Val)]
struct Point { x: f64, y: f64 }

#[grw::repl]
impl Point {
    fn distance(&self) -> f64 {
        (self.x * self.x + self.y * self.y).sqrt()
    }

    fn new(x: f64, y: f64) -> Self {
        Point { x, y }
    }
}

// methods are discoverable at runtime
let methods = Point::methods();
assert_eq!(methods[0].name, "distance");
assert!(!methods[0].is_static);

assert_eq!(methods[1].name, "new");
assert!(methods[1].is_static);
```

Supports:
- `&self` methods returning scalars (`bool`, `i8`–`i64`, `u8`–`u64`, `f32`, `f64`)
- Static methods (constructors, factories)
- Multi-parameter methods
- `String` return type (metadata only, fn_ptr is null — not callable via FFI)
- `&mut self` methods are silently skipped
