Module functions

Expand description

Function authoring helpers built on the shared Shape engine: overload cases, native function objects, and member-table construction.

Structs§

FunctionCase: One overload case of a FunctionObject: a shape-typed signature paired with the native code that runs when it is selected.
FunctionObject: A callable function object: a named set of shape-typed overload cases with selection driven by case priority and argument match score.
SelectedCase: The case chosen by overload selection together with its match result.

case_result_shape: Borrow the result shape of a case, if it declares one.
case_shape: Borrow the argument shape of a single case.
empty_member_table: Builds an empty member table for classes that expose no members.
empty_shape_ref: Returns a nil shape reference, used where a function has no declared shape.
function_case_result_shape: Returns the result shape of a function overload case, if it declares one.
function_case_shape: Returns the argument shape of a function overload case.
function_cases: Borrow the overload cases of a function object.
overload: Merge several functions into one whose cases are the union of theirs.
