Struct FunctionObject 

pub struct FunctionObject {
    pub id: FunctionId,
    pub symbol: Symbol,
    pub cases: Vec<FunctionCase>,
}

A callable function object: a named set of shape-typed overload cases with selection driven by case priority and argument match score.

Fields

id: FunctionId

Stable function identifier.

symbol: Symbol

Symbol naming the function.

cases: Vec<FunctionCase>

Overload cases in registration order.

Implementations

impl FunctionObject

pub fn new(id: FunctionId, symbol: Symbol, cases: Vec<FunctionCase>) -> Self

Build a function object from an id, symbol, and its overload cases.

pub fn select_case<'a>( &'a self, cx: &mut Cx, prepared: &PreparedArgs, ) -> Result<SelectedCase<'a>>

Pick the overload case that best matches the prepared arguments.

Cases whose argument shape accepts the arguments are ordered by priority first, then by proven argument-shape specificity (the subshape lattice), and only then by additive match score: a case whose argument shape is a proven subshape of another’s is strictly more specific and wins even at an equal or lower score. Returns Error::NoMatchingOverload when nothing matches and Error::AmbiguousOverload when two top cases remain unordered (equal priority, neither shape subsumes the other, and equal score).

pub fn combined_args_shape(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn Shape>>

Shape accepting any case’s arguments: the lone case’s shape, or a one-of over every case. None when the function has no cases.

pub fn combined_result_shape(&self) -> Option<Arc<dyn Shape>>

Shape covering every case’s result, or None if any case omits a result shape. A single result is returned directly; many become a one-of.

pub fn declared_demand(&self, index: usize) -> Option<Demand>

Evaluation demand declared for argument index across all cases.

Returns the shared demand when every case agrees, Demand::Value when they disagree, and None when no case declares that position.

pub fn declared_demands(&self) -> Vec<Demand>

Per-position demands for the call, sized to the widest case and defaulting unspecified positions to Demand::Value.

Trait Implementations

impl Callable for FunctionObject

fn browse_args_shape(&self, _cx: &mut Cx) -> Result<Option<ShapeRef>>

Optional shape describing the accepted argument list, for browsing.

fn browse_result_shape(&self, _cx: &mut Cx) -> Result<Option<ShapeRef>>
