Refactor towards nanopass style chaining

Open pliniker opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

See discussion on https://github.com/rust-hosted-langs/runtimes-WG/issues/11 regarding the nanopass concept.

In my opinion this is a very relevant idea for this book, given that half the purpose is to provide a baseline for others to build on (in addition, of course, to making it easier to implement LSP or analytics.)

  • How should the interpreter code be refactored to move toward the nanopass concept? Separate crates for parsing and compiling?
  • What should the interface look like between passes? What types?
