Missing and Undefined Macros Args Raise No Errors
Huff version: huffc 0.3.2 (nightly: 813b6b683dd214dfca71d49284afd885dd9eef09)
Reproducing
Example 1
#define macro LE_MACRO(a) = takes(0) returns(2) {
<a> dup1
}
#define macro MAIN() = takes(0) returns(0) {
LE_MACRO()
}
Output (huffc -r ./test-empty.huff): 80 (Equivalent to compiling just dup1)
Expected Output: Compiler Error indicating that LE_MACRO is missing it's parameter a at the specific line in MAIN
Example 2
#define macro LE_MACRO() = takes(0) returns(2) {
<b> pop
}
#define macro MAIN() = takes(0) returns(0) {
LE_MACRO()
}
Output (huffc -r ./test-empty.huff): 50 (Equivalent to compiling just pop)
Expected Output: Compiler Error indicating that the referenced macro parameter <b> in LE_MACRO is undefined
Description
If a macro parameter is missing / undefined the current compiler will simply skip it, potentially resulting in invalid bytecode. This particularly becomes an issue when you're e.g. refactoring larger files where it may be hard to notice whether or not you forgot to add a certain parameter. Furthermore, I can imagine few situations where you'd want macro arguments to be optional as they'll modify the stack and meaning of subsequent instructions.
