3787 :: changing the order in which checking for functions

• Vantage (orginal) [2018-04-29T15:04:19+02:00] view original

  If you first make a mini-header file then define the functions wouldn't that ensure that you can call a function defined below the another function

  proc foo()=
      bar()
    proc bar()=
      discard 1+1
    foo()
  Run

  the code above would result in an error

  
    cannot find bar()
  Run

  Maybe a preprocessor or some change of ordering of reading the module would be better

  ####### auto generated ####
    proc foo()=
    proc bar()=
    ###########################
    proc foo()=
      bar()
    proc bar()=
      discard 1+1
    foo()
  Run

  This is a suggestion. I don't really expect anyone to implement it but I think it'd be a good addition.
