lua/testes/closure.lua, branch v5.5.1

Variable attributes can prefix name list

2025-05-18T14:43:43+00:00

In this format, the attribute applies to all names in the list; e.g. "global print, require, math".

Collective declaration for globals ('global *')

Removed copyright notice from 'testes/all.lua'

2025-03-12T17:00:58+00:00

All test files refer to the main copyright notice in 'lua.h'.

Bug: wrong code gen. for indices with comparisons

2024-08-17T15:47:28+00:00

In function 'luaK_exp2val', used to generate code for indices: Macro 'hasjumps' does not consider the case when the whole expression is a "jump" (a test). In all other of its uses, the surrounding code ensures that the expression cannot be VJMP.

Avoid excessive name pollution in test files

2022-12-28T21:34:11+00:00

Test files are more polite regarding the use of globals when locals would do, and when globals are necessary deleting them after use.

Control variables in for loops are read only

'lua_upvalueid' returns NULL on invalid upvalue index

Removed internal cache for closures

2018-11-01T16:21:00+00:00

The mechanism of "caching the last closure created for a prototype to try to reuse it the next time a closure for that prototype is created" was removed. There are several reasons: - It is hard to find a natural example where this cache has a measurable impact on performance. - Programmers already perceive closure creation as something slow, so they tend to avoid it inside hot paths. (Any case where the cache could reuse a closure can be rewritten predefining the closure in some variable and using that variable.) - The implementation was somewhat complex, due to a bad interaction with the generational collector. (Typically, new closures are new, while prototypes are old. So, the cache breaks the invariant that old objects should not point to new ones.)

Added directory to test file names in '$Id:'

2018-07-25T18:31:04+00:00

From the point of view of 'git', all names are relative to the root directory of the project. So, file names in '$Id:' also should be relative to that directory: the proper name for test file 'all.lua' is 'testes/all.lua'.
