We assume meta-programming is less used in embedded environments.
We have moved following methods:
* Kernel module
global_variables, local_variables, singleton_class,
instance_variables, instance_variables_defined?, instance_variable_get,
instance_variable_set, methods, private_methods, public_methods,
protected_methods, singleton_methods, define_singleton_methods
* Module class
class_variables, class_variables_defined?, class_variable_get,
class_variable_set, remove_class_variable, included_modules,
instance_methods, remove_method, method_removed, constants
* Module class methods
constants, nesting
Note:
Following meta-programming methods are kept in the core:
* Module class
alias_method, undef_method, ancestors, const_defined?, const_get,
const_set, remove_const, method_defined?, define_method
* Toplevel object
define_method
`mruby-metaprog` gem is linked by default (specified in default.gembox).
When it is removed, it will save 40KB (stripped:8KB) on x86-64
environment last time I measured.
Inline structures have no instance variables, no finalizer, and offer as much space as possible in RBASIC object. This means 24 bytes on 64-bit platforms and 12 bytes on 32-bit platforms.
mruby-inline-struct gem is only provided for testing.
_snprintf is not C99's snprintf!
This simple implementation, unlike _snprintf,
always null-terminates and returns the expected
return value (in most cases).
Other C99 behaviors (like format specifiers) require
adding a complete snprintf implementation.
Do we want or need that?
The same applies to vsnprintf (aka _vsnprintf).
mrb_data_object_alloc: unnecessary cast
mrb_lastline_get: mruby doesn't support $_, weird and unused code
mrb_exec_recursive: see 4e46abb869
mrb_block_proc: unused, doesn't really do anything (or needs to be
rewritten)
mrb_obj_to_sym: actually use id (and MSVC detected unreachable code)
- reduce compile time by a little bit (full-core: ~0.7s for me)
- thanks to 'include-what-you-use' for some help
- include Standard C header files before any other (coding style)
