| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a dependency cycle here: - draw-grapheme (Mu) uses read-grapheme (Mu) to be unicode-aware. - read-grapheme uses read-byte (SubX). Streams are a fundamental data structure in Mu. For the Mu compiler to be able to reason about the safety of stream operations, they need to be an opaque type. All stream primitives are written in SubX. To manipulate a stream's internals we force people to reach for SubX. That way if there's no SubX code there's confidence that things are safe. - read-byte and other stream operations have unit tests, like they should. The unit tests need to print data to screen when say a test fails. To do this they use various check- functions (SubX) that take a string argument. - Printing a string to screen uses draw-grapheme (Mu). Perhaps I should maintain variants of drawing primitives that operate only on ASCII.
* 7522 - bring back a few tests in .subx filesKartik Agaram2021-01-151-3/+89
| | | | | | | | Even though baremetal has tests in SubX, they can only run in Mu programs since the test harness is currently in a Mu layer. Baremetal isn't really intended for running SubX programs at the moment. Is this a step down the slippery slope towards C compilers that I complained about in http://akkartik.name/akkartik-convivial-20200607.pdf?

Port some support for unicode to baremetal.
