Purpose

The purpose of the repository is to mimick the general structure of the typer part of Merlin code to design, document and discuss several optimization i

  • using a background domain that performs the typing computation;
  • partial typing
  • request cancellation mechanism

TODO

  • proper tests !
  • better typer simulation
  • Improve README

Design Explanation

The role of each domain

  • one domain (called main domain) is handling the server's requests, which includes doing the analysis before answering

  • one domain (caller typer domain) is computing the 'pipeline'

Sharing data

TODO

Partial typing

The idea is that for some requests it mays be enough to only do a partial typing of the buffer, until the next top level definition of the current buffer for example. To do so, the

The typer domain can return a partial result to the main domain and keep typing the buffer until the end of it or cancellation.
