fix(typecheck): make len/show truly polymorphic schemes (Refs #122)#125
Merged
Conversation
v2.5/v2.6 (merged in #123) bound `len` and `show` via `bind_var` as `'a -> Int` / `'a -> String` using a SINGLE SHARED unification tyvar, not a generalized scheme. The first use pinned it (e.g. `len(name)` => tv:=String), so a later `len(ids)` on `[String]` failed with `Unify TypeMismatch (String, Array[String])`. This blocked any program mixing `len` over strings and arrays — notably the ubicity#30 storage port (diagnosed to root cause via an `sb7` minimal repro). Bind both as generalized schemes via `bind_scheme` (`poly1` helper: fresh tyvar quantified in `sc_tyvars`, instantiated per call site), so `len`/`show` are properly polymorphic. Verified green prior to an environment loss (WSL /tmp wipe): the sb7 repro and the full ubicity storage.affine compiled; the 5 Deno-ESM harnesses and `dune runtest` (214 tests, unchanged — same 2 pre-existing E2E Node-CJS vscode failures) all passed. CI re-verifies the build here. Refs #122 (follow-up to #123; unblocks ubicity#30). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Synthesised class methods are `async` and an associated cross-method
call lowers to `(await this.m(...))`. But the expression-position IIFE
wrappers (block / try / match / let / return) were always plain
`(() => { ... })()` — so a contained `await` produced
`SyntaxError: Unexpected reserved word` (hit by ubicity's
`loadAllExperiences`: a try whose body `await this.ensureDirectories()`).
Add `ctx.in_async` (set while emitting a synthesised `async` method
body) and an `iife` helper: in async context the wrapper is
`(await (async () => { ... })())`, otherwise the plain form. Applied to
gen_block_expr / gen_try / gen_match / ExprLet / ExprReturn /
ExprUnsafe. Free functions, constructors and module top-level stay
non-async (they never emit an awaited associated call).
Verified: affinescript `dune build` clean, `dune runtest` 214 tests /
same 2 pre-existing E2E Node-CJS vscode failures (zero regressions),
5 Deno-ESM harnesses green; the regenerated ubicity src/storage.js now
parses and `deno task test` is **44 passed / 0 failed** (the full suite,
incl. the .test.js variants that import the migrated storage.js via
mapper/privacy/export).
Refs #122 (follow-up to #123/#125; completes the ubicity#30 consumer).
