Class: KipperTargetBuiltInGenerator
compiler.KipperTargetBuiltInGenerator
Generator for the Kipper built-ins that are specific for a target.
This class must be specified when using a KipperCompileTarget and is used to generate the required built-in functions that can be called during runtime in the target language.
The functions in this class are automatically called by generateRequirements when used inside a KipperProgramContext, so there is no need to call it yourself.

Methods
__name__
▸ Abstract name(varSpec, programCtx): Promise<TranslatedCodeLine[]>
Built-in variable 'name' that provides the name of the current file being run.
Since
0.10.0
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
varSpec |
BuiltInVariable |
The specification for the variable. This contains the overall metadata for the variable that should be followed. This is auto-inserted by the code-generator in KipperProgramContext. |
programCtx |
KipperProgramContext |
The program context of the environment that is being compiled. |
Returns
Defined in
kipper/core/src/compiler/target-presets/translation/built-ins-generator.ts:144
boolToNum
▸ Abstract boolToNum(func, programCtx): Promise<TranslatedCodeLine[]>
Conversion function which provides 'bool' to 'num' type conversion functionality.
Since
0.10.0
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
func |
InternalFunction |
The specification for the function. This contains the overall metadata for the function that should be followed. This is auto-inserted by the code-generator in KipperProgramContext. |
programCtx |
KipperProgramContext |
The program context of the environment that is being compiled. |
Returns
Defined in
kipper/core/src/compiler/target-presets/translation/built-ins-generator.ts:82
boolToStr
▸ Abstract boolToStr(func, programCtx): Promise<TranslatedCodeLine[]>
Conversion function which provides 'bool' to 'str' type conversion functionality.
Since
0.10.0
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
func |
InternalFunction |
The specification for the function. This contains the overall metadata for the function that should be followed. This is auto-inserted by the code-generator in KipperProgramContext. |
programCtx |
KipperProgramContext |
The program context of the environment that is being compiled. |
Returns

kipper/core/src/compiler/target-presets/translation/built-ins-generator.ts:37
index
▸ Abstract index(funcSpec, programCtx): Promise<TranslatedCodeLine[]>
Index function which provides the ability to index an iterable object-like type.
This is used to get a specific index from an iterable object-like type, such as a string or array. Though unlike in JavaScript this will assert that the index is within the bounds of the iterable object-like type. Otherwise, an error will be thrown.
