;;; match.ss

;;; This program was originally designed and implemented by Dan
;;; Friedman.  It was redesigned and implemented by Erik Hilsdale;
;;; some improvements were suggested by Steve Ganz.  Additional
;;; modifications were made by Kent Dybvig.

;; (Nov 2007)
;; Aziz Ghuloum added it to ikarus.

;; (Apr 2007)
;; Aziz Ghuloum ported it to r6rs.

;; (13 March 2002)
;; rkd added following change by Friedman and Ganz to the main source
;; code thread and fixed a couple of minor problems.

;; (9 March 2002)
;; Dan Friedman and Steve Ganz added the ability to use identical pattern
;; variables.  The patterns represented by the variables are compared
;; using the value of the parameter match-equality-test, which defaults
;; to equal?.
;;
;; > (match '(1 2 1 2 1)
;;     ((,a ,b ,a ,b ,a) (guard (number? a) (number? b)) (+ a b)))
;; 3
;; ;;
;; > (match '((1 2 3) 5 (1 2 3))
;;     (((,a ...) ,b (,a ...)) `(,a ... ,b)))
;; (1 2 3 5)
;; ;;
;; > (parameterize ((match-equality-test (lambda (x y) (equal? x (reverse y)))))
;;     (match '((1 2 3) (3 2 1))   
;;       ((,a ,a) 'yes)
;;       (,oops 'no)))
;; yes

;; (10 Jan 2002)
;; eh fixed bug that caused (match '((1 2 3 4)) (((,a ... ,d) . ,x) a)) to
;; blow up.  The bug was caused by a bug in the sexp-dispatch procedure
;; where a base value empty list was passed to an accumulator from inside
;; the recursion, instead of passing the old value of the accumulator.

;; (14 Jan 2001)
;; rkd added syntax checks to unquote pattern parsing to weed out invalid
;; patterns like ,#(a) and ,((vector-ref d 1)).

;; (14 Jan 2001)
;; rkd added ,(Cata -> Id* ...) to allow specification of recursion
;; function.  ,(Id* ...) recurs to match; ,(Cata -> Id* ...) recurs
;; to Cata.

;; (14 Jan 2001)
;; rkd tightened up checks for ellipses and nested quasiquote; was comparing
;; symbolic names, which, as had been noted in the source, is a possible
;; hygiene bug.  Replaced error call in guard-body with syntax-error to
;; allow error to include source line/character information.

;; (13 Jan 2001)
;; rkd fixed match patterns of the form (stuff* ,(x) ... stuff+), which
;; had been recurring on subforms of each item rather than on the items
;; themselves.

;; CHANGELOG (most recent changes are logged at the top of this file)

;; (29 Feb 2000)
;; Fixed a case sensitivity bug.

;; (24 Feb 2000)
;; Matcher now handles vector patterns.  Quasiquote also handles
;; vector patterns, but does NOT do the csv6.2 optimization of
;; `#(a 1 ,(+ 3 4) x y) ==> (vector 'a 1 (+ 3 4) 'x 'y).
;; Also fixed bug in (P ... . P) matching code. 

;; (23 Feb 2000)
;; KSM fixed bug in unquote-splicing inside quasiquote.

;; (10 Feb 2000)
;; New forms match+ and trace-match+ thread arguments right-to-left.
;; The pattern (P ... . P) now works the way you might expect.
;; Infinite lists are now properly matched (and not matched).
;; Removed the @ pattern.
;; Internal: No longer converting into syntax-case. 

;; (6 Feb 2000)
;; Added expansion-time error message for referring to cata variable
;; in a guard.

;; (4 Feb 2000)
;; Fixed backquote so it can handle nested backquote (oops).
;; Double-backquoted elipses are neutralized just as double-backquoted
;; unquotes are.  So:
;;   `(a ,'(1 2 3) ... b)    =eval=> (a 1 2 3 b)
;;   ``(a ,'(1 2 3) ... b)   =eval=> `(a ,'(1 2 3) ... b)
;;   ``(a ,(,(1 2 3) ...) b) =eval=> `(a ,(1 2 3) b)
;; Added support for
;;   `((unquote-splicing x y z) b) =expand==> (append x y z (list 'b))

;; (1 Feb 2000)
;; Fixed a bug involving forgetting to quote stuff in the revised backquote.
;; Recognized unquote-splicing and signalled errors in the appropriate places.
;; Added support for deep elipses in backquote.
;; Rewrote backquote so it does the rebuilding directly instead of
;; expanding into Chez's backquote. 

;; (31 Jan 2000)
;; Kent Dybvig fixed template bug.

;; (31 Jan 2000)
;; Added the trace-match form, and made guards contain
;; an explicit and expression:
;;    (guard E ...) ==> (guard (and E ...))

;; (26 Jan 2000)
;; Inside the clauses of match expressions, the following
;; transformation is performed inside backquote expressions:
;;    ,v ...      ==> ,@v
;;    (,v ,w) ... ==> ,@(map list v w)
;;    etc.
