What's "control plane" and "data plane"?
One of the advantages of Forth is that there is not hard line between
compile-time and run-time. You can define new words at any time.
Using a colon defininition for data is perfectly legitimate, but it
implies a number of restrictions (and that's why it is not used that
often):
- Memory management is restricted: You cannot use ALLOCATE/FREE or
similar to deal with individual words.
- If you define your colon definition to print data, that's all it can
do. You cannot use the same colon definition to, e.g., search
through the data. Of course you can use the source code for the
colon definition with a different definition for the called words,
that, say, store the data somewhere, allowing you to either print or
search the data, but that's more complicated then. Or you can use
CREATE instead of defining a colon definition. But the advantage of
a colon definition is that it is more flexible.
