Or maybe more to do with IBM's product offerings.  Anyway I was
probably thinking of C.A.R. Hoare's 1980 Turing award lecture,

  http://www.labouseur.com/projects/codeReckon/papers/The-Emperors-Old-Clothes.pdf

Quote (p.3 of pdf):

    The first principle was security: The principle that every syntac-
    tically incorrect program should be rejected by the compiler and
    that every syntactically correct program should give a result or an
    error message that was predictable and comprehensible in terms of
    the source language program itself.  Thus no core dumps should ever
    be necessary.  It was logically impossible for any source language
    program to cause the computer to run wild, either at compile time or
    at run time.  A consequence of this principle is that every
    occurrence of every subscript of every subscripted variable was on
    every occasion checked at run time against both the upper and the
    lower declared bounds of the array.  Many years later we asked our
    customers whether they wished us to provide an option to switch off
    these checks in the interests of efficiency on production runs.
    Unanimously, they urged us not to--they already knew how frequently
    subscript errors occur on production runs where failure to detect
    them could be disastrous.  I note with fear and horror that even in
    1980 language designers and users have not learned this lesson.  In
    any respectable branch of engineering, failure to observe such
    elementary precautions would have long been against the law.

I have been enjoying this diatribe thread enourmously, and I suspect
that other developers of optimising Forth compilers enjoy it too.

In Forth culture, Forth is known to be dangerous - modify the
return stack at your own risk. There is also some understanding
that return stack manipulation is not that unusual. Hence the
compiler writers are cautious.

Large Forth programs tend to be well layered, e.g. by OOP
layers. Large programs tend to be old. It takes a lot of
time to write a million lines of code. Good large Forth
applications change the notation. The application 
programmers use a language designed for their application
domain. Application programmers then write very simple code
using this language. It's the gurus writing the middle
layers who are dangerous.

We could make VFX more aggressive, but then there would
be more complaints. Unlike C (and especially gcc), users
of Forth tend to know how to contact the compiler writers.
This is a good thing.

Stephen

Eh?  Contacting the writers of GCC is hard?  How could it possibly be
made any easier?

WTF?  That's a direct quote.  Are you denying having said it?

In my language I will not have >R R> R@ etc. --- I will just provide local variables.

The only thing that >R etc. can do, that locals can't do, is work with variable numbers of parameters on the data-stack (usually with a sentinel underneath them) --- but this is pretty rare, and the user can just use linked-lists instead anyway.

My language is going to be a lot simpler than ANS-Forth. I can get rid of all return-stack stuff, including DO loops. I throw away a lot, and only add a few key features --- quotations are the major addition (and I mean quotations that have access to the creator function's local variables, not Bernd's fake quotations that are just syntactic sugar for :NONAME and are totally worthless).

ANS-Forth is a weird combination of over-complexity and lack-of-features. My language will be a lot simpler, which will make the compiler-writer's life easier, and it will have useful features, which will make the application-programmer's life easier.

Even if you're language is totally fictional, it would be more educational
to demonstrate how your language solves some simple problems by example.
It has to beat yourforth with regard to simplicity.
Get on with it already!

[Note that yourforth is meant to be simple for a prospective compiler
writer, not for a user, and I only replace ANSI features if it results
in substantial simplification. ]

I think that implementing structured coding in Forth is a noble attempt.

Unfortunately, as you should know, there are two ways that >R R> R@ are
used in Forth.  The first and most common is to temporarily store a single
data item.  I.e., you may need an extra user variable to allow storage of
temporary data items.  The other is to store and retrieve multiple data
items.  That usage is less common but may be harder to eliminate.  But,
maybe the Forth locals are sufficient for that, or they may just be more
overhead.  I would suspect that locals and at least one temporary would
be more useful than just locals.

You need at least one loop control-flow construct.  If it's an infinite
loop, you'll need a method to escape it, e.g., UNLOOP or EXIT etc.

I'm curious.

Do you compare your current pronouncements to prior pronouncements?  Do you
write these pronouncements down to compare your progress and results to  
them?
Is expressing such ideas to us part of your mental process of visualization
and realization?  Or, are you attempting to build momentum from the group
for your visions of Forth?  Or, are you attempting to prepare us for a  
Forth
you've already written when it is unleashed into the world and overcomes  
it?

In many ways, your pronouncements like Gavino's random thought dumps ...

Perhaps you want them to be worthless so that you will
not have to experience the pain of learning a new paradigm.

You seem to be ignorant of closures.  You need to learn about
the Lisp/Scheme (or ML) family of programming languages.

If you are not experienced in programming Scheme, Lisp, or ML, then
your horizons are very narrow.


Scheme (Racket):


(define (multiply-and-increment inc . lists)
  (apply map
    (lambda numbers (+ inc (apply * numbers)))
    lists))

(multiply-and-increment 500 '(2 4 6 8) '(1 2 3 4) '(-8 5 7 9))
 ===>
'(484 540 626 788)

Perhaps I think they're worthless because I've never had
a need for them in the dozen or so languages I've experienced.
I stated this to Hugh in one of the dozen other threads where
he brought up closures.  Hugh seems to think they will dramatically
improve Forth and keeps attempting to build up Forth community
momentum for them.  The Forth programmers here seem to keep
dismissing this idea of his, and I do too.  However, I keep
giving Hugh a chance to expound on his idea, but he never
accepts the opportunity.

Non-sequitur.

I.e., if a theoretical someone, not me, experienced a thousand
programming languages, none of which were Scheme, Lisp, or ML
like, and none of which had closures, you'd still say that the
huge "horizon" (breadth of experience) of that person was very
narrow, although that would be incorrect.

Um, just what does one make of that crap? ...

Since it's apparent that I'm "ignorant of closures," one could
assume that I can't recognize a closure when I see it.  Yet, even
knowing that I'm "ignorant of closures" and therefore likely can't even
recognize them, you failed or chose to not explain to me where the
closure is in that mess ...  Didn't you just criticize Forth as being
non-readable in a another thread?  Yes, you did.  Was that ironic?
I simply don't see anything I'd recognize or guess was a closure.   Of
course, I have little to no familiarity with Lisp or Scheme or ML.
I do see something that appears to me to call multiply-and-increment
multiple times with different parameters, or somesuch something.  You
also didn't demonstrate why a closure is needed.  If the code can be
written without closures, then they're simply not needed.  That's the
case with most high-level languages.  So, for someone arguing *for*
closures, like Hugh, I truly find this lack of explanation as to the
worth of closures to be unbelievable!  What am I supposed to see here?

It helps just fine; the fact that you do not listen is your problem,
not the inability to contact the maintainers.

No, you get it wrong.  *You* don't listen, you just tell people that they 
are wrong, based on your screwed language lawyer logic.  For example, we try 
tell you that there is a difference between undefined behavior and 
(implementation-)defined behavior.  A compiler *can* optimize away dead code 
when this dead code comes from defined behavior.  if(0) { bla } is fine to 
remove, because if(0) is well-defined.  Actually, it must warn, because dead 
code is a bug, just like unused variables are bugs.

What does happen to an undefined expression by the language is up to you, 
the compiler implementer.  We have an ample of "an ambiguous condition 
exists when bla" in ANS Forth.  The sensible thing to do for a quality 
compiler is to either throw an exception which tells the programmer what 
error condition happened, *or* to extend the behavior of the standard in a 
sensible way.  And if you do that, you gonna stick to that.  The completely 
unreasonable way to deal with it is to let it rain frogs or shout "off with 
your head" (red queen attitude; the "you deserve my bad temper"-attitude).  
I understand that you have bad temper, I would go mad in a week if I had to 
maintain GCC ;-).

For 20 years, GCC defined what happened to integer overflow: it wraps 
around.  The C standard does not define it.  But for the sake of backwards 
compatibility and compatibility between different compilers, you need to 
stick to that.  This is not a decision you can make without user feedback, 
and you get the negative user feedback, but choose to ignore it.  Listen?  
What's "listen"?

The NULL dereferencing is somewhat similar.  The compiler generates code for 
that stuff, and it doesn't know what memory mapping there is.  Therefore, it 
can't know whether the NULL dereferencing is actually casing a segv 
exception.  Therefore, optimizing the check on NULL away is not possible, 
because the compiler can't prove that this code is really unreachable.  The 
rule of thumb is: if you can't prove that your optimization isn't changing 
behavior, don't do it.

The thing is: You get the "undefined" semantics from the C standard wrong, 
and you refuse to listen.  And that's apparently the entire GCC team.  You 
don't listen to the Linux people who got screwed by you, you listen to 
nobody.  How does it help that you can be reached?  You don't listen.  
Stephen Pelc does listen to us, he might be grumpy first about what we tell 
him, and it needs time to convince him, but he does listen.  And in the end, 
when he does fix severe problems, he finds that the solution is more 
elegant, faster, and easier to maintain.  Feedback is a two-way street, it 
makes both sides happy.

How can we tell you that you are misguided if you constantly errect straw 
men like "ask Anton"?  The guidelines I gave you how to set the semantics 
are obvious:  You transform C statements into machine language.  That one 
does have a semantics defined by the machine.  And this is the semantics 
your program actually has when executed.  There, a comparison between x and 
x+1 is *not* undefined when an overflow happens.  An access to a null 
pointer is defined, if the zero page is mapped.

And stop being silly with what a compiler can do on undefined language 
behavior.  Ask yourself what a *good*, high quality, supportive compiler 
would do, a compiler you would trust to compile a billion lines of code 
(which GCC does to compile a Linux distribution); or what your compiler did 
last year (backwards compatibility is a must).  If you can't figure out what 
a good compiler is, *listen* to the users.  So maybe you are all so clueless 
that "ask Anton" is the only way you have, because you can't figure out 
yourself what to do.  Then go ahead, and ask Anton.  Or get a clue.  If the 
latter is not possible, the further always is.  As Stephen found out, 
compiling guru code is the hardest test to a compiler, so take Gforth as 
regression test.

Telling the user that he deservers to be screwed by an adversarial compiler 
is at least Asperger, if not sadistic.  The reputation of GCC as adversarial 
compiler has already spread way beyond me and Anton.  It's starting to rival 
Ulrich Drepper as glibc maintainer, but that's (very fortunately!) a thing 
of the past.  You now, Ulrich Drepper has about exactly the same approach at 
robustness and standard compliance as you do - if the fine print of the 
standard allows you to break code, you are obliged to do so.  Is this a 
RedHat culture problem (Ulrich Drepper worked for RedHat for a long time)?  
When Ulrich resigned from glibc maintenance, the lwn.net readers asked 
"where do we now get our drama?", but apparently, GCC steps in to rescue!

I'm always happy with a fast compiler.  However, what I get from GCC is 
serious performance degradation over the previous version (usually due to 
misguided optimization efforts like trying to do GCSE and flow control 
merging beyond computed gotos) *and* more bugs "for the sake of speed".  
Hey, you can't even keep the speed of the version before, so why do you 
bother with more speed?  And when you have GCC extensions that provide more 
speed (like computed gotos or long longs twice as long as long to access 
widening multiplication), you shouldn't treat them as second-class citizens, 
just because they are not (yet) part of the C standard.

One point for projects like net2o is "can you trust the compiler", because 
if audited source code is miscompiled, you lose.  The current state of GCC 
is that you definitely can't trust it to build Gforth; each minor version 
update requires manual intervention to get it to run again - at least for 
the -fast-ll-reg version.  You can trust the Gforth compiler, because it is 
sufficiently simple, but when you can't trust GCC, then the trust chain is 
broken.

You want a language similar to C but with most undefined behaviour
replaced by either well-defined or system-defined behaviour.  I say
"most" because I think there must be exceptions to this rule, such as
writing into a random address.  I don't know the complete list of
changes to the C standard, but I do know that the work would be
extensive and involve a lot of effort.  It would also involve a lot of
negotiation.

But you do not specify this language.  Instead you post angry comments
directed at people who do not implement this language of yours when
they implement C.

Here's an interesting proposal for integer arithmetic.  It has been
implemented in GCC and Clang and the overhead is not too bad.  It
handles overflow with something like trapv, but says that GCC's trapv
still misses some cases, so it goes a little further.

Yes, please!  Well, I actually don't want a language similar to C, but if it 
must be similar to C for popularity reasons, that's the way to go.

20 years ago I had that.  It was called "GCC".  We decided to use this 
language to implement Gforth after evaluating it and we found that it did 
meet our requirements.  It no longer does.  I'm not interested in "you are 
holding it wrong"-style answers.

You might like Go (www.golang.org).  It's about halfway between C and a
scripting language in terms of "level", so not suited for tiny embedded
stuff, but has nothing like the clunkiness of Java, and you can feel the
bits in your fingers when you need to, like C.  I've been doing some
stuff with it so thought I'd mention it.  It might be a nice alternative
platform for net2o.

Actually, I'm quite happy with Forth.  The problem is that it is difficult 
to ignore the world out there, and you have to interface with C a lot, and 
in Gforth, we made the decision to use GCC as portable assembler (this was 
20 years ago...).  Go has the interfacing problem in a much larger way than 
Gforth, because it actually doesn't interface to C libraries.  There is cgo 
for mixed language projects, though.

Considdering C-like languages, Go is certainly a significant improvement 
over C.
