#38Implement inlining for small functions

• ~lino-levancommented · 2 years ago

  Repro:

  fn x() {
    let print = @js("console").log;
    print("Hello, World!");
  }
  
  x();
  

  Result:

  // Language Compiler v0.1.3. Alpha quality software.
  let x = () => {
  console.log("Hello, World!");
  return undefined;
  };
  x();
  

  Should be:

  // Language Compiler v0.1.3. Alpha quality software.
  console.log("Hello, World!");
  

  ---

  Milestone: later.

  I think there's a few times where you want to inline a function:

  • If it's only ever used once, inline it.
  • If it's used a few times and it's short, inline it
  • If it's really short (1-2 lines maybe), always inline it
