A possible vision for macros in Swift

A Possible Vision for Macros in Swift

As Swift evolves, it gains new language features and capabilities. There are different categories of features: some fill in gaps, taking existing syntax that is not permitted and giving it a semantics that fit well with the existing language, with features like conditional conformance or allowing existential values for protocols with Self or associated type requirements. Others introduce new capabilities or paradigms to the language, such as the addition of concurrency or comprehensive reflection.

There is another large category of language features that provide syntactic sugar to eliminate common boilerplate, taking something that can be written out in long-form and making it more concise. Such features don't technically add any expressive power to the language, because you can always write the long-form version, but their effect can be transformational if it enables use cases that would otherwise have been unwieldy. The synthesis of Codable conformances, for ex

Async/Await - The challenges besides syntax - Cancellation

Async/Await - The challenges besides syntax - Cancellation

This is the second article in a series of articles around Rusts new async/await feature. The first article about interfaces can be found here.

In this part of the series we want to a look at a mechanism which behaves very different in Rust than in all other languages which feature async/await support. This mechanism is Cancellation.

Software Transactional Memory in C++: Pure Functional Approach (tutorial)

Software Transactional Memory in C++: pure functional approach (Tutorial)

In this article I’ll tell you about my pure functional library for Software Transactional Memory (STM) that I’ve built in C++. I adopted some advanced functional programming concepts that make it composable and convenient to use. Its implementation is rather small and robust, which differentiates the library from competitors. Let’s discuss what STM is and how to use it.
