Function Documentation

x_obj_prim_call()

x_obj_t * x_obj_prim_call	(	x_obj_t *	p_base,
		x_obj_t *	p_args
	)

Invoke an object's type-dispatch call handler.

Looks up the call field on the object's type struct and dispatches. For procedure-typed call handlers, invokes via x_type_procedure_call to support closures as type callbacks.

Parameters

p_base	x_obj_t* – Base (execution context)
p_args	x_obj_t* – (callable . args)

Returns

Result of the call, or NULL if no call handler

x_obj_prim_make()

x_obj_t * x_obj_prim_make	(	x_obj_t *	p_base,
		x_obj_t *	p_args
	)

Construct a new object via its type's make callback.

Dispatches to the appropriate constructor based on the object's type (static atom, static pair, or registered type with make handler).

Parameters

p_base	x_obj_t* – Base (execution context)
p_args	x_obj_t* – (prototype-obj flags data...)

Returns

Newly allocated object, or NULL on failure
