71 /* Procedure-with-setter
72
73 Four representations for procedure-with-setters were
74 considered before selecting this one:
75
76 1. A closure where the CODE and ENV slots are used to represent
77 the getter and a new SETTER slot is used for the setter. The
78 original getter is stored as a `getter' procedure property. For
79 closure getters, the CODE and ENV slots contains a copy of the
80 getter's CODE and ENV slots. For subr getters, the CODE contains
81 a call to the subr.
82
83 2. A compiled closure with a call to the getter in the cclo
84 procedure. The getter and setter are stored in slots 1 and 2.
85
86 3. An entity (i.e. a struct with an associated procedure) with a
87 call to the getter in the entity procedure and the setter stored
88 in slot 0. The original getter is stored in slot 1.
89
90 4. A new primitive procedure type supported in the evaluator. The
91 getter and setter are stored in a GETTER and SETTER slot. A call
92 to this procedure type results in a retrieval of the getter and a
93 jump back to the correct eval dispatcher.
94
95 Representation 4 was selected because of efficiency and
96 simplicity.
97
98 Rep 1 has the advantage that there is zero penalty for closure
99 getters, but primitive getters will get considerable overhead
100 because the procedure-with-getter will be a closure which calls
101 the getter.
102
103 Rep 3 has the advantage that a GOOPS accessor can be a subclass of
104 <procedure-with-setter>, but together with rep 2 it suffers from a
105 three level dispatch for non-GOOPS getters:
106
107 cclo/struct --> dispatch proc --> getter
108
109 This is because the dispatch procedure must take an extra initial
110 argument (cclo for rep 2, struct for rep 3).
111
112 Rep 4 has the single disadvantage that it uses up one tc7 type
113 code, but the plan for uniform vectors will very likely free tc7
114 codes, so this is probably no big problem. Also note that the
115 GETTER and SETTER slots can live directly on the heap, using the
116 new four-word cells. */
