I have some knowledge of metaprogramming from my last package. Now, I need to descend into madness, to figure out how the compiler works and how I can access and modify the working of each stage in the pipeline. Implementing a performant attribute system in a moddable game requires taking some opti…

So, off the bat, I rather doubt that messing with the compiler internals is a good fit for what you’re describing here, e.g. your example of [image] Tarny_GG_Channie: For example, if there is a union of 5 types, the Julia compiler might resolve to ANY and let the runtime do the work is much …
