They support fields, methods (instance and static), and a unique scoping model. - -### Declaration - -Structs are declared using the `struct` keyword. Fields are declared with `name: type`. Methods are declared with `func`. By default, fields and methods are **private**. Use the `pub` keyword to make them accessible from outside the struct. +Struct declaration: ```rey struct Player { health: int, name: String, - // Static method (returns the struct type) pub func create(n: String, h: int): Player { return Player { name: n, health: h }; } - // Instance method - // Note: fields are accessed directly by name! pub func takeDamage(amount: int): Void { health -= amount; - println("{name} took {amount} damage. HP: {health}"); } } ``` -### Construction - -Structs are instantiated using a literal syntax `StructName { field: value, ... }`. +Struct literal: ```rey var p = Player { name: "Hero", health: 100 }; ``` -### Methods & Scoping +Implemented method behavior: +- Instance method calls inject fields into method scope by field name. +- Mutated field names are written back to the instance. +- Static calls are parsed as `StructName.method(...)`. +- In current parser behavior, methods named `create` that are `pub` and return the struct type are treated as static. -- **Instance Methods**: When a method is called on an instance (`p.takeDamage(10)`), the struct's fields are injected into the method's local scope. You access them directly by their name (e.g., `health`). Any mutations to these variables are written back to the instance after the method finishes. -- **Static Methods**: Methods that return the struct type and are marked `pub` can be called directly on the struct name (e.g., `Player.create("Hero", 100)`). -- **Visibility**: Only `pub` fields and methods can be accessed via dot notation from outside. +## Enums and Match +Enum declaration: ```rey -var p = Player.create("Hero", 100); -p.takeDamage(20); -println(p.health); // Accessing pub field +enum Direction { + North, + South, + East, + West +} ``` -### Reserved Keywords +Match: -The following keywords are reserved for future features: - -- `try` -- `catch` - -Note: `enum` and `match` were previously reserved and are now fully implemented. ---- - -## Error Diagnostics - -Rey leverages visually stunning Rust/Miette-like compiler diagnostics!
