Description
Problem or feature statement
There is demand for the introduction of a "compilation" phase for Larky. The following two features are the most requested:
- Compilation of a Larky script to check for syntax errors without executing it.
- Compilation of a Larky script for later invocation without re-interpreting it.
Advised solution
Ideally leverage the JVM's invokedynamic instruction to have fast dynamic dispatching via JVM bytecode. Or, introduce a Dalvik-like register-based VM built on top of the JVM.
Testing scenarios
TBD
