class ClassCompilationInfo

nitc :: ClassCompilationInfo

Encapsulates every information needed to compile a class.

The compilation of a class is done by several methods, two of those are mandatory :

  • compile_class_to_c : starts the compilation process
  • compile_class_vft : generate the virtual function table And one of them is optional :
  • compile_class_if_universal : compiles the rest of the class if its a universal type. Universal type are handle in a case-basis, this is why they need special treatment. Generally, universal class will have special structure and a custom allocator.

Throughout each step of the class compilation process, some information must be share. This class encapsulates the compilation process state. (except vft), eg
