Accumulators were an ancient TAME feature removed long ago during The Great
Refactoring (...okay, that part didn't fit the definition of a "refactor",
but that's technically what that's referring to).
TAMER will not accept it.
DEV-7145
This has been optional for many years and is not actually used by the
current compiler. TAMER can infer it, in situations where it actually
matters in the future.
So, rather than adding support for this in the new parser, let's clean up.
DEV-7145
RSG (Ryan Specialty Group) recently announced a rename to Ryan Specialty (no
"Group"), but I'm not sure if the legal name has been changed yet or not, so
I'll wait on that.
TAMER rejects this, because we shouldn't be using anything but UTF-8. My
use of this encoding is ancient, from over a decade ago, that was apparently
just copied around.
DEV-10936
This now uses year ranges, which I'll update annually.
This also renames "R-T Specialty" to "Ryan Specialty Group". The latter is
the parent company of the former. I was originally employed under the
former when LoVullo Associates was purchased, by I now work for the parent
company.
Some notes on this: The "Calc DSL" is the name of the DSL before it
became "TAME". This takes the entire core library and squashes its 91
commits into a single one; the reason for this is because those
commits often contain LoVullo-specific details that are either
irrelevant or should not be included.
This library has limited value to the public at the time of this
commit, since TAME has not yet been released (it requires some
additional cleanup and filtering before then). It is also in need of
heavy refactoring and reorganization, since it has accumulated a lot
of cruft, especially since the project in which the Calc DSL was
introduced was rushed (to put it lightly). Forgive the mess.
[LoVullo employees: the commit was extracted from dsl.git 4a3aea9;
full history can be found there. This commit contains some additional
minor tweaks in addition to squashing. It filters on the :/core/
directory.]
