This is generic over the source, just as the target, defaulting just the same to `ObjectIndex`. This allows us to use only the edge information provided rather than having to perform another lookup on the graph and then assert that we found the correct edge. In this case, we're dealing with an `Ident->Expr` edge, of which there is only one, but in other cases, there may be many such edges, and it wouldn't be possible to know _which_ was referred to without also keeping context of the previous edge in the walk. So, in addition to avoiding more indirection and being more immune to logic bugs, this also allows us to avoid states in `AsgTreeToXirf` for the purpose of tracking previous edges in the current path. And it means that the tree walk can seed further traversals in conjunction with it, if that is so needed for deriving sources. More cleanup will be needed, but this does well to set us up for moving forward; I was too uncomfortable with having to do the separate lookup. This is also a more intuitive API. But it does have the awkward effect that now I don't need the pair---I just need the `Object`---but I'm not going to remove it because I suspect I may need it in the future. We'll see. The TODO references the fact that I'm using a convenient `resolve_oi_pairs` instead of resolving only the target first and then the source only in the code path that needs it. I'll want to verify that Rust will properly optimize to avoid the source resolution in branches that do not need it. DEV-13708 |

TAME
TAME is The Algebraic Metalanguage, a programming language and system of tools designed to aid in the development, understanding, and maintenance of systems performing numerous calculations on a complex graph of dependencies, conditions, and a large number of inputs.
This system was developed at Ryan Specialty Group (formerly LoVullo Associates) to handle the complexity of comparative insurance rating systems. It is a domain-specific language (DSL) that itself encourages, through the use of templates, the creation of sub-DSLs. TAME itself is at heart a calculator—processing only numerical input and output—driven by quantifiers as predicates. Calculations and quantifiers are written declaratively without concern for order of execution.
The system has powerful dependency resolution and data flow capabilities.
TAME consists of a macro processor (implementing a metalanguage), numerous compilers for various targets (JavaScript, HTML documentation and debugging environment, LaTeX, and others), linkers, and supporting tools. The input grammar is XML, and the majority of the project (including the macro processor, compilers, and linkers) is written in a combination of XSLT and Rust.
TAMER
Due to performance requirements, this project is currently being reimplemented in Rust. That project can be found in the tamer/ directory.
Documentation
Compiled documentation for the latest release is available via our GitLab mirror, which uses the same build pipeline as we do on our internal GitLab instance. Available formats are:
Getting Started
To get started, make sure Saxon version 9 or later is available and its path
set as SAXON_CP; that the path to hoxsl is set via HOXSL; and then run
the bootstrap script:
$ export SAXON_CP=/path/to/saxon9he.jar
$ export HOXSL=/path/to/hoxsl/root
$ ./boostrap
Running Test Cases
To run the test cases, invoke make check (or its alias, make test).
Testing Core Features
In order to run tests located at core/test/core/**, a supporting environment
is required. (e.g. mega rater). Inside a supporting rater, either check out a
submodule containing the core tests, or temporarily add them into the
submodule.
Build the core test suite summary page using:
$ make rater/core/test/core/suite.html
Visit the summary page in a web browser and click the Calculate Premium button. If all test cases pass, it will yield a value of $1.
Hacking
Information for TAME developers can be found in the file HACKING.
