This finally uses `parse` all the way up to aggregation into the ASG, as can be seen by the mess in `poc`. This will be further simplified---I just need to get this committed so that I can mentally get it off my plate. I've been separating this commit into smaller commits, but there's a point where it's just not worth the effort anymore. I don't like making large changes such as this one. There is still work to do here. First, it's worth re-mentioning that `poc` means "proof-of-concept", and represents things that still need a proper home/abstraction. Secondly, `poc` is retrieving the context of two parsers---`LowerContext` and `Asg`. The latter is desirable, since it's the final aggregation point, but the former needs to be eliminated; in particular, packages need to be worked into the ASG so that `found` can be removed. Recursively loading `xmlo` files still happens in `poc`, but the compiler will need this as well. Once packages are on the ASG, along with their state, that responsibility can be generalized as well. That will then simplify lowering even further, to the point where hopefully everything has the same shape (once final aggregation has an abstraction), after which we can then create a final abstraction to concisely stitch everything together. Right now, Rust isn't able to infer `S` for `Lower<S, LS>`, which is unfortunate, but we'll be able to help it along with a more explicit abstraction. DEV-11864 |

TAME in Rust (TAMER)
TAME was written to help tame the complexity of developing comparative insurance rating systems. This project aims to tame the complexity and performance issues of TAME itself. TAMER is therefore more tame than TAME.
TAME was originally written in XSLT. For more information about the
project, see the parent README.md.
Building
To bootstrap from the source repository, run ./bootstrap.
To configure the build for your system, run ./configure. To build, run
make. To run tests, run make check.
You may also invoke cargo directly, which make will do for you using
options provided to configure.
Note that the default development build results in terrible runtime performance! See [#Build Flags][] below for instructions on how to generate a release binary.
Build Flags
The environment variable CARGO_BUILD_FLAGS can be used to provide
additional arguments to cargo build when invoked via make. This can be
provided optionally during configure and can be overridden when invoking
make. For example:
# release build
$ ./configure && make CARGO_BUILD_FLAGS=--release
$ ./configure CARGO_BUILD_FLAGS=--release && make
# dev build
$ ./configure && make
$ ./configure CARGO_BUILD_FLAGS=--release && make CARGO_BUILD_FLAGS=
Hacking
This section contains advice for those developing TAMER.
Running Tests
Developers should be using test-driven development (TDD). make check will
run all necessary tests.
Code Format
Rust provides rustfmt that can automatically format code for you. This
project mandates its use and therefore eliminates personal preference in
code style (for better or worse).
Formatting checks are run during make check and, on failure, will output
the diff that would be applied if you ran make fmt (or make fix); this
will run cargo fmt for you (and will use the binaries configured via
configure).
Since developers should be doing test-driven development (TDD) and therefore
should be running make check frequently, the hope is that frequent
feedback on formatting issues will allow developers to quickly adjust their
habits to avoid triggering formatting errors at all.
If you want to automatically fix formatting errors and then run tests:
$ make fmt check
Benchmarking
Benchmarks serve two purposes: external integration tests (which are subject
to module visibility constraints) and actual benchmarking. To run
benchmarks, invoke make bench.
Note that link-time optimizations (LTO) are performed on the binary for benchmarking so that its performance reflects release builds that will be used in production.
The configure script will automatically detect whether the test feature
is unstable (as it was as of the time of writing) and, if so, will
automatically fall back to invoking nightly (by running cargo +nightly bench).
If you do not have nightly, run you install it via rustup install nightly.
