// Adaptable closures
//
// The framework will not be complete without some form of closures
// support. Closures encapsulate a stack frame where local
// variables are created upon entering a function and destructed
// upon exiting. Closures provide an environment for local
// variables to reside. Closures can hold heterogeneous types.
//
// Phoenix closures are true hardware stack based closures. At the
// very least, closures enable true reentrancy in lambda functions.
// A closure provides access to a function stack frame where local
// variables reside. Modeled after Pascal nested stack frames,
// closures can be nested just like nested functions where code in
// inner closures may access local variables from in-scope outer
// closures (accessing inner scopes from outer scopes is an error
// and will cause a run-time assertion failure).
//
// There are three (3) interacting classes:
//
// 1) closure:
//
// At the point of declaration, a closure does not yet create a
// stack frame nor instantiate any variables. A closure declaration
// declares the types and names[note] of the local variables. The
// closure class is meant to be subclassed. It is the
// responsibility of a closure subclass to supply the names for
// each of the local variable in the closure. Example:
//
// struct my_closure : closure<int, string, double> {
//
// member1 num; // names the 1st (int) local variable
// member2 message; // names the 2nd (string) local variable
// member3 real; // names the 3rd (double) local variable
// };
//
// my_closure clos;
//
// Now that we have a closure 'clos', its local variables can be
// accessed lazily using the dot notation. Each qualified local
// variable can be used just like any primitive actor (see
// primitives.hpp). Examples:
//
// clos.num = 30
// clos.message = arg1
// clos.real = clos.num * 1e6
//
// The examples above are lazily evaluated. As usual, these
// expressions return composite actors that will be evaluated
// through a second function call invocation (see operators.hpp).
// Each of the members (clos.xxx) is an actor. As such, applying
// the operator() will reveal its identity:
//
// clos.num() // will return the current value of clos.num
//
// *** [note] Acknowledgement: Juan Carlos Arevalo-Baeza (JCAB)
// introduced and initilally implemented the closure member names
// that uses the dot notation.
//
// 2) closure_member
//
// The named local variables of closure 'clos' above are actually
// closure members. The closure_member class is an actor and
// conforms to its conceptual interface. member1..memberN are
// predefined typedefs that correspond to each of the listed types
// in the closure template parameters.
//
// 3) closure_frame
//
// When a closure member is finally evaluated, it should refer to
// an actual instance of the variable in the hardware stack.
// Without doing so, the process is not complete and the evaluated
// member will result to an assertion failure. Remember that the
// closure is just a declaration. The local variables that a
// closure refers to must still be instantiated.
//
// The closure_frame class does the actual instantiation of the
// local variables and links these variables with the closure and
// all its members. There can be multiple instances of
// closure_frames typically situated in the stack inside a
// function. Each closure_frame instance initiates a stack frame
// with a new set of closure local variables. Example:
//
// void foo()
// {
// closure_frame<my_closure> frame(clos);
// /* do something */
// }
//
// where 'clos' is an instance of our closure 'my_closure' above.
// Take note that the usage above precludes locally declared
// classes. If my_closure is a locally declared type, we can still
// use its self_type as a paramater to closure_frame:
//
// closure_frame<my_closure::self_type> frame(clos);
//
// Upon instantiation, the closure_frame links the local variables
// to the closure. The previous link to another closure_frame
// instance created before is saved. Upon destruction, the
// closure_frame unlinks itself from the closure and relinks the
// preceding closure_frame prior to this instance.
//
// The local variables in the closure 'clos' above is default
// constructed in the stack inside function 'foo'. Once 'foo' is
// exited, all of these local variables are destructed. In some
// cases, default construction is not desirable and we need to
// initialize the local closure variables with some values. This
// can be done by passing in the initializers in a compatible
// tuple. A compatible tuple is one with the same number of
// elements as the destination and where each element from the
// destination can be constructed from each corresponding element
// in the source. Example:
//
// tuple<int, char const*, int> init(123, "Hello", 1000);
// closure_frame<my_closure> frame(clos, init);
//
// Here now, our closure_frame's variables are initialized with
// int: 123, char const*: "Hello" and int: 1000.
