dot exprs issue:
The way
con
match works is to use a partial match, considering only the formal params after the call identifier. So dot exprs, overloads, etc aren't currently handled correctly. If you want to check out the code seesuggest.suggestCall
which kicks things off, it'll end up usingsigmatch.partialMatch
which leaves the heavy lifting tosigmatch.matchesAux
.sigmatch.matchesAux
doesn't use the operand before the dot as part of the formal parameters. Changing this is tricky because it's used by the proper compilation sem pass and that's a big change all in one go.
