...has anyone noticed this?
VP seems to group passed-in / returned values by type and in type order when
compiling and calling.
Thus:
qcall tool, (i0, p3, d0, i1, l0 : -)
actually becomes:
qcall tool, (p3, i0, i1, l0, d0 : -)
Additionally, each type will only map to args of that type.
For instance:
func:
ent p0 : p0-p3, i0-i4
cpy 17, i0
ret
...
gos func, (NULL:i5)
will put the value 17 into i5.
This is good sometimes, but bad when you've put a variable
into the wrong def statement... (:
Just some interesting behavior to be aware of....
