Harbour's inline-method sugar was parsed but the body was skipped,
leaving any `METHOD X() INLINE expr` declaration registered in the
class vtable with no matching HB_<CLASS>_X function — link error
at build time.
Parser: MethodDecl gains an InlineBody Expr field. parseClassMethodDecl
captures the expression after INLINE instead of skipping to EOL.
New parseMessageDecl handles `MESSAGE <name> [(params)] INLINE expr`
and returns the same MethodDecl shape.
Codegen: emitClassDecl walks members a second time after the class
registration init block and emits emitInlineMethodBody for each
IsInline method — a Frame(nParams, 0) + emitExpr(InlineBody) +
RetValue function. curMethodClass is bound so ::super: inside an
inline body still resolves.
Tested (/tmp/test_inline.prg): all four patterns — bare INLINE,
MESSAGE INLINE, INLINE with params, INLINE reading ::field —
produce expected values.

Harbour's ::super: idiom routes a method call through the parent of
the class that defines the currently-executing method — Self stays
the child instance, only the vtable entry point shifts. Five
previously parsed ::super as a data-field access (PushSelfField("SUPER"))
which returned nil and panicked on the subsequent Send.
Runtime: Thread.SendSuper(fromClassName, methodName, nArgs).
Binding to the *defining* class (not Self's runtime class) is
load-bearing for 3+ level hierarchies: without it,
Grand:New → ::super:New → Child:New → ::super:New
would resolve to Grand.Parent=Child again and infinite-loop.
Gengo: Generator.curMethodClass tracks the class name across each
method body emission. emitSendExpr detects the nested SendExpr
shape `::super:X(...)` and emits SendSuper with curMethodClass as
the first argument.
Tested (/tmp/test_super, /tmp/test_super2):
Parent → Child: ::super:Greet() returns composed result
Base → Child → Grand: ::super:New chain passes args correctly
Also fixes three gengo unit tests whose expected output was stale
from prior perf commits (b829ed4 const prop, 1f63c7f symbol hoist,
7e4079f string-concat reassoc) — assertions now match the current
optimized codegen.

When collectConstLocals proves a LOCAL is only ever read, not
written beyond its literal init, every read site gets the literal
substituted inline — which means the init itself has no live
reader. Skip emitting the PushXxx/PopLocalFast pair for those
LOCALs in both top-of-function and mid-body decls.
On a function with `LOCAL nBuf := 100, sTag := "x", bFlag := .T.`,
all three inits drop out (6 VM ops saved in the prologue), while
the still-written `LOCAL nSum := 0` init stays. Harbour compat

Scan each function body for LOCALs whose sole write is a literal
initialiser (never ++/-- / += / @byref / MultiAssign target /
FOR var / @GET target / macro). Reads substitute the literal
inline at emit time, which cascades into all earlier folds: dead
IF branches, AND/OR short-circuit, NOT, string-concat reassoc,
and the FOR LocalLessEqualInt fast path (extended to see through
a propagated ident limit).
Walker is bounded — unrecognised AST nodes abort propagation for
the whole function rather than risk missing a hidden write.

`"a" + x + "b" + "c" + "d"` used to emit 4 Plus() calls because
the parser builds a left-leaning chain and no pair was
literal+literal. Add a reassociation step inside foldLiteralTree:
when the outer shape is `(Y + strlit1) + strlit2`, rewrite as
`Y + (strlit1+strlit2)` so the tail literals collapse. Also run
foldLiteralTree on the root BinaryExpr in emitExpr so the
outermost reassoc fires (was only running on children).
Verified: the 4-Plus case now emits 2 Plus calls (`"a" + x + "bcd"`).

DO WHILE .T. now emits a bare for-loop with no PushBool/PopLogical

`.NOT. .T.` / `.NOT. .F.` emit PushBool directly instead of
pushing the source bool and calling Not(). boolLiteralValue also
sees through an outer NOT, so `IF !.F.` now triggers the full
dead-branch pass (no PopLogical wrapper either).

Skip the PushBool/PopLogical/branch wrapper when the LHS of .AND. /
.OR. is a bare .T./.F. literal. `.T. .AND. X` emits X alone;
`.F. .AND. X` emits PushBool(false) with X dropped; symmetric for
OR. Common after constant-folding a sub-expression — pairs with
the earlier dead-IF-branch peephole.

IF .T. collapses to its body; IF .F. forwards to the first live
ELSEIF or ELSE. For dynamic main conditions the chain is still
filtered: ELSEIF .F. drops out, ELSEIF .T. truncates and becomes
the ELSE. Verified with /tmp/test_deadif.prg — five dead labels
all removed from gen output, runtime emits only live branches.

Two more leaf-level code-gen cleanups now that the const folder is in.
- UnaryExpr MINUS over a LITERAL (INT/DOUBLE) emits the negated value
directly, so `-42` becomes PushInt(-42) instead of PushInt(42) +
Negate(). Guarded: MinInt64 passes through to the VM so the
coerce-to-double path stays authoritative. Variables fall through
to the normal Negate path — the LiteralExpr type assertion is the
gate, so runtime-typed `-x` keeps its semantics.
- `x := x + <expr>` / `x := x - <expr>` detected when the LHS ident
resolves to the same local as the self-reference on the RHS,
emits the same LocalAdd / Negate+LocalAdd shape that x += y already
used. Non-matching locals (shadowing, module statics) fall through.

Fold BinaryExpr subtrees whose operands reduce to INT or STRING
literals at compile time. `10 * 2 + 5` now emits a single PushInt(25)
instead of three VM ops; `"a" + "b"` collapses to "ab". Overflowing
INTs and SLASH (which Harbour turns into double) fall through to the
VM so semantics stay intact.
Implementation is a bottom-up foldLiteralTree pre-pass on each
BinaryExpr, plus a tryFoldBinary matcher for the leaf case. Mutates
the AST in place — safe because the generator owns the tree after
parse.
Bench numbers don't move (SQL paths have no literal-only arithmetic
in hot loops), but generated code shrinks on PRG that uses #define
constants for widths / offsets / factors.

The VM call path (PushSymbol → Function → Frame) is traversed by every
PRG function call. Three changes together cut per-call overhead across
the entire bench suite.
Changes
- hbrt/call.go Function(): replace pop-push dance with a single slice
shift (N+2 pops + N pushes → 1 copy of N slots + sp adjust). Kills
the per-call `make([]Value, nArgs)` heap alloc. Resolved function
pointer is cached back into sym.Func so subsequent calls on the
same Symbol skip the VM lookup entirely.
- hbrt/vm.go GetSym(): new helper. Generated code calls it with a
pointer to a package-level `*Symbol` slot so FindSymbol (which takes
the VM RWMutex + map lookup) runs at most once per symbol per
process. Nil results are intentionally NOT cached — an init-order
miss becomes a retry on the next call instead of a permanent sticky
failure.
- hbrt/thread.go pushPendingSym(): scalar fast slot for depth=1 call
nesting (common case). Nil syms still go through the slice so the
"empty vs stored nil" ambiguity can't produce a false pop.
- compiler/gengo/gengo.go: emit `t.PushSymbol(t.GetSym(&_sym_<file>_<NAME>, "NAME"))`
for every function call site, with a per-file prefix so multi-PRG
builds don't collide on identical symbol names.
Bugs fixed during bring-up
- pendingSymFast == nil was ambiguous ("unused" vs "nil stored"). Nil
syms now spill to the slice, preserving distinguishability.
- The old varName-reuse branch at the PushSymbol emit site skipped
the GetSym wrapper, emitting a raw `t.PushSymbol(varName)` against
an uninitialized package-level *Symbol. Every call path now funnels
through emitPushSymbol.

Prior behavior used exprToString() to serialize the TO expression
back into a string, so a runtime-evaluated filename like
`( Lower(cTable) + "_pk.ntx" )` ended up as the literal filename
`Lower(cTable) + "_pk.ntx"` on disk. Visible in FiveSql2's PRIMARY
KEY / UNIQUE DDL path: test_sql1999 was creating files with that
literal name, which the test happened not to care about because the
USE inside BEGIN SEQUENCE caught the failure.
Fix: if the File expression contains any function call (detected by
new containsCall walker), emit emitExpr + Pop2 + AsString — runtime
evaluation path. Static filenames (`TO test.ntx`) still use the
cheap exprToString branch.

Three emitIdent / emitIdentByName / emitPopByName call sites used
`t.PushLocal(0)` as the fallback for compile-time-unresolved names
(missing #include constants, undeclared globals, typos). PushLocal(0)
crashes at runtime the moment that code path executes with "local
variable index out of range: 0" — even when the identifier is dead
code or behind a condition that's rarely true.
Concrete bugs this hid:
- TSqlIndex:FindExclusive referenced DBI_FULLPATH / DBI_SHARED
from a non-existent dbinfo.ch include. The 43-test harness only
reached FindExclusive with no Used workareas, so the reference
was never evaluated. Any standalone PRG that called five_SQL
after dbUseArea would trip it.
- Prior session's BindColumns/ResolveCache experiment hit the same
class of crash in the CLASS Send path — diagnosed as "Unresolved
→ PushLocal(0)" at the time but root cause deferred.
Fix: use `t.PushMemvar(name)` / `t.PopMemvar(name)` instead. Matches
Harbour semantics (undefined identifiers try PRIVATE/PUBLIC memvar
tables at runtime, missing → NIL, assignment auto-creates PRIVATE).
Harbour is forgiving about unresolved names; Five now is too.
This doesn't silence the signal: the emitted comment still flags the
reference as unresolved for grep-ability in generated Go.

Two SQLite-style optimizations for RDD and SQL workloads:
1. FieldPos() O(1) column binding cache
Before: FieldPos(name) linear scan — O(n) per call with string
comparison. In SQL engines that call FieldPos per row per
column, this is hundreds of thousands of calls.
After: DBFArea builds a map[UPPER(name)]→pos on first lookup.
All subsequent lookups are O(1) hash. SQLite calls this
"column affinity binding" — positions resolved at prepare,
not per row.
Implementation:
- hbrdd/dbf/dbf.go: DBFArea.FieldPosCache(name) method
- hbrtl/procinfo.go: FieldPos RTL uses fieldPosCacher interface
- Lazy init: only pays for tables that get queried
2. hbrdd import auto-detection for function-call style PRGs
Before: compiler only added hbrdd import when PRG used xBase commands
(USE, SKIP, INDEX...). Pure function-call style like
`dbUseArea(.T.,,"t")`, `FieldPut(1, val)` was missed —
generated Go failed to compile ("undefined: hbrdd").
After: scanStmtsForXBase walks ExprStmt bodies too, detecting
CallExpr to any of the ~40 xBase RTL function names.
FIELD->NAME alias expressions also trigger the import.
Resolves: small PRGs that use only dbUseArea/FieldGet/FieldPut.
Benchmark notes (50k records):
Raw RDD scan: 7 ms (baseline)
FiveSql2 SELECT WHERE: 157 ms (unchanged — bottleneck is
not FieldPos, it's PRG-level
expression tree walk per row)
compat_harbour 51/51: PASS
FiveSql2 43/43: 100%
The FieldPos cache helps heavy field-name-based code paths but the
primary FiveSql2 bottleneck is the PRG interpreter walking expression
ASTs per row (needs bytecode compilation to close the gap).

Eliminate MacroEval overhead for INDEX ON with UDF/complex expressions.
Before: gengo passed KeyExpr as a string → indexer called MacroEval()
per record (50k × string parse + symbol lookup + function call).
After: gengo emits a Go closure (_keyFunc) that inlines the AST of
the key expression as direct Go code. The indexer calls the
closure directly — zero string parsing, zero runtime symbol
lookup for the hot loop.
Three code paths in the closure, depending on expression type:
1. UDF call: FindSymbol("FULLNAME") + Function(0)
(symbol lookup once per closure creation, not per record)
2. Field reference: GetValue(fieldIndex) inline
(no MacroEval, no FIELD-> alias resolution)
3. UPPER/LOWER(expr): strings.ToUpper/Lower inline
(no RTL function call overhead)
Architecture (Go compiler design principle):
Compile time knows the AST → emit native code.
Don't serialize to string → re-parse at runtime 50k times.
Benchmark (50k records, 3 UDF indexes):
before after Harbour ratio
3 UDF INDEX 163.0ms 60.0ms 55.0ms Five/HB = 1.09x
SEEK 10k 7.6ms 7.6ms 14.0ms Five 1.8x faster
SCAN 50k 3.4ms 3.4ms 4.0ms Five 15% faster
TOTAL 233.0ms 130.0ms 147.0ms Five 12% faster overall
UDF INDEX build went from 3x SLOWER than Harbour to nearly EQUAL.
SEEK/SCAN remain faster than Harbour (mmap + NTX optimizations).
Changes:
hbrdd/driver.go KeyFunc field in OrderCreateParams
hbrdd/dbf/indexer.go compiled path using KeyFunc before MacroEval fallback
compiler/gengo/gengo.go emitIndexKeyExpr: field-aware AST→Go emitter
for INDEX ON key expressions
Correctness: Harbour vs Five UDF diff = 0 (25-line output match)

All 3 remaining known constraints resolved. CLAUDE.md now shows zero.
1. CDX compound index WRITE support (was read-only)
New file: hbrdd/cdx/build.go (~400 LOC)
- CreateOrAddTag() builds Harbour-compatible CDX files
- Bit-packed leaf pages (RecBits/DupBits/TrlBits compression)
- Interior nodes with big-endian RecNo/ChildPage
- Compound root directory (structural B-tree of tag names)
- Append-safe: preserves existing tags when adding new ones
- Linked leaf pages (LeftPtr/RightPtr for sequential scan)
Pipeline: INDEX ON expr TAG tagname TO file
- ast.IndexCmd gains TagName field
- Parser captures TAG name (was discarded)
- gengo passes TagName to OrderCreateParams
- indexer.go routes to cdx.CreateOrAddTag when TAG specified
Verified: 3 tags (BYNAME/BYCITY/BYAGE), OrdSetFocus by name,
SEEK, GoTop/GoBottom, close+reopen with SET INDEX TO
2. {||} empty code block parsing in function arguments
Parser's parseArrayOrBlock() called parseExpr() unconditionally
after closing |, failing when body was empty ({||}).
Fix: check for RBRACE after closing | and emit NIL literal body.
{=>} empty hash already worked.

Before: `STATIC n := 0` inside a FUNCTION caused "local variable
index out of range: 0" panic. The gengo code generator only handled
module-level STATIC (file scope) but silently ignored function-level
STATIC declarations.
After: Function-level STATIC variables are emitted as Go package-level
vars with function-name prefixed names (e.g., `static_COUNTER_N`),
registered in staticVars map during function emission, and cleaned up
after the function to prevent name collisions.
Also fixes compound assignment (+=, -=, *=, /=) on STATIC variables,
which previously only handled simple assignment (:=).

Release-blocking compatibility issues discovered during the 258-test
pre-release validation suite (100 syntax + 44 RDD + 114 RTL).
1. PCount() always returned 0 in PRG code
Root cause: ParamCount() returned t.pendingParams, which is
overwritten by every nested Function() call. By the time the
PCount() RTL's Frame() executes, pendingParams is already 0.
Fix: Frame() now stores pendingParams in frame.paramCount.
PCount() RTL uses CallerParamCount() which reads callSP-2
(the PRG caller's frame), while RTL functions still use
ParamCount() (reads pendingParams before their own Frame).
Verified: PCount(1,2,3)=3, PCount(1)=1, PCount()=0
2. Break("string") panicked instead of being caught by RECOVER USING
Root cause: Generated SEQUENCE code only caught *HbError panics.
Break() panics with BreakValue (a different type), which fell
through to EndProc's "runtime error" message and re-panic.
Fix (two parts):
a) gengo emitBeginSequence: recover closure now catches any
panic (interface{}), then dispatches via type switch:
- *HbError → extract .Error() string
- hasValue interface (BreakValue) → extract .GetValue()
- other → static "error" string
b) hbrtl/error.go: BreakValue gets GetValue() method for
duck-type detection without import cycles
c) hbrt/thread.go EndProc: BreakValue type name check added
so it re-panics silently (no stderr noise)
3. SET INDEX TO a, b, c only opened the last file
Root cause: Parser's parseSet() called parseExpr() once for
INDEX setting, stopping at the first comma. Remaining file
names were consumed by the "eat rest of line" loop.
Fix: Parser now collects comma-separated identifiers into a
single string literal "a,b,c". gengo splits on comma and
calls OrderListAdd() for each file.
Verified: SET INDEX TO si_name, si_city → OrdCount=2

Five RDD engine now matches Harbour DBFNTX and DBFCDX byte-for-byte
in ordering, seek, navigation, and field access. Verified against
Harbour 3.2.0dev with a 281-line comparison test covering:
- Natural/NAME/CITY/AGE/SALARY/UPPER ordering
- SEEK (exact/not-found), GoTop/GoBottom per order
- DELETE/RECALL with SET DELETED
- CDX compound index read with 5 tags (BYNAME, BYCITY, BYAGE, BYSAL, BYUNAME)
- Reverse traversal
Fixes:
1. FIELD->NAME returned NIL
GetAliasField returned interface{} but runtime expected hbrt.Value,
so the type assertion in PushAliasField failed and pushed NIL.
- workarea.go: change return type to hbrt.Value, handle FIELD/_FIELD
as current-workarea alias, add SetAliasField
- gengo.go: emit SetAliasField() for alias->field := value in both
statement and expression contexts
2. OrdSetFocus(n) silently switched to natural order
v.AsString() returns "" for a numeric Value, so OrderListFocus("")
set current=-1.
- indexrtl.go: convert numeric param via fmt.Sprintf("%d", ...)
3. CDX compound tag order mismatched Harbour
Five decoded the structural B-tree which is alphabetical, but
Harbour sorts tags by TagBlock (file offset = creation order).
- cdx/cdx.go: sort tagEntries by offset ascending after decoding,
matching hb_cdxIndexLoadAvailTags in dbfcdx1.c
4. OutStd()/OutErr() not registered — caused panic on call
- hbrtl/console.go: add rtlOutStd/rtlOutErr implementations
- hbrtl/register.go: register OUTSTD and OUTERR
- analyzer.go: add OUTSTD/OUTERR to RTL known-functions
5. FIELD keyword triggered "undeclared variable" warnings
- analyzer.go: add FIELD, _FIELD, M, MEMVAR as builtin constants

- evalKeyExprInner default case: calls KeyEvalFunc for unknown functions
- Final fallback: any unresolvable expression → KeyEvalFunc → MacroEval
- valueToKeyBytes: converts MacroEval result to index key bytes
- gengo: sets dbf.KeyEvalFunc = t.MacroEval before OrderCreate, clears after
Examples that now work:
INDEX ON MyFunc(FIELD->NAME) TO idx // UDF in key expression
INDEX ON CityKey(FIELD->CITY, NAME) TO idx // multi-param UDF
INDEX ON Left(MyFunc(NAME), 15) TO idx // nested built-in + UDF
Also fixed:
- SET ORDER TO n: int→string via hbrt.NtoS (was empty string)
- CDX compound leaf decoder: proper bit-packed tag name extraction
- CDX compound recNo = direct byte offset (not page number)
All existing tests pass, NTX 47/47 + CDX 20/20 Harbour compat maintained.

CDX Integration:
- IndexEngine interface: common for NTX Index and CDX Tag
- OrderListAdd: auto-detects .cdx/.ntx extension, opens CDX tags
- decodeCompoundLeaf: proper bit-packed tag directory decoding
(was stub falling through to scanCompoundLeaves with wrong names)
- CDX Tag: added KeyLen(), KeyExpr(), ForExpr(), IsDescending(), Close()
- CDX compound recNo = direct byte offset (not page number)
ORDSCOPE:
- SetScope/ClearScope/SetScopeTop/SetScopeBottom on DBFArea
- GoTopIndexed: seeks to scopeTop, validates within scopeBottom
- GoBottomIndexed: seeks to scopeBottom boundary
- SkipIndexed: stops at scope boundaries (top and bottom)
- OrdScope RTL function registered (nScope: 0=TOP, 1=BOTTOM)
- scopeKeyFromValue: converts Value to padded key bytes
Index Order Management:
- OrderListFocus: handles numeric order ("2" → order 2)
- SET ORDER TO n: gengo emits hbrt.NtoS for int-to-string conversion
- IndexOrd/OrdCount/OrdName/OrdKey: real implementations (were stubs)
- OrderCount/CurrentOrder/OrderName/OrderKeyExpr accessors on DBFArea
- ClearScope on order switch (prevents stale scope)
Cross-read test: Harbour-created CDX → Five reads, 20/20 items match:
NAME/CITY/ID seek, ORDSCOPE count, GoTop/GoBottom all identical

Bug 1: FIELD->NAME in INDEX ON expression
- evalKeyExprInner: strip FIELD->/alias-> prefix before field lookup
- exprToString: handle AliasExpr (FIELD->NAME → "FIELD->NAME")
Bug 2: AsNumInt() on Double returned IEEE 754 raw bits
- Value.AsNumInt(): check tDouble and convert via Float64frombits
- Fixed array index crash when index is result of % modulo
Bug 3: PACK/ZAP crash with open indexes
- OrderListRebuild: fully implemented (was TODO stub)
Saves index info, closes all, sets idxState=nil, recreates
- OrderCreate: set current=-1 during key evaluation (natural GoTo)
- PACK/ZAP: save/restore idxState, rebuild after operation
- Register __DBPACK, __DBZAP, DBRECALL symbol aliases
Harbour vs Five: 45/47 match (96%), 2 diffs are duplicate-key sort order

- skipFilter: skip deleted records in GoTop/GoBottom/Skip when SET DELETED ON
- hbrdd.IsSetDeleted callback: avoids circular import hbrdd→hbrtl
- Parser: capture ON/OFF for boolean SET commands (DELETED, EXACT, SOFTSEEK, etc.)
- Parser: capture TO expr for SET DATE/DECIMALS/EPOCH
- Gengo: emit proper t.Do() calls for 11 SET toggles + 3 value SETs
- stmtSet: was stub (skipToEOL), now calls parseSet()
- RTL: register 11 SET toggle functions (SETDELETED, SETEXACT, etc.)
- RTL: DBLOCATE/DBCONTINUE for sequential search
- RTL: DBSETFILTER/DBCLEARFILTER/DBFILTER
- PadL/PadR: support 3rd param fill character
- Area interface: added SetFound, SetLocate, LocateBlock, filter methods
- MemRDD: implements new Area interface methods
- Comprehensive PRG test: test_search.prg (7 test suites all pass)
