<p class="module-desc"><p>NIF-based goto-definition / find-all-usages for <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">nim</span> <span class="Identifier">track</span></span></tt>.</p>
<p>This is the mainline-Nim port of nimony's <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">idetools</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">nim</span></span></tt>. It answers a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">--</span><span class="Identifier">def</span><span class="Punctuation">:</span><span class="Identifier">FILE</span><span class="Punctuation">,</span><span class="Identifier">LINE</span><span class="Punctuation">,</span><span class="Identifier">COL</span></span></tt> / <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">--</span><span class="Identifier">usages</span><span class="Punctuation">:</span><span class="Identifier">FILE</span><span class="Punctuation">,</span><span class="Identifier">LINE</span><span class="Punctuation">,</span><span class="Identifier">COL</span></span></tt> query by <em>scanning the `.s.bif` files</em> (binary NIF, see <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">dist</span><span class="Operator">/</span><span class="Identifier">nimony</span><span class="Operator">/</span><span class="Identifier">src</span><span class="Operator">/</span><span class="Identifier">lib</span><span class="Operator">/</span><span class="Identifier">bif</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">nim</span></span></tt>) that the preceding <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">nim</span> <span class="Identifier">ic</span></span></tt> frontend (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">nim</span> <span class="Identifier">track</span></span></tt>) emitted into the nimcache directory — NOT by re-running sem. NIF distinguishes a definition (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">SymbolDef</span></span></tt> token) from a use (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">Symbol</span></span></tt> token) syntactically, so goto-def / find-uses become plain token scans over type-checked NIF, which is more reliable than the classic PSym engine because generics and macros are type-checked in the NIF too.</p>
<p>Two passes (mirroring nimony's <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">usages</span></span></tt>):</p>
<ol class="simple"><li>Load the queried module's <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">s</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">bif</span></span></tt> and find the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">Symbol</span></span></tt>/<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">SymbolDef</span></span></tt> token whose line info + identifier length contains <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">conf</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">m</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">trackPos</span></span></tt>. That yields the mangled symbol NAME and whether it is global (&gt;= 2 dots).</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">--</span><span class="Identifier">usages</span></span></tt>: emit every <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">Symbol</span></span></tt> (use) token; <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">--</span><span class="Identifier">def</span></span></tt>: every <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">SymbolDef</span></span></tt>. A global symbol is scanned across every module <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">s</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">bif</span></span></tt>; a local one only within the queried module.</li>
</ol>
<p>IMPORTANT porting note: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">bif</span><span class="Operator">.</span><span class="Identifier">load</span></span></tt> mints FRESH per-file pools, so a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">SymId</span></span></tt> from module A's buffer is meaningless in module B's. The cross-module match is therefore by the mangled NAME string, never by <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre"><span class="Identifier">SymId</span></span></tt> (nimony can compare ids because it parses every text NIF into one shared global pool; we cannot).</p>
