To avoid creating a procedure literal from a procedure type and a
following block statement, one can insert a semicolon or an empty line
between the two:
// procedure literals
p1 :: proc() {…}
p2 :: proc()
{…}
// procedure type followed by a block statement
p3 :: proc()
{…}
The empty line as a separator did not work if the procedure type had a
diverging result:
// all of these are procedure literals
p4 :: proc() -> ! {…}
p5 :: proc() -> !
{…}
p6 :: proc() -> !
{…}
The least annoying fix I came up with is to insert implicit semicolon
after the "not" token. I only needed to make sure that the inserted
implicit semicolon is being skipped when the "not" token is a part of
unary expression to avoid breaking an oddly-formatted code like:
b := get_some_bool()
if !
b {…}
One small side-effect of this change is that in code like below:
Proc_Type :: proc() -> !
// Some comment
Some_Other_Type :: enum byte {…}
The "// Some comment" is not associated with "Proc_Type" anymore. In
Odin's standard library this only happens in one place, in
`base/runtime/core.odin`:
Assertion_Failure_Proc :: #type proc(prefix, message: string, loc: Source_Code_Location) -> !
// Allocation Stuff
Allocator_Mode :: enum byte {
Alloc,
…,
}

The Odin Programming Language
Odin is a general-purpose programming language with distinct typing, built for high performance, modern systems, and built-in data-oriented data types. The Odin Programming Language, the C alternative for the joy of programming.
