buffered.writer effect allows buffered writing
by using the given Write_Provider

note: anything in the buffer when effect is uninstalled will be discarded.

Functions

§
:
Any
 => 
void 
[Inherited from  effect]
replace effect in the current context by this and abort current execution
§
:
Any
 => 
bool 
[Inherited from  effect]
does this effect support abort?

Redefining this to return `false` helps to detect unexptected calls to
`abort` at runtime and ensure that the static analysis finds that the
code executed with this effect will always return normally and produce
a result. This is used, e.g, in `mutate` to avoid static analysis
reporting `panic` as an effect of the use of a local mutate instance.
§
:
Any
 => 
String 
[Inherited from  Any]
create a String from this instance. Unless redefined, `a.as_string` will
create `"instance[T]"` where `T` is the dynamic type of `a`
§
:
Any
 => 
Type 
[Inherited from  Any]
Get the dynamic type of this instance. For value instances `x`, this is
equal to `type_of x`, but for `x` with a `ref` type `x.dynamic_type` gives
the actual runtime type, while `type_of x` results in the static
compile-time type.

There is no dynamic type of a type instance since this would result in an
endless hierachy of types. So for Type values, dynamic_type is redefined
to just return Type.type.
flush the buffer, that is, write out everything that is still
in the buffer
§
:
Any
 => 
effect_mode.val 
[Inherited from  effect]
§
:
Any
 => 
String 
[Inherited from  Type]
name of this type, including type parameters, e.g. 'option (list i32)'.
§
:
Any
 => 
String 
[Inherited from  Any]
convenience prefix operator to create a string from a value.

This permits usage of `$` as a prefix operator in a similar way both
inside and outside of constant strings: $x and "$x" will produce the
same string.
§
:
Any
 => 
void 
[Inherited from  effect]
abort the current execution and return from the surrounding call to
abortable with result == false.
§(R 
type
, f Function effect.run.R, def Function effect.run.R)
:
Any
 => 
effect.run.R 
[Inherited from  effect]
execute the code of 'f' in the context of this effect
install this effect and execute 'f'. Wrap the result of 'f' into an
'outcome' if 'f' returns normally, otherwise if 'f' is aborted early
via a call to 'raise' wrap the 'error' passed to 'raise' into the
resulting 'outcome'.

Type Features

§
:
Any
 is
 
[Inherited from  effect]
has an effect of the given type been installed?
§(E 
type
)
:
Any
 is
 
[Inherited from  effect]
has an effect of the given type been installed?
§
:
Any
 is
 
[Inherited from  Any]
Get a type as a value.

This is a feature with the effect equivalent to Fuzion's `expr.type` call tail.
It is recommended to use `expr.type` and not `expr.type_value`.

`type_value` is here to show how this can be implemented and to illustrate the
difference to `dynamic_type`.
