comptime
A compile-time computation mechanism provided by the Zig programming language, allowing developers to execute code, infer types, and generate code during the compilation phase. comptime is the core language feature through which Zig implements compile-time type information (CTTI).
Timeline (last 90 days)
Zig supports compile-time computation (comptime), allowing developers to execute arbitrary code, generate types, and validate structures at the compilation stage.
Zig has no macro system; instead it uses a unified compile-time execution model where the same function can be called at runtime or evaluated in a comptime context with completely consistent semantics.
Because validation logic occurs at compile time, the code ultimately generated by Zig type-safe templates contains only the necessary string-write operations, introducing almost no runtime overhead.
In Zig, types themselves are first-class values, and generic functions are essentially ordinary functions that accept types as comptime parameters.
The Zig language provides a comptime mechanism that allows compile-time computation, but enforces the vtable route for most other interfaces.
