Plan for on-demand type resolution:
- Single-file output with dependencies appended
- Parse included headers only for missing types
- Three-phase algorithm: parse, detect, resolve
- Five components with clear interfaces and tests
Key features:
- Type reference scanner (finds all type usage)
- Defined type collector (tracks what exists)
- Include header parser (extracts #include directives)
- Selective type extractor (finds specific types)
- Main integration (wires everything together)
Advantages:
- Simple: one output file, no modules
- Fast: parse dependencies once, extract many types
- Minimal: only extract required types
- Robust: Zig handles duplicate definitions
- Testable: each component independently tested
Ready to implement with:
- Detailed code examples for each component
- Complete test strategy
- Success metrics
- 5-day rollout plan
- Risk mitigation
