This patch exports all the binary operator builtins functions from
builtin.c and uses them for constant folding in the parser, allowing
constant folding to work will all kinds and combinations of constants.
Now string*number, $ARGS+$ARGS, string/string, etc will also be
constant folded and the implementation of constant folded operators and
runtime operators will be the same.
And thanks to the new ERRORK bytecode operation, errors are constant
folded too! (e.g. 1 / 0 [] * {} etc)
jq
jq is a lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor akin tosed,awk,grep, and friends for JSON data. It's written in portable C and has zero runtime dependencies, allowing you to easily slice, filter, map, and transform structured data.

Building from source
Dependencies
- libtool
- make
- automake
- autoconf
Instructions
git submodule update --init # if building from git to get oniguruma
autoreconf -i # if building from git
./configure --with-oniguruma=builtin
make -j8
make check
sudo make install
Build a statically linked version:
make LDFLAGS=-all-static
If you're not using the latest git version but instead building a released tarball (available on the release page), skip the autoreconf step, and flex or bison won't be needed.
