fix(hir): same-name classes get their own ClassId per scope — the inner body is no longer silently dropped (#9466) - #9527
Conversation
Demonstrates the aliasing on unfixed origin/main: three depths, sibling module-top blocks, sibling blocks in a function, sibling functions, if/else + try/catch/finally + loop bodies, a shadowed class captured in a closure called after its block exits, instanceof across the shadowing boundary, .name (PerryTS#9413 regression guard), and subclassing a shadowed class. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014knX724SYDogwzsXybCGxp
The rename scan was missing from ALL {}-shaped scopes, not just bare
blocks, so the fixture now names each kind: bare block, if/else, loop
body, try/catch/finally, and both switch forms (a bare case
statement-list, which shares one switch block scope, and a braced case,
which is its own). Two loop arms pin the span-keyed semantics: one
declaration site is ONE class across iterations, its closures outlive
the loop, and a per-iteration capture still gets three environments.

…ry + third depth Arm 4's instanceof rows sit at TWO-scope depth, which the name-keyed disambiguation already handled, so they pass before and after: they guard the fix but do not demonstrate the gap. These two do — a block-scoped class (never lowered at all before the fix, so its instances were instances of the OUTER class) and a third-depth one (aliased onto the second's ClassId).

…ryTS#9466) Same-name `class` declarations at different lexical depths aliased onto one ClassId and the inner body was silently dropped — wrong code, no diagnostic. Two defects, one symptom. 1. The "already renamed" guard was per NAME, not per SCOPE. `maybe_rename_colliding_class` returned early on `class_renames.contains_key(name)`. But `class_renames` is INHERITED by nested bodies — it is snapshotted and restored per body, so an enclosing body's alias is live while a nested one lowers. A nested body declaring the same name therefore took that early return and registered its `class X` under the OUTER body's key. Third and later occurrences shared one ClassId; whichever body lowered first won. The map value now carries the source span of the scope that minted the alias, so the guard means "THIS scope already renamed it" — the idempotence the guard existed for — while every nested scope mints its own. That span key is also what makes it safe to hook the scan at more than one funnel: a function body is scanned twice (Phase-1.5, then `lower_block_stmt`) and the matching key makes the second a no-op. Without it the second alias would strand that body's end-of-body capture re-registration on a stale key — the 2026-07-02 audit P0 that `capture_rereg_renamed_class.rs` guards. 2. Block scopes never ran the disambiguation scan at all. Only function bodies did, so two sibling `{ class Blk { … } }` blocks shared one ClassId and the second was never lowered. Measured on unfixed main, ALL of these ran the outer class: bare blocks (module-level and in-function), `if`/`else` branches, loop bodies, `try`/`catch`/`finally`, and both switch forms. `class` is block-scoped, so `enter_class_rename_scope` / `exit_class_rename_scope` now bracket every `{ … }`-shaped scope, deliberately mirroring `register_block_forward_lexicals` (PerryTS#6062), which brackets the same boundary for TDZ names: record only what this scope changed, undo exactly that, so an alias owned by an enclosing scope survives. `lower_block_stmt` is the funnel `rebind_nested_forward_scope_lets` already documents for those scopes; the strict-mode branch of `lower_block_stmt_scoped` bypasses it, and switch case statement-lists are not `BlockStmt`s, so both take the bracket explicitly. This is an identity fix, not a naming one: each declaration gets its own ClassId, so `instanceof` across the shadowing boundary is right in both directions, `Object.getPrototypeOf` disagrees with the outer prototype, and `class Sub extends M` inside the inner scope extends the INNER `M`. `.name` keeps reporting the source name — the PerryTS#9413 (PR PerryTS#9465) display-name override lives on the same `lower_class_decl` site every new alias flows through, so it composes for free.

…ent bug
`class Cp { v(){ return "cp" + i } }` in a loop body prints cp3,cp3,cp3
instead of cp0,cp1,cp2 — but that reproduces with NO name shadowing
anywhere and is byte-identical before and after this fix, so it is the
class-capture snapshot mechanism (one RegisterClassCaptures per class,
refreshed at assignments and returns; a loop body has neither), not class
identity. Filed separately; the fixture keeps discriminating one thing.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Reserve enclosing class identities before nested scopes lower.
lookup_class(name) is None when a nested block appears before a same-named direct class in its enclosing function body. Phase-1.5 records that outer declaration only in forward_class_names; it does not register a ClassId. The nested class X then remains unaliased and registers as X. The later enclosing class X collides with that registration and can share the wrong ClassId.
Track unresolved enclosing declarations by lexical scope, or pre-register their distinct identities before lowering nested scopes.

Wrong-code fix: a third same-name class at a different nesting depth aliased onto the second's ClassId, so its body was silently replaced — the program ran the wrong methods with no diagnostic.
Two defects, one repair
1. The over-broad idempotence guard.
maybe_rename_colliding_classreturned early on!class_renames.contains_key(name)— "already aliased, nothing to do." The intent (idempotence) was sound; the model was flat.class_renamesis inherited by nested bodies, so a nestedclass Xhit the early return and registered under the outer body's key. The correct condition is "already aliased by this scope."2. Only function bodies ran the rename scan at all. Measured on unfixed main: bare blocks,
if/elsebranches, loop bodies,try/catch/finallyand bothswitcharm shapes all silently ran the outer class — the inner one was never lowered.The mechanism mirrored, not invented
register_block_forward_lexicals(#6062) brackets the same block boundary for TDZ names with exactly the record-what-I-changed/undo-exactly-that shape, andrebind_nested_forward_scope_lets' doc names the funnel every{}-scope shares — which handed over the call-site list.class_renames' value becomes(registration key, scope key)with the scope key = the declaring scope's source span;enter/exit_class_rename_scopebracketlower_block_stmt,lower_block_stmt_scoped(the strict branch bypasses the former), and both switch arms.The span key is what makes multi-funnel placement safe: a function body is scanned twice (Phase-1.5, then
lower_block_stmt), and the matching key makes the second scan a no-op — without it, the second alias would strand the end-of-body capture re-registration on a stale key, whichcapture_rereg_renamed_class.rsguards.Blast radius: 9 files, +482/−23;
resolve_class_nameone line; the 4contains_keyand 5 clone/restore sites unchanged..namecomposes with #9465 for free — every new alias flows through the same site that records the display-name override.Verification
13-arm fixture, 28 assertions, demonstrated failing on unfixed main across every scope kind — depths (
top outer,innervs…,outer), sibling blocks, branches, try/catch/finally, loop bodies, both switch shapes, closures capturing a shadowed class after its block exits, and identity (instanceofacross the shadowing boundary both directions). After: byte-identical to node. One load-bearing test honesty note: the original instanceof rows sat at two-scope depth, which the old rename already handled — they guard but don't discriminate; block-boundary and third-depth instanceof arms were added, and those flip.test_class_name_and_source_9413.tsandtest_static_this_is_not_an_instance_9404.ts(PR #9465's fixtures) byte-identical.--release: 2974 / 0pass→compile_failre-verified PASS in isolation; 5 are http/network churn wherenode_failmeans node itself failed. An earlier ENOSPC window's 14 contiguous movers were each re-run individually: PASS both sides.Cross-module (#9133) — answered with a probe, and it corrects the record
A 3-module probe shows cross-module class identity (
A===B, instanceof, prototypes) was already correct before and after — HIR ClassIds are threaded globally throughrun_pipeline → collect_modules → lower_module_with_class_id, contradicting the "per-module ids collide" framing in the internal notes. What the probe did show: the block-scope bug reproduced independently inside every module, and this fix repairs all of them. #9133's anon-shape face is untouched.Found, proved orthogonal, filed separately
for (…) { class C { v(){ return "c"+i } } }yieldsc3,c3,c3(node:c0,c1,c2) — a capture-snapshot staleness, not an identity bug: a non-shadowed control (class Uniqalone in a loop) behaves identically before and after this change. Dropped from the fixture so it discriminates one thing.Closes #9466.
