// Exit: 0 clean, 1 a sample does not compile (or, for a `check_run` sample, does not

// or a crash).
//
// A `check_run` sample is a statement sample that is built and run: its batch gets one
// generated [RunAfterBuild] Sub that calls each sample in turn between marker lines,
// and the lines the run writes to the DEBUG CONSOLE are attributed to samples by
// those markers (lib/example-run.mjs; the capture is lib/tb-run.mjs).
//
// ------------------------------------------------------------------ why
//
// A ```tb fence is something check_code_regions.mjs protects the CONTENTS of
// and nothing ever evaluates. A sample that does not compile -- an icon key
// passed in a slot the same package's prose says raises 35613, or a Sub with
// no name -- passes every other gate.
//
// This is the tool that asks the compiler. It is NEVER part of build.bat,
// check.bat, test.bat or either CI workflow, for three reasons that are not
// going to change: an IDE cold start is 6-8 s where a whole site build is ~4 s;
// `npm install` has to remain sufficient to build the docs, and a twinBASIC
// install is not on that path; and CI has no Windows box, no private desktop
// and no CDP-reachable WebView2. It is `examples.bat`, run by a person, the same
// deal sweep_a11y.mjs already makes.
//
// ------------------------------------------------------------- opt-in, and why
//
// 1,124 `tb` fences under docs/, and a quarter of them are not programs: a
// statement run with an elision in it, a syntax skeleton, an `If` with no `End
// If`. A gate demanding that every fence compile would need hundreds of
// opt-outs on day one, and a list of hundreds of exceptions is a list nobody
// maintains. So a sample says it is complete by carrying `check_build` in its
// fence info string, and everything else is left alone -- which makes the
// marker the thing to get right, not the harness.
//
// ------------------------------------------------------- how a batch is built
//
// IDE cost is flat in project size -- what is paid for is startup, not
// compilation -- so samples are packed many to a project. Measured on this
// corpus: 1,082 auto-wrapped fences over 16 projects, four concurrent lanes,
// 36.6 s wall including packing. One project per sample would be over three
// hours.
//
// Three collision rules fall out of putting unrelated samples in one
// compilation unit, and each is a real hazard rather than a precaution:
//
//   * one generated `Module tbx_<hash>` per fence, hashed from its id;
//   * everything generated is Private -- eleven pages declare a `MyString`;
//   * a generated module must not share a name with the project, or
//     [RunAfterBuild]'s call becomes ambiguous and the IDE reports it at
//     EXECUTION time, so the build is green and nothing runs.
//
// `Sub Main` is not one of them, though it was once listed as one. The template
// brings a Main, and a sample may bring its own beside it: two `Public Sub
// Main`s in different modules compile (measured, BETA 983), which is how the
// WinServicesLib `Module Startup` samples build as written. That holds for a
// compile; a build refuses two Mains, and two [DllExport]s of one name, and a
// project with an error at all, so --build and --llvm batch around those three.
//
// And one that does not: a sample can take the compiler down. twinBASIC runs it
// in-process with user code, and a two-line syntax skeleton in Attributes.md
// crashes it outright (twinbasic/twinbasic#2453). In a batch that costs every other
// sample its result, so a crash is isolated, paid for only on failure: the
// sample tbbuild names as the one the compiler died parsing is built on its own
// and the rest without it, a crash that names none bisects, O(log n) builds, and
// one that needs several samples at once is reported with all of them.

(slot=sub) marked \`${RUN_MARKER}\` is also built and run, in every mode, and what it prints
is compared with what the page says it prints: the trailing comment on a Debug.Print
line, or the comment lines under a \`' Output:\` line. A sample that raises an error,
does not return, or prints something else is a finding; one that calls MsgBox or
InputBox, or contains End, or is not slot=sub, is refused without being built.
