This is missing almost all semantic analysis and is missing various
optimization opportunities (e.g. final methods that are not overrides
don't need vtable entries), but this is enough to devirtualize class
stuff, which is important for our performance efforts. I'll add this
to release notes when it is more fully fleshed out.
Swift SVN r15885
Make ObjCMutablePointer @objc-able for (potentially optional) class types, and bridge it down to UnsafePointer when calling @objc entry points.
Swift SVN r15838
retain_value instructions, just like we do for strong_retain/release.
This wraps up rdar://15889208, which is admittedly more of a moral
victory than a practical one.
Swift SVN r15804
Lower LValueConversionExprs to LValueConversionComponents of SILGen's LValues, which add the conversion pair as a logical component of a writeback chain.
Swift SVN r15771
Add a third branch to the constraint system for '&x' expressions that allows conversion from an lvalue to a type via an additional writeback step:
- Add an LValueConversionExpr node that converts from @lvalue T to @lvalue U, given a pair of functions that convert T -> U and U -> T, to represent the writeback temporary.
- Allow conversion in an inout expression from @lvalue T to a type U that has the following members:
static func __writeback_conversion(Builtin.RawPointer, T.Type) -> U
static func __writeback_conversion_get(T) -> V
static func __writeback_conversion_set(V) -> T
which builds a solution that produces an LValueConversion from the get/set pair before passing the pointer to the writeback temporary off to the conversion function.
Swift SVN r15764
Swift will use the basename + argument names formulation for
names. Update the DeclName interfaces, printing, and __FUNCTION__ to
use the method syntax.
We'll still need to rework the "x.foo:bar:wibble:" syntax; that will
come (significantly) later.
Swift SVN r15763
Language features like erasing concrete metatype
values are also left for the future. Still, baby steps.
The singleton ordinary metatype for existential types
is still potentially useful; we allow it to be written
as P.Protocol.
I've been somewhat cavalier in making code accept
AnyMetatypeType instead of a more specific type, and
it's likely that a number of these places can and
should be more restrictive.
When T is an existential type, parse T.Type as an
ExistentialMetatypeType instead of a MetatypeType.
An existential metatype is the formal type
\exists t:P . (t.Type)
whereas the ordinary metatype is the formal type
(\exists t:P . t).Type
which is singleton. Our inability to express that
difference was leading to an ever-increasing cascade
of hacks where information is shadily passed behind
the scenes in order to make various operations with
static members of protocols work correctly.
This patch takes the first step towards fixing that
by splitting out existential metatypes and giving
them a pointer representation. Eventually, we will
need them to be able to carry protocol witness tables
Swift SVN r15716
When we see pointer types in function or method parameters, import them as the bridged CMutablePointer/CConstPointer types instead of UnsafePointer, enabling the array and inout conversions with imported APIs.
Swift SVN r15705
Optional type,
The attempt to coerce the operand to UncheckedOptional for
dynamic member accesses leads to an inconsistency when
applying the constraint solution because we haven't figured
out how to convert to UncheckedOptional<T> --- all the
conversion restrictions are to optional type.
The test case will be part of the standard test suite when
applying the UncheckedOptional import patch.
In order to continue to work around weaknesses in SILGen's
function conversion code, peephole optional conversion in
the function application path.
Swift SVN r15651
We won't have any types where copying has an effect on the bit pattern (except for blocks, which need special handling anyway), and copy_value having a result makes optimizations more complex, so remove it.
Swift SVN r15640
When we see CConstPointer or CMutablePointer in a foreign function signature, transparently bridge it to UnsafePointer at the foreign entry point, lifetime-extending the C*Pointer value during foreign calls so that its owner reference is held for the duration of the call.
Swift SVN r15602
We can just get it from the instance type, if the instance type has been fully initialized, which is the case except during parsing of type decls when the decls' own types are being formed.
Swift SVN r15598
Implement lowering for the LValueToPointer and InOutConversion expressions. For the former, we emit the lvalue, then convert it to a RawPointer; for the latter, we introduce an InOutConversion scope, which suppresses any nested writeback conversion scopes.
This completes the implementation of inout address conversion, except that we don't implement reabstraction of the lvalue prior to taking its address. Simply report them unimplemented for now, since reabstraction should not come up for our immediate use case with C types.
Swift SVN r15595
Add two new AST node types:
- InOutConversionExpr, which represents an '&x' expression that involves inout conversion. This will be a signal to SILGen not to introduce a writeback scope for the nested conversion call.
- LValueToPointerExpr, which represents the primitive '@lvalue T' to 'RawPointer' conversion that produces the argument to the inout conversion.
Build an InOutConversionExpr AST when an inout expression is resolved by a conversion to an BuiltinInOutAddressConvertible type.
Swift SVN r15594
Allow a form of 'case is T' that matches the cast result to a subpattern, 'case <pattern> as T'. This exposes an issue in switch destructuring with casting into complex class hierarchies <rdar://problem/16401831> but works for common cases.
Swift SVN r15396
Getters and setters don't always take self at +1, in particular @objc accessors, so we can't just take the base object as an unmanaged thing. Fixes <rdar://problem/16398756>.
Swift SVN r15372
This switches property/subscript dispatch to use virtual dispatch instead of static
dispatch. This currently only works for computed properties (and subscripts of
course), not stored ones yet.
Long story short, this:
class Base {
subscript() -> Int {
return 42
}
}
class Derived : Base {
@override
subscript() -> Int {
return 9
}
}
var a : Base = Derived()
print(a[])
now prints 9 instead of 42.
Swift SVN r15142
Loosen the restrictions on open_existential_ref to also allow it to
refer to an existential metatype. When it does, open_existential_ref
returns the metatype for the opened archetype.
Swift SVN r15113
If an extension introduces an @objc protocol conformance using existing methods that are already @objc, then we shouldn't emit @objc thunks for them again, and indeed, we can't for native ObjC classes. Fixes <rdar://problem/16330856>.
