First, ensure all ParamDecls that are synthesized from scratch are given
both a contextual type and an interface type.
For ParamDecls written in source, add a new recordParamType() method to
GenericTypeResolver. This calls setType() or setInterfaceType() as
appropriate.
Interestingly enough a handful of diagnostics in the test suite have
improved. I'm not sure why, but I'll take it.
The ParamDecl::createUnboundSelf() method is now only used in the parser,
and no longer sets the type of the self parameter to the unbound generic
type. This was wrong anyway, since the type was always being overwritten.
This allows us to remove DeclContext::getSelfTypeOfContext().
Also, ensure that FuncDecl::getBodyResultTypeLoc() always has an interface
type for synthesized declarations, eliminating a mapTypeOutOfContext()
call when computing the function interface type in configureInterfaceType().
Finally, clean up the logic for resolving the DynamicSelfType. We now
get the interface or contextual type of 'Self' via the resolver, instead
of always getting the contextual type and patching it up inside
configureInterfaceType().
Following classes provide symbol mangling for specific purposes:
*) Mangler: the base mangler class, just providing some basic utilities
*) ASTMangler: for mangling AST declarations
*) SpecializationMangler: to be used in the optimizer for mangling specialized function names
*) IRGenMangler: mangling all kind of symbols in IRGen
All those classes are not used yet, so it’s basically a NFC.
Another change is that some demangler node types are added (either because they were missing or the new demangler needs them).
Those new nodes also need to be handled in the old demangler, but this should also be a NFC as those nodes are not created by the old demangler.
My plan is to keep the old and new mangling implementation in parallel for some time. After that we can remove the old mangler.
Currently the new implementation is scoped in the NewMangling namespace. This namespace should be renamed after the old mangler is removed.
