- TypeAliasDecl::getAliasType() is gone. Now, getDeclaredInterfaceType()
always returns the NameAliasType.
- NameAliasTypes now always desugar to the underlying type as an
interface type.
- The NameAliasType of a generic type alias no longer desugars to an
UnboundGenericType; call TypeAliasDecl::getUnboundGenericType() if you
want that.
- The "lazy mapTypeOutOfContext()" hack for deserialized TypeAliasDecls
is gone.
- The process of constructing a synthesized TypeAliasDecl is much simpler
now; instead of calling computeType(), setInterfaceType() and then
setting the recursive properties in the right order, just call
setUnderlyingType(), passing it either an interface type or a
contextual type.
In particular, many places weren't setting the recursive properties,
such as the ClangImporter and deserialization. This meant that queries
such as hasArchetype() or hasTypeParameter() would return incorrect
results on NameAliasTypes, which caused various subtle problems.
- Finally, add some more tests for generic typealiases, most of which
fail because they're still pretty broken.
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().
Use a syntax that declares the layout's generic parameters and fields,
followed by the generic arguments to apply to the layout:
{ var Int, let String } // A concrete box layout with a mutable Int
// and immutable String field
<T, U> { var T, let U } <Int, String> // A generic box layout,
// applied to Int and String
// arguments
After recent changes, this asserts on all decls that are not VarDecls,
so we can just enforce that statically now. Interestingly, this turns
up some dead code which would have asserted immediately if called.
Also, replace AnyFunctionRef::getType() with
AnyFunctionRef::getInterfaceType(), since the old
AnyFunctionRef::getType() would just assert when called on
a Decl.
The uses of this function that want *all* nested types now go through
an entry point getAllNestedTypes(), and will need to be removed to
support recursive protocol constraints.
The uses of this function that only want to see what's been expanded
so far---dumpers and verifiers, mainly---can use
getKnownNestedTypes(), which may change type but is a reasonable
operation to continue using.
And make it be able to composite any TypeReprs.
Although Swift doesn't support composition of arbitrary types, AST
should be able to hold any TypeReprs, to represent syntax as accurate as
possible.
We don't want the machine calling conventions for closure invocation functions to necessarily be tied to the convention for normal thin functions or methods. NFC yet; for now, 'closure' follows the same behavior as the 'method' convention, but as part of partial_apply simplification it will be a requirement that partial_apply takes a @convention(closure) function and a box and produces a @convention(thick) function from them.
Sugared GenericTypeParamTypes point to GenericTypeParamDecls,
allowing the name of the parameter as written by the user to be
recovered. Canonical GenericTypeParamTypes on the other hand
only store a depth and index, without referencing the original
declaration.
When printing SIL, we wish to output the original generic parameter
names, even though SIL only uses canonical types. Previously,
we used to accomplish this by mapping the generic parameter to an
archetype and printing the name of the archetype. This was not
adequate if multiple generic parameters mapped to the same
archetype, or if a generic parameter was mapped to a concrete type.
The new approach preserves the original sugared types in the
GenericEnvironment, adding a new GenericEnvironment::getSugaredType()
method.
There are also some other assorted simplifications made possible
by this.
Unfortunately this makes GenericEnvironments use a bit more memory,
however I have more improvements coming that will offset the gains,
in addition to making substitution lists smaller also.
Type::subst()'s "IgnoreMissing" option was fairly unprincipled, dropping
unsubstituted types into the resulting AST without any indication
whatsoever that anything went wrong. Replace this notion with a new
form of ErrorType that explicitly tracks which substituted type caused
the problem. It's still an ErrorType, but it prints like the
substituted type (which is important for code completion) and allows
us to step back to the substituted type if needed (which is used by
associated type inference). Then, allow Type::subst(), when the new
UseErrorTypes flag is passed, to form partially-substituted types that
contain errors, which both code completion and associated type
inference relied on.
Over time, I hope we can use error-types-with-original-types more
often to eliminate "<<error type>>" from diagnostics and teach
Type::subst() never to return a "null" type. Clients can check
"hasError()" to deal with failure cases rather than checking null.
RequirementReprs stored serialized references to archetypes,
which do not have enough information to reconstruct same-type
requirements.
For this reason, we would serialize the 'as written' requirement
string as well as the actual types, which is a horrible hack.
Now that the ASTPrinter and SourceKit use GenericSignatures,
none of this is needed anymore.
This fixes a usability regression with the removal of @noreturn
in Swift 3. Previously, it was legal to write this:
let callback: () -> Int = { fatalError() }
Now that the special @noreturn attribute has been replaced with
a Never type, the above fails to typecheck, because the expression
now has type 'Never', and we expect a value of type 'Int'.
Getting around this behavior requires ugly workarounds to force the
parser to treat the body as a statement rather than an expression;
for example,
let callback: () -> Int = { _ = (); fatalError() }
This patch generalized single-expression closures to allow
the 'Never to T' conversion. Note that this is rather narrow
in scope -- it only applies to closure *literals*, single-expression
ones at that, not arbitrary function *values*.
In fact, it is not really a conversion at all, but more of a
desugaring rule for single-expression closures. They can now be
summarized as follows:
- If the closure literal has contextual return type T and
the expression has Never type, the closure desugars as
{ _ = <expr> }, with no ReturnStmt.
- If the closure literal has contextual return type T for some
non-void type T, the closure desugars as { return <expr> };
the expression type must be convertible to T.
- If the closure literal has contextual return type Void, and
the expression has some non-Void type T, the closure
desugars as { _ = <expr>; return () }.
Fixes <rdar://problem/28269358> and <https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-2661>.
Switch printing off of using Function's ExtInfo for autoclosure and
escaping, and onto the ParameterTypeFlags, which let us do precise and
accurate context-sensitive printing of these parameter type
attributes. This fixes a huge list of issues where we were printing
@escaping for things like optional ObjC completion handlers, among
many others. We now correctly print @escaping in more places, and
don't print it when it's not correct.
Also updates the dumper to be consistent and give a good view of the
AST as represented in memory. Tests updated, more involved testing
coming soon.
This was causing us to emit diagnostics talking about τ_m_n, which is
not helpful.
Now that generic function types print sanely, print them in a few
places where we were previously printing PolymorphicFunctionTypes.
ExprHandle is a relic from a horrible time when expressions made their
way into the type system via default arguments. It's been unnecessary
for a long time, so get rid of it.
This eliminates a pile of now-dead code in:
* The type checker, where we no longer have special cases for bridging conversions
* The expression ASTs, where we no longer need to distinguish bridging collection up/down casts
* SILGen, which no longer uses
Still to come is the removal of the
_(set|dictionary)Bridge(From|To)ObjectiveC(Conditional)? entrypoints
from the standard library. They're still used by some tests.
One minor revision: this lifts the proposed restriction against
overriding a non-open method with an open one. On reflection,
that was inconsistent with the existing rule permitting non-public
methods to be overridden with public ones. The restriction on
subclassing a non-open class with an open class remains, and is
in fact consistent with the existing access rule.
The isExplicitlyEscaping bit, though useful for printing,
unfortunately puts us in a position where we have different bit
patterns for the same type, and thus lose much of our type equivalence
checking for overriding, protocol conformance, etc., even if we were
to take subtyping into account. We need to drop it, relying on the
existing noescape bit alone to determine the type's semantics (at
least, as long as we continue to encode this information in the type
system).
This is a partial fix; we will now be excessively printing @escaping,
but the subsequent commits will correct this. For printing, we will
instead need to be more context-aware.
Extend the handling of function reference kinds to member references
(e.g., x.f), and therefore the logic for stripping argument labels. We
appear to be stripping argument labels from all of the places where it
is required.
When referencing a function in the type checker, drop argument labels
when we don't need them to type-check an immediate call to that
function. This provides the semantic behavior of SE-0111, e.g.,
references to functions as values produce unlabeled function types,
without the representational change of actually dropping argument
labels from the type system.
At the moment, this only works for bare references to functions. It
still needs to be pushed through more of the type checker and more AST
nodes to work in the general case.
Keep this work behind the frontend flag
-suppress-argument-labels-in-types for now.
