This fixes an immediate bug with subst-to-orig conversion of
parameter functions that I'm surprised isn't otherwise tested.
More importantly, it preserves valuable information that should
let us handle a much wider variety of variant representations
that aren't necessarily expressed in the AbstractionPattern.
Modifies SILGen and the `Swift._diagnoseUnexpectedNilOptional` call to print a slightly different message for force unwraps which were implicitly inserted by the compiler for IUOs. The message is chosen based on the presence of certain flags in the `ForceValueExpr`, not on the type of the value being unwrapped.
conversions that reverse an implicit conversion done to align
foreign declarations with their imported types.
For example, consider an Objective-C method that returns an NSString*:
- (nonnull NSString*) foo;
This will be imported into Swift as a method returning a String:
func foo() -> String
A call to this method will implicitly convert the result to String
behind the scenes. If the user then casts the result back to NSString*,
that would normally be compiled as an additional conversion. The
compiler cannot simply eliminate the conversion because that is not
necessarily semantically equivalent.
This peephole recognizes as-casts that immediately reverse a bridging
conversion as a special case and gives them special power to eliminate
both conversions. For example, 'foo() as NSString' will simply return
the original return value. In addition to call results, this also
applies to call arguments, property accesses, and subscript accesses.
ground work for the syntactic bridging peephole.
- Pass source and dest formal types to the bridging routines in addition
to the dest lowered type. The dest lowered type is still necessary
in order to handle non-standard abstraction patterns for the dest type.
- Change bridging abstraction patterns to store bridged formal types
instead of the formal type.
- Improve how SIL type lowering deals with import-as-member patterns.
- Fix some AST bugs where inadequate information was being stored in
various expressions.
- Introduce the idea of a converting SGFContext and use it to regularize
the existing id-as-Any conversion peephole.
- Improve various places in SILGen to emit directly into contexts.
