Update for SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer
This adds a "mutating" initialize to UnsafePointer to make
Immutable -> Mutable conversions explicit.
These are quick fixes to stdlib, overlays, and test cases that are necessary
in order to remove arbitrary UnsafePointer conversions.
Many cases can be expressed better up by reworking the surrounding
code, but we first need a working starting point.
Provides a new fallback for Process arguments for those instances where we do
not own main (e.g. Frameworks, Objective-C owns main.m or main.c, etc.). This
includes a number of platform-specific specializations of argument grabbing
logic and a new thread-safe interface to Process.unsafeArgv.
main() | _NSGetArgc/_NSGetArgv | /proc/self/cmdline | __argc/__argv
--------|--------------------------|------------------------|---------------
Scripts | OS X, iOS, tvOS, watchOS | Linux, FreeBSD, Cygwin | Windows
For interpreted Swift where we must filter out the arguments we now do so by
loading the standard library and calling into new SPI to override the arguments
that would have been grabbed by the runtime. This implementation completely
subsumes the use of the entry point '_stdlib_didEnterMain' and it will be
removed in a future commit.
The general rule here is that something needs to be SWIFT_CC(swift)
if it's just declared in Swift code using _silgen_name, as opposed to
importing something via a header.
Of course, SWIFT_CC(swift) expands to nothing by default for now, and
I haven't made an effort yet to add the indirect-result / context
parameter ABI attributes. This is just a best-effort first pass.
I also took the opportunity to shift a few files to just implement
their shims header and to demote a few things to be private stdlib
interfaces.
Implements SE-0055: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0055-optional-unsafe-pointers.md
- Add NULL as an extra inhabitant of Builtin.RawPointer (currently
hardcoded to 0 rather than being target-dependent).
- Import non-object pointers as Optional/IUO when nullable/null_unspecified
(like everything else).
- Change the type checker's *-to-pointer conversions to handle a layer of
optional.
- Use 'AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSError?>?' as the type of error
parameters exported to Objective-C.
- Drop NilLiteralConvertible conformance for all pointer types.
- Update the standard library and then all the tests.
I've decided to leave this commit only updating existing tests; any new
tests will come in the following commits. (That may mean some additional
implementation work to follow.)
The other major piece that's missing here is migration. I'm hoping we get
a lot of that with Swift 1.1's work for optional object references, but
I still need to investigate.
The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
