If something isn't a class or bridgeable by value or error bridging, we can still fall back to universal bridging by the runtime. Make this available for manual use by an explicit `as AnyObject` cast.
Implements almost all of SE-0067. There are a few outstanding features; this implementation does not have:
- formRemainder(dividingBy:)
- formSquareRoot()
- addProduct(_:,_:)
which require additions to the Builtin module. I can probably figure out how to do these, but I haven't had a chance to do so yet. Also missing are the generic initializers and comparisons whose implementation depends on having new Integer protocols.
The last remaining feature of SE-0067 is that while the basic operators +,-,*,/, etc are moved onto the FloatingPoint protocol, they are still required on the concrete types in order to disambiguate overloads. Fixing this seems to require either modifying the overload resolution rules or removing these operators from some other protocols. Or it might just require that someone smarter than me looks at the problem.
Passes the existing tests locally (with the included changes). I'm working on additional tests for the new features.
as a failure to convert the individual operand, since the operator
is likely conceptually generic in some way and the choice of any
specific overload is probably arbitrary.
Since we now fall back to a better-informed diagnostics point, take
advantage of this to generate a specialized diagnostic when trying to
compare values of function type with ===.
Fixes rdar://25666129.

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.
This lets us eliminate the _getObjectiveCType() value witness, which
was working around the lack of proper type witness metadata in witness
tables. Boilerplate -= 1.
With the exception of a specific whitelist of cases where the
Foundation module defines conformances to _ObjectiveCBridgeable for
standard library types, only permit an _ObjectiveCBridgeable
conformance in the same module as the type that's conforming to the
protocol. Among other things, this prevents the optimizer from
concluding that a dynamic cast between a Swift value type and its
bridged Objective-C class type can never succeed. See
34ff1c8e6d
for the optimizer issue. As part of this, bring the whitelist in sync
with reality, now that the compiler enforces it.
Rearrange diagnoseGeneralConversionFailure to diagnose structural problems
even if we have some UnresolvedTypes floating around, then reject constraint
failures with UnresolvedTypes in them even harder. This keeps us giving
good errors about failures where we have a structural problem (with buried
irrelevant details) while not complaining about cases that are actually
ambiguous.
The end result of this is that we produce a lot better error messages in the
case of failed archetype inference. This also highlights the poor job we do
handling multi-stmt closureexprs...
Most of this is in updating the standard library, SDK overlays, and
piles of test cases to use the new names. No surprises here, although
this shows us some potential heuristic tweaks.
There is one substantive compiler change that needs to be factored out
involving synthesizing calls to copyWithZone()/copy(zone:). Aside from
that, there are four failing tests:
Swift :: ClangModules/objc_parse.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/Foundation_test.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/archiving_generic_swift_class.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/objc_currying.swift
due to two independent remaining compiler bugs:
* We're not getting partial ordering between NSCoder's
encode(AnyObject, forKey: String) and NSKeyedArchiver's version of
that method, and
* Dynamic lookup (into AnyObject) doesn't know how to find the new
names. We need the Swift name lookup tables enabled to address this.
mode (take 2)
Allow untyped placeholder to take arbitrary type, but default to Void.
Add _undefined<T>() function, which is like fatalError() but has
arbitrary return type. In playground mode, merely warn about outstanding
placeholders instead of erroring out, and transform placeholders into
calls to _undefined(). This way, code with outstanding placeholders will
only crash when it attempts to evaluate such placeholders.
When generating constraints for an iterated sequence of type T, emit
T convertible to $T1
$T1 conforms to SequenceType
instead of
T convertible to SequenceType
This ensures that an untyped placeholder in for-each sequence position
doesn't get inferred to have type SequenceType. (The conversion is still
necessary because the sequence may have IUO type.) The new constraint
system precipitates changes in CSSimplify and CSDiag, and ends up fixing
18741539 along the way.
(NOTE: There is a small regression in diagnosis of issues like the
following:
class C {}
class D: C {}
func f(a: [C]!) { for _: D in a {} }
It complains that [C]! doesn't conform to SequenceType when it should be
complaining that C is not convertible to D.)

and probably others.
When we're type-checking a failed ApplyExpr that has an overload set that
prevents getting a specific type to feed into the initial typechecking of
the argument list, ranking can often narrow down the list of candidates
further, to the point where there is only one candidate left or where all
candidates agree that one argument is wrong.
In this case, re-type-check the subexpr with the expected type. In the case of
rdar://problem/22243469 we now produce:
t.swift:6:11: error: invalid conversion from throwing function of type '() throws -> ()' to non-throwing function type '() -> Void'
process {
^
instead of:
t.swift:6:3: error: cannot invoke 'process' with an argument list of type '(() throws -> ())'
process {
^
t.swift:6:3: note: overloads for 'process' exist with these partially matching parameter lists: (UInt, fn: () -> Void)
process {
^
Which is a heck of a lot less specific. Similarly, in the testcase from rdar://23550816, instead
of producing:
takeTwoFuncsWithDefaults { $0 + 1 }
error: cannot invoke 'takeTwoFuncsWithDefaults' with an argument list of type '((Int -> Int)?)'
note: expected an argument list of type '(f1: (Int -> Int)?, f2: (String -> String)?)'
we now produce:
error: cannot convert value of type '_ -> Int' to expected argument type '(String -> String)?'
which is a lot closer to what we want to complain about.
code had the effect of squishing the note that printed the overload candidate
set for the operators in question. While these are not generally helpful given
how many overloads we have of (e.g.) the + operator, it doesn't do us any good
to have special cases like this, because methods can have tons of overloads as
well.
call expression onto a callee when it was a binary expression. Doing this
requires improving the diagnostics for when the contextual result type is
incompatible with all candidates, but that is general goodness all around.
This fixes:
<rdar://problem/22333090> QoI: Propagate contextual information in a call to operands
and improves a number of diagnostics where the problem is that an operator
is used in a context that expects a type that it cannot produce.
Swift SVN r31891
automatically pass down TypeCheckExprFlags::AllowUnresolvedTypeVariables
IFF we have no contextual type. This gives us UnresolvedTypes in more cases,
which improves diagnostics in various situations, and also simplifies
CSDiag. The change to misc_diagnostics.swift is a particularly nice progression.
Swift SVN r31406
where we type check the destination first, then apply its type to the source.
This allows us to get diagnostics for assignments that are as good as PBD
initializers and other cases.
Swift SVN r31404
we process contextual constraints when producing diagnostic. Formerly,
we would aggressively drop contextual type information on the floor under
the idea that it would reduce constraints on the system and make it more
likely to be solvable. However, this also has the downside of introducing
ambiguity into the system, and some expr nodes (notably closures) cannot
usually be solved without that contextual information.
In the new model, expr diagnostics are expected to handle the fact that
contextual information may be present, and bail out without diagnosing an
error if that is the case. This gets us more information into closures,
allowing more specific return type information, e.g. in the case in
test/expr/closure/closures.swift.
This approach also produces more correct diagnostics in a bunch of other
cases as well, e.g.:
- var c = [:] // expected-error {{type '[_ : _]' does not conform to protocol 'DictionaryLiteralConvertible'}}
+ var c = [:] // expected-error {{expression type '[_ : _]' is ambiguous without more context}}
and the examples in test/stmt/foreach.swift, test/expr/cast/as_coerce.swift,
test/expr/cast/array_iteration.swift, etc.
That said, this another two steps forward, one back thing. Because we
don't handle propagating sametype constraints from results of calls to their
arguments, we regress a couple of (admittedly weird) cases. This is now
tracked by:
<rdar://problem/22333090> QoI: Propagate contextual information in a call to operands
There is also the one-off narrow case tracked by:
<rdar://problem/22333281> QoI: improve diagnostic when contextual type of closure disagrees with arguments
Swift SVN r31319
diagnoseGeneralConversionFailure() to handle them (instead of it handling as? but
special code handling as!).
As part of this, enhance things so we get error messages about both the problem,
and the overall type involved (when they're different) e.g.:
if let s = setD as? Set<BridgedToObjC> { }
error: 'ObjC' is not a subtype of 'DerivesObjC'
note: in cast from type 'Set<DerivesObjC>' to 'Set<BridgedToObjC>'
This also finally fixes the case in test/Generics/existential_restrictions.swift
Swift SVN r31299
allowing these failures to hook into other diagnostic goodies (e.g. the
"did you mean to use '!' or '?'?" cases showing in the testsuite). That said,
by itself this doesn't have a huge impact, but avoids regressions with other
pending changes.

the regressions that r31105 introduced in the validation tests, as well as fixing a number
of other validation tests as well.
Introduce a new UnresolvedType to the type system, and have CSDiags start to use it
as a way to get more type information out of incorrect subexpressions. UnresolvedType
generally just propagates around the type system like a type variable:
- it magically conforms to all protocols
- it CSGens as an unconstrained type variable.
- it ASTPrints as _, just like a type variable.
The major difference is that UnresolvedType can be used outside the context of a
ConstraintSystem, which is useful for CSGen since it sets up several of them to
diagnose subexpressions w.r.t. their types.
For now, our use of this is extremely limited: when a closureexpr has no contextual
type available and its parameters are invalid, we wipe them out with UnresolvedType
(instead of the previous nulltype dance) to get ambiguities later on.
We also introduce a new FreeTypeVariableBinding::UnresolvedType approach for
constraint solving (and use this only in one place in CSDiags so far, to resolve
the callee of a CallExpr) which solves a system and rewrites any leftover type
variables as UnresolvedTypes. This allows us to get more precise information out,
for example, diagnosing:
func r22162441(lines: [String]) {
lines.map { line in line.fooBar() }
}
with: value of type 'String' has no member 'fooBar'
instead of: type of expression is ambiguous without more context
This improves a number of other diagnostics as well, but is just the infrastructural
stepping stone for greater things.
