With `-enable-experimental-string-processing`,
start lexing `'` delimiters as regex literals (this
is just a placeholder delimiter for now). The
contents of which gets passed to the libswift
library, which can return an error string to be
emitted, or null for success.
The libswift side isn't yet hooked up to the Swift
regex parser, so for now just emit a dummy
diagnostic for regexes starting with quantifiers.
If successful, build an AST node which will be
emitted as an implicit call to an
`init(_regexString:)` initializer of an in-scope
`Regex` decl (which will eventually be a known
stdlib decl).
This attribute allows to define a pre-specialized entry point of a
generic function in a library.
The following definition provides a pre-specialized entry point for
`genericFunc(_:)` for the parameter type `Int` that clients of the
library can call.
```
@_specialize(exported: true, where T == Int)
public func genericFunc<T>(_ t: T) { ... }
```
Pre-specializations of internal `@inlinable` functions are allowed.
```
@usableFromInline
internal struct GenericThing<T> {
@_specialize(exported: true, where T == Int)
@inlinable
internal func genericMethod(_ t: T) {
}
}
```
There is syntax to pre-specialize a method from a different module.
```
import ModuleDefiningGenericFunc
@_specialize(exported: true, target: genericFunc(_:), where T == Double)
func prespecialize_genericFunc(_ t: T) { fatalError("dont call") }
```
Specially marked extensions allow for pre-specialization of internal
methods accross module boundries (respecting `@inlinable` and
`@usableFromInline`).
```
import ModuleDefiningGenericThing
public struct Something {}
@_specializeExtension
extension GenericThing {
@_specialize(exported: true, target: genericMethod(_:), where T == Something)
func prespecialize_genericMethod(_ t: T) { fatalError("dont call") }
}
```

Similar to `try`, await expressions have no specific semantics of their
own except to indicate that the subexpression contains calls to `async`
functions, which are suspension points. In this design, there can be
multiple such calls within the subexpression of a given `await`.
Note that we currently use the keyword `__await` because `await` in
this position introduces grammatical ambiguities. We'll wait until
later to sort out the specific grammar we want and evaluate
source-compatibility tradeoffs. It's possible that this kind of prefix
operator isn't what we want anyway.
Like switch cases, a catch clause may now include a comma-
separated list of patterns. The body will be executed if any
one of those patterns is matched.
This patch replaces `CatchStmt` with `CaseStmt` as the children
of `DoCatchStmt` in the AST. This necessitates a number of changes
throughout the compiler, including:
- Parser & libsyntax support for the new syntax and AST structure
- Typechecking of multi-pattern catches, including those which
contain bindings.
- SILGen support
- Code completion updates
- Profiler updates
- Name lookup changes
The `@transpose(of:)` attribute registers a function as a transpose of another
function. This patch adds the `@transpose(of:)` attribute definition, syntax,
parsing, and printing.
Resolves TF-827.
Todos:
- Type-checking (TF-830, TF-1060).
- Enable serialization (TF-838).
- Use module-qualified names instead of custom qualified name syntax/parsing
(TF-1066).
The `@derivative(of:)` attribute registers a function as a derivative of another
function. This patch adds the `@derivative(of:)` attribute definition, syntax,
parsing, and printing.
Resolves TF-826.
Todos:
- Type-checking (TF-829).
- Serialization (TF-837).
This PR introduces `@differentiable` attribute to mark functions as differentiable. This PR only contains changes related to parsing the attribute. Type checking and other changes will be added in subsequent patches.
See https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/27506/files#diff-f3216f4188fd5ed34e1007e5a9c2490f for examples and tests for the new attribute.
`#assert` is a new static assertion statement that will let us write
tests for the new constant evaluation infrastructure that we are working
on. `#assert` works by lowering to a `Builtin.poundAssert` SIL
instruction. The constant evaluation infrastructure will look for these
SIL instructions, const-evaluate their conditions, and emit errors if
the conditions are non-constant or false.
This commit implements parsing, typechecking and SILGen for `#assert`.
Dynamic replacements are currently written in extensions as
extension ExtendedType {
@_dynamicReplacement(for: replacedFun())
func replacement() { }
}
The runtime implementation allows an implementation in the future where
dynamic replacements are gather in a scope and can be dynamically
enabled and disabled.
For example:
dynamic_extension_scope CollectionOfReplacements {
extension ExtentedType {
func replacedFun() {}
}
extension ExtentedType2 {
func replacedFun() {}
}
}
CollectionOfReplacements.enable()
CollectionOfReplacements.disable()
