- Any is made into a keyword which is always resolved into a TypeExpr,
allowing the removal of the type system code to find TheAnyType before
an unconstrained lookup.
- Types called `Any` can be declared, they are looked up as any other
identifier is
- Renaming/redefining behaviour of source loc methods on
ProtocolCompositionTypeRepr. Added a createEmptyComposition static
method too.
- Code highlighting treats Any as a type
- simplifyTypeExpr also does not rely on source to get operator name.
- Any is now handled properly in canParseType() which was causing
generic param lists containing ‘Any’ to fail
- The import objc id as Any work has been relying on getting a decl for
the Any type. I fix up the clang importer to use Context.TheAnyType
(instead of getAnyDecl()->getDeclaredType()). When importing the id
typedef, we create a typealias to Any and declare it unavaliable.
Also adds:
- Any is caught before doing an unconstrained lookup, and the
protocol<> type is emitted
- composition expressions can be handled by
`PreCheckExpression::simplifyTypeExpr` to so you can do lookups like (P
& Q).self
- Fixits corrected & new tests added
- Typeref lowering cases should have been optional
- This fixes a failing test case.
This commit defines the ‘Any’ keyword, implements parsing for composing
types with an infix ‘&’, and provides a fixit to convert ‘protocol<>’
- Updated tests & stdlib for new composition syntax
- Provide errors when compositions used in inheritance.
Any is treated as a contextual keyword. The name ‘Any’
is used emit the empty composition type. We have to
stop user declaring top level types spelled ‘Any’ too.
As proposed in SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer:
Rename 'init(allocatingCapacity:)' to 'UnsafeMutablePointer.allocate(capacity:)'
Rename 'deallocateCapacity' to 'deallocate(capacity:)'
`allocate` should not be an initializer. It's primary function is to allocate
memory, not initialize a pointer.
Allow 'static' (or, in classes, final 'class') operators to be
declared within types and extensions thereof. Within protocols,
require operators to be marked 'static'. Use a warning with a Fix-It
to stage this in, so we don't break the world's code.
Protocol conformance checking already seems to work, so add some tests
for that. Update a pile of tests and the standard library to include
the required 'static' keywords.
There is an amusing name-mangling change here. Global operators were
getting marked as 'static' (for silly reasons), so their mangled names
had the 'Z' modifier for static methods, even though this doesn't make
sense. Now, operators within types and extensions need to be 'static'
as written.
Now we support casting and bridging to/from [Any], not just [AnyObject]
Note that the typechecker still doesn't allow all the casts we'd like;
see the FIXMEs in test/1_stdlib/ArrayBridge.swift.gyb.
