Introduce an algorithm to canonicalize and minimize same-type
constraints. The algorithm itself computes the equivalence classes
that would exist if all explicitly-provided same-type constraints are
ignored, and then forms a minimal, canonical set of explicit same-type
constraints to reform the actual equivalence class known to the type
checker. This should eliminate a number of problems we've seen with
inconsistently-chosen same-type constraints affecting
canonicalization.
When enumerating requirements, always use the archetype anchors to
express requirements. Unlike "representatives", which are simply there
to maintain the union-find data structure used to track equivalence
classes of potential archetypes, archetype anchors are the
ABI-stable canonical types within a fully-formed generic signature.
The test case churn comes from two places. First, while
representatives are *often* the same as the archetype anchors, they
aren't *always* the same. Where they differ, we'll see a change in
both the printed generic signature and, therefore, it's
mangling.
Additionally, requirement inference now takes much greater
care to make sure that the first types in the requirement follow
archetype anchor ordering, so actual conformance requirements occur in
the requirement list at the archetype anchor---not at the first type
that is equivalent to the anchor---which permits the simplification in
IRGen's emission of polymorphic arguments.
In the constraint solver, we've traditionally modeled nested type via
a "type member" constraint of the form
$T1 = $T0.NameOfTypeMember
and treated $T1 as a type variable. While the solver did generally try
to avoid attempting bindings for $T1 (it would wait until $T0 was
bound, which solves the constraint), on occasion we would get weird
behavior because the solver did try to bind the type
variable.
With this commit, model nested types via DependentMemberType, the same
way we handle (e.g.) the nested type of a generic type parameter. This
solution maintains more information (e.g., we know specifically which
associated type we're referring to), fits in better with the type
system (we know how to deal with dependent members throughout the type
checker, AST, and so on), and is easier to reason able.
This change is a performance optimization for the type checker for a
few reasons. First, it reduces the number of type variables we need to
deal with significantly (we create half as many type variables while
type checking the standard library), and the solver scales poorly with
the number of type variables because it visits all of the
as-yet-unbound type variables at each solving step. Second, it
eliminates a number of redundant by-name lookups in cases where we
already know which associated type we want.
Overall, this change provides a 25% speedup when type-checking the
standard library.
In most places where we were checking "is<ErrorType>()", we now mean
"any error occurred". The few exceptions are in associated type
inference, code completion, and expression diagnostics, where we might
still work with partial errors.
This fixes several issues:
- By default parent types of alias types are not printed which results in
- Erroneous fixits, for example when casting to 'Notification.Name' from a string, which ends up adding erroneous cast
as "Name(rawValue: ...)"
- Hard to understand types in code-completion results and diagnostics
- When printing with 'fully-qualified' option typealias types are printed erroneously like this "<PARENT>.Type.<TYPEALIAS>"
The change make typealias printing same as nominal types and addresses the above.
What I've implemented here deviates from the current proposal text
in the following ways:
- I had to introduce a FunctionArrowPrecedence to capture the parsing
of -> in expression contexts.
- I found it convenient to continue to model the assignment property
explicitly.
- The comparison and casting operators have historically been
non-associative; I have chosen to preserve that, since I don't
think this proposal intended to change it.
- This uses the precedence group names and higherThan/lowerThan
as agreed in discussion.
and provide a fix-it to move it to the new location as referenced
in SE-0081.
Fix up a few stray places in the standard library that is still using
the old syntax.
Update any ./test files that aren't expecting the new warning/fix-it
in -verify mode.
While investigating what I thought was a new crash due to this new
diagnostic, I discovered two sources of quite a few compiler crashers
related to unterminated generic parameter lists, where the right
angle bracket source location was getting unconditionally set to
the current token, even though it wasn't actually a '>'.
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.
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.
Consider this code:
struct A<T> {
struct B {}
struct C<U> {}
}
Previously:
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.B' would give 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.B' would give 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.C' would give 'A<T>.C'
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.C' would give 'A<T>.C<U>'
This was causing problems for nested generics. Now, with this change,
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.B' gives 'A.B' (*)
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.B' gives 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.C' gives 'A.C' (*)
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.C' gives 'A<T>.C<U>'
(Differences marked with (*)).
Also, this change makes these accessors fully lazy. Previously,
only getDeclaredTypeInContext() and getDeclaredIterfaceType()
were lazy, whereas getDeclaredType() was built from validateDecl().
Fix a few spots where the return value wasn't being checked
properly.
These functions return ErrorType if a circularity was detected via
the generic parameter list, or if the extension did not resolve.
They return Type() if the extension cannot be resolved *yet*.
This is pretty subtle, and I'll need to do another pass over
callers of these functions at some point. Many of them should be
moved over to use getSelfInContext(), getSelfOfContext() and
getSelfInterfaceType() instead.
Finally, this patch consolidates logic for diagnosting invalid
nesting of types.
The parser had some code for protocols in bad places and bad things
inside protocols, and Sema had several different bail-outs for
bad things in protocols, nested generic types, and stuff nested
inside protocol extensions.
Combine all of these into a single set of checks in Sema. Note
that we no longer give up early if we find invalid nesting.
Leaving decls unvalidated and un-type-checked only leads to
further problems. Now that all the preliminary crap has been
fixed, we can go ahead and start validating these funny nested
decls, actually fixing some crashers in the process.
along with recent policy changes:
- For expression types that are not specifically handled, make sure to
produce a general "unused value" warning, catching a bunch of unused
values in the testsuite.
- For unused operator results, diagnose them as uses of the operator
instead of "calls".
- For calls, mutter the type of the result for greater specificity.
- For initializers, mutter the type of the initialized value.
- Look through OpenExistentialExpr's so we can handle protocol member
references propertly.
- Look through several other expressions so we handle @discardableResult
better.
a generic function type during constraint solving, as opposed to
checking a bunch of implicit things that we already know. This
should significantly improve the efficiency of checking uses of
generic APIs by reducing the total number of type variables and
constraints.
It is becoming increasingly funny to refer to this minimized generic
signature as the "mangling" signature.
The test changes are kind of a wash: in one case, we've eliminated
a confusing extra error, but in another we've caused the confusing
extra error to refer to '<<error type>>'. Not worth fighting right
now. The reference-dependencies change is due to not needing to
pull in all of those associated types anymore, which seems correct.
Split up parsing of typealias and associatedtype, including dropping a
now unneeded ParseDeclOptions flag.
Then made typealias in a protocol valid, and act like you would
hope for protocol conformance purposes (i.e. as an alias possibly
involved in the types of other func/var conformances, not as a hidden
generic param in itself).
Also added support for simple type aliases in generic constraints. Aliases
to simple (non-sugared) archetype types (and also - trivially - aliases to
concrete types) can now be part of same-type constraints.
The strategy here is to add type aliases to the tree of
PotentialArchetypes, and if they are an alias to an archetype, also to
immediately find the real associated type and set it as the
representative for the PA. Thus the typealias PA node becomes just a
shortcut farther down into the tree for purposes of lookup and
generating same type requirements.
Then the typealias PA nodes need to be explicitly skipped when walking
the tree for building archetype types and other types of requirements,
in order to keep from getting extra out-of-order archetypes/witness
markers of the real associated type inserted where the typealias is
defined.
Any constraint with a typealias more complex than pointing to a single
nested associated type (e.g. `typealias T = A.B.C.D`), will now get a
specialized diagnoses.
Parse 'var [behavior] x: T', and when we see it, try to instantiate the property's
implementation in terms of the given behavior. To start out, behaviors are modeled
as protocols. If the protocol follows this pattern:
```
protocol behavior {
associatedtype Value
}
extension behavior {
var value: Value { ... }
}
```
then the property is instantiated by forming a conformance to `behavior` where
`Self` is bound to the enclosing type and `Value` is bound to the property's
declared type, and invoking the accessors of the `value` implementation:
```
struct Foo {
var [behavior] foo: Int
}
/* behaves like */
extension Foo: private behavior {
@implements(behavior.Value)
private typealias `[behavior].Value` = Int
var foo: Int {
get { return value }
set { value = newValue }
}
}
```
If the protocol requires a `storage` member, and provides an `initStorage` method
to provide an initial value to the storage:
```
protocol storageBehavior {
associatedtype Value
var storage: Something<Value> { ... }
}
extension storageBehavior {
var value: Value { ... }
static func initStorage() -> Something<Value> { ... }
}
```
then a stored property of the appropriate type is instantiated to witness the
requirement, using `initStorage` to initialize:
```
struct Foo {
var [storageBehavior] foo: Int
}
/* behaves like */
extension Foo: private storageBehavior {
@implements(storageBehavior.Value)
private typealias `[storageBehavior].Value` = Int
@implements(storageBehavior.storage)
private var `[storageBehavior].storage`: Something<Int> = initStorage()
var foo: Int {
get { return value }
set { value = newValue }
}
}
```
In either case, the `value` and `storage` properties should support any combination
of get-only/settable and mutating/nonmutating modifiers. The instantiated property
follows the settability and mutating-ness of the `value` implementation. The
protocol can also impose requirements on the `Self` and `Value` types.
Bells and whistles such as initializer expressions, accessors,
out-of-line initialization, etc. are not implemented. Additionally, behaviors
that instantiate storage are currently only supported on instance properties.
This also hasn't been tested past sema yet; SIL and IRGen will likely expose
additional issues.
class or struct conforming to a protocol. Now we produce a single error
with a fixit hint (rewriting to typealias). Before we produced:
t.swift:7:3: error: associated types can only be defined in a protocol; define a type or introduce a 'typealias' to satisfy an associated type requirement
associatedtype T = Int
^
t.swift:7:17: error: consecutive declarations on a line must be separated by ';'
associatedtype T = Int
^
;
t.swift:7:18: error: expected declaration
associatedtype T = Int
^
t.swift:6:7: error: type 'C' does not conform to protocol 'P'
class C : P {
^
t.swift:3:18: note: protocol requires nested type 'T'
associatedtype T
^
Adds an associatedtype keyword to the parser tokens, and accepts either
typealias or associatedtype to create an AssociatedTypeDecl, warning
that the former is deprecated. The ASTPrinter now emits associatedtype
for AssociatedTypeDecls.
Separated AssociatedType from TypeAlias as two different kinds of
CodeCompletionDeclKinds. This part probably doesn’t turn out to be
absolutely necessary currently, but it is nice cleanup from formerly
specifically glomming the two together.
And then many, many changes to tests. The actual new tests for the fixits
is at the end of Generics/associated_types.swift.
member lookup for subscript instead of digging already-looked-up candidates
out of the constraint system. This allows us to produce more specific
diagnostics in failure cases and keeps subscripts inline with other decls
being looked up.

argument list mismatches, and diagnose them with a very specific error when
they occur in member lookups. This fixes
<rdar://problem/22356434> QoI: Missing diagnostic for invalid arguments passed to enum case constructor
where before we'd produce:
ee.swift:5:16: error: type of expression is ambiguous without more context
let list: E = .C(wrongLabel: 0)
~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
now we produce:
ee.swift:1:17: error: incorrect argument label in call (have 'wrongLabel:', expected 'label:')
let list: E = .C(wrongLabel: 0)
^~~~~~~~~~~

I think that unresolved member exprs now get good diagnostics in all cases that they have
a contextual type, but of course there are lots more cases where we're not getting a
contextual type.

and diagnoseGeneralConversionFailure(). The previous approach of trying
to dig into anchors would often lead to complaining about types at
different levels in the same diagnostic, and the complexity of the former
code isn't needed now that other changes have landed.

"unavoidable failure" path, along with Failure::DoesNotHaveNonMutatingMember and
just doing some basic disambiguation in CSDiags.
This provides some benefits:
- Allows us to plug in much more specific diagnostics for the existing "only has
mutating members" diagnostic, including producing notes for why the base expr
isn't mutable (see e.g. test/Sema/immutability.swift diffs).
- Corrects issues where we'd drop full decl name info for selector references.
- Wordsmiths diagnostics to not complain about "values of type Foo.Type" instead
complaining about "type Foo"
- Where before we would diagnose all failures with "has no member named", we now
distinguish between when there is no member, and when you can't use it. When you
can't use it, you get a vauge "cannot use it" diagnostic, but...
- This provides an infrastructure for diagnosing other kinds of problems (e.g.
trying to use a private member or a static member from an instance).
- Improves a number of cases where failed type member constraints would produce uglier
diagnostics than a different constraint failure would.
- Resolves a number of rdars, e.g. (and probably others):

- Improve handling of if_expr in a couple of ways: teach constraint simplification
about IfThen/IfElse and teach CSDiags about the case when the cond expr doesn't match
BooleanType. This is rarely necessary, but CSDiags is all about cornercases, and this
does fix a problem in a testcase.
- Be a bit more specific about the constraint failure kind (e.g. say subtype) and when
we have a protocol conformance failure, emit a specific diagnostic about it, instead of
just saying that the types aren't convertible.

conversion failures, making a bunch of diagnostics more specific and useful.
UnavoidableFailures can be very helpful, but they can also be the first constraint
failure that the system happened to come across... which is not always the most
meaningful one. CSDiag's expr processing machinery has a generally better way of
narrowing down which ones make the most sense.

Eliminates _CollectionDefaultsType and _CollectionGeneratorDefaultsType
