swift-remoteast-test uses the JIT to execute code in its own process.
Even if we theoretically taught the interpreter to perform some sort
of remote interpretation, that would not be sufficient to make
swift-remoteast-test work. Therefore I've introduced a new lit
feature check specifically for swift-remoteast-test, but set it by
default to be equivalent to swift_interpreter.
- All parts of the compiler now use ‘P1 & P2’ syntax
- The demangler and AST printer wrap the composition in parens if it is
in a metatype lookup
- IRGen mangles compositions differently
- “protocol<>” is now “swift.Any”
- “protocol<_TP1P,_TP1Q>” is now “_TP1P&_TP1Q”
- Tests cases are updated and added to test the new syntax and mangling
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.
properties of classes with generic layouts.
Previously we were falling back on accessing them via the field
offset vector even when we knew everything about the type.
As a minor benefit, this allows RemoteAST to also determine offsets
for members of classes with generic layout.
Half of the test changes are IR type-name uniquing; I'm going to
explore mangling these with the full type where possible.
The metadata system doesn't actually unique based on labels
correctly, so the test case has to play some games. That's
something that will be easier to fix when there are fewer
clients poking at the internals of the metadata runtime.
just the address. Use this to avoid repeatedly reading metadata so
often (even if it's cached, this is better). Fix some bugs involving
nominal type parents.
