The goal here is to make the short demangling as short and readable as possible, also at the cost of omitting some information.
The assumption is that whenever the short demangling is displayed, there is a way for the user to also get the full demangled name if needed.
*) omit <where ...> because it does not give useful information anyway
Deserializer.deserialize<A where ...> () throws -> [A]
--> Deserializer.deserialize<A> () throws -> [A]
*) for multiple specialized functions only emit a single “specialized”
specialized specialized Constructible.create(A.Element) -> Constructible<A>
--> specialized Constructible.create(A.Element) -> Constructible<A>
*) Don’t print function argument types:
foo(Int, Double, named: Int)
--> foo(_:_:named:)
This is a trade-off, because it can lead to ambiguity if there are overloads with different types.
*) make contexts of closures, local functions, etc. more readable by using “<a> in <b>” syntax
This is also done for the full and not only for the simplified demangling.
Renderer.(renderInlines([Inline]) -> String).(closure #1)
--> closure #1 in Renderer.renderInlines
*) change spacing, so that it matches our coding style:
foo <A> (x : A)
--> foo<A>(x: A)
If a closure captures the dynamic 'Self' type, but no value of type 'Self'
(for example, it is possible to have a weak capture of 'self'; if the weak
reference becomes nil, there's no way for the closure to get the dynamic
'Self' type from the value).
In this case, add a hidden argument of type $Self.Type, and pass in the
Self metatype.
Fixes <https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-1558> / <rdar://problem/22299905>.
For long names this is easier to read and in most cases the omitted information can be seen in the actual SIL code.
With the option -Xllvm -sil-full-demangle the old behavior can be restored.
