For example: /// /// \code /// protocol P { /// func f() /// } /// /// struct X : P { /// func f() { } /// } /// \endcode /// /// Here, the function `X.f()` is the witness for the requirement `P.f()`. /// /// The relationship between a requirement and its witness is more detailed /// than the declaration of the witness, particularly when the requirement /// is itself generic. Consider this more-involved example: /// /// \code /// protocol P { /// associatedtype A /// } /// /// protocol Q : P { } /// /// protocol R { /// associatedtype B /// func foo(x: T) where T.A == B /// } /// /// struct X : R { /// typealias B = U /// /// func foo(x: W) where W.A == U { } /// } /// \endcode /// /// The witness for \c R.foo(x:) is \c X.foo(x:), but the generic /// functions that describe the generic requirement in \c R and the generic /// method in \c X have very different signatures. To handle this case, the /// \c Witness class produces a "synthetic" environment that pulls together /// all of the information needed to map from the requirement to the witness. /// It is a generic environment that combines the constraints of the /// requirement with the constraints from the context of the protocol /// conformance itself, which is the environment needed to build the witness /// "thunk" in SILGen.
