Most of the fields in an AST item were present in all variants. Things
could be simplified considerably by putting them in the rec rather
than in the variant tags.
I added a "resolved" version of the ast::constr type -- ty::constr_def
-- that has a def_id field instead of an ann_field. This is more
consistent with other types and eliminates some checking.
Incidentally, I removed the def_map argument to the top-level function
in middle::alias, since the ty::ctxt already has a def_map field.
Since the decl in a for or for-each loop must always be a local
decl, I changed the AST to express this. Fewer potential match
failures and "the impossible happened" error messages = yay!
Generate appropriate constraints for calls to functions with
preconditions, and reject calls where those constraints don't
hold true in the prestate.
...by which I mean that it works for one test case :-)
A non-returning call should have a postcondition in which all predicates
are true -- not just a poststate. Otherwise, alt expressions where
one or more branches terminate in a non-returning call and others
initialize a variable get rejected.
Includes a test case.
* Reorganized typestate into several modules.
* Made typestate check that any function with a non-nil return type
returns a value. For now, the check is a warning and not an error
(see next item).
* Added a "bot" type (prettyprinted as _|_), for constructs like be, ret, break, cont, and
fail that don't locally return a value that can be inspected. "bot"
is distinct from "nil". There is no concrete syntax for _|_, while
the concrete syntax for the nil type is ().
* Added support to the parser for a ! annotation on functions whose
result type is _|_. Such a function is required to have either a
fail or a call to another ! function that is reached in all control
flow paths. The point of this annotation is to mark functions like
unimpl() and span_err(), so that an alt with a call to err() in one
case isn't a false positive for the return-value checker. I haven't
actually annotated anything with it yet.
* Random bugfixes:
* * Fixed bug in trans::trans_binary that was throwing away the
cleanups for nested subexpressions of an and or or
(tests: box-inside-if and box-inside-if2).
** In typeck, unify the expected type arguments of a tag with the
actual specified arguments.
