Non-copyability is not enforced yet, and something is still flaky with
dropping of the internal value, so don't actually use them yet. I'm
merging this in so that I don't have to keep merging against new
patches.
This reduces some redundancy in the AST data structures and cruft in
the code that works with them. To get a def_id from a node_id, apply
ast::local_def, which adds the local crate_num to the given node_id.
Most code only deals with crate-local node_ids, and won't have to
create def_ids at all.
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.
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 :-)
Changed function types to include a list of constraints. Added
code for parsing and pretty-printing constraints. This necessitated
splitting pprust into two files (pprust and ppaux) to break a
circulate dependency, as ty_to_str now needs to print out constraints,
which may include literals, but pprust depended on ty.
Change ty_fn to have a controlflow field. A 'controlflow' is
essentially a bit of data that says whether or not this function
never returns to the caller (if it never returns, that means it calls
"fail" or another "never-returns" function on every control path).
Also add syntax for annotating functions that never return:
fn foo() -> ! {
fail;
}
for example. Functions marked with ! implicitly have a result type of
ty_bot, which is a new type that this commit also adds.
* 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.
One step closer to removing fold and having a single, immutable AST.
Resolve still uses fold, because it has to detect and transform
expr_field expressions. If we go through on our plan of moving to a
different syntax for module dereferencing, the parser can spit out
expr_field expressions, and resolve can move to walk.
(I am truly sorry for the things I did in typestate_check.rs. I expect
we'll want to change that to walk as well in the near future, at which
point it should probably pass around a context record, which could
hold the def_map.)
