I tried to pay attention to what was actually being tested so, e.g. when I
test was just using a vec as a boxed thing, I converted to boxed ints, etc.
Haven't converted the macro tests yet. Not sure what to do there.
Previously, typestate was initializing the init constraint for
a declared-but-not-initialized variable (like x in "let x;") to False,
but other constraints to Don't-know. This led to over-lenient results
when a variable was used before declaration (see the included test
case). Now, everything gets initialized to False in the prestate/poststate-
finding phase, and Don't-know should only be used in pre/postconditions.
This aspect of the algorithm really needs formalization (just on paper),
but for now, this closes#700
In the writeback phase, the typechecker now checks that it isn't
replacing a type variable T with a type that contains T. It
also does an occurs check in do_autoderef in order to avoid
getting into an infinite chain of derefs.
I'm a bit worried that there are more places where the occurs
check needs to happen where I'm not doing it now, though.
Closes#768
While it is still technically possible to test stage 0, it is not part of any
of the main testing rules and maintaining xfail-stage0 is a chore. Nobody
should worry about how tests fare in stage0.
The logic for how the "returns" constraint was handled was always
dodgy, for reasons explained in the comments I added to
auxiliary::fn_info in this commit. Fixed it by adding distinct
"returns" and "diverges" constraints for each function, which
are both handled positively (that is: for a ! function, the
"diverges" constraint must be true on every exit path; for
any other function, the "returns" constraint must be true
on every exit path).
Closes#779
This was previously disallowed by the typechecker and not properly handled
in trans. I removed the typechecker check (replacing it with a simpler
check that spawned functions don't have type params) and fixed trans.
Closes#756.
This replaces the make-based test runner with a set of Rust-based test
runners. I believe that all existing functionality has been
preserved. The primary objective is to dogfood the Rust test
framework.
A few main things happen here:
1) The run-pass/lib-* tests are all moved into src/test/stdtest. This
is a standalone test crate intended for all standard library tests. It
compiles to build/test/stdtest.stageN.
2) rustc now compiles into yet another build artifact, this one a test
runner that runs any tests contained directly in the rustc crate. This
allows much more fine-grained unit testing of the compiler. It
compiles to build/test/rustctest.stageN.
3) There is a new custom test runner crate at src/test/compiletest
that reproduces all the functionality for running the compile-fail,
run-fail, run-pass and bench tests while integrating with Rust's test
framework. It compiles to build/test/compiletest.stageN.
4) The build rules have been completely changed to use the new test
runners, while also being less redundant, following the example of the
recent stageN.mk rewrite.
It adds two new features to the cfail/rfail/rpass/bench tests:
1) Tests can specify multiple 'error-pattern' directives which must be
satisfied in order.
2) Tests can specify a 'compile-flags' directive which will make the
test runner provide additional command line arguments to rustc.
There are some downsides, the primary being that Rust has to be
functioning pretty well just to run _any_ tests, which I imagine will
be the source of some frustration when the entire test suite
breaks. Will also cause some headaches during porting.
Not having individual make rules, each rpass, etc test no longer
remembers between runs whether it completed successfully. As a result,
it's not possible to incrementally fix multiple tests by just running
'make check', fixing a test, and repeating without re-running all the
tests contained in the test runner. Instead you can filter just the
tests you want to run by using the TESTNAME environment variable.
This also dispenses with the ability to run stage0 tests, but they
tended to be broken more often than not anyway.
Programs with constrained types now parse and typecheck, but
typestate doesn't check them specially, so the one relevant test
case so far is XFAILed.
Also rewrote all of the constraint-related data structures in the
process (again), for some reason. I got rid of a superfluous
data structure in the context that was mapping front-end constraints
to resolved constraints, instead handling constraints in the same
way in which everything else gets resolved.
Capturing a type argument in the enclosing scope should be an error --
this commit implements that check in resolve, avoiding a potential
assertion failure in trans.
Closes#648.
Typestate was failing to check some code because if it saw an item,
it would quit immediately. This was to avoid checking nested items
in the same context as the lexically enclosing item, but it was
having the wrong effect: not checking the code after the item at all.
Fixed by switching to visit and skipping over items in a proper
nested fashion. Closes#668.
A check in trans didn't have a corresponding check in typeck, causing
some programs (to wit, compile-fail/chan-parameterized-args.rs - part of this
commit) to fail with an assertion failure in trans instead of a type error.
Fixed it. In short, arguments that are future thunk arguments (any spawn
arguments, and _ arguments in bind) need to either not contain type params
or type vars, or be by-reference.
Closes#665.
You can now say
expr_move(?dst, ?src) | expr_assign(?dst, ?src) { ... }
to match both expr_move and expr_assign. The names, types, and number
of bound names have to match in all the patterns.
Closes#449.
