Typeck and trans used to, by historical coincidence, use the item_obj
node id, which was used to identify the obj type by the rest of the
system, for the constructor function. This is now identified by the
ctor id stored in the tag throughout.
If you use a function expecting an alias argument in a context that
expects a function expecting a value argument, or vice versa, the
previous error message complained that the number of arguments was
wrong. Fixed the error message to be accurate.
typestate now drops constraints correctly in the post-state of
a move expression or a declaration whose op is a move. It doesn't
yet drop constraints mentioning variables that get updated.
To do this, I had to change typestate to use trit-vectors instead
of bit-vectors, because for every constraint, there are three
possible values: known-to-be-false (e.g. after x <- y, init(y) is
known-to-be-false), known-to-be-true, and unknown. Before, we
conflated known-to-be-false with unknown. But move requires them
to be treated differently. Consider:
(program a)
(a1) x = 1;
(a2) y <- x;
(a3) log x;
(program b)
(b1) x = 1;
(b2) y <- z;
(b3) log x;
With only two values, the postcondition of statement a2 for
constraint init(x) is the same as that of b2: 0. But in (a2)'s
postcondition, init(x) *must* be false, but in (b2)'s condition,
it's just whatever it was in the postcondition of the preceding statement.
This code was causing a bounds check failure:
fn hd[U](&vec[U] v) -> U {
fn hd1(&vec[U] w) -> U {
ret w.(0);
}
ret hd1(v);
}
because in hd1, U was being treated as if it referred to a type
parameter of hd1, rather than referring to the lexically enclosing binding
for U that's part of hd.
I'm actually not sure whether this is a legit program or not. But I wanted
to get rid of the bounds check error, so I assumed that program shouldn't
compile and made it a proper error message.
This involved, in part, changing the ast::def type so that a def_fn
has a "purity" field. This lets the typechecker determine whether
functions defined in other crates are pure.
It also required updating some error messages in tests. As a test
for cross-crate constrained functions, I added a safe_slice function
to std::str (slice(), with one of the asserts replaced with a
function precondition) and some test cases (various versions of
fn-constraint.rs) that call it. Also, I changed "fn" to "pred" for
some of the boolean functions in std::uint.
This will replace the various node_id-to-node mappings done in several
other passes. This commit already uses the new map in resolve, dropping
the ast_map that was built there before.
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.

With the changing of receive semantics the parser has been putting the rhs
expression in the first argument of expr_recv and the lhs in the second, and
all subsequent passes have been referring to them backwords (but still doing
the right thing because they were assuming that lhs was the port and rhs was
the receiver).
This makes all code agree on what lhs and rhs mean for receive expressions.
I noticed that typestate was being lazier than it should be,
because it was only checking typestate for statements and
top-level expression (that is, the expression in a stmt_expr, but
not any subexpressions). So I rewrote the checks in tstate/ck.rs
to use walk, which exposed a few bugs in typestate that I fixed.
Also added some more test cases for if-check.
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.
