Make all glue functions take values by alias to remove the need for
bitcasts at the top of every glue function. Use static type
information to produce the correct type for glue functions so that
LLVM can enforce the type system at call sites.
We can't throw an exception from inside a landing pad without
corrupting the exception handler, so we have no hope of dealing with
these exceptions anyway. See:
http://llvm.org/docs/ExceptionHandling.html#cleanups
Part of #2861.
This means GEPi now takes a list of uints. Apologies in advance
if this is hard to rebase against, but it gets rid of many a cast :-)
Also modernized some for loops here and there.
get_with_default (nee from_maybe) => get_default
with_option (nee maybe) => map_default
with_option_do (nee may) => iter
As per discussion of 21be1379d5
from_maybe => get_with_default
maybe => with_option
may => with_option_do
I know these names are kind of ridiculous, but it's the best I could think of.
Feel free to bikeshed. Closes#2081
The code is somewhat invasive, but it seems hard to do this in a
clean way, since the design itself involves a bunch of 'action
at a distance'.
Issue #1819
The last argument of the call must be a block, and the type of this
argument must a function returning bool. `break` and `cont` are
supported in the body of the block, and return `false` or `true` from
the function. When the end of the function is reached, `true` is
implicitly returned.
for vec::all([1, 2, 3]) {|elt|
if elt == 2 { break; }
log(error, elt);
}
Issue #1619
This change uses the same code for handling the "self" reference for
classes as is already used for impls/ifaces. This allows removing the
extra maybe_self_id argument (which was just for classes) to trans_closure
that I added before. I also rewrote the translation for class ctors so
that it doesn't generate new AST nodes (instead translating directly).
Also changed visit so that it visits class ctors correctly with visit_fn,
and changed typestate to not do return-checking when visiting a class ctor.
