The way nested priorities are encoded use `< < excs | true :- nested > :- x >`,
which imply that `nested` can actually be ∅ ; to cope with this, the typing of
default terms is made more generic (the return type is now the same as the
`cons` type `'a`, rather than `<'a>`). For the general case, we add an explicit
`EPureDefault` node which just encapsulates its argument (a `return`, in monad
terminology).
rather than scattered in structures
The context is still hierarchical for defs though, so one needs to retrieve the
path to lookup in the correct context for info. Exceptions are enums and struct
defs, which are re-exposed at toplevel.
(first working dynload test with compilation done by manual calls to ocaml)
A few pieces of the puzzle:
* Loading of interfaces only from Catala files
* Registration of toplevel values in modules compiled to OCaml, to allow access
using dynlink
* Shady conversion from OCaml runtime values to/from Catala expressions, to
allow interop (ffi) of compiled modules and the interpreter
Two interdependent changes here:
1. Enforce all instances of Shared_ast.gexpr to use the generic type for marks.
This makes the interfaces a tad simpler to manipulate: you now write
`('a, 'm) gexpr` rather than `('a, 'm mark) gexpr`.
2. Define a polymorphic `Custom` mark case for use by pass-specific annotations.
And leverage this in the typing module
The module is renamed to `Mark`, and functions renamed to avoid redundancy:
`Marked.mark` is now `Mark.add`
`Marked.unmark` is now `Mark.remove`
`Marked.map_under_mark` is now simply `Mark.map`
etc.
`Marked.same_mark_as` is replaced by `Mark.copy`, but with the arguments
swapped (which seemed more convenient throughout)
Since a type `Mark.t` would indicate a mark, and to avoid confusion, the type
`Marked.t` is renamed to `Mark.ed` as a shorthand for `Mark.marked` ; this part
can easily be removed if that's too much quirkiness.
A module without mli is ok as long as it only contains types
Here we already stretch it a bit with some functor applications, but having
toplevel values defeats the expectation that you can safely `open` this module.
- Fix the printer for scopes
- Improve the printer for struct types
- Remove `Print.expr'`. Use `Expr.format` as the function with simplified arguments instead.
- `Print.expr` no longer needs the context
- This removes the need for `expr ~debug` + `expr_debug` ;
use `Print.expr` for normal (non-debug) output,
and `Print.expr' ?debug ()` for possibly debug output.
- This improves consistency of debug expr output in many places
- Prints simplified operators (without type suffix) in non-verbose mode
(this patch also fixes some cases of `Expr.skip_wrappers` and leverages the
binder equality provided by Bindlib)
