They are to become citizens of the same class if we want to allow
output-subscopes (without unnecessary complications like deconstructing and
reconstructing the same structure). And it's reasonable to assume that they
share the same namespace.
With this we should shortly collapse the (internal) ambiguity between
- `subscope.subvar`: access to a variable within a subscope
- `subscope.subfield`: access to a field of the output structure contained in a
subscope variable
With the subscope a variable, these should now become strictly equivalent, so
the plan is that the first could be removed.
- This adds a `catala depends` command that recursively tracks module dependency.
It can then be used by Clerk for linking.
- Generation of cmo object files are added for OCaml (we only built native
objects, but jsoo requires bytecode).
- Some fixes to the generation of value embed/deembed shims (related to types
coming from different modules ; add support for options ; etc.)
Print to json directly rather than depend on yojson and a ppx.
Note: this should be tested with the website in order to validate that the Json
output is 1-to-1.
(a second step could be to simplify this output, now that it's manual)
Through the syntax `var_name state state_name`.
Addresses #567, but
- requires documentation
- explicitely accessing states of the variable being defined is not allowed at
the moment (warning proposed in #567 requires a whole-expression check, which
is better done some place else entirely)
This allows for retyping after monomorphisation: a new function just extracts
the return type of the operator, without checking the operand types.
Also to avoid multiplying function arguments around the typer, the flags have
been gathered in a record that is included in the typing environment; it's ok to
give them default values as long as these are the strictest.
so don't retype after monomorphisation, which is now possible as the pass itself
correctly preserves types.
In time the typer will need a special case to get knowledge of the new types and
modified operator types.
