This was the only reasonable solution I found to the issue raised [here](https://github.com/CatalaLang/catala/pull/334#discussion_r987175884). This was a pretty tedious rewrite, but it should now ensure we are doing things correctly. As a bonus, the "smart" expression constructors are now used everywhere to build expressions (so another refactoring like this one should be much easier) and this makes the code overall feel more straightforward (`Bindlib.box_apply` or `let+` no longer need to be visible!) --- Basically, we were using values of type `gexpr box = naked_gexpr marked box` throughout when (re-)building expressions. This was done 99% of the time by using `Bindlib.box_apply add_mark naked_e` right after building `naked_e`. In lots of places, we needed to recover the annotation of this expression later on, typically to build its parent term (to inherit the position, or build the type). Since it wasn't always possible to wrap these uses within `box_apply` (esp. as bindlib boxes aren't a monad), here and there we had to call `Bindlib.unbox`, just to recover the position or type. This had the very unpleasant effect of forcing the resolution of the whole box (including applying any stored closures) to reach the top-level annotation which isn't even dependant on specific variable bindings. Then, generally, throwing away the result. Therefore, the change proposed here transforms - `naked_gexpr marked Bindlib.box` into - `naked_gexpr Bindlib.box marked` (aliased to `boxed_gexpr` or `gexpr boxed` for convenience) This means only 1. not fitting the mark into the box right away when building, and 2. accessing the top-level mark directly without unboxing The functions for building terms from module `Shared_ast.Expr` could be changed easily. But then they needed to be consistently used throughout, without manually building terms through `Bindlib.apply_box` -- which covers most of the changes in this patch. `Expr.Box.inj` is provided to swap back to a box, before binding for example. Additionally, this gives a 40% speedup on `make -C examples pass_all_tests`, which hints at the amount of unnecessary work we were doing --' |
