If we have lots of delayed elaborators, and more than one fails, we need
to print the name ambiguity error first since that is the most likely
cause of any other errors.
'case' goes first, because it might help resolve ambiguities. Ideally
we'd keep retrying delayed elaborators until they work, but that's going
to get slow...
- Add support for .lidr files.
- Add new Parse Error for Literate fails.
- Add support for Case Split.
- Add support for Add Clause.
- Add support for Add Lemma.
- Add tests.
This is needed for consistency with the self hosted version (where the
names aren't even available at that point - so it turns out we learn
something from erasability :))
We can work out what it should be since each case is supposed to have
the same type, so we can look ahead to the alternatives. This way, we
don't have to rely on the scrutinee alone to calculate the type of the
case block. (Idris 1 does this too but I've only just encountered the
need for it in Idris 2 now!)
Sorry for the less than informative title :). Lots going on here. It
started as an attempt to fix unification to deal with laziness coercions
in trickier places, but unearthed a couple of tricky and interconnected
issues that are hard to unpick into a single patch. So, this fixes a few
things:
- default hints should only be resolved on the current elaboration (e.g.
nested function definitions, not the outer definition which might not
yet be complete)
- delayed elaborators should be allowed to have nested delayed
elaborators, which means disambiguation is a little bit better
- we should delay elaborating arguments where the type isn't known yet,
because later arguments may resolve the type, and we can use this to
help with disambiguation/laziness coercions
- other bits and pieces arising
Lots of time is taken in finding the definitions to compile, mostly
because the definition itself needs to be decoded from the binary format
in the ttc, but we can at least make the rest of the process fast.
Inlining takes a while - we could improve this later by inlining as we
go, per file, rather than doing it just before compilation.
When we're checking if a definition is a hole and needs updating, when
loading ttc, the names might not fully resolved yet, so don't decode the
definition.
This is done during elaboration, but not for things which are solved by
unification or search, and they might be 0 if, say, they're a record
projection or other type level function.
Mostly if they arise from search, where the target of the search has a
let in the type. So, we need to consider this when checking
metavariables in the linearity check.
The old way did a lot of needless traversal, though you wouldn't
typically notice until you start having 40+ modules to build. Now make a
note of what we've looked at already.
