Elaborate the scope of a let without the computational behaviour,
meaning that `let x = v in e` is equivalent to `(\x => e) v`. This makes
things more consistent (in that let bindings already don't propagate
inside case or with blocks) at the cost of not being able to rely on the
computational behaviour in types. More importantly, it removes a
significant potential source of slowness.
Fixes#58
If you need the computational behaviour, you can use a local function
definition instead.
Fixes#42. If we don't do this, the name is treated in the saem way as
an unbound implicit, which is not what we want, so update with the
method applied to the parameters.
We were only doing implicits, so add auto implicits too. It's slightly
tricky, because we might also have implicits given of the form @{x}
which stands for the next auto implicit.
Fixes#50
Just like all other pi-bound things, if m is an unbound implicit and we
have m ?x = m y as a unification problem, we can conclude ?x = y because
it has to be true for all ms.
This was implemented in Blodwen but I hadn't got around to it yet for
Idris2... fortunately it's a bit easier in Idris2!
Fixes#44
We were only checking parameters, meaning that there were potential
clashes leading to confusing behaviour, and meaning that it was somehow
relevant what the names were in the interface!
Now by marking a method as multiplicity 0, we can explicitly say that
it's compile time only, so we can use it to compute types based on other
erased things - see tests/idris2/interface008 for a small example.
This fixes#8 - at least in that it allows the interface to be expressed
properly now, although the multiplicity annotations mean that
unfortunately it can't be compatible with Idris 1.
A local variable can't be applied to itself when searching (otherwise,
for example, we could end up trying something like id id id id id id etc
forever). So remove it from the environment before searching for its
arguments.
This and the previous patch fix#24. (Or, at least, the minimised cases
reported as part of it!)
We can't begin a search until we know what we're searching for! For some
reason I forgot to add this case, and without it the search space can
explode, or we might find an answer too soon and commit to the wrong
thing!
Fixes#36
At least on Linux, \r needs to be in singles quotes as an argument to tr
or it removes all the 'r' instead! Hopefully it also works this way on
Windows...
There's a bit of a trade off here. It would be better to report the
ambiguity but this would lead to a need for (I think) excessive
precision in types which would impact usability. It will always take the
leftmost interface.
Chapter 7 tests added.
Idris 1 will fill in the last metavariables by matching rather than
unification, as a convenience. I still think this is okay, even if it's
a bit hacky, because it's a huge convenience and doesn't affect other
unification problems.
Also abstract over lets in guesses, like in delayed elaborators, to
avoid any difficulties when linearity checking and to make sure that let
bound things don't get reevaluated.
This is enough to get the Chapter 6 TypeDD tests working
This was left over from Blodwen (where it was also wrong :)) but the way
we apply metavariables now means we don't need to do anything fancy when
unelaborating them for pretty printing.
Need to add by full name, due to ordering of loading (the name it's
attached to may not be resolved yet!). This doesn't seem to cause any
performance problems but we can revisit if it does.
Small change needed to fix one - assume given implicits which are of the
form x@_ arise from types. It's a bit of a hack but I don't think
there's any need for anything more complicated.
Only valid if unifying the pattern at the end doesn't solve any
metavariables. Also when elaborating applications of fromInteger etc to
constants on the LHS we need to be in expression mode, then reduce the
result later.
This was a slight difference from Blodwen that wasn't accounted for -
there might be lets in the nested environment, so when building the
expanded application type, make sure we go under them
This wasn't necessary before, since we always inlined, but since we can
now postpone things longer and don't always inline until much later, we
need to know what names everything refers to earlier.
