- Removed Array methods: `new`, `copy` and `new_[1234]`.
- New builtins for `Vector.insert`, `Vector.remove` and `Vector.flatten`.
- Replaced `Vector_Builder` use of `Array.copy` to a `Vector.Builder` approach.
- Removed `module` argument from `enso_project` (new `Project_Description.new` API).
- Removed the custom option from date and time parse/format dropdowns.
- The `format` dropdown uses the value to create the dropdown. (Screenshot below)
- Removed `StorageType` coalescing rules and replaced them with simpler logic in `ObjectStorage`.
- Update signature for `add_row_number` and add aliases.
Remove the magical code generation of `enso_project` method from codegen phase and reimplement it as a proper builtin method.
The old behavior of `enso_project` was special, and violated the language semantics (regarding the `self` argument):
- It was implicitly declared in every module, so it could be called without a self argument.
- It can be called with explicit module as self argument, e.g. `Base.enso_project`, or `Visualizations.enso_project`.
Let's avoid implicit methods on modules and let's be explicit. Let's reimplement the `enso_project` as a builtin method. To comply with the language semantics, we will have to change the signature a bit:
- `enso_project` is a static method in the `Standard.Base.Meta.Enso_Project` module.
- It takes an optional `project` argument (instead of taking it as an explicit self argument).
Having the `enso_project` defined as a (shadowed) builtin method, we will automatically have suggestions created for it.
# Important Notes
- Truffle nodes are no longer generated in codegen phase for the `enso_project` method. It is a standard builtin now.
- The minimal import to use `enso_project` is now `from Standard.Base.Meta.Enso_Project import enso_project`.
- Tested implicitly by `org.enso.compiler.ExecCompilerTest#testInvalidEnsoProjectRef`.
- Adjusted `Context.is_enabled` to support default argument (moved built in so can have defaults).
- Made `environment` case-insensitive.
- Bug fix for play button.
- Short hand to execute within an enabled context.
- Forbid file writing if the Output context is disabled with a `Forbidden_Operation` error.
- Add temporary file support via `File.create_temporary_file` which is deleted on exit of JVM.
- Execution Context first pass in `Text.write`.
- Added dry run warning.
- Writes to a temporary file if disabled.
- Created a `DryRunFileManager` which will create and manage the temporary files.
- Added `format` dropdown to `File.read` and `Data.read`.
- Renamed `JSON_File` to `JSON_Format` to be consistent.
(still to unit test).
- Missing tests from number parsing.
- Fix type signature on some warning methods.
- Fix warnings on `Standard.Database.Data.Table.parse_values`.
- Added test for `Nothing` and empty string on `use_first_row_as_names`.
- New API for `Number.format` taking a simple format string and `Locale`.
- Add ellipsis to truncated `Text.to_display_text`.
- Adjusted built-in `to_display_text` for numbers to not include type (but also to display BigInteger as value).
- Remove `Noise.Generator` interface type.
- Json: Added `to_display_text` to `JS_Object`.
- Time: Added `to_display_text` for `Date`, `Time_Of_Day`, `Date_Time`, `Duration` and `Period`.
- Text: Added `to_display_text` to `Locale`, `Case_Sensitivity`, `Encoding`, `Text_Sub_Range`, `Span`, `Utf_16_Span`.
- System: Added `to_display_text` to `File`, `File_Permissions`, `Process_Result` and `Exit_Code`.
- Network: Added `to_display_text` to `URI`, `HTTP_Status_Code` and `Header`.
- Added `to_display_text` to `Maybe`, `Regression`, `Pair`, `Range`, `Filter_Condition`.
- Added support for `to_js_object` and `to_display_text` to `Random_Number_Generator`.
- Verified all error types have `to_display_text`.
- Removed `BigInt`, `Date`, `Date_Time` and `Time_Of_Day` JS based rendering as using `to_display_text` now.
- Added support for rendering nested structures in the table viz.

The primary motivation for this change was
https://github.com/enso-org/enso/issues/6248, which requested the possibility of defining `to_display_text` methods of common errors via regular method definitions. Until now one could only define them via builtins.
To be able to support that, polyglot invocation had to report `to_display_text` in the list of (invokable) members, which it didn't. Until now, it only considered fields of constructors and builtin methods. That is now fixed as indicated by the change in `Atom`.
Closes#6248.
# Important Notes
Once most of builtins have been translated to regular Enso code, it became apparent how the usage of `.` at the end of the message is not consistent and inflexible. The pure message should never follow with a dot or it makes it impossible to pretty print consistently for the purpose of error reporting. Otherwise we regularly end up with errors ending with `..` or worse. So I went medieval on the reasons for failures and removed all the dots.
The overall result is mostly the same except now we are much more consistent.
Finally, there was a bit of a good reason for using builtins as it simplified our testing.
Take for example `No_Such_Method.Error`. If we do not import `Errors.Common` module we only rely on builtin error types. The type obviously has the constructor but it **does not have** `to_display_text` in scope; the latter is no longer a builtin method but a regular method. This is not really a problem for users who will always import stdlib but our tests often don't. Hence the number of changes and sometimes lack of human-readable errors there.
As per design, IOContexts controlled via type signatures are going away. They are replaced by explicit `Context.if_enabled` runtime checks that will be added to particular method implementations.
`production`/`development` `IOPermissions` are replaced with `live` and `design` execution enviornment. Currently, the `live` env has a hardcoded list of allowed contexts i.e. `Input` and `Output`.
# Important Notes
As per design PR-55. Closes#6129. Closes#6131.
Exporting types named the same as the module where they are defined in `Main` modules of library components may lead to accidental name conflicts. This became apparent when trying to access `Problem_Behavior` module via a fully qualified name and the compiler rejected it. This is due to the fact that `Main` module exported `Error` type defined in `Standard.Base.Error` module, thus making it impossible to access any other submodules of `Standard.Base.Error` via a fully qualified name.
This change adds a warning to FullyQualifiedNames pass that detects any such future problems.
While only `Error` module was affected, it was widely used in the stdlib, hence the number of changes.
Closes#5902.
# Important Notes
I left out the potential conflict in micro-distribution, thus ensuring we actually detect and report the warning.
Add `Comparator` type class emulation for all types. Migrate all the types in stdlib to this new `Comparator` API. The main documentation is in `Ordering.enso`.

# Important Notes
- The new Comparator API forces users to specify both `equals` and `hash` methods on their custom comparators.
- All the `compare_to` overrides were replaced by definition of a custom _ordered_ comparator.
- All the call sites of `x.compare_to y` method were replaced with `Ordering.compare x y`.
- `Ordering.compare` is essentially a shortcut for `Comparable.from x . compare x y`.
- The default comparator for `Any` is `Default_Unordered_Comparator`, which just forwards to the builtin `EqualsNode` and `HashCodeNode` nodes.
- For `x`, one can get its hash with `Comparable.from x . hash x`.
- This makes `hash` as _hidden_ as possible. There are no other public methods to get a hash code of an object.
- Comparing `x` and `y` can be done either by `Ordering.compare x y` or `Comparable.from x . compare x y` instead of `x.compare_to y`.
https://github.com/enso-org/enso/pull/3764 introduced static wrappers for instance methods. Except it had a limitation to only be allowed for types with at least a single constructor.
That excluded builtin types as well which, by default, don't have them. This limitation is problematic for Array/Vector consolidation and makes builtin types somehow second-citizens.
This change lifts the limitation for builtin types only. Note that we do want to share the implementation of the generated builtin methods. At the same time due to the additional argument we have to adjust the starting index of the arguments.
This change avoids messing with the existing dispatch logic, to avoid unnecessary complexity.
As a result it is now possible to call builtin types' instance methods, statically:
```
arr = Array.new_1 42
Array.length arr
```
That would previously lead to missing method exception in runtime.
# Important Notes
The only exception is `Nothing`. Primarily because it requires `Nothing` to have a proper eigentype (`Nothing.type`) which would messed up a lot of existing logic for no obvious benefit (no more calling of `foo=Nothing` in parameters being one example).
Compiler performed name resolution of literals in type signatures but would silently fail to report any problems.
This meant that wrong names or forgotten imports would sneak in to stdlib.
This change introduces 2 main changes:
1) failed name resolutions are appended in `TypeNames` pass
2) `GatherDiagnostics` pass also collects and reports failures from type
signatures IR
Updated stdlib so that it passes given the correct gatekeepers in place.
This removes the special handling of polyglot exceptions and allows matching on Java exceptions in the same way as for any other types.
`Polyglot_Error`, `Panic.catch_java` and `Panic.catch_primitive` are gone
The change mostly deals with the backslash of removing `Polyglot_Error` and two `Panic` methods.
`Panic.catch` was implemented as a builtin instead of delegating to `Panic.catch_primitive` builtin that is now gone.
This fixes https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/182844611

- Moved static method of `Map` into type. Publishing type not module.
# Important Notes
- Move `Text.compare_to` into `Text`.
- Move `Text.to_json` into `Json`.
It appears that we were always adding builtin methods to the scope of the module and the builtin type that shared the same name.
This resulted in some methods being accidentally available even though they shouldn't.
This change treats differently builtins of types and modules and introduces auto-registration feature for builtins.
By default all builtin methods are registered with a type, unless explicitly defined in the annotation property.
Builtin methods that are auto-registered do not have to be explicitly defined and are registered with the underlying type.
Registration correctly infers the right type, depending whether we deal with static or instance methods.
Builtin methods that are not auto-registered have to be explicitly defined **always**. Modules' builtin methods are the prime example.
# Important Notes
Builtins now carry information whether they are static or not (inferred from the lack of `self` parameter).
They also carry a `autoRegister` property to determine if a builtin method should be automatically registered with the type.
1. Changes how we do monadic state – rather than a haskelly solution, we now have an implicit env with mutable data inside. It's better for the JVM. It also opens the possibility to have state ratained on exceptions (previously not possible) – both can now be implemented.
2. Introduces permission check system for IO actions.
Changelog
- fix reporting of runtime type for values annotated with warning
- fix visualizations of values annotated with warnings
- fix `Runtime.get_stack_trace` failure in interactive mode
Makes statics static. A type and its instances have different methods defined on them, as it should be. Constructors are now scoped in types, and can be imported/exported.
# Important Notes
The method of fixing stdlib chosen here is to just not. All the conses are exported to make all old code work. All such instances are marked with `TODO Dubious constructor export` so that it can be found and fixed.
This is a step towards the new language spec. The `type` keyword now means something. So we now have
```
type Maybe a
Some (from_some : a)
None
```
as a thing one may write. Also `Some` and `None` are not standalone types now – only `Maybe` is.
This halfway to static methods – we still allow for things like `Number + Number` for backwards compatibility. It will disappear in the next PR.
The concept of a type is now used for method dispatch – with great impact on interpreter code density.
Some APIs in the STDLIB may require re-thinking. I take this is going to be up to the libraries team – some choices are not as good with a semantically different language. I've strived to update stdlib with minimal changes – to make sure it still works as it did.
It is worth mentioning the conflicting constructor name convention I've used: if `Foo` only has one constructor, previously named `Foo`, we now have:
```
type Foo
Foo_Data f1 f2 f3
```
This is now necessary, because we still don't have proper statics. When they arrive, this can be changed (quite easily, with SED) to use them, and figure out the actual convention then.
I have also reworked large parts of the builtins system, because it did not work at all with the new concepts.
It also exposes the type variants in SuggestionBuilder, that was the original tiny PR this was based on.
PS I'm so sorry for the size of this. No idea how this could have been smaller. It's a breaking language change after all.
This change modifies the current language by requiring explicit `self` parameter declaration
for methods. Methods without `self` parameter in the first position should be treated as statics
although that is not yet part of this PR. We add an implicit self to all methods
This obviously required updating the whole stdlib and its components, tests etc but the change
is pretty straightforward in the diff.
Notice that this change **does not** change method dispatch, which was removed in the last changes.
This was done on purpose to simplify the implementation for now. We will likely still remove all
those implicit selfs to bring true statics.
Minor caveat - since `main` doesn't actually need self, already removed that which simplified
a lot of code.
Significantly improves the polyglot Date support (as introduced by #3374). It enhances the `Date_Spec` to run it in four flavors:
- with Enso Date (as of now)
- with JavaScript Date
- with JavaScript Date wrapped in (JavaScript) array
- with Java LocalDate allocated directly
The code is then improved by necessary modifications to make the `Date_Spec` pass.
# Important Notes
James has requested in [#181755990](https://www.pivotaltracker.com/n/projects/2539304/stories/181755990) - e.g. _Review and improve InMemory Table support for Dates, Times, DateTimes, BigIntegers_ the following program to work:
```
foreign js dateArr = """
return [1, new Date(), 7]
main =
IO.println <| (dateArr.at 1).week_of_year
```
the program works with here in provided changes and prints `27` as of today.
@jdunkerley has provided tests for proper behavior of date in `Table` and `Column`. Those tests are working as of [f16d07e](f16d07e640). One just needs to accept `List<Value>` and then query `Value` for `isDate()` when needed.
Last round of changes is related to **exception handling**. 8b686b12bd makes sure `makePolyglotError` accepts only polyglot values. Then it wraps plain Java exceptions into `WrapPlainException` with `has_type` method - 60da5e70ed - the remaining changes in the PR are only trying to get all tests working in the new setup.
The support for `Time` isn't part of this PR yet.
More and more often I need a way to only recover a specific type of a dataflow error (in a similar manner as with panics). So the API for `Error.catch` has been amended to more closely resemble `Panic.catch`, allowing to handle only specific types of dataflow errors, passing others through unchanged. The default is `Any`, meaning all errors are caught by default, and the behaviour of `x.catch` remains unchanged.
A semi-manual s/this/self appied to the whole standard library.
Related to https://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/182328601
In the compiler promoted to use constants instead of hardcoded
`this`/`self` whenever possible.
# Important Notes
The PR **does not** require explicit `self` parameter declaration for methods as this part
of the design is still under consideration.
This introduces a tiny alternative to our stdlib, that can be used for testing the interpreter. There are 2 main advantages of such a solution:
1. Performance: on my machine, `runtime-with-intstruments/test` drops from 146s to 65s, while `runtime/test` drops from 165s to 51s. >6 mins total becoming <2 mins total is awesome. This alone means I'll drink less coffee in these breaks and will be healthier.
2. Better separation of concepts – currently working on a feature that breaks _all_ enso code. The dependency of interpreter tests on the stdlib means I have no means of incremental testing – ALL of stdlib must compile. This is horrible, rendered my work impossible, and resulted in this PR.
