This saves a lot of unnecessary exploring of size change graphs, which
can get over the top quite quickly if there's complex mutual
definitions, or even just a single function with an interesting variety
of recursive calls.

We do this during desugaring because elaboration may insert valid
`?` values on the LHS (e.g. when elaborating things that cannot be
pattern-matched on and should be checked to be forced).
Where 'small' means they don't refer to other metavariables, except
right at the top level, and they don't go beyond a certain small depth,
arrived at by experimenting.
We already did a bit of this, but only for depth 0. The effect of this
is that we don't need to save out lots of metavariables, so ttc loading
is faster. This takes about 8s off the Idris build time!
We stored them as equations between terms, I think because terms are
easy to re-evaluate with new information, and because I thought we might
want to save them out. It's not usually a problem to do that. However...
Going back and forth between terms and values can be expensive if
we're stuck in the middle of a complicated unification problem, the like
of which can turn up a lot if your types are complicated. So, we need to
be able to handle this.
Now store the postponed problems as NF, rather than Term, and add a
fuction to resume evaluating a NF with an updated context.
* Banners for test pools
* Summary with the list of failing tests at the end
* Option to write the list of failing tests to a file
* Option to read the list of tests to run from a file
* Using these two latest features to add a new make target to rerun precisely the tests that failed last time
It has always bothered me that 'False' got mapped to tag 1 and 'True'
got mapped to tag 0. This doesn't change much in practice (except that
perhaps a code generator might notice some useful things in intToBool)
but I'm changing it now anyway. Also added a couple of inlinings of
boolean operations.
This saves a small amount of allocation, especially since we never
actually look at the tag in a record. We can use null? for Nothing just
like for Nil.
This also involves adding a flag to constructors and case alternatives
in CExp which say whether it's a NIL or CONS. Currently, we only do this
for Prelude.List, which already has an effect, but soon I'll extend this
to work for all list-shaped things and rather than being hard coded. We
could also imagine spotting other shapes (enumerations especially) for
code generators to spot as they see fit.
This will require code generators to be fixed to recognise the new
ConInfo flag, but you can just ignore it.
Bootstrap code also updated, because we don't currently have a way of
having separate support.ss/rkt for the bootstrap and normal builds!
This adds new `Int8`, `Int16`, `Int32` and `Int64` data types
to the compiler, thus working towards properly specified integer
types as discussed in #1048.
In addition, the following changes / corrections are made:
* Support casts from `Char`, `String`, and `Double` to all integer
types (and back). This fixes#1270.
* Make sure that all casts to limited-precision integers are properly
bounds checked (this was not the case so far for casts from `String`
and `Double` to `Int`)
* Add a thorough set of tests to make sure all bounds checks work
correctly for all supported casts and arithmetic operations
Don't just have a placeholder. While this doesn't have a huge effect (if
any) on performance, it does generate smaller output for Chez to
process, and is tidier. Perhaps it's good for other back ends too, ones
that don't optimise as much as Chez does.
Only doing named functions, not higher order functions. HOFs may be
worth doing too, if we can, since this could remove lambdas and make
fewer closures.
The increment in TTC Version is necessary because otherwise there could
be inconsistencies between libraries and clients erasure properties.
We've had these for a while, used for interface specialisation, but
they're not yet used anywhere else or properly documented. We should
document them soon, but for now, it's a useful performance boost to
always use the fast versions of pack/unpack/concat at runtime.
Also moves a couple to the prelude, to ensure that the fast versions are
defined in the same place as the 'normal' version so that the
transformation will always fire (that is, no need to import Data.String
for the transformation to work).
If all branches in a case block are a lambda, lift the lambda out. In
many cases, this can save creating a closure then evaluating it
immediately, because the function is already applied to the extra
argument.
This happens in particular with IO based code, where the extra argument
is the world token. One place where this transformation has a big effect
is 'evalRef' so the evaluator is now a bit faster (about 20% on the
small benchmark I tried it on - but no guarantees that's going to happen
on other examples!)
Previously, parameter block reused the same syntax as in Idris1:
```
parameters (v1 : t1, … , vn : tn)
```
Unfortunately this syntax presents some issues:
- It does not allow to declare implicit parameters
- It does not allow to specify which multiplicity to use
- It is inconsistent with the syntax used for named arguments elsewhere
in the language.
This change fixes those three problems by borrowing the syntax for
declaring type parameters in records:
```
parameters (v1 : t2) (v2 : t2) … (vn : tn)
```
It also enables other features like multiple declarations of arguments
with the same type:
```
parameters (v1, v2 : Type)
```
If we were to turn the whole check off instead of just making it
(not incase || isJust (isLHS mode)) then Issue962-case would fail
because `c` would get defaulted to `Integer` and not the `Int` that
is expected.
This change adds logic to set up sockaddr correctly for connect and
bind, handles the AF_UNIX case for getSockAddr and expands the existing
test to cover unix sockets.
Rather than tracking how far we are from the project root in the various
Makefile commands, it's much easier to reference the build target with
with an absolute path.
On Unix-like operating systems stdio.h is usually line-buffered. As
putStr uses fputs(3) from stdio.h internally, output will be written to
standard out after a newline character is written to the buffer. Since
the prompt does not contain a newline, it will only be written to
standard output after the user presses return. I encountered this issue
on Alpine Linux which uses musl libc (instead of glibc). However, I
believe this issue is likely also reproducible with glibc. This commit
fixes this issue by flushing standard output after writing the prompt to
it. Surprisingly, `src/Idris/IDEMode/REPL.idr` already does this
correctly, `src/Idris/REPL.idr` does not though.
Given we keep getting tripped up by this, here we go:
* Namespaces
* Data names
* Record names
* Data constructor names (except for operators)
* Record constructor names (except for operators)
* Interface constructor names (except for operators)
`.proj` and `proj` are identically defined but separate functions.
This patch fixes it by defining `.proj` only once, and adding `proj = (.proj)`
for every projection.
This avoids resugaring to the wrong type when there are user defined
symbols which conflicts with builtins such as Pair.
Changed the test linear002 which was relying on this behaviour for a
user defined Unit.
Fixes#634.
We've always just used 0, which isn't correct if the function is going
to be used in a runtime pattern match. Now calculate correctly so that
we're explicit about which type level variables are used at runtime.
This might cause some programs to fail to compile, if they use functions
that calculate Pi types. The solution is to make those functions
explicitly 0 multiplicity. If that doesn't work, you may have been
accidentally trying to use compile-time only data at run time!
Fixes#1163
Now reporting an error if we can't find a package that satisfies the
constraints. The version number field can still be a string (as it used
to be) but will give a deprecation warning - and the old style version
string wasn't used anyway.
Version constraints can have an upper and/or lower bound, which can be
inclusive or not.
