We don't need to write the current namespace every single time! This
won't work as well if there's namespaces in the file, so it needs
refining a bit, but this reduces loading time anyway.
When flattening the `SimpleDocTree` created from a `SimpleDocStream`, the
first part of a concatenated doc was sometimes dropped, depending on the
result of the recursive call to `flatten`.
This has a much better behaviour with respect to proof search and
the coverage checker realising we don't need to consider the Z case
than the `Not (x = Z)` we used earlier.
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
When bootstrapping, we're building things without packages being
available, so we can't expect to find them when looking for
dependencies. So, we find them another way, with an environment
variable. This flag is to tell Idris not to worry about missing
dependencies in this situation.
We also need to update the bootstrapping code, to deal with the new
version number format and new flag in the ipkg files for the libraries.
I think it's still safe to build from the previous version though - lets
see if CI agrees!
Packages are now installed in a directory with their version number.
On adding a package directory, we now look in a local 'depends'
directory first (to allow packages to be installed locally to another
project) before the global install directory.
Dependencies can have version bounds (details yet to be implemented) and
we pick the package with the highest version number that matches.
This is an alternative to using `fastUnpack` and `fastPack` to work
on lists of characters.
Using this to refactor the lexer and benchmarking the resulting
compiler on building idris2 shows it's 3 to 5s slower than the
current implementation that goes via `List Char`.
This may be backend-dependent so I still push this to contrib,
with the plan of running further benchmarks in the future.
