* Use a debug build of stage3 instead of a debug build of stage2 for
our self-hosted compiler test coverage.
* Move coverage from stage1 to stage3 for:
- building self-hosted without LLVM
- building self-hosted for 32-bit arm
- test-compiler-rt
- test-behavior
- test-std
- test-compare-output
- test-asm-link
- test-fmt
I hit the "quotes in an RSP file" issue when trying to compile gRPC using
"zig cc". As a fun exercise, I decided to see if I could fix it myself.
I'm fully open to this code being flat-out rejected. Or I can take feedback
to fix it up.
This modifies (and renames) _ArgIteratorWindows_ in process.zig such that
it works with arbitrary strings (or the contents of an RSP file).
In main.zig, this new _ArgIteratorGeneral_ is used to address the "TODO"
listed in _ClangArgIterator_.
This change closes#4833.
**Pros:**
- It has the nice attribute of handling "RSP file" arguments in the same way it
handles "cmd_line" arguments.
- High Performance, minimal allocations
- Fixed bug in previous _ArgIteratorWindows_, where final trailing backslashes
in a command line were entirely dropped
- Added a test case for the above bug
- Harmonized the _ArgIteratorXxxx._initWithAllocator()_ and _next()_ interface
across Windows/Posix/Wasi (Moved Windows errors to _initWithAllocator()_
rather than _next()_)
- Likely perf benefit on Windows by doing _utf16leToUtf8AllocZ()_ only once
for the entire cmd_line
**Cons:**
- Breaking Change in std library on Windows: Call
_ArgIterator.initWithAllocator()_ instead of _ArgIterator.init()_
- PhaseMage is new with contributions to Zig, might need a lot of hand-holding
- PhaseMage is a Windows person, non-Windows stuff will need to be double-checked
**Testing Done:**
- Wrote a few new test cases in process.zig
- zig.exe build test -Dskip-release (no new failures seen)
- zig cc now builds gRPC without error
Over the last year of using std.log in practice, it has become clear to
me that having the current 8 distinct log levels does more harm than
good. It is too subjective which level a given message should have which
makes filtering based on log level weaker as not all messages will have
been assigned the log level one might expect.
Instead, more granular filtering should be achieved by leveraging the
logging scope feature. Filtering based on a combination of scope and log
level should be sufficiently powerful for all use-cases.
Note that the self hosted compiler has already limited itself to 4
distinct log levels for many months and implemented granular filtering
based on both log scope and level. This has worked very well in practice
while working on the self hosted compiler.
This change was mostly made with `zig fmt` and this also modified some whitespace. Note that in some files, `zig fmt` produced incorrect code, so the change was made manually.
* Implements #3768. This is a sweeping breaking change that requires
many (trivial) edits to Zig source code. Array values no longer
coerced to slices; however one may use `&` to obtain a reference to
an array value, which may then be coerced to a slice.
* Adds `IrInstruction::dump`, for debugging purposes. It's useful to
call to inspect the instruction when debugging Zig IR.
* Fixes bugs with result location semantics. See the new behavior test
cases, and compile error test cases.
* Fixes bugs with `@typeInfo` not properly resolving const values.
* Behavior tests are passing but std lib tests are not yet. There
is more work to do before merging this branch.
this also deletes C string literals from the language, and then makes
the std lib changes and compiler changes necessary to get the behavior
tests and std lib tests passing again.
Thanks to the Windows Process Environment Block, it is possible to
obtain handles to the standard input, output, and error streams without
possibility of failure.
This removes the odd width and precision specifiers found and replacing
them with the more consistent api described in #1358.
Take the following example:
{1:5.9}
This refers to the first argument (0-indexed) in the argument list. It
will be printed with a minimum width of 5 and will have a precision of 9
(if applicable).
Not all types correctly use these parameters just yet. There are still
some missing gaps to fill in. Fill characters and alignment have yet to
be implemented.
See #770
To help automatically translate code, see the
zig-fmt-pointer-reform-2 branch.
This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'
