Wow, *lots* of backends were reliant on Sema doing the heavy lifting for
them. CBE, Wasm, and SPIR-V have all regressed in places now that they
actually need to, like, initialize unions and such.
Alignment and fill options only apply to numbers.
Rework the implementation to mainly branch on the format string rather
than the type information. This is more straightforward to maintain and
more straightforward for comptime evaluation.
Enums support being printed as decimal, hexadecimal, octal, and binary.
`formatInteger` is another possible format method that is
unconditionally called when the value type is struct and one of the
integer-printing format specifiers are used.
for structs, enums, and unions.
auto untagged unions are no longer printed as pointers; instead they are
printed as "{ ... }".
extern and packed untagged unions have each field printed, similar to
what gdb does.
also fix bugs in delimiter based reading
added adapter to AnyWriter and GenericWriter to help bridge the gap
between old and new API
make std.testing.expectFmt work at compile-time
std.fmt no longer has a dependency on std.unicode. Formatted printing
was never properly unicode-aware. Now it no longer pretends to be.
Breakage/deprecations:
* std.fs.File.reader -> std.fs.File.deprecatedReader
* std.fs.File.writer -> std.fs.File.deprecatedWriter
* std.io.GenericReader -> std.io.Reader
* std.io.GenericWriter -> std.io.Writer

* std.fmt.fmtIntSizeBin -> {Bi}
* std.fmt.fmtDuration -> {D}
* std.fmt.fmtDurationSigned -> {D}
* {} -> {f} when there is a format method
* format method signature
- anytype -> *std.io.Writer
- inferred error set -> error{WriteFailed}
- options -> (deleted)
* std.fmt.Formatted
- now takes context type explicitly
- no fmt string
This was done by regex substitution with `sed`. I then manually went
over the entire diff and fixed any incorrect changes.
This diff also changes a lot of `callconv(.C)` to `callconv(.c)`, since
my regex happened to also trigger here. I opted to leave these changes
in, since they *are* a correct migration, even if they're not the one I
was trying to do!
And make the initialization less error prone by removing a default for
iter, which is required for a functional parser
std: Add a brief doc comment for `std.fmt.Parser`
The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
* format: fix default character when no alignment
When no alignment is specified, the character that should be used is the
fill character that is otherwise provided, not space.
This is closer to the default that C programmers (and other languages)
use: "04x" fills with zeroes (in zig as of today x:04 fills with spaces)
Test:
const std = @import("std");
const expectFmt = std.testing.expectFmt;
test "fmt.defaultchar.no-alignment" {
// as of today the following test passes:
try expectFmt("0x00ff", "0x{x:0>4}", .{255});
// as of today the following test fails (returns "0x ff" instead)
try expectFmt("0x00ff", "0x{x:04}", .{255});
}
* non breaking improvement of string formatting
* improved comment
* simplify the code a little
* small improvement around how characters identified as valid are consumed
This commit changes how we represent comptime-mutable memory
(`comptime var`) in the compiler in order to implement the intended
behavior that references to such memory can only exist at comptime.
It does *not* clean up the representation of mutable values, improve the
representation of comptime-known pointers, or fix the many bugs in the
comptime pointer access code. These will be future enhancements.
Comptime memory lives for the duration of a single Sema, and is not
permitted to escape that one analysis, either by becoming runtime-known
or by becoming comptime-known to other analyses. These restrictions mean
that we can represent comptime allocations not via Decl, but with state
local to Sema - specifically, the new `Sema.comptime_allocs` field. All
comptime-mutable allocations, as well as any comptime-known const allocs
containing references to such memory, live in here. This allows for
relatively fast checking of whether a value references any
comptime-mtuable memory, since we need only traverse values up to
pointers: pointers to Decls can never reference comptime-mutable memory,
and pointers into `Sema.comptime_allocs` always do.
This change exposed some faulty pointer access logic in `Value.zig`.
I've fixed the important cases, but there are some TODOs I've put in
which are definitely possible to hit with sufficiently esoteric code. I
plan to resolve these by auditing all direct accesses to pointers (most
of them ought to use Sema to perform the pointer access!), but for now
this is sufficient for all realistic code and to get tests passing.
This change eliminates `Zcu.tmp_hack_arena`, instead using the Sema
arena for comptime memory mutations, which is possible since comptime
memory is now local to the current Sema.
This change should allow `Decl` to store only an `InternPool.Index`
rather than a full-blown `ty: Type, val: Value`. This commit does not
perform this refactor.
Symmetry with parse_float and to hide the implementation from the user.
Additionally, we expose the entire namespace and provide some aliases so
everything is available to a user.
