* Sema: allow binary operations and boolean not on vectors of bool
* langref: Clarify use of operators on vectors (`and` and `or` not allowed)
closes#24093
* trailing whitespace
* langref: undefined _is_ materialized in all safe modes
I am also not super happy about the clause that immediately follows. I
_believe_ what we want to say here is that, simultaneously:
* undefined is guaranteed to be matrerialized in in all safe modes.
A Zig implementation that elides `ptr.* = undefined` in ReleaseSafe
mode would be a non-conforming implementation.
* A Zig program that relies on undefined being materialized is buggy.
But I don't think it's the time to engage this level of language-lawering!
`castTruncatedData` was a poorly worded error (all shrinking casts
"truncate bits", it's just that we assume those bits to be zext/sext of
the other bits!), and `negativeToUnsigned` was a pointless distinction
which forced the compiler to emit worse code (since two separate safety
checks were required for casting e.g. 'i32' to 'u16') and wasn't even
implemented correctly. This commit combines those safety panics into one
function, `integerOutOfBounds`. The name maybe isn't perfect, but that's
not hugely important; what matters is the new default message, which is
clearer than the old ones: "integer does not fit in destination type".
mainly this addresses the following use case:
1. Someone creates a template with build.zig.zon, id field included
(note that zig init does not create this problem since it generates
fresh id every time it runs).
2. User A uses the template, changing package name to "example" but not
id field.
3. User B uses the same template, changing package name also to
"example", also not changing the id field.
Here, both packages have unintentional conflicting logical ids.
By making the field a combination of name checksum + random id, this
accident is avoided. "nonce" is an OK name for this.
Also relaxes errors on remote packages when using `zig fetch`.
Introduces the `id` field to `build.zig.zon`.
Together with name, this represents a globally unique package
identifier. This field should be initialized with a 16-bit random number
when the package is first created, and then *never change*. This allows
Zig to unambiguously detect when one package is an updated version of
another.
When forking a Zig project, this id should be regenerated with a new
random number if the upstream project is still maintained. Otherwise,
the fork is *hostile*, attempting to take control over the original
project's identity.
`0x0000` is invalid because it obviously means a random number wasn't
used.
`0xffff` is reserved to represent "naked" packages.
Tracking issue #14288
Additionally:
* Fix bad path in error messages regarding build.zig.zon file.
* Manifest validates that `name` and `version` field of build.zig.zon
are maximum 32 bytes.
* Introduce error for root package to not switch to enum literal for
name.
* Introduce error for root package to omit `id`.
* Update init template to generate `id`
* Update init template to populate `minimum_zig_version`.
* New package hash format changes:
- name and version limited to 32 bytes via error rather than truncation
- truncate sha256 to 192 bits rather than 40 bits
- include the package id
This means that, given only the package hashes for a complete dependency
tree, it is possible to perform version selection and know the final
size on disk, without doing any fetching whatsoever. This prevents
wasted bandwidth since package versions not selected do not need to be
fetched.
The previous language using subsets was really just stating a couple
of the properties of the union of a group of sets, and with a minor
error at that.
There's been some proliferation of dependency URLs that reference
mutable data such as links to git branches that can change. This has
resulted in broken projects, i.e.
* 9eef9de94c/build.zig.zon
* 4b64353e9c
There's also disagreement about whether it's fine for URL's to point to
git branches, i.e.
https://github.com/Not-Nik/raylib-zig/pull/130
This updates the docs to mention that zig won't be able to use URLs if
their content changes.
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.
