Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
Now they use slices or array pointers with any element type instead of
requiring byte pointers.
This is a breaking enhancement to the language.
The safety check for overlapping pointers will be implemented in a
future commit.
closes#14040
* improve error message when build manifest file is missing
* update std.zig.Ast to support ZON
* Compilation.AllErrors.Message: make the notes field a const slice
* move build manifest parsing logic into src/Manifest.zig and add more
checks, and make the checks integrate into the standard error
reporting code so that reported errors look sexy
closes#14290
This improves the ABI alignment resolution code.
This commit fully enables the MachO linker code in stage3. Note,
however, that there are still miscompilations in stage3.
This also adds `std.sort.sortContext` and
`std.sort.insertionSortContext` which are more advanced methods that
allow overriding the `swap` method. The former calls the latter for now
because reworking the main sort implementation is a big task that can be
done later without any changes to the API.
which is the index of the key that already exists in the hash map.
This enables the use case of using `AutoArrayHashMap(void, void)` which
may seem surprising at first, but is actually pretty handy!
This commit includes a proof-of-concept of how I want to use it, with a
new InternArena abstraction for stage2 that provides a compact way to
store values (and types) in an "internment arena", thus making types
stored exactly once (per arena), representable with a single u32 as a
reference to a type within an InternArena, and comparable with a
simple u32 integer comparison. If both types are in the same
InternArena, you can check if they are equal by seeing if their index is
the same.
What's neat about `AutoArrayHashMap(void, void)` is that it allows us to
look up the indexes by key, *without actually storing the keys*.
Instead, keys are treated as ephemeral values that are constructed as
needed.
As a result, we have an extremely efficient encoding of types and
values, represented only by three arrays, which has no pointers, and can
therefore be serialized and deserialized by a single writev/readv call.
The `map` field is denormalized data and can be computed from the other
two fields.
This is in contrast to our current Type/Value system which makes
extensive use of pointers.
The test at the bottom of InternArena.zig passes in this commit.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
which internally calls `ArrayHashMap.pop`, however, returns `?KV`
instead and performs the bounds checking automatically.
This function correponds to `ArrayList.popOrNull` and is meant
to fill the gap for situations where we want the quick lookup offered
by the hash map with elegant ability to iterate and pop of the
container with automatic bound checking that plugs in well with
a `while`-loop such as
```zig
var map = std.ArrayHashMap(K, V).init(allocator);
map.deinit();
while (map.popOrNull()) |entry| {
// ... do something
}
assert(map.count() == 0);
```
- hash/eql functions moved into a Context object
- *Context functions pass an explicit context
- *Adapted functions pass specialized keys and contexts
- new getPtr() function returns a pointer to value
- remove functions renamed to fetchRemove
- new remove functions return bool
- removeAssertDiscard deleted, use assert(remove(...)) instead
- Keys and values are stored in separate arrays
- Entry is now {*K, *V}, the new KV is {K, V}
- BufSet/BufMap functions renamed to match other set/map types
- fixed iterating-while-modifying bug in src/link/C.zig

Mainly I wanted Jakub's new macOS code for respecting stack size, since
we now depend on it for debug builds able to pass one of the test cases
for recursive comptime function calls with `@setEvalBranchQuota`.

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
* `comptime const` is redundant
* don't use `extern enum`; specify a tag type.
`extern enum` is only when you need tags to alias. But aliasing tags
is a smell. I will be making a proposal shortly to remove `extern enum`
from the language.
* there is no such thing as `packed enum`.
* instead of `catch |_|`, omit the capture entirely.
* unused function definition with missing parameter name
* using `try` outside of a function or test
These APIs allow one to write code that is agnostic of whether it is
using an ArrayHashMap or a HashMap, which can be valuable. Specify
intent precisely: if you only need the count of the items, it makes
sense to have a function for that.
