In general, I don't like the idea of std.meta.trait, and so I am
providing some guidance by deleting the entire namespace from the
standard library and compiler codebase.
My main criticism is that it's overcomplicated machinery that bloats
compile times and is ultimately unnecessary given the existence of Zig's
strong type system and reference traces.
Users who want this can create a third party package that provides this
functionality.
closes#18051
b3462b7 caused a regression in a third-party project, since it forced
resolution of field initializers for any field call 'foo.bar()', despite
this only being necessary when 'bar' is a comptime field.
See https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/17692#issuecomment-1802096734.
This change allows struct field inits to use layout information
of their own struct without causing a circular dependency.
`semaStructFields` caches the ranges of the init bodies in the `StructType`
trailing data. The init bodies are then resolved by `resolveStructFieldInits`,
which is called before the inits are actually required.
Within the init bodies, the struct decl's instruction is repurposed to refer
to the field type itself. This is to allow us to easily rebuild the inst_map
mapping required for the init body instructions to refer to the field type.
Thanks to @mlugg for the guidance on this one!
Use inline to vastly simplify the exposed API. This allows a
comptime-known endian parameter to be propogated, making extra functions
for a specific endianness completely unnecessary.
As suggested by mlugg, always returns `error.NeedLazy`. If this has a
performance impact, it could be replaced by adding lazy handling to
`comptimeOnlyAdvanced`.
The main motivating change here is to prevent the creation of a fake
Decl object by the frontend in order to `@export()` a value.
Instead, `link.updateDeclExports` is renamed to `link.updateExports` and
accepts a tagged union which can be either a Decl.Index or a
InternPool.Index.
* 128-bit integer multiplication with overflow
* more instruction encodings used by std inline asm
* implement the `try_ptr` air instruction
* follow correct stack frame abi
* enable full panic handler
* enable stack traces
In general, let's not lean on GitHub issue numbers as having meaning.
The goal of behavior tests is to produce a minimum set of tests that
test 100% of the language.
This reverts commit 9f0359d78f9facc38418e32b0e8c1bf6f99f0d26 in an attempt to
make the tests pass again. The CI failure from that merge should be unrelated
to this commit.
