This command is not just a cosmetic feature.
We need it to defined `id_rhs` before the tactic framework is defined.
We want `id_rhs` to be used in all definitions generated by the equation
compiler. Right now, it is only used in definitions defined after the
tactic framework.
It fixes the issue by propagating the correct information to the
equation compiler.
The fix may be a little bit hackish, but it is comapatible with
the approach we are already using: store `m_is_meta` flag in the equation
macro.
Disclaimer: we may still have other instances of this bug, since
the information may still be propagated incorrectly in other places.
I will not refactor this code right now nor accept any PR that
changes the current design. I am busy in other parts of the code
base and do not have time to do the context switch required for
implementing this kind of change and/or review the PR and make sure I'm
happy with it.
@kha: I decided to implement this change before I start the
type_context modifications. The change did not affect the corelib and
test suite much. The only annoying problem is that `out` cannot be
used to name locals anymore.
`{s with ...}` is now `{..., ..s}`, which more clearly expresses that the
result type is not necessarily equal to the type of `s` (in absence of an
expected type and a structure name, we still default to the type of `s`).
Multiple fallback sources can be given: `{..., ..s, ..t}` will fall back to
searching a field in `s`, then in `t`. The last component can also be `..`,
which will replace any missing fields with a placeholder.
The old notation will be removed in the future.
Function applications `(f ...)` were not being elaborated correctly when
`f` has implicit parameters occurring after auto_params.
The new test exposes the problem.
This bug was found when developing the red black tree module.
This commit also fixes the following bugs:
- Invoke type class resolution again after tactic execution at
synthesize method. Reason: metavariables occurring in type
class instances may have been synthesized by tactics.
- mctx.assign optimization at invoke_tactic was incorrect
when the metavariable was assigned by typing rules.
We use the auxiliary procedure pull_nested_rec_fn to pull recursive
application in nested match expressions. This is needed because the
nested match expression is compiled before we process the recursive
procedure that contains it. This transformation may produce
performance problems if the recursive application does not depend on
the data being matched. Here is an example from the new test:
```
def tst : tree → nat
| (tree.leaf v) := v
| (tree.node v l r) :=
match f v with
| tt := tst l
| ff := tst r
end
```
pull_nested_rec_fn will convert it into
```
def tst : tree → nat
| (tree.leaf v) := v
| (tree.node v l r) := tst._match_1 (f v) (tst l) (tst r)
```
Since our interpreter uses eager evaluation, both `(tst l)` and `(tst r)`
are executed. This commit fixes this issue by expanding `tst._match_1`
during code generation.
TODO: we are not checking if the unicode escape values provide by the
user correspond to valud unicode scalar values. We should check how
other languanges handle this case.
Comment from parser.h
This commit makes sure that all declaration parameters must be surrounded with some kind of bracket. (e.g., '()', '{}', '[]').
The goal is to avoid counter-intuitive declarations such as:
example p : false := trivial
def main proof : false := trivial
which would be parsed as
example (p : false) : _ := trivial
def main (proof : false) : _ := trivial
where `_` in both cases is elaborated into `true`. This issue was raised by @gebner in the slack channel.
Remark: we still want implicit delimiters for lambda/pi expressions. That is, we want to write
fun x : t, s
or
fun x, s
instead of
fun (x : t), s
