Void type
|

~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
The `void`:idx: type denotes the absense of any type. Parameters of
|
||||
type ``void`` are treated as non-existent, a result ``void`` type means that
|
||||
the procedure does not return a value:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: nimrod
|
||||
proc nothing(x, y: void): void =
|
||||
echo "ha"
|
||||
|
||||
nothing() # writes "ha" to stdout
|
||||
|

The ``void`` type is particularly useful for generic code:

proc emptyProc() = nil
|
||||
|
||||
callProc[int](intProc, 12)
|
||||
callProc[void](emptyProc)
|
||||
|
||||
However, a ``void`` type cannot be inferred in generic code:

callProc(emptyProc)

# Error: type mismatch: got (proc ())

`Generics`:idx: are Nimrod's means to parametrize procs, iterators or types with

Type operator

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|

The `type`:idx: (in many other languages called `typeof`:idx:) operator can
|
||||
be used to get the type of an expression:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: nimrod
|

var x = 0
|
||||
var y: type(x) # y has type int
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Type constraints
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
`Type constraints`:idx: can be used to restrict the instantiation of a generic
|
||||
type parameter. Only the specified types are valid for instantiation:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: nimrod
|
||||
proc onlyIntOrString[T: int|string](x, y: T): T = nil
|
||||
|

onlyIntOrString(45, 66) # valid
|
||||
onlyIntOrString(56.0, 0.0) # type mismatch
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from ordinary types, type constraints can also be of the
|
||||
following *type classes*:
|
||||
|
||||
================== ===================================================
|
||||
type class matches
|
||||
================== ===================================================
|
||||
``object`` any object type
|
||||
``tuple`` any tuple type
|
||||
``enum`` any enumeration
|
||||
``proc`` any proc type
|
||||
``ref`` any ``ref`` type
|
||||
``ptr`` any ``ptr`` type
|
||||
``var`` any ``var`` type
|

``distinct`` any distinct type

``array`` any array type
|

``set`` any set type
|

|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: nimrod
|
||||
proc `==`*[T: tuple](x, y: T): bool =
|
||||
## generic ``==`` operator for tuples that is lifted from the components
|
||||
## of `x` and `y`.
|
||||
for a, b in fields(x, y):
|
||||
if a != b: return false
|
||||
return true
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Symbol lookup in generics
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Symbols in generics are looked up in two different contexts: Both the context
|
||||
at definition and the context at instantiation are considered for any symbol
|
||||
occuring in a generic:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: nimrod
|
||||
type
|
||||
TIndex = distinct int
|
||||
|
||||
proc `==` (a, b: TIndex): bool {.borrow.}
|
||||
|
||||
var a = (0, 0.TIndex)
|
||||
var b = (0, 0.TIndex)
|
||||
|
||||
echo a == b # works!
|
||||
|
||||
In the example the generic ``==`` for tuples uses the ``==`` operators of the
|
||||
tuple's components. However, the ``==`` for the ``TIndex`` type is
|
||||
defined *after* the ``==`` for tuples; yet the example compiles as the
|
||||
instantiation takes the currently defined symbols into account too.
