This code was failing to compile with `Error: unhandled exception:
semmagic.nim(247, 5) operand.kind == tyTuple tyAlias [AssertionDefect]`
```nim
import std/typetraits
type
Bar[T] = T
Foo = Bar[tuple[a: int]]
echo Foo.tupleLen
```
Fix was just making `tupleLen` skip alias types also
fixes#24378
```nim
type Win = typeof(`body`)
doAssert not supportsCopyMem((int, Win))
```
`semAfterMacroCall` doesn't skip the children aliases types in the tuple
typedesc construction while the normal program seem to skip the aliases
types somewhere
`(int, Win)` is kept as `(int, alias string)` instead of expected `(int,
string)`
fixes#24203
`semTypeNode` is called twice for RHS'es of type sections,
[here](b0e6d28782/compiler/semstmts.nim (L1612))
and
[here](b0e6d28782/compiler/semstmts.nim (L1646)).
Each time `prev` is `s.typ`, but the assertion expects `prev == nil`
which is false since `s.typ` is not nil the second time. To fix this,
the `prev == nil` part of the assertion is removed.
The reason this only happens for types like `seq[int]`, `(int, int)` etc
is because they don't have syms: `semTypeIdent` attempts to directly
[replace the typedesc param
itself](b0e6d28782/compiler/semtypes.nim (L1916))
with the sym of the base type of the resolved typedesc type if it
exists, which means `semTypeNode` doesn't receive the typedesc param sym
to perform the assert.
refs #21682, refs #24038
The `rangeBase` typetrait added in #21682 which gives the base type of a
range type is now added publicly to `typetraits`. Previously it was only
privately used in `repr_v2` and in `enumutils` since #24052
(coincidentally I didn't see this until now). This is part of an effort
to make range types easier to work with in generics, as mentioned in
#24038. Its use combined with #24037 is also tested.
The condition for the "enum to enum conversion" warning is now also
restricted to conversions between different enum base types, i.e.
conversion between an enum type and a range type of itself doesn't give
a warning. I put this in this PR since the test gave the warning and so
works as a regression test.
fixes#23406, closes#23854, closes#23855 (test code of both compiles
but separate issue exists), refs #23432, follows #23411
In generic bodies, previously all regular `nkCall` nodes like `foo(a,
b)` were directly treated as generic statements and delayed immediately,
but other call kinds like `a.foo(b)`, `foo a, b` etc underwent
typechecking before making sure they have to be delayed, as implemented
in #22029. Since the behavior for `nkCall` was slightly buggy (as in
#23406), the behavior for all call kinds is now to call `semTypeExpr`.
However the vast majority of calls in generic bodies out there are
`nkCall`, and while there isn't a difference in the expected behavior,
this exposes many issues with the implementation started in #22029 given
how much more code uses it now. The portion of these issues that CI has
caught are fixed in this PR but it's possible there are more.
1. Deref expressions, dot expressions and calls to dot expressions now
handle and propagate `tyFromExpr`. This is most of the changes in
`semexprs`.
2. For deref expressions to work in `typeof`, a new type flag
`tfNonConstExpr` is added for `tyFromExpr` that calls `semExprWithType`
with `efInTypeof` on the expression instead of `semConstExpr`. This type
flag is set for every `tyFromExpr` type of a node that `prepareNode`
encounters, so that the node itself isn't evaluated at compile time when
just trying to get the type of the node.
3. Unresolved `static` types matching `static` parameters is now treated
the same as unresolved generic types matching `typedesc` parameters in
generic type bodies, it causes a failed match which delays the call
instantiation.
4. `typedesc` parameters now reject all types containing unresolved
generic types like `seq[T]`, not just generic param types by themselves.
(using `containsGenericType`)
5. `semgnrc` now doesn't leave generic param symbols it encounters in
generic type contexts as just identifiers, and instead turns them into
symbol nodes. Normally in generic procs, this isn't a problem since the
generic param symbols will be provided again at instantiation time (and
in fact creating symbol nodes causes issues since `seminst` doesn't
actually instantiate proc body node types).
But generic types can try to be instantiated early in `sigmatch` which
will give an undeclared identifier error when the param is not provided.
Nodes in generic types (specifically in `tyFromExpr` which should be the
only use for `semGenericStmt`) undergo full generic type instantiation
with `prepareNode`, so there is no issue of these symbols remaining as
uninstantiated generic types.
6. `prepareNode` now has more logic for which nodes to avoid
instantiating.
Subscripts and subscripts turned into calls to `[]` by `semgnrc` need to
avoid instantiating the first operand, since it may be a generic body
type like `Generic` in an expression like `Generic[int]`.
Dot expressions cannot instantiate their RHS as it may be a generic proc
symbol or even an undeclared identifier for generic param fields, but
have to instantiate their LHS, so calls and subscripts need to still
instantiate their first node if it's a dot expression.
This logic still isn't perfect and needs the same level of detail as in
`semexprs` for which nodes can be left as "untyped" for overloading/dot
exprs/subscripts to handle, but should handle the majority of cases.
Also the `efDetermineType` requirement for which calls become
`tyFromExpr` is removed and as a result `efDetermineType` is entirely
unused again.
Add a macro `enumLen` which is used to determine the number of items in
an enumeration type to the `typetraits.nim` module. Also, add unit tests
for it in the `ttypetraits.nim` module.

* typetraits: add support for nnkTypeOfExpr
* typetraits: don't wrap typedesc symbols in StaticParam
* typetraits: add nested generics support to genericParams
* typetraits: make genericParams understand array[I, T] whackiness
Also moved tests to ttypetraits
* typetraits: clarify comment on genericParams
* Error -> Defect for defects
The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective,
context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an
exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when
looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding
definition and digging through layers of inheritance.
With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible
to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set
a good example here.
* rename 'lenTuple' to 'tupleLen'
Rationale:
`lenTuple` is a tuple consisting of lengths (e.g. `(1, 5, 0)`),
`tupleLen` is a length of a tuple (e.g. `tupleLen((1, 5, 0) == 3`)
* rename 'lenVarargs' to 'varargsLen'
The same rationale as a previous commit. Consistency.
* fix deprecation; fix indentation
* git clone: use -q
* fix Warning: pragma before generic parameter list is deprecated; fix typo
* bugfix: sysTypeFromName("float64") was never cached
