fixes #23898, supersedes #23966 and #23990 Since #20631 ambiguous type symbols in templates are rejected outright, now we generate a symchoice for type nodes if they're ambiguous, a generalization of what was done in #22375. This is done for generics as well. Symchoices also handle type symbols better now, ensuring their type is a `typedesc` type; this probably isn't necessary for everything to work but it makes the logic more robust. Similar to #23989, we have to prepare for the fact that ambiguous type symbols behave differently than normal type symbols and either error normally or relegate to other routine symbols if the symbol is being called. Generating a symchoice emulates this behavior, `semExpr` will find the type symbol first, but since the symchoice has other symbols, it will count as an ambiguous type symbol. I know it seems spammy to carry around an ambiguity flag everywhere, but in the future when we have something like #23104 we could just always generate a symchoice, and the symchoice itself would carry the info of whether the first symbol was ambiguous. But this could harm compiler performance/memory use, it might be better to generate it only when we have to, which in the case of type symbols is only when they're ambiguous.
This directory contains the test cases.
Each test must have a filename of the form: t*.nim
Note: Testament is only aware of tests under a directory (eg tests/foo/) and will ignore
top-level tests like tests/tbar.nim.
Specs
Each test can contain a spec in a discard """ ... """ block.
Check out the parseSpec procedure in the specs module for a full and reliable reference
action
Specifies what action this test should take.
Default: run
Options:
compile- compiles the module and fails the test if compilations fails.run- compiles and runs the module, fails the test if compilation or execution of test code fails.reject- compiles the module and fails the test if compilation succeeds.
There are certain spec keys that imply run, including output and
outputsub.
Categories
Each folder under this directory represents a test category, which can be
tested by running koch tests pcat <category> (or cat to avoid parallel
testing, which is slower).
The folder dll contains simple DLL tests.
The folder realtimeGC contains a test for validating that the realtime GC
can run properly without linking against the nimrtl.dll/so.
