Make `requiresInit` pragma to work for distinct types in addition to
objects. Tagging of distinct types with `requiresInit` pragma was
already supported, but its impact wasn't applied. Now its behavior when
applied on distinct types is as follows.
Given the following distinct type definitions:
```nim
type
DistinctObject {.requiresInit, borrow: `.`.} = distinct MyObject
DistinctString {.requiresInit.} = distinct string
```
The following code blocks will fail to compile:
```nim
var foo: DistinctFoo
foo.x = "test"
doAssert foo.x == "test"
```
```nim
var s: DistinctString
s = "test"
doAssert s == "test"
```
But these ones will compile successfully:
```nim
let foo = DistinctFoo(Foo(x: "test"))
doAssert foo.x == "test"
```
```nim
let s = "test"
doAssert s == "test"
```
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.
cmd
Specifies the Nim command to use for compiling the test.
There are a number of variables that are replaced in this spec option:
$target- the compilation target, e.g.c.$options- the options for the compiler.$file- the filename of the test.$filedir- the directory of the test file.
Example:
discard """
cmd: "nim $target --nimblePath:./nimbleDir/simplePkgs $options $file"
"""
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. It includes a C
client and platform specific build files for manual compilation.
