refs #22605 Sym choice nodes are now only allowed to pass through semchecking if contexts ask for them to (with `efAllowSymChoice`). Otherwise they are resolved or treated as ambiguous. The contexts that can receive symchoices in this PR are: * Call operands and addresses and emulations of such, which will subject them to overload resolution which will resolve them or fail. * Type conversion operands only for routine symchoices for type disambiguation syntax (like `(proc (x: int): int)(foo)`), which will resolve them or fail. * Proc parameter default values both at the declaration and during generic instantiation, which undergo type narrowing and so will resolve them or fail. This means unless these contexts mess up sym choice nodes should never leave the semchecking stage. This serves as a blueprint for future improvements to intermediate symbol resolution. Some tangential changes are also in this PR: 1. The `AmbiguousEnum` hint is removed, it was always disabled by default and since #22606 it only started getting emitted after the symchoice was soundly resolved. 2. Proc setter syntax (`a.b = c` becoming `` `b=`(a, c) ``) used to fully type check the RHS before passing the transformed call node to proc overloading. Now it just passes the original node directly so proc overloading can deal with its typechecking.
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.
