metagn 8a4ee2b84f make expressions opt in to symchoices (#22716)
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.
