fixes #16700, fixes #20916, refs #24010 Fixes the instantiation issues for proc param default values encountered in #24010 by: 1. semchecking generic default param values with `inGenericContext` for #22029 and followups to apply (the bigger change in semtypes), 2. rejecting explicit generic instantiations with unresolved generic types inside `inGenericContext` (sigmatch change), 3. instantiating the default param values using `prepareNode` rather than an insufficient manual method (the bigger change in seminst). This had an important side effect of references to other parameters not working since they would be resolved as a symbol belonging to the uninstantiated original generic proc rather than the later instantiated proc. There is a more radical way to fix this which is generating ident nodes with `tyFromExpr` in specifically this context, but instead we just count them as belonging to the same proc in `hoistParamsUsedInDefault`. Other minor bugfixes: * To make the error message in t20883 make sense, we now give a "cannot instantiate" error when trying to instantiate a proc generic param with `tyFromExpr`. * Object constructors as default param values generated default values of private fields going through `evalConstExpr` more than once, but the VM doesn't mark the object fields as `nfSkipFieldChecking` which gives a "cannot access field" error. So the VM now marks object fields it generates as `nfSkipFieldChecking`. Not sure if this affects VM performance, don't see why it would. * The nkRecWhen changes in #24042 didn't cover the case where all conditions are constantly false correctly, this is fixed with a minor change. This isn't needed for this PR now but I encountered it after forgetting to `dec c.inGenericContext`.
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.
