* Implement variance for Objective-C type parameters.Douglas Gregor2015-07-071-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce co- and contra-variance for Objective-C type parameters, which allows us to express that (for example) an NSArray is covariant in its type parameter. This means that NSArray<NSMutableString *> * is a subtype of NSArray<NSString *> *, which is expected of the immutable Foundation collections. Type parameters can be annotated with __covariant or __contravariant to make them co- or contra-variant, respectively. This feature can be detected by __has_feature(objc_generics_variance). Implements rdar://problem/20217490. llvm-svn: 241549
* Substitute type arguments into uses of Objective-C interface members.Douglas Gregor2015-07-071-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When messaging a method that was defined in an Objective-C class (or category or extension thereof) that has type parameters, substitute the type arguments for those type parameters. Similarly, substitute into property accesses, instance variables, and other references. This includes general infrastructure for substituting the type arguments associated with an ObjCObject(Pointer)Type into a type referenced within a particular context, handling all of the substitutions required to deal with (e.g.) inheritance involving parameterized classes. In cases where no type arguments are available (e.g., because we're messaging via some unspecialized type, id, etc.), we substitute in the type bounds for the type parameters instead. Example: @interface NSSet<T : id<NSCopying>> : NSObject <NSCopying> - (T)firstObject; @end void f(NSSet<NSString *> *stringSet, NSSet *anySet) { [stringSet firstObject]; // produces NSString* [anySet firstObject]; // produces id<NSCopying> (the bound) } When substituting for the type parameters given an unspecialized context (i.e., no specific type arguments were given), substituting the type bounds unconditionally produces type signatures that are too strong compared to the pre-generics signatures. Instead, use the following rule: - In covariant positions, such as method return types, replace type parameters with “id” or “Class” (the latter only when the type parameter bound is “Class” or qualified class, e.g, “Class<NSCopying>”) - In other positions (e.g., parameter types), replace type parameters with their type bounds. - When a specialized Objective-C object or object pointer type contains a type parameter in its type arguments (e.g., NSArray<T>*, but not NSArray<NSString *> *), replace the entire object/object pointer type with its unspecialized version (e.g., NSArray *). llvm-svn: 241543
* Handle Objective-C type arguments.Douglas Gregor2015-07-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Objective-C type arguments can be provided in angle brackets following an Objective-C interface type. Syntactically, this is the same position as one would provide protocol qualifiers (e.g., id<NSCopying>), so parse both together and let Sema sort out the ambiguous cases. This applies both when parsing types and when parsing the superclass of an Objective-C class, which can now be a specialized type (e.g., NSMutableArray<T> inherits from NSArray<T>). Check Objective-C type arguments against the type parameters of the corresponding class. Verify the length of the type argument list and that each type argument satisfies the corresponding bound. Specializations of parameterized Objective-C classes are represented in the type system as distinct types. Both specialized types (e.g., NSArray<NSString *> *) and unspecialized types (NSArray *) are represented, separately. llvm-svn: 241542
* Parsing, semantic analysis, and AST for Objective-C type parameters.Douglas Gregor2015-07-071-0/+30
Produce type parameter declarations for Objective-C type parameters, and attach lists of type parameters to Objective-C classes, categories, forward declarations, and extensions as appropriate. Perform semantic analysis of type bounds for type parameters, both in isolation and across classes/categories/extensions to ensure consistency. Also handle (de-)serialization of Objective-C type parameter lists, along with sundry other things one must do to add a new declaration to Clang. Note that Objective-C type parameters are typedef name declarations, like typedefs and C++11 type aliases, in support of type erasure. Part of rdar://problem/6294649. llvm-svn: 241541
