82378c381b Allow polymorphic ground insts. This change assumes that all inst
Estimated hours taken: 80

Allow polymorphic ground insts.  This change assumes that all inst
parameters in the mode declaration for a predicate or function are
constrained to be ground-shared.  This is a temporary measure until we
work out a nice syntax to allow the programmer to tell the compiler that
certain inst parameters may be treated as ground insts.  Since we don't
currently support unconstrained inst parameters anyway, this shouldn't
cause a problem.

	TODO:
		- Add syntax, something like `:- mode p(in(I)) <= ground(I).',
		  to specify that an inst parameter represents a ground inst.
		- Allow abstract ground insts that are treated in a similar
		  way to what we've done here with ground inst parameters.
		- Make mode checking more efficient (i.e. rewrite the mode
		  system).

compiler/inst.m:
	Add a new alternative for ground insts:
		`constrained_inst_var(inst_var)'.
	Define the type `inst_var_sub'.

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Change inst_matches_initial so that it:
		- handles constrained_inst_vars correctly;
		- returns the inst_var substitutions necessary for the call;
		- handles inst_matches_initial(ground(...), bound(...), ...)
		  properly (this requires knowing the type of the variable).

	  The last change has also been made for inst_matches_final
	  and inst_matches_binding.  However, the check is disabled for
	  now because, without alias tracking, the mode checker
	  becomes too conservative.

46a8da81cb Implement builtin tuple types, similar to those in Haskell.
Estimated hours taken: 30

Implement builtin tuple types, similar to those in Haskell.

Tuples are constructed and deconstructed using
the syntax X = {Arg1, Arg2, ...}.
Tuples have type `{Arg1, Arg2, ...}'.

Unary tuples (X = {Arg}) do work, unlike in Haskell. The rationale
for this is that it is useful to be able to construct unary tuples
to be passed to a polymorphic predicate which uses std_util__deconstruct
to deal with a tuple of any arity. Since this is probably the only
use for unary tuples, it's not really worth the effort of treating
them as no_tag types, so we don't.

The type-infos for tuples have the same structure as for higher-order
types. There is a single type_ctor_info for tuples, and the arity
is placed before the argument type_infos.

library/parser.m:
	Change the way '{}/N' terms are parsed, so that the parsed
	representation is consistent with the way other functors
	are represented (previously the arguments were left as
	unparsed ','/2 terms). This avoids special case code
	in prog_io__parse_qualified_term, term__term_to_type
	and term__type_to_term.

compiler/prog_io_dcg.m:
compiler/prog_io_util.m:
	Handle the new structure of '{}/N' terms when parsing DCG escapes
	by converting the argument list back into a single ','/2 term.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	Treat tuples as a builtin type.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Typecheck tuple constructors.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Propagate types into tuple bound insts.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add type_is_tuple/2 and type_id_is_tuple/1 to identify tuple types.
	Add tuples to the list of types which are not atomic types.

	Handle tuple types in `type_constructors' and
	`get_cons_id_arg_types' and `switch_type_num_functors'.

compiler/tabling.m:
	Handle tabling of tuples.

compiler/term_util.m:
	Handle tuples in the code to compute functor norms.

compiler/magic_util.m:
compiler/rl.m:
compiler/rl_key.m:
	Handle tuple types in the Aditi back end.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
library/io.m:
library/term_io.m:
	Handle output of '{}/N' terms.

compiler/higher_order.m:
compiler/simplify.m:
	Don't specialize complicated unifications of tuple
	types into calls to a specific unification procedure --
	even if the procedure were implemented, it probably
	wouldn't be that much more efficient.

compiler/unify_proc.m:
	Generate unification procedures for complicated unifications
	of tuples (other than in-in unifications). These are generated
	lazily as required.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Export add_special_pred for use by unify_proc.m.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Export polymorphism__process_pred for use by unify_proc.m.

compiler/bytecode_gen.m:
compiler/code_util.m:
compiler/ml_code_util.m:
	Handle unify procedure names and tags for tuple types.

compiler/mlds_to_c.m:
	Output tuple types as MR_Tuple.

compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
	Compute the field types for tuples.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
compiler/pseudo_type_info.m:
	Treat tuple type_infos in a similar way to higher-order type_infos.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Document how cons_ids for tuple types are represented.

compiler/switch_gen.m:
compiler/table_gen.m:
	Add tuple types to switches on type_util__builtin_type.

compiler/llds_out.m:
util/mdemangle.c:
profiler/demangle.m:
	Transform items named "{}" to "f_tuple" when mangling symbols.

library/builtin.m:
	Define the type_ctor_info used for tuples.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Add `builtin_unify_tuple/2' and `builtin_compare_tuple/3',
	both of which abort. All comparisons and in-in unifications
	of tuples are performed by the generic unification functions
	in runtime/mercury_ho_call.c and runtime/mercury.c.

library/std_util.m:
	Implement the various RTTI functions for tuples.

	Encode tuple `TypeCtorDesc's in a similar way to that
	used for higher-order types. This has the consequence that the limit
	on the arity of higher-order types is now MAX_VIRTUAL_REG,
	rather than 2*MAX_VIRTUAL_REG.

	Avoid calling MR_GC_free for the type-info vector returned
	from ML_expand() for tuples because unlike the vectors
	for du types, it is not copied.

runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
	Add macros for extracting fields from tuple type-infos.
	These just call the macros for extracting fields from higher-order
	type-infos.

	Add a macro MR_type_ctor_rep_is_variable_arity(), which
	returns TRUE for tuples and higher-order types.

	The distinction between higher-order and first-order types
	is now misnamed -- the distinction is really between fixed arity
	types and builtin variable arity types. I'm not sure whether
	it's worth renaming everything.

runtime/mercury.h:
runtime/mercury.c:
	Define unification and comparison of tuples in
	high-level code grades.

runtime/mercury_deep_copy_body.h:
runtime/mercury_make_type_info_body.h:
runtime/mercury_tabling.c:
runtime/mercury_unify_compare_body.h:
	Handle tuple types in code which traverses data using RTTI.

401298c013 Make the syntax for defining modes and insts similar to type equivalence.
Estimated hours taken: 2

Make the syntax for defining modes and insts similar to type equivalence.

Old syntax:
	:- inst foo = someinstdefn.
	:- mode foo :: someinst -> someotherinst.

New syntax:
	:- inst foo == someinstdefn.
	:- mode foo == someinst >> someotherinst.

The old syntax is still supported.  For `::' and `->' it may eventually
be phased out (but it doesn't cause many problems apart from possible
confusion of users, so it's a low priority).

In the case of `:- inst' we could already use `==' or `=', however we
now make `==' the standard syntax.  Again, we support both and probably
will for quite some time.

NEWS:
	Mention these changes.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	Make `==' the standard operator for `:- inst <InstDefn>.'
	declarations.

	Make `==' and `>>' the standard operators for
	`:- mode foo == someinst >> someotherinst'.
	`::' and `->' are still supported.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
	Make `>>' the standard operator for inline mode declarations.
	`->' is still supported.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Update the syntax in the reference manual.
	Mention that `::' and `->' is deprecated.

tests/valid/Mmakefile:
tests/valid/mode_syntax.m:
	Add a new test of the new syntax.

	Fix a typo (missing quote) in the verbose messages for fact tables.

2725b1a331 Aditi update syntax, type and mode checking.
Estimated hours taken: 220

Aditi update syntax, type and mode checking.

Change the hlds_goal for constructions in preparation for
structure reuse to avoid making multiple conflicting changes.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Merge `higher_order_call' and `class_method_call' into a single
	`generic_call' goal type. This also has alternatives for the
	various Aditi builtins for which type declarations can't
	be written.

	Remove the argument types field from higher-order/class method calls.
	It wasn't used often, and wasn't updated by optimizations
	such as inlining. The types can be obtained from the vartypes
	field of the proc_info.

	Add a `lambda_eval_method' field to lambda_goals.

	Add a field to constructions to identify which RL code fragment should
	be used for an top-down Aditi closure.

	Add fields to constructions to hold structure reuse information.
	This is currently ignored -- the changes to implement structure
	reuse will be committed to the alias branch.
	This is included here to avoid lots of CVS conflicts caused by
	changing the definition of `hlds_goal' twice.

	Add a field to `some' goals to specify whether the quantification
	can be removed. This is used to make it easier to ensure that
	indexes are used for updates.

	Add a field to lambda_goals to describe whether the modes were
	guessed by the compiler and may need fixing up after typechecking
	works out the argument types.

	Add predicate `hlds_goal__generic_call_id' to work out a call_id
	for a generic call for use in error messages.

compiler/purity.m:
compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Fill in the modes of Aditi builtin calls and closure constructions.
	This needs to know which are the `aditi__state' arguments, so
	it must be done after typechecking.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Added `:- type sym_name_and_arity ---> sym_name/arity'.

	Add a type `lambda_eval_method', which describes how a closure
	is to be executed. The alternatives are normal Mercury execution,
	bottom-up execution by Aditi and top-down execution by Aditi.

compiler/prog_out.m:
	Add predicate `prog_out__write_sym_name_and_arity', which
	replaces duplicated inline code in a few places.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add a `lambda_eval_method' field to `pred_const' cons_ids and
	`pred_closure_tag' cons_tags.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Remove type `pred_call_id', replace it with type `simple_call_id',
	which combines a `pred_or_func' and a `sym_name_and_arity'.

	Add a type `call_id' which describes all the different types of call,
	including normal calls, higher-order and class-method calls
	and Aditi builtins.

	Add `aditi_top_down' to the type `marker'.

	Remove `aditi_interface' from type `marker'. Interfacing to
	Aditi predicates is now handled by `generic_call' hlds_goals.

	Add a type `rl_exprn_id' which identifies a predicate to
	be executed top-down by Aditi.
	Add a `maybe(rl_exprn_id)'  field to type `proc_info'.

	Add predicate `adjust_func_arity' to convert between the arity
	of a function to its arity as a predicate.

	Add predicates `get_state_args' and `get_state_args_det' to
	extract the DCG state arguments from an argument list.

	Add predicate `pred_info_get_call_id' to get a `simple_call_id'
	for a predicate for use in error messages.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Write the new representation for call_ids.

	Add a predicate `hlds_out__write_call_arg_id' which
	replaces similar code in mode_errors.m and typecheck.m.

compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
	Add support for `aditi_bottom_up' and `aditi_top_down' annotations
	on pred expressions.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Add predicates
	- `prog_io_util:parse_name_and_arity' to parse `SymName/Arity'
		(moved from prog_io_pragma.m).
	- `prog_io_util:parse_pred_or_func_name_and_arity to parse
		`pred SymName/Arity' or `func SymName/Arity'.
	- `prog_io_util:parse_pred_or_func_and_args' to parse terms resembling
		a clause head (moved from prog_io_pragma.m).

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add support for `aditi_bottom_up' and `aditi_top_down' annotations
	on higher-order types.

	Add predicates `construct_higher_order_type',
	`construct_higher_order_pred_type' and
	`construct_higher_order_func_type' to avoid some code duplication.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Add predicate `unused_mode/1', which returns `builtin:unused'.
	Add functions `aditi_di_mode/0', `aditi_ui_mode/0' and
	`aditi_uo_mode/0' which return `in', `in', and `out', but will
	be changed to return `di', `ui' and `uo' when alias tracking
	is implemented.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Add predicate `goal_util__generic_call_vars' which returns
	any arguments to a generic_call which are not in the argument list,
	for example the closure passed to a higher-order call or
	the typeclass_info for a class method call.

compiler/llds.m:
compiler/exprn_aux.m:
compiler/dupelim.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
compiler/opt_debug.m:
	Add builtin labels for the Aditi update operations.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add predicate predicate_table_search_pf_sym, used for finding
	possible matches for a call with the wrong number of arguments.

compiler/intermod.m:
	Don't write predicates which build `aditi_top_down' goals,
	because there is currently no way to tell importing modules
	which RL code fragment to use.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Obey the `cannot_remove' field of explicit quantification goals.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Parse Aditi updates.

	Don't typecheck clauses for which syntax errors in Aditi updates
	are found - this avoids spurious "undefined predicate `aditi_insert/3'"
	errors.

	Factor out some common code to handle terms of the form `Head :- Body'.
	Factor out common code in the handling of pred and func expressions.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Typecheck Aditi builtins.

	Allow the argument types of matching predicates to be adjusted
	when typechecking the higher-order arguments of Aditi builtins.

	Change `typecheck__resolve_pred_overloading' to take a list of
	argument types rather than a `map(var, type)' and a list of
	arguments to allow a transformation to be performed on the
	argument types before passing them.

compiler/error_util.m:
	Move the part of `report_error_num_args' which writes
	"wrong number of arguments (<x>; expected <y>)" from
	typecheck.m for use by make_hlds.m when reporting errors
	for Aditi builtins.

compiler/modes.m:
compiler/unique_modes.m:
compiler/modecheck_call.m:
	Modecheck Aditi builtins.

compiler/lambda.m:
	Handle the markers for predicates introduced for
	`aditi_top_down' and `aditi_bottom_up' lambda expressions.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Add extra type_infos to `aditi_insert' calls
	describing the tuple to insert.

compiler/call_gen.m:
	Generate code for Aditi builtins.

compiler/unify_gen.m:
compiler/bytecode_gen.m:
	Abort on `aditi_top_down' and `aditi_bottom_up' lambda
	expressions - code generation for them is not yet implemented.

compiler/magic.m:
	Use the `aditi_call' generic_call rather than create
	a new procedure for each Aditi predicate called from C.

compiler/rl_out.pp:
compiler/rl_gen.m:
compiler/rl.m:
	Move some utility code used by magic.m and call_gen.m into rl.m.

	Remove an XXX comment about reference counting being not yet
	implemented - Evan has fixed that.

library/ops.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
doc/transition_guide.texi:
	Add unary prefix operators `aditi_bottom_up' and `aditi_top_down',
	used as qualifiers on lambda expressions.
	Add infix operator `==>' to separate the tuples in an
	`aditi_modify' call.

compiler/follow_vars.m:
	Thread a `map(prog_var, type)' through, needed because
	type information is no longer held in higher-order call goals.

compiler/table_gen.m:
	Use the `make_*_construction' predicates in hlds_goal.m
	to construct constants.

compiler/*.m:
	Trivial changes to add extra fields to hlds_goal structures.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Document Aditi updates.

	Use @samp{pragma base_relation} instead of
	@samp{:- pragma base_relation} throughout the Aditi documentation
	to be consistent with other parts of the reference manual.

tests/valid/aditi_update.m:
tests/valid/aditi.m:
	Test case.

	for Aditi compilation such as `aditi__state' and the modes
	`aditi_di', `aditi_uo' and `aditi_ui'. Installing extras/aditi/aditi.m
	somewhere would remove the need for these.

6af76f74ea Move some declarations around and make some other minor changes in order
Estimated hours taken: 4

Move some declarations around and make some other minor changes in order
to reduce the number and complexity of the intermodule dependencies.
In particular, ensure that prog_data.m does not need to import
hlds*.m, purity.m, rl.m, or term_util.m.

Since we expect to have only one input language, but potentially many
different target languages, the general design principle that we have adopted
in order to minimize the number of dependencies, particularly cyclic ones,
is that modules which belong to an earlier stage of compilation should
not depend on modules which belong to a later stage of compilation.
However, that design principle has not been adhered to in many cases.
This change reduces the number of such cases.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Move definition of the types `eval_method' and `pred_or_func'
	from hlds_pred.m to prog_data.m.
	Add new type `mode_num' to prog_data.m, defined by
	`type mode_num == int', and change the proc_id argument of
	the `unused_args' pragma to instead use this type instead of proc_id.
	Delete the import of module hlds_pred from prog_data.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Move the definition of the type `determinism' from hlds_data.m to
	prog_data.m.  Delete the import of module hlds_data from prog_data.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/purity.m:
	Move the definition of the type `purity' from purity.m to prog_data.m.
	Add import of module prog_data to purity.m.
	Delete the import of module purity from prog_data.m.

	This is needed because purity.m imports hlds*.m and so by
	importing purity.m, prog_data.m was indirectly importing hlds*.m.

	(An possible alternative here would be to split purity.m into two
	parts, called say purity.m and check_purity.m; of these, only the
	second would import hlds*.m.  But that would be a significantly
	more complicated change.)

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/rl.m:
	Move the definition of the `index_spec' and `index_type' types from
	rl.m to prog_data.m.  Delete the import of module rl from prog_data.m.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add new types `pragma_arg_size_info' and `pragma_termination_info'
	to prog_data.m.  These are similar to the existing types
	`arg_size_info' and `termination_info' defined in term_util.m,
	except that they correspond more directly to what is actually
	used in `pragma termination_info' declarations.

compiler/term_util.m:
	Add new predicates `add_context_to_arg_size_info' and
	`add_context_to_pragma_termination_info' for converting
	the prog_data types to their corresponding term_util types.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
compiler/unused_args.m:
	Minor modifications to handle the change in the type of the
	mode number argument in `unused_args' pragmas, and in the types
	of the arg_size_info and termination_info arguments in
	`termination_info' pragmas.

User-guided type specialization.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
compiler/modules.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Handle `:- pragma type_spec'.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Factor out some common code to parse predicate names with arguments.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Added a field to the module_sub_info to hold information about
	user-requested type specializations, filled in by make_hlds.m
	and not used by anything after higher_order.m.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	For each `:- pragma type_spec' declaration, introduce a new predicate
	which just calls the predicate to be specialized with the
	specified argument types. This forces higher_order.m to produce
	the specialized versions.

compiler/higher_order.m:
	Process the user-requested type specializations first to ensure
	that they get the correct names.
	Allow partial matches against user-specified versions, e.g.
		map__lookup(map(int, list(int)), int, list(int)) matches
		map__lookup(map(int, V), int, V).
	Perform specialization where a typeclass constraint matches a
	known instance, but the construction of the typeclass_info is
	done in the calling module.
	Give slightly more informative progress messages.

compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:
	Remove specializations for dead procedures.

compiler/prog_io_util.m:
	Change the definition of the `maybe1' and `maybe_functor' types
	to avoid the need for copying to convert between `maybe1'
	and `maybe1(generic)'.
	Changed the interface of `make_pred_name_with_context' to allow
	creation of predicate names for type specializations which describe
	the type substitution.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Make the specification of pragma declarations in error
	messages consistent. (There are probably some more to
	be fixed elsewhere for termination and tabling).

compiler/intermod.m:
	Write type specialization pragmas for predicates declared
	in `.opt' files.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Export `mercury_output_item' for use by intermod.m.

compiler/options.m:
	Add an option `--user-guided-type-specialization' enabled
	with `-O2' or higher.

compiler/handle_options.m:
	`--type-specialization' implies `--user-guided-type-specialization'.

compiler/hlds_goal.m:
	Add predicates to construct constants. These are duplicated
	in several other places, I'll fix that as a separate change.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Added functions `int_type/0', `string_type/0', `float_type/0'
	and `char_type/0' which return the builtin types.
	These are duplicated in several other places,
	I'll fix that as a separate change.

library/private_builtin.m:
	Added `instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' to extract
	the typeclass_infos for a constraint on an instance declaration.
	This is useful for specializing class method calls.
	Added `thread_safe' to various `:- pragma c_code's.
	Added `:- pragma inline' declarations for `builtin_compare_*', which
	are important for user-guided type specialization. (`builtin_unify_*'
	are simple enough to go in the `.opt' files automatically).

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	`instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' does not need type_infos.
	Add `instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' to the
	list of `typeclass_info_manipulator's which higher_order.m
	can interpret.

5c955626f2 These changes make var' and term' polymorphic.
Estimated hours taken: 20

These changes make `var' and `term' polymorphic. This allows us to make
variables and terms representing types of a different type to those
representing program terms and those representing insts.

These changes do not *fix* any existing problems (for instance
there was a messy conflation of program variables and inst variables,
and where necessary I've just called varset__init(InstVarSet) with
an XXX comment).

NEWS:
	Mention the changes to the standard library.

library/term.m:
	Make term, var and var_supply polymorphic.
	Add new predicates:
		term__generic_term/1
		term__coerce/2
		term__coerce_var/2
		term__coerce_var_supply/2

library/varset.m:
	Make varset polymorphic.
	Add the new predicate:
		varset__coerce/2

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Introduce type equivalences for the different kinds of
	vars, terms, and varsets that we use (tvar and tvarset
	were already there but have been changed to use the
	polymorphic var and term).

	Also change the various kinds of items to use the appropriate
	kinds of var/varset.

compiler/*.m:
	Thousands of boring changes to make the compiler type correct
	with the different types for type, program and inst vars and
	varsets.

11d8161692 Add support for nested modules.
Estimated hours taken: 50

Add support for nested modules.

- module names may themselves be module-qualified
- modules may contain `:- include_module' declarations
  which name sub-modules
- a sub-module has access to all the declarations in the
  parent module (including its implementation section).

This support is not yet complete; see the BUGS and LIMITATIONS below.

LIMITATIONS
- source file names must match module names
	(just as they did previously)
- mmc doesn't allow path names on the command line any more
	(e.g. `mmc --make-int ../library/foo.m').
- import_module declarations must use the fully-qualified module name
- module qualifiers must use the fully-qualified module name
- no support for root-qualified module names
	(e.g. `:parent:child' instead of `parent:child').
- modules may not be physically nested (only logical nesting, via
  `include_module').

BUGS
- doesn't check that the parent module is imported/used before allowing
	import/use of its sub-modules.
- doesn't check that there is an include_module declaration in the
	parent for each module claiming to be a child of that parent
- privacy of private modules is not enforced

-------------------

NEWS:
	Mention that we support nested modules.

library/ops.m:
library/nc_builtin.nl:
library/sp_builtin.nl:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Add `include_module' as a new prefix operator.
	Change the associativity of `:' from xfy to yfx
	(since this made parsing module qualifiers slightly easier).

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add new `include_module' declaration.
	Change the `module_name' and `module_specifier' types
	from strings to sym_names, so that module names can
	themselves be module qualified.

compiler/modules.m:
	Add predicates module_name_to_file_name/2 and
	file_name_to_module_name/2.
	Lots of changes to handle parent module dependencies,
	to create parent interface (`.int0') files, to read them in,
	to output correct dependencies information for them to the
	`.d' and `.dep' files, etc.
	Rewrite a lot of the code to improve the readability
	(add comments, use subroutines, better variable names).
	Also fix a couple of bugs:
	- generate_dependencies was using the transitive implementation
	  dependencies rather than the transitive interface dependencies
	  to compute the `.int3' dependencies when writing `.d' files
	  (this bug was introduced during crs's changes to support
	  `.trans_opt' files)
	- when creating the `.int' file, it was reading in the
	  interfaces for modules imported in the implementation section,
	  not just those in the interface section.
	  This meant that the compiler missed a lot of errors.

library/graph.m:
library/lexer.m:
library/term.m:
library/term_io.m:
library/varset.m:
compiler/*.m:
	Add `:- import_module' declarations to the interface needed
	by declarations in the interface.  (The previous version
	of the compiler did not detect these missing interface imports,
	due to the above-mentioned bug in modules.m.)

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
	Change mercury_compile__maybe_grab_optfiles and
	intermod__grab_optfiles so that they grab the opt files for
	parent modules as well as the ones for imported modules.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Minor changes to handle parent module dependencies.
	(Also improve the wording of the warning about trans-opt
	dependencies.)

compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
	Ignore `:- include_module' declarations.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	A couple of small changes to handle nested module names.

compiler/prog_out.m:
compiler/prog_util.m:
	Add new predicates string_to_sym_name/3 (prog_util.m) and
	sym_name_to_string/{2,3} (prog_out.m).

compiler/*.m:
	Replace many occurrences of `string' with `module_name'.
	Change code that prints out module names or converts
	them to strings or filenames to handle the fact that
	module names are now sym_names intead of strings.
	Also change a few places (e.g. in intermod.m, hlds_module.m)
	where the code assumed that any qualified symbol was
	fully-qualified.

compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
	Move sym_name_and_args/3, parse_qualified_term/4 and
	parse_qualified_term/5 preds from prog_io_goal.m to prog_io.m,
	since they are very similar to the parse_symbol_name/2 predicate
	already in prog_io.m.  Rewrite these predicates, both
	to improve maintainability, and to handle the newly
	allowed syntax (module-qualified module names).
	Rename parse_qualified_term/5 as `parse_implicit_qualified_term'.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	Rewrite the handling of `:- module' and `:- end_module'
	declarations, so that it can handle nested modules.
	Add code to parse `include_module' declarations.

compiler/prog_util.m:
compiler/*.m:
	Add new predicates mercury_public_builtin_module/1 and
	mercury_private_builtin_module/1 in prog_util.m.
	Change most of the hard-coded occurrences of "mercury_builtin"
	to call mercury_private_builtin_module/1 or
	mercury_public_builtin_module/1 or both.

compiler/llds_out.m:
	Add llds_out__sym_name_mangle/2, for mangling module names.

compiler/special_pred.m:

compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/lambda.m:

	Move the predicates in_mode/1, out_mode/1, and uo_mode/1
	from special_pred.m to mode_util.m, and change various
	hard-coded definitions to instead call these predicates.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Ensure that the type names `type_info' and `typeclass_info' are
	module-qualified in the generated code.  This avoids a problem
	where the code generated by polymorphism.m was not considered
	type-correct, due to the type `type_info' not matching
	`mercury_builtin:type_info'.

compiler/check_typeclass.m:
	Simplify the code for check_instance_pred and
	get_matching_instance_pred_ids.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
	Disallow directory names in command-line arguments.

compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/modules.m:
	Add a `--make-private-interface' option.
	The private interface file `<module>.int0' contains

	Change the `:- module string__format_test' declaration in

	because with the original declaration the `__' was taken
	as a module qualifier, which lead to an error message.
	Hence rename the file accordingly, to avoid the warning
	about file name not matching module name.

9b7f11c6dd Reorganisation of modules to do with the inst data type.
Estimated hours taken: 20

Reorganisation of modules to do with the inst data type.

This is actually the first installment of the alias tracking mode
checker in disguise.  A very good disguise.  The rationale for
this reorganisation is to reduce coupling in the part of the mode
checker which is _not_ in this change (ie most of it).

Alias tracking requires a new kind of inst, alias(inst_key), where
an inst_key is a handle on some other sub-inst.  With it goes a
data structure in which to store dereferenced insts and all the
operations which go with it.  This code will go in the new module
inst.m so that it doesn't have to go in prog_data.m.  (I briefly
considered putting it in instmap.m however this introduces some
bad coupling since instmap.m imports hlds_module.m.  Putting it
in prog_data.m would cause hlds_*.m to depend on prog_data.m,
but we have designed things so that the dependencies go in the
other direction.)

The remainder of the reorganisation is a general cleanup: the
inst testing predicates (inst_is_*) have been moved out of
mode_util because they are not actually operations on modes at
all, and have been moved into inst_match.  inst_match has then
been split because otherwise it would be 2000 lines long and
will get significantly bigger when aliasing is added.  Roughly
speaking, any operations which create new insts from old ones
have been moved into a new module, inst_util while any operations
which test the values of insts remain in inst_match.

Also included are the removal of some NU-Prologisms since the
NU-Prolog version of the compiler is no longer supported.  Two
changes here:

	- Removal of some when declarations.
	- A gross hack in inst_is_*_2, where two copies of
	  the same inst were passed into the predicate so that
	  one could be switched on.  Thank NU-Prolog's lack of
	  common subexpression elimination.

compiler/inst.m:
	New module which contains the data types inst, uniqueness,
	pred_inst_info, bound_inst.

compiler/inst_util.m:
	New module which contains predicates which perform mode
	checking-like operations on insts.

	Moved in:
		abstractly_unify_inst, abstractly_unify_inst_functor,
		inst_merge, make_mostly_uniq_inst (from inst_match.m)

compiler/inst_match.m:
	Moved out:
		inst_merge, make_mostly_uniq_inst,
		abstractly_unify_inst, abstractly_unify_inst_functor
			(to inst_util.m)

	Moved in:
		inst_is_*, inst_list_is_*, bound_inst_list_is_*
			(from mode_util.m)

	Now exported:
		unique_matches_initial/2, unique_matches_final/2
		inst_contains_instname/3, pred_inst_matches/3
		(They are required by inst_util.m, and they are
		useful in their own right.)

compiler/instmap.m:
	instmap_delta_lookup_var/3 reincarnated as
	instmap_delta_search_var/3.  The reason for this change is
	that previously, instmap_delta_lookup_var simply returned
	`free' if the searched-for var did not occur in the
	instmap_delta.  This is somewhat non-obvious behaviour.
	instmap_delta_search_var/3 fails in such a situation.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Moved out:
		inst_is_*, inst_list_is_*, bound_inst_list_is_*
			(to inst_match.m)
		(These are not really operations on modes.)

compiler/modecheck_call.m:
	Moved in modecheck_higher_order_func_call/5, from modecheck_unify.m

compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
	Moved out modecheck_higher_order_func_call/5, to modecheck_call.m

91c4330db7 The first half of a change to introduce nondet pragma C goals.
Estimated hours taken: 12

The first half of a change to introduce nondet pragma C goals.
This half makes the necessary modifications to the HLDS; the next
half will modify the LLDS and emit it.

prog_data:
	Add a new pragma type for nondet pragma c_codes; these specify
	the names of a a bunch of variables to save across backtracking,
	and a list of label names to which backtracking may take place.

	Rename is_recursive to may_call_mercury, since this is a more
	direct expression of the meaning.

prog_io:
	Move much of the functionality to new files.

prog_io_dcg, prog_io_goal, prog_io_pragma, prog_io_util:
	New files, made up of pieces of prog_io.

hlds_goal:
	Add an extra argument to the pragma_c_goals to store the extra
	information present in the new type of pragma c_codes.

det_analysis:
