If a module has two or more import_module or use_module declarations
for the same module, (typically, but not always, one being in its interface
and one in its implementation), generate an informational message about
each redundant declaration if --warn-unused-imports is enabled.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
We used to record the set of imported/used modules, and the set of
modules imported/used in the interface of the current module. However,
these sets
- did not record the distinction between imports and uses;
- did not allow distinction between single and multiple imports/uses;
- did not record the locations of the imports/uses.
The first distinction was needed only by module_qual.m, which *did*
pay attention to it; the other two were not needed at all.
To generate messages for imports/uses shadowing other imports/uses,
we need all three, so change the data structure storing such information
for *direct* imports to one that records all three of the above kinds
of information. (For imports made by read-in interface and optimization
files, the old set of modules approach is fine, and this diff leaves
the set of thus *indirectly* imported module names alone.)
compiler/unused_imports.m:
Use the extra information now available to generate a
severity_informational message about any import or use that is made
redundant by an earlier, more general import or use.
Fix two bugs in the code that generated warnings for just plain unused
modules.
(1) It did not consider that a use of the builtin type char justified
an import of char.m, but without that import, the type is not visible.
(2) It scanned cons_ids in goals in procedure bodies, but did not scan
cons_ids that have been put into the const_struct_db. (I did not update
the code here when I added the const_struct_db.)
Also, add a (hopefully temporary) workaround for a bug in
make_hlds_passes.m, which is noted below.
However, there are at least three problems that prevent us from enabling
--warn-unused-imports by default.
(1) In some places, the import of a module is used only by clauses for
a predicate that also has foreign procs. When compiled in a grade that
selects one of those foreign_procs as the implementation of the predicate,
the clauses are discarded *without* being added to the HLDS at all.
This leads unused_imports.m to generate an uncalled-for warning in such
cases. To fix this, we would need to preserve the Mercury clauses for
*all* predicates, even those with foreign procs, and do all the semantic
checks on them before throwing them away. (I tried to do this once, and
failed, but the task should be easier after the item list change.)
(2) We have two pieces of code to generate import warnings. The one in
unused_imports.m operates on the HLDS after type and mode checking,
while module_qual.m operates on the parse tree before the creation of
the HLDS. The former is more powerful, since it knows e.g. what types and
modes are used in the bodies of predicates, and hence can generate warnings
about an import being unused *anywhere* in a module, as opposed to just
unused in its interface.
If --warn-unused-imports is enabled, we will get two separate set of
reports about an interface import being unused in the interface,
*unless* we get a type or mode error, in which case unused_imports.m
won't be invoked. But in case we do get such errors, we don't want to
throw away the warnings from module_qual.m. We could store them and
throw them away only after we know we won't need them, or just get
the two modules to generate identical error_specs for each warning,
so that the sort_and_remove_dups of the error specs will do the
throwing away for us for free, if we get that far.
(3) The valid/bug100.m test case was added as a regression test for a bug
that was fixed in module_qual.m. However the bug is still present in
unused_imports.m.
compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
Give hlds_module.m the extra information it now needs for each item_avail.
Add an XXX for a bug that cannot be fixed right now: the setting of
the status of abstract instances to abstract_imported. (The "abstract"
part is correct; the "imported" part may not be.)

Delete unneeded imports. Many of these shadow other imports, and some
are just plain unneeded, as shown by --warn-unused-imports. In a few
modules, there were a *lot* of unneeded imports, but most had just
one or two.
In a few cases, removing an import from a module, because it *itself*
does not need it, required adding that same import to those of its
submodules which *do* need it.
In a few cases, conform to other changes above.

tests/*/*.{m,*exp}:
Delete unneeded imports, and update any expected error messages
to expect the now-smaller line numbers.
The effect on performance in typical cases is more complex. On some speedtests,
I got a speedup; on others, a slowdown. However, since the new code does
strictly less work, I am pretty sure that the true overall effect is a
very slight speedup.
compiler/delay_info.m:
Replace a list which is appended to at the end with a cord.
When waking up all the pending goals in the current conjunction,
do them all at once, not one by one.
Give some types and fields better names.
Do not export the invariant checking predicate, since it is not needed
elsewhere.

Switch from using set(prog_var), which is represented using set_ordlist,
to set_of_progvar, which is represented using tree_bitset, for most sets
of variables in the compiler, including the nonlocals sets in goal_infos.
This diff yields about a 5% speedup when compiling the training_cars_full.m
stress test, but also about a 1% slowdown on tools/speedtest. Both of these
are with the current default state in which tree_bitset is compiled with
a whole bunch of sanity checks. If these are disabled, we get roughly a 1%
speedup on tools/speedtest. I intend to disable those sanity checks after
a shakedown period of a week or two in which the updated version of the

This diff changes a few types from being defined as equivalent to a pair
to being discriminated union types with their own function symbol. This
was motivated by an error message (one of many, but the one that broke
the camel's back) about "-" being used in an ambiguous manner. It will
reduce the number of such messages in the future, and will make compiler
data structures easier to inspect in the debugger.
The most important type changed by far is hlds_goal, whose function symbol
is now "hlds_goal". Second and third in importance are llds.instruction
(function symbol "llds_instr") and prog_item.m's item_and_context (function
symbol "item_and_context"). There are some others as well.
In several places, I rearranged predicates to factor the deconstruction of
goals into hlds_goal_expr and hlds_goal_into out of each clause into a single
point. In many places, I changed variable names that used "Goal" to refer
to just hlds_goal_exprs to use "GoalExpr" instead. I also changed variable
names that used "Item" to refer to item_and_contexts to use "ItemAndContext"
instead. This should make reading such code less confusing.
I renamed some function symbols and predicates to avoid ambiguities.
I only made one algorithmic change (at least intentionally).
In assertion.m, comparing two goals for equality now ignores goal_infos
for all kinds of goals, whereas previously it ignored them for most kinds
of goals, but for shorthand goals it was insisting on them being equal.
This seemed to me to be a bug. Pete, can you confirm this?

Improve the error messages generated for determinism errors involving committed
choice contexts. Previously, we printed a message to the effect that e.g.
a cc pred is called in context that requires all solutions, but we didn't say
*why* the context requires all solutions. We now keep track of all the goals
to the right that could fail, since it is these goals that may reject the first
solution of a committed choice goal.
The motivation for this diff was the fact that I found that locating the
failing goal can be very difficult if the conjunction to the right is
a couple of hundred lines long. This would have been a nontrivial problem,
since (a) unifications involving values of user-defined types are committed
choice goals, and (b) we can expect uses of user-defined types to increase.

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

Lots of changes to handle parent module dependencies,

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.

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/mode_util.m:
compiler/clause_to_proc.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
compiler/polymorphism.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
all the declarations in the module; it is used for
compiling sub-modules.
scripts/Mmake.rules:
scripts/Mmake.vars.in:
Add support for creating `.int0' and `.date0' files
by invoking mmc with `--make-private-interface'.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document `--make-private-interface' and the `.int0'
and `.date0' file extensions.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Document nested modules.
util/mdemangle.c:
profiler/demangle.m:
Demangle names with multiple module qualifiers.

tests/general/string_format_test.m:
tests/general/string_format_test.exp:
tests/general/string__format_test.m:
tests/general/string__format_test.exp:
tests/general/.cvsignore:
Change the `:- module string__format_test' declaration in
`string__format_test.m' to `:- module string_format_test',
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.
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.m:
tests/invalid/missing_interface_import.err_exp:
Regression test to check that the compiler reports
errors for missing `import_module' in the interface section.
tests/invalid/*.err_exp:
tests/warnings/unused_args_test.exp:
tests/warnings/unused_import.exp:
Update the expected diagnostics output for the test cases to
reflect a few minor changes to the warning messages.

Implemented a :- use_module directive. This is the same as
:- import_module, except all uses of the imported items
must be explicitly module qualified.
:- use_module is implemented by ensuring that unqualified versions
of items only get added to the HLDS symbol tables if they were imported
using import_module.
Indirectly imported items (from `.int2' files) and items declared in `.opt'
files are treated as if they were imported with use_module, since all uses
of them should be module qualified.
compiler/module_qual.m
Keep two sets of type, mode and inst ids, those which can
be used without qualifiers and those which can't.
Renamed some predicates which no longer have unique names since
'__' became a synonym for ':'.
Made mq_info_set_module_used check whether the current item is in
the interface, rather than relying on its caller to do the check.
Removed init_mq_info_module, since make_hlds.m now uses the
mq_info built during the module qualification pass.
compiler/prog_data.m
Added a pseudo-declaration `used', same as `imported' except uses of
the following items must be module qualified.
Added a type need_qualifier to describe whether uses of an item
need to be module qualified.
compiler/make_hlds.m
Keep with the import_status whether current item was imported
using a :- use_module directive.
Use the mq_info structure passed in instead of building a new one.
Ensure unqualified versions of constructors only get added to the
cons_table if they can be used without qualification.
compiler/hlds_module.m
Added an extra argument to predicate_table_insert of type
need_qualifier.
Only add predicates to the name and name-arity indices if they
can be used without qualifiers.
Changed the structure of the module-name-arity index, so that
lookups can be made without an arity, such as when type-checking
module qualified higher-order predicate constants. This does not
change the interface to the module_name_arity index.
Factored out some common code in predicate_table_insert which
applies to both predicates and functions.
compiler/hlds_pred.m
Removed the opt_decl import_status. It isn't needed any more
since all uses of items declared in .opt files must now be
module qualified.
Added some documentation about when the clauses_info is valid.
compiler/intermod.m
Ensure that predicate and function calls in the `.opt' file are
module qualified. Use use_module instead of import_module in
`.opt' files.
compiler/modules.m
Handle use_module directives.
Report a warning if both use_module and import_module declarations
exist for the same module.
compiler/mercury_compile.m
Collect inter-module optimization information before module
qualification, since it can't cause conflicts any more. This means
that the mq_info structure built in module_qual.m can be reused in
make_hlds.m, instead of building a new one.
compiler/prog_out.m
Add a predicate prog_out__write_module_list, which was moved
here from module_qual.m.
compiler/typecheck.m
Removed code to check that predicates declared in `.opt' files
were being used appropriately, since this is now handled by
use_module.
compiler/*.m
Added missing imports, mostly for prog_data and term.

Enable the code to treat `__' as an alternative syntax for module
qualification, after fixing various places in the compiler where
we use `__' in ways that are incompatible with this.
compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_goal.m:
Uncomment the code to handle `__' as module qualification.
compiler/intermod.m:
compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/modecheck_unify.m:
Fix bugs in the handling of module qualified higher-order terms.

was first moved from code_gen.m to pragma_c_gen.m).
compiler/llds.m:
s/llds__proc_id/llds_proc_id/g
The reason for this was to avoid ambiguity between proc_id

compiler/quantification.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_to_c.m:

in quantification.m and goal_util__goal_vars in goal_util.m.
compiler/dupelim.m:
compiler/optimize.m:
s/dupelim__main/dupelim_main/g
The reason for this change is that a program can only
have one main/2 predicate.
compiler/prog_io_dcg.m:
Remove the old "temporary hack" to strip off and ignore
io__gc_call/1, since the new handling of `__' broke it.
It was only useful for optimizing NU-Prolog performance,
which we don't care about anymore.

where predicates from other modules (e.g. term__context_init)
are defined in mercury_builtin because they are needed for
type_to_term and term_to_type. llds_out.m: don't put
`mercury_builtin' in the mangled names for those symbols.
base_type_info.m: handle types whose status is "imported"
in their own module.

Two changes to make mode analysis handle erroneous goals.
1. Fix a bug in mode analysis where it reported a "map__lookup failed" error
for `query(X) :- test(X), gen(X).' if gen/1 had determinism erroneous.
The reason it did this was that in this case mode analysis was failing
to wake up all of the pending goals before leaving the conjunction.
The fix was to wake up all the goals at once, rather than waking them
up one at a time.
delay_info.m:
Replace the old exported predicate delay_info__wakeup_goal
with a new predicate delay_info_wakeup_goals that returns
a list of all the goals woken.
modes.m, transform.m:
Call delay_info__wakeup_goals instead of delay_info__wakeup_goal.
2. Fix another potential bug in mode analysis - if the instmap becomes
unreachable, then we must make sure we wake up all delayed goals.
delay_info.m:
Add new predicate delay_info__bind_all_vars.
mode_info.m:
Change mode_info_set_instmap so that it will call
delay_info__bind_all_vars if the instmap is `unreachable'.
frameopt:
Look inside blocks introduced by value numbering when looking
restorations of succip.
value_number, opt_util:
If we are using conservative garbage collection, disable value
numbering for blocks that allocate more than one cell on the heap.
This allows value numbering of most blocks to work in the absence
of -DALL_INTERIOR_POINTERS.
all other source files:
Clean up "blank" lines that nevertheless contain space or tab
characters.
compiler/*:
Add copyright messages.
Change all occurences of *.nl in comments to *.m.
compiler/mercury_compile.pp:
Change the output to the .dep files to use *.m rather than *.nl.
(NOTE: this means that `mmake' will not work any more if you
call your files *.nl!!!)
hlds.nl, hlds_out.nl, det_analysis.nl:
Remove the unused `declared_determinsm' field in the goal_info.
Rename the `inferred_determinism' field as just `determism'.
Add a new field `local_determinism'. In det_analysis.nl,
Plug the contents of the new `local_determinsm' field in the goal_info
into the computation of the determinism for each goal.
det_analysis.nl, fix_errs.sed:
For the cases which we currently don't handle correctly,
generate incorrect code in preference to generating spurious
error messages (we still have to handle these cases sometime,
but this means that we can deal with them one at a time).
arg_info.nl, builtins.nl, code_gen.nl, delay_info.nl, det_analysis.nl,
getopt.nl, globals.nl, make_hlds.nl, modes.nl, mode_util.nl, stack.nl,
string.nl, string.nu.nl, term.nl, undef_modes.nl, varset.nl:
Fix determinism errors uncovered by the changes in the determinism
analysis.
mercury_builtin.nl:
Use det_pred(...), semidet_pred(...), nondet_pred(...)
rather than call_pred(...) for the higher-order predicate modes.
prog_io.nl, io.nl, varset.nl, etc.
Add determinism annotations.
hlds.nl, make_hlds.nl, LOTS of other files:
Reorganize the way the predicate table works.
Make hlds.nl a bit more modular.
Change call/4 to call/5.
Remove all/2 from the hlds.
Changed pred_id to an integer.
Added pred_call_id which is similar to the old pred_id.
Makefile:
Add a rule for creating *.hlds_dump.
array.nl:
Fix determinism error.
det_analysis.nl:
Fix a bug in printing determinism warnings.
fix_errors.sed:
Modify this so it allows all the `inferred nondet' determinism
errors but none of the `inferred semidet' ones.
llds.nl:
Rename llds__pred_mode_id as llds__proc_id.
mode_errors.nl:
Finally got around to implementing Zoltan's suggestions
about the error messages from the mode analysis.
If an error occurs in a conjunction, only one error message
is printed out - the first error which doesn't relate to
a head unification.
modes.nl:
Handle X = f(X) properly. NB: determinism analysis and code
generation still get it wrong!
undef_modes, undef_insts:
I've broken the error message code, since it's not easy
to print pred_ids. I just changed it so that it didn't
print the pred_ids out. Should fix this properly at some stage...
modes.nl, mode_errors.nl, delay_info.nl, mode_info.nl, undef_modes.nl:
Break modes.nl up into separate modules.
toplevel.nl (plus LOTS of other files):
Change the way module imports are handled. Fix the resulting missing
import problems found in most of the modules.
mode_util.nl:
Add predicate inst_is_bound_to_functors/3.
switch_detection.nl:
New file. Still very incomplete.
meta.nl:
Remove. This file was old junk.
