482105e074 Allow user-defined comparison functions using the syntax
Estimated hours taken: 10
Branches: main

Allow user-defined comparison functions using the syntax
:- type t ---> t where equality is t_equal, comparison is t_compare.

Allow user-defined equality and comparison for foreign types using the syntax
:- pragma foreign_type(c, t, "c_t") where
		equality is t_equal, comparison is t_compare.

17f53149a4 Implement `:- pragma reserve_tag(<TypeName>/<Arity>).'.
Estimated hours taken: 6
Branches: main

Implement `:- pragma reserve_tag(<TypeName>/<Arity>).'.
This has the same effect as the `--reserve-tag' option,
except that it only applies to specified type, rather than
to all types.

doc/reference_manual.texi:
	Document the new feature.
	(However, the documentation is currently commented out.)

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add `reserve_tag(sym_name, arity)' to the `pragma_type' type.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add a new boolean field to the representation of discriminated union
	type bodies to record whether or not the type has a reserved tag.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Add code to parse the new pragma.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Add code to process the new pragma:
	- check all the appropriate semantic restrictions:
		- the pragma must have the same visibility as the type
		- the type must be defined
		- the type must be a discriminated union type
	- warn if there are multiple such pragmas for the same type
	- call make_tags.m to recompute the tags used for the constructor.
	- record the presence of the reserve_tag pragma in the HLDS type
	  definition body

compiler/make_tags.m:
compiler/type_util.m:
	Add an extra argument to assign_constructor_tags (in make_tags.m)
	and type_constructors_should_be_no_tag (in type_util.m)
	to specify whether or not there was a `reserve_tag' pragma.
	Reserve a tag if either this argument or the global `reserve_tag'
	option is set.

compiler/intermod.m:
	Output a `:- reserve_tag' pragma whenever outputting a type
	to which such a pragma applies.

compiler/ml_type_gen.m:
compiler/ml_unify_gen.m:
	Ignore the reserved_tag field.
	XXX This means that the `reserve_tag' pragma (or the compiler
	    option) won't have much effect if --high-level-data is set.

0387a6e9c2 Improvements for `:- pragma foreign_type'.
Estimated hours taken: 10
Branches: main

Improvements for `:- pragma foreign_type'.
- Allow default Mercury definitions. The Mercury definition must define
  a discriminated union type. The constructors of the Mercury type are
  only visible in predicates which have implementations for all the
  foreign languages the type has implementations for. In all other
  predicates the type is treated as an abstract type (the check for
  this isn't quite right).
- Allow polymorphic foreign types.
- Don't require the `:- pragma foreign_type' for exported foreign types
  to be in the interface. We now only require that all definitions
  have the same visibility.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Allow polymorphic foreign types.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	Export code to parse the type name in a type definition for
	use by prog_io_pragma.m.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Handle Mercury definitions for foreign types.

	Separate out the code to add constructors and special predicates
	to the HLDS into a separate pass. For foreign types, we don't know
	what to add until all type definitions have been seen.

	Use the C definition for foreign types with `--target asm'.

compiler/modules.m:
	Distinguish properly between `exported' and `exported_to_submodules'.
	Previously, if a module had sub-modules, all declarations,
	including those in the interface, had import_status
	`exported_to_submodules'. Now, the declarations in the
	interface have status `exported' or `abstract_exported'.
	This is needed to check that the visibility of all the
	definitions of a type is the same.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add a predicate status_is_exported_to_non_submodules, which
	fails if an item is local to the module and its sub-modules.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
compiler/*.m:
	Record whether a du type has foreign definitions as well.

	Also record whether uses of the type or its constructors
	need to be qualified (this is needed now that adding
	the constructors to the HLDS is a separate pass).

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Check that a predicate or function has foreign clauses before
	allowing the use of a constructor of a type which also has
	foreign definitions.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Simplify the code to work out the goal_type for a predicate.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Don't abort on foreign types.

	Print the goal type for each predicate.

compiler/error_util.m:
	Handle the case where the message being written is a
	continuation of an existing message, so the first line
	should be indented.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	Remove unnecessary processing of foreign types.

doc/reference_manual.tex:
	Document the change.

	Update the documentation for mixing Mercury and foreign clauses.
	The Mercury clauses no longer need to be mode-specific.

da2ed598e0 Extend constrained polymorphic modes to allow inst parameters to be
Estimated hours taken: 80
Branches: main

Extend constrained polymorphic modes to allow inst parameters to be
constrained to insts other than `ground'.  The main motivation for this
is that for HAL we want inst parameters constrained to `any', however
this change is more general and allows inst parameters to be constrained
to any valid inst.

Introduce the syntax `InstParam =< Inst' to constrain an inst parameter
`InstParam' to an inst `Inst' in a predicate or function mode
declaration.

	Add a new alternative `constrained_inst_var(inst_var, inst)' to

Implement `:- pragma foreign_import_module(Lang, Module)', which tells
the compiler that the foreign code in the module containing the
declaration uses `:- pragma export'ed procedures from module `Module'.
This information is needed for mmake to build things in the right order.
Currently programmers can hand code the required mmake rules, but
`mmc --make' will have no mechanism for doing this.

`:- pragma c_import_module(Module)' is a synonym for

77a1261d3b Merge the foreign_type pragma changes from the dotnet branch to the main
Estimated hours taken: 10
Branches: main

Merge the foreign_type pragma changes from the dotnet branch to the main
branch, plus do some more development work to generalise the change.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Add a type to hold the data from parsing a pragma foreign_type decl.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
    Parse the pragma foreign_type.  This code is currently commented
    out, while we decide on the syntax.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
    Add a new alternative to hlds_type_body where the body of the type
    is a foreign type.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
    Place the foreign_type pragmas into the HLDS.

compiler/foreign.m:
    Implement to_type_string which replaces export__type_to_type_string,
    unlike export__type_to_type_string foreign__to_type_string takes an
    argument specifying which language the representation is meant to be
    in.  to_type_string also needs to take a module_info to handle
    foreign_types correctly.  To avoid the need for the module_info to
    be passed around the MLDS backend we provide a new type
    exported_type which provides enough information for an alternate
    version of to_type_string to be called.

compiler/export.m:
    Delete export__type_to_type_string.

compiler/llds.m:
    Since foreign__to_type_string needs a module_info, we add a new
    field to pragma_c_arg_decl which is the result of calling
    foreign__to_type_string.  This avoids threading the module_info
    around various llds passes.

compiler/mlds.m:
    Record with in the mercury_type the exported_type, this avoids
    passing the module_info around the MLDS backend.
    Also add the foreign_type alternative to mlds__type.
    Update mercury_type_to_mlds_type so that it handles types which are
    foreign types.

compiler/mlds_to_il.m:
    Convert a mlds__foreign_type into an ilds__type.

compiler/ilds.m:
    The CLR spec requires that System.Object and System.String be
    treated specially in the IL assembly so add them as simple types.

compiler/ilasm.m:
    Before outputting a class name into the IL assembly check whether it
    it can be simplified to a builtin type, and if so output that name
    instead as required by the ECMA spec.
    Changes for the addition of string and object as simple types.

9dd11b2fc6 Smart recompilation. Record version numbers for each item
Estimated hours taken: 400

Smart recompilation. Record version numbers for each item
in interface files. Record which items are used in each compilation.
Only recompile a module if the output file does not exist or
nothing has changed.

There is still some work to do on this:
- it doesn't work with inter-module optimization.
- it doesn't work when the module name doesn't match the file name.
  (this problem will go away when mmake functionality is moved into
  the compiler.

I'll hold off documenting this change in the NEWS file and
on the web page for a month or so, until I've had a bit more
experience using it.

compiler/options.m:
compiler/handle_options.m:
doc/user_guide.texi:
	Add an option `--smart-recompilation', currently off by default.

	Add an internal option `--generate-version-numbers' to control
	whether version numbers are written to the interface files. If
	`--smart-recompilation' is disabled because the module
	is being compiled with `--intermodule-optimization' (e.g. in the
	standard library), we still want to write the version numbers
	to the interface files.

	Add an option `--verbose-recompilation' (default off)
	to write messages describing why recompilation is needed.

	Add an option `--warn-smart-recompilation' (default on)
	to control warnings relating to the smart recompilation
	system. Warn if smart recompilation will not work with
	the output and inter-module optimization options given.

compiler/recompilation.m:
	Type declarations for smart recompilation.
	Predicates to record program items used by compilation.

compiler/recompilation_version.m:
	Compute version numbers for program items in interface files.

compiler/recompilation_usage.m:
	Find all items used by a compilation.

compiler/recompilation_check.m:
	Check whether recompilation is necessary.

compiler/timestamp.m:
	Timestamp ADT for smart recompilation.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Invoke the smart recompilation passes.

compiler/modules.m:
compiler/prog_io.m:
	Return timestamps for modules read.

	When reading a module make sure the current input stream
	is reset to its old value, not stdin.

	Handle version number items in interface files.

compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/unify_proc.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Record all items used by local items.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Process `:- pragma type_spec' declarations in
	add_item_list_clauses. The qual_info is needed
	when processing `:- pragma type_spec' declarations
	so that any equivalence types used by the declaration
	can be recorded as used by the predicate or function to
	which the `:- pragma type_spec' applies.

compiler/equiv_type.m:
	For each imported item, record which equivalence types
	are used by that item.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add a field to the module_info to store information about
	items used during compilation of a module.

compiler/check_typeclass.m:
	Make sure any items used in clauses for typeclass method
	implementations are recorded in the `.used' file.

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/*.m:
	Factor out some duplicated code by combining the
	pred and func, and pred_mode and func_mode items.

	Make it easier to extract the name of a type, inst or mode
	from its declaration.

	Add an item type to hold the version numbers for an interface file.

	Allow warnings to be reported for `nothing' items (used for
	reporting when version numbers are written using an
	obsolete format).

compiler/prog_io.m:
compiler/prog_io_util.m:
compiler/typecheck.m:
compiler/type_util.m:
compiler/*.m:
	Strip contexts from all types, not just those in class constraints.
	This makes it possible to use ordinary unification to check
	whether items have changed (with the exception of clauses).

	Remove code to create types with contexts in typechecking.

	Remove code scattered through the compiler to remove contexts
	from types in class constraints.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/prog_util.m:
	Move hlds_pred__adjust_func_arity to prog_util, so that it
	can be used by the pre-hlds passes.

compiler/typecheck.m:
compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Move typecheck__visible_modules to hlds_module.m, so it can
	be used by recompilation_usage.m.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Add a comment telling where updates may be required if the
	code to typecheck a var-functor unification changes.

compiler/error_util.m:
	Allow writing messages without contexts (used for the verbose
	recompilation messages).

	Add functions to format sym_name and sym_name_and_arity,
	and to add punctuation to the end of an error message
	without unwanted line breaks before the punctuation.

scripts/Mmake.rules:
compiler/modules.m:
	Don't remove the output file before running the compiler. We need
	to leave the old output file intact if smart recompilation detects
	that recompilation is not needed.

	Document the new modules.

library/io.m:

  	`std_util__map_maybe/2' to apply a predicate or a function to
    	a value stored in a term of type `std_util__maybe'.

configure.in:

Estimated hours taken: 8

Fix a bug in the module import mechanism -- use_module should

711da78188 Rename foreign_code as foreign_proc where appropriate in the compiler.
Estimated hours taken: 4.0
Branches: main

Rename foreign_code as foreign_proc where appropriate in the compiler.
The rationale for this change is that it makes maintaining the code much
simpler because it is clear whether `foreign' refers to a slab of code
(foreign_code) or a procedure (foreign_proc).

:- type pragma_foreign_code_attributes
:- type pragma_foreign_proc_attributes

The functors for pragma_type
	foreign(Lang, BodyCode)
	foreign(Attributes, Name, PredOrFunc, Vars, Varset, Impl)
become
	foreign_code(Lang, BodyCode)
	foreign_proc(Attributes, Name, PredOrFunc, Vars, Varset, Impl)

And the HLDS goal `pragma_foreign_code' becomes `foreign_proc'.

477ecb18f6 Implement pragma foreign_code for Managed C++.
Estimated hours taken: 60

Implement pragma foreign_code for Managed C++.

Currently you can only write MC++ code if your backend is capable of
generating use MC++ as its "native" foreign language.  The IL backend is
the only backend that does this at the moment (the other backends have C
as their "native" foreign language).

Most of the machinery is in place to call from C to (normal) C++
but there is little work done on actually spitting out the C++ code into
a separate file.  The IL backend does this step already with managed C++.
The intention is to turn foreign_code for C++ into a pragma import
(which imports the C++ function from a separate file) and
foreign_code for C (which calls the imported function).  The C++ code
will be inserted into a separate file that is compiled using C linkage.

The important improvement this change gives is that you can write a
module with a C and a MC++ implementations side-by-side.  The target
backend will select the most appropriate foreign language to use.
You can override its choice using --use-foreign-language.  Later on
we will probably want more flexibility than just a single language
selection option).

This change also implements :- pragma foreign_decl, which allows header
file style declarations to be written in languages other than C.

	Start renaming C as foreign.

	This code has been moved closer to the similar conversion we do
	for target language names.
	Add globals__io_lookup_foreign_language_option to make it easier
	to deterministically lookup the options relating to foreign
	languages.


compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Move module_add_foreign_decl and module_add_foreign_body_code
	from make_hlds.m (where they were called module_add_c_header and

	Update error messages to refer to foreign code instead of C
	code.
	Use foreign.m to generate interfaces from the backend language

	(e.g. the natural foreign language for the backend to use).
	Set the preferred backend foreign language depending on the

Estimated hours taken: 8

Record the module that each instance declaration came from.
This is needed for the IL back-end, which includes that
module name in the symbol name that it generates for each
instance declaration.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add a module_name field to the `instance' item.

compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m:
	When parsing `instance' declarations, store the
	module name that they came from in the module_name field
	of the `instance' item.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add a module_name field to the `hlds_instance_defn' structure.

	Copy the module_name field from the `instance' item to the
	`hlds_instance_defn' structure.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Fix an old XXX: when constructing `base_typeclass_info_const's,
	use the module name from the `hlds_instance_defn', rather than

	and rtti_name.

compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
	When constructing mlds `data_addr's, use the module_name from
	the `base_typeclass_info' rtti_name, rather than assuming that
	such references always refer to instance declarations in the
	current module.  (That assumption would be a safe one currently,
	but doing it this way is probably a bit more robust against

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.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/mode_info.m:
compiler/simplify.m:
compiler/det_util.m:
	Include the inst_varset in the proc_info, mode_info and simplify_info.
	Add a vartypes field to the det_info.
	Remove the vartypes field from the simplify_info since it is
	now in the det_info.
	Use record syntax for these data structures and their access predicates
	to make future changes easier.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	When processing pred and func mode declarations, convert all inst_var(V)
	insts to ground(shared, constrained_inst_var(V)).

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_data.m:

	Use inst_vars instead of inst_params.

compiler/modes.m:
compiler/modecheck_call.m:
compiler/unique_modes.m:
compiler/mode_util.m:
	When checking or recomputing initial insts of a call, build up
	an inst_var substitution (using the modified
	inst_matches_initial) and apply this to the final insts of the
	called procedure before checking/recomputing them.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Make sure that recompute_instmap_delta recomputes the
	instmap_deltas for lambda_goals even when RecomputeAtomic = no.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Add a new predicate, type_util__cons_id_arg_types which
	nondeterministically returns the cons_ids and argument types for a
	given type.
	Add a new predicate type_util__get_consid_non_existential_arg_types

Estimated hours taken: 4

(a) Move the tabling builtins, which are currently in private_builtin.m,
into a different module which is only imported if the source contains
a tabling pragma.

(b) Improve the infrastructure for automatically importing modules to
make it easy to automatically import a module only if a certain option
is set.  The idea is to eventually use this to put the simplified HLDS
representation used for declarative debugging in a module which is
only imported if the appropriate declarative debugging option is
enabled.

compiler/modules.m:
	Change add_implicit_imports so that it takes the list of
	items, for (a) above, and an io__state pair, for (b) above.
	Change its callers to pass the new parameters.

	Add a new predicate get_implicit_dependencies
	(implemented using add_implicit_imports).

compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
	Call get_implicit_dependencies rather than duplicating the code.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Pass the item_list to module_info_init, since it's needed by

compiler/prog_out.m:
	Add new predicates mercury_table_builtin_module/1 (which
	returns the name of the "table_builtin" module) and
	any_mercury_builtin_module (which checks whether any of
	mercury_{table,public,private}_builtin_module hold).

compiler/termination.m:
	Call any_mercury_builtin_module rather than checking
	for mercury_{public,private}_builtin_module.

compiler/table_gen.m:
	Change the module for tabling builtins from private_builtin to

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add table_builtin to the builtin_mod enumeration,
	and change the module for tabling builtins from
	private_builtin to table_builtin.

compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:

	(Likewise for builtin.m and private_builtin.m; it's not
	strictly necessary for those, since they're implicitly

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.

	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.

	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:

c192d50143 Add preliminary support for a new pragma:
Estimated hours taken: 15

Add preliminary support for a new pragma:

:- pragma foreign_code(LanguageString, .... <same args as c_code>).

This is intended to be the eventual replacement of pragma c_code.
Presently the only valid language is "C".
The existing pragma c_code is simply turned into pragma foreign_code.

pragma foreign_code is not a supported pragma at the moment.  There are
several other changes that are intended (for example, foreign_code will
be impure by default).

This change also changes the HLDS goal pragma_c_code/7 to
pragma_foreign_code/8 where the extra argument is the foreign language.

Any code currently generating output for pragma C code simply checks
that the foreign language is set to "c".  Since this is the only
alternative of the type foreign_language, it will always succeed.
However when new alternatives are added it should be fairly easy to find
where the changes need to be made.

Some type names and predicate names have also been updated, however
there are many more that haven't yet been touched.

79d75acdb0 Add impure functions to Mercury, clean up the purity module somewhat,
Estimated hours taken: 30

Add impure functions to Mercury, clean up the purity module somewhat,
fix some bugs in purity, update and expand the purity documentation,
and re-organize the purity checks.

Impure functions can be declared just like impure preds.
However, they can only be called in an explicit unification preceeded
by a purity level:

	impure X = some_impure_func(Y, Z)

The bug fixed was the fact that closures of impure predicates
were only being detected when using lambda syntax.  Purity information
was discarded and impure closures could be created like this:

	Pred = some_impure_pred

You could then use this predicate anywhere you like without any purity
declarations.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add get_pred_id pred which will return the pred_id of a
	predicate matching a given type.  This is like
	get_pred_and_proc_id, but only gets the information we are
	interested in, and is semidet.
	We need a semidet version to handle cases where type inference
	cannot infer a type before the limit is reached, but we try to
	purity check this code.  (The bug mentioned above was stopping
	us from purity checking the test case for this before).

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Check for "impure" unifications with expressions that are not
	function calls and issue appropriate error messages.
	When unravelling impure function call unifications, put the input
	parameter unifications (if any) before the actual call.
	Only mark the goal_info for the function call as impure.

	Check unifications that are transformed into calls to make sure
	the call is purity correct.
	Put purity checking logic into separate predicates.
	Use an enum to return different errors and warnings.
	(The last two changes make it much easier to see the
	similarities between checking goals and checking predicates for
	purity correctness).
	Give different error messages for impure functions (highlight
	that you need to use them in an explicit unification).
	Handle unknown predicate lookups (can occur when unifying with
	a higher order term whose type could not be inferred).
	Add a few comments delineating where changes might need to be
	made to make foreign code impure by default in future.

Estimated hours taken: 6

Allow class methods to be impure or semipure. Previously any purity annotation
on a class method was ignored, and the method assumed to be pure. (We have
for some time caught the case of providing an impure implementation for
a (pure) class method, though).

        Add the appropriate impurity marker to the predicate we generate for
        each instance method.
compiler/purity.m:

                - Never warn about excessive impurity for a class methods.
                  (The body of the method is just class_method_call, which
                  never looks impure as far as it is concerned).
                - Never warn about excessive impurity for class instance
                  method. The fact that a method is impure doesn't mean that
                  its instances need to be impure, and it would be excessive
                  to warn about it, seeing that there is no way for the user
                  to avoid it (other than actually making their implementation
                  impure...).

Estimated hours taken: 26

Assertion declarations in the interface must not contain any symbols from
modules imported only in the implementation.  This constraint requires
that each imported symbol be annotated with whether it is imported from
the interface or implementation.

compiler/prog_data.m:
    Update the pseudo declaration `:- imported' to include which section
    (either implementation or interface) the items following it were
    imported from.

compiler/modules.m:
    Add a new version of get_dependencies, which divides the modules up
    into those imported in the interface and implementation.
    Use the new version of get_dependencies to place the new form of
    `:- imported' declarations at the start of items from different
    sections.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
    Add a new field to the imported data constructor in the type
    import_status, which records in which section the symbol was
    imported in.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
    Modify module_defn_update_import_status so that it now records from
    which section a symbol is imported.

compiler/module_qual.m:
    Any unqualified symbol in an assertion might come from *any*
    of the imported modules, so turn off the warning about modules which
    are imported in the interface but not used, if an unqualified symbol
    appears in the assertion.

compiler/assertion.m:
    Use where a symbol is imported from when deciding whether an
    assertion in the interface is valid.
    Call module_info_incr_errors whenever an error message is written.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
    Add the extra module_info arg to assertion__in_interface_check, so

Estimated hours taken: 10

Fix the remaining bugs with the handling of partial qualifiers
for nested modules.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	Define a new abstract type partial_qualifier_info, and a predicate
	mq_info_get_partial_qualifier_info to get this type from the mq_info.
	Define a new predicate get_partial_qualifiers/3 in module_qual.m
	which is like the old get_partial_qualifiers/2 predicate from
	modules.m except that it takes a partial_qualifier_info and
	uses the information in this to return only the partial qualifiers
	for modules which are visible, rather than returning all partial
	qualifier regardless of whether the modules that they refer to
	are in scope or not.

compiler/prog_util.m:
	Export the `insert_module_qualifier' predicate, for use in the
	definition of get_partial_qualifiers/3.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Change the code for make_hlds__ctors_add and
	hlds_module__pred_table_insert/5 so that they handles partial
	qualifiers properly, computing the partial qualifiers by
	calling get_partial_qualifiers/3 rather than by checking the
	NeedQual variable and calling get_partial_qualifiers/2.

compiler/modules.m:
	Delete the old get_partial_qualifiers/2 predicate.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add a new field to the HLDS containing the partial_qualifier_info.
	Add a partial_qualifier_info parameter to pred_table_insert/5.

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.

	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

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.

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

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.

		to `<module>.rla'
	--aditi-only: don't produce a `.c' file.

	--optimize-rl, --optimize-rl-cse, --optimize-rl-invariants,
	--optimize-rl-index, --detect-rl-streams:
		Options to control RL optimization passes.
	--aditi-user:
		Default owner of any Aditi procedures,
		defaults to $USER or "guest".
	--generate-schemas:
		write schemas for base relations to `<module>'.base_schema
		and schemas for derived relations to `<module>'.derived_schema.
		This is used by the query shell.

	`naive', `psn' (predicate semi-naive), `aditi_memo', `aditi_no_memo',
	`base_relation', `owner' and `index'.
	Separate out code to parse a predicate name and arity.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add predicates to identify Aditi procedures.
	Added markers `generate_inline' and `aditi_interface', which
	are used internally for Aditi code generation.
	Add an `owner' field to pred_infos, which is used for database
	security checks.
	Add a field to pred_infos to hold the list of indexes for a base
	relation.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Some pragmas must be exported if the corresponding predicates
	are exported, check this.
	Make sure stratification of Aditi procedures is checked.
	Predicates with a mode declaration but no type declaration
	are no longer assumed to be local.
	Set the `do_aditi_compilation' field of the module_info if there
	are any local Aditi procedures or base relations.
	Check that `--aditi' is set if Aditi compilation is required.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:

	which is used to ensure sequencing of updates and that Aditi
	procedures are only called within transactions.

compiler/dnf.m:
	Changed the definition of disjunctive normal form slightly
	so that a call followed by some atomic goals not including
	any database calls is considered atomic. magic.m can handle
	this kind of goal, and it results in more efficient RL code.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
compiler/dependency_graph.m:
	Added dependency_graph__get_scc_entry_points which finds
	the procedures in an SCC which could be called from outside.
	Added a new field to the dependency_info, the
	aditi_dependency_ordering. This contains all Aditi SCCs of
	the original program, with multiple SCCs merged where
	possible to improve the effectiveness of differential evaluation
	and the low level RL optimizations.

compiler/hlds_module.m:
	Add a field to record whether there are any local Aditi procedures
	in the current module.
	Added versions of module_info_pred_proc_info and
	module_info_set_pred_proc_info which take a pred_proc_id,
	not a separate pred_id and proc_id.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
	Make sure that predicates created for closures in Aditi procedures
	have the correct markers.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Added goal_util__switch_to_disjunction,
	goal_util__case_to_disjunct (factored out from simplify.m)
	and goal_util__if_then_else_to_disjunction. These are
	require because supplementary magic sets can't handle
	if-then-elses or switches.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Added type_is_aditi_state/1.

compiler/mode_util.m:
	Added partition_args/5 which partitions a list of arguments
	into inputs and others.

compiler/inlining.m:
	Don't inline memoed procedures.
	Don't inline Aditi procedures into non-Aditi procedures.

compiler/intermod.m:
	Handle Aditi markers.
	Clean up handling of markers which should not appear in `.opt' files.

compiler/simplify.m:
	Export a slightly different interface for use by magic.m.
	Remove explicit quantifications where possible.
	Merge multiple nested quantifications.
	Don't report infinite recursion warnings for Aditi procedures.

compiler/prog_out.m:
	Generalised the code to output a module list to write any list.

compiler/code_gen.m:
compiler/arg_info.m:
	Don't process Aditi procedures.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Call magic.m and rl_gen.m.
	Don't perform the low-level annotation passes on Aditi procedures.
	Remove calls to constraint.m - sometime soon a rewritten version
	will be called directly from deforestation.

compiler/passes_aux.m:
	Add predicates to process only non-Aditi procedures.

compiler/llds.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
	Added new `code_addr' enum members, do_{det,semidet,nondet}_aditi_call,
	which are defined in extras/aditi/aditi.m.

compiler/call_gen.m:
	Handle generation of do_*_aditi_call.

compiler/llds_out.m:
	Write the RL code for the module as a constant char array
	in the `.c' file.

compiler/term_errors.m:
compiler/error_util.m:
	Move code to describe predicates into error_util.m
	Allow the caller to explicitly add line breaks.
	Added error_util:list_to_pieces to format a list of
	strings.
	Reordered some arguments for currying.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Don't try to print clauses if there are none.

runtime/mercury_init.h:
util/mkinit.c:
scripts/c2init.in:
	Added a function `mercury__load_aditi_rl_code()' to the generated
	`<module>_init.c' file which throws all the RL code for the program
	at the database. This should be called at connection time by
	`aditi__connect'.
	Added an option `--aditi' which controls the output
	`mercury__load_aditi_rl_code()'.

compiler/notes/compiler_design.html:

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.

ecb6edb717 Fix a bug with intermodule optimization of nested modules.
Estimated hours taken: 20

Fix a bug with intermodule optimization of nested modules.

Previously, the compiler used to just label any
predicates defined in a module containing sub-modules
as `exported', since they may be needed by the separately-compiled
sub-modules.  However, this is a little bit of a lie,
and it turns out that it doesn't work.  The fix is
to use a new status `exported_to_submodules' for this case.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add a new pseudo-declaration ":- private_interface",
	used to mark items in an ":- implementation" section
	that will be exported to submodules.

compiler/modules.m:
	Put declarations from modules containing sub-modules into
	`private_interface' sections rather than into `interface' sections.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add a new alternative `exported_to_submodules' to the
	`import_status' data type.  Add several new procedures
	for testing particular aspects of this type.

compiler/module_qual.m:
	Set the import_status of items in a `private_interface'
	section to `exported_to_submodules'.

compiler/intermod.m:
	Handle procedures with status `exported_to_submodules'
	specially.  Also reorganize the code here a bit to make
	it more maintainable.

7d0e4822d1 Fix several bugs in the runtime engine to do with thread-safe execution.
Estimated hours taken: 15

Fix several bugs in the runtime engine to do with thread-safe execution.

Add a new flag to pragma c_code/import to allow programmers to specify
whether or not the C code is thread-safe or not, and modify code generation
to put a lock around C code that isn't thread_safe.

runtime/mercury_thread.{c,h}:
	Add a global lock.
	Change the handling of thread creation. create_thread now takes
	a "closure" (a C struct with a fn pointer and an argument to pass
	the function) which it calls in the new thread. (The same mechanism
	is used in the Boehm collector), or NULL which causes the thread
	to wait for work to appear in the Mercury runqueue.

runtime/mercury_context.c:
	initialize the global lock.

runtime/mercury_engine.{c,h}:
	Add a new field to the MercuryEngine structre which is used to
	store a list of saved thread ids. These were being saved in a
	local variable in call_engine_inner which was a bug because
	call_engine_inner's (C) stack frame gets scribbled on by Mercury
	execution. For more detail see the comments in mercury_engine.h

runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
	Use the new interface to create_thread.

compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
	Parse either a single attribute or a list of attributes instead
	of just 'may_call_mercury' in pragma c code and pragma import.
	These are stored in an abstract type 'pragma_c_code_attributes'
	that uses a bit array (aka int) to store the attributes.

compiler/pragma_c_gen.m:
	Get the code generator to emit c code to obtain and release the
	global lock for pragma c code that isn't thread_safe.

compiler/<various>.m:
	Change may_call_mercury to pragma_c_code_attributes.

doc/reference_manual.m:
	Document the change to pragma c code.

6455e041cb Merge in the changes from the existential types branch,
Estimated hours taken: 6
	(plus another 80 or so already recorded for
	my commits on the existential_types branch)

Merge in the changes from the existential types branch,
and make some modifications to address dgj's code review comments.

These changes add support for existentially quantified type variables
and type class constraints on functions and predicates.
(Existential data types, however, are not supported -- see below.)

Existentially quantified type variables are introduced with
an explicit `some [T]', e.g. `:- some [T] pred foo(T)'.
Existentially quantified type class constraints are introduced
with `&' instead of `<=', e.g. `:- some [T] (pred foo(T) & ord(T))'.

There's still several limitations:

0.  XXX It's not yet documented in the language reference manual.

1.  XXX It doesn't do any mode checking or mode reordering.
    If you write code that uses existentially typed procedures in the
    wrong order, then you'll get an internal error in polymorphism.m
    or in the code generator.  (Cases where a type_info has no
    producer at all are caught by the check for unbound type
    variables in post_typecheck.m.)

    To support this, we need to change things so that polymorphism.m
    gets invoked before mode checking.

2.  Using `in' modes on arguments of existential type won't work.
    If you try, you will get a compile error.

    It would be nice to extend things to allow this kind of
    "implied mode" for type_infos, where an existential type
    becomes a universal type if some value of that type is
    input.  Supporting this would require first fixing
    limitation 1 (described above) and then

3.  There's no support for `pragma c_code' for procedures
    with existential type class constraints.
    (In fact, there's not really any support for `pragma c_code'
    for procedures with universal type class constraints either --
    the C code has no way of getting access to the type class info.)

4.  XXX Taking the address of something which is existentially typed
    should be illegal, but we don't check this.

In addition, these changes in this batch make a start towards allowing
existentially typed data types.  The compiler now accepts existential
quantifiers and type class constraints on type definitions, and type
checks them accordingly (assuming all functor occurrences are
deconstructors, not constructors -- see limitation 2 above).  But
there's no special handling for them in polymorphism.m, so if you try
to use them, it will abort with an internal error.

The changes also includes fixes for a couple of bugs in typechecking
and polymorphism that I discovered while making the above changes,
and an improvement to the error reporting from typecheck.m in one case.
Those changes are listed separately below.

compiler/prog_data.m:
	Add a new type `class_constraints', which holds two different
	lists of constraints, namely the existentially quantified constraints
	and the universally quantified ones.
	Add a new field to the parse tree representation of pred and
	func declarations to hold a list of the existentially quantified
	type variables, and change the `list(class_constraint)' into
	`class_constraints' so that we can store existential constraints too.
	Add new fields to the `constructor' data type (formerly just a pair)
	to hold the existentially quantified type variables and
	type class constraints.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add several new fields to the pred_info:
	  - a list of the existentially quantified type variables;
	  - a list of the "HeadTypeParams": type variables which
	    cannot be bound by this predicate (i.e. those whose type_infos
	    come from this pred's caller or are returned from
	    other preds called by this one);
	  - and a list of unsatisfied type class constraints.
	Add a predicate pred_info_get_univ_quant_tvars to compute the
	universally quantified type variables.
	Change the pred constraints field from `list(class_constraint)'
	to `class_constraints' so that it can hold existential constraints too.

compiler/hlds_data.m:
	Add new fields to hlds_cons_defn to hold the existentially
	quantified type variables and type class constraints.

compiler/*.m:
	Minor changes to reflect the above-mentioned data structure
	changes in prog_data.m, hlds_pred.m, and hlds_data.m.

compiler/prog_io.m:
	Add code to parse the new constructs.

	Also rewrite the code for parsing purity specifiers,
	type quantifiers and type class constraints, using basically
	the method suggested by Peter Schachte: treat these as
	"declaration attributes", and have parse_decl strip off
	all the declaration attributes into a seperate list and
	then pass that list to process_decl, which for each different
	kind of declaration processes the attributes which are
	appropriate for that declaration and then calls check_no_attributes
	to ensure that there were no inappropriate attributes.

	The purpose of this rewrite was to allow it to handle the new
	constructs properly, and to avoid unnecessary code duplication.

compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Add code to pretty-print the new constructs.

compiler/make_hlds.m:
	Copy the new fields in the parse tree into the
	corresponding new fields in the pred_info.
	Add code to check for various misuses of quantifiers.

compiler/hlds_out.m:
	Print out the new fields in the pred_info (except the
	unsatisfied type class constraints -- if these are non-empty,
	post_typecheck.m will print them out in the error message).
	When printing out types, pass the AppendVarNums parameter down,
	so that HLDS dumps will distinguish between different type
	variables that have the same name.
	Delete hlds_out__write_constructor, since it was doing exactly
	the same thing as mercury__output_ctor.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Lots of changes to handle existential types and existential
	type class constraints.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	When checking for unbound type variables,
	use the value of HeadTypeParams from the pred_info.

compiler/type_util.m:
	Delete `type_and_constraint_list_matches_exactly', since it was not
	used.  Add various `apply_variable_renaming_to_*' predicates for
	renaming constraints.

compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Lots of changes to handle existential types and existential
	type class constraints.
	Also some changes to make the code more maintainable:

compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
	Put curly braces around the definitions of 'some'/2 and '&'/2 functors
	in `:- type' definitions, to avoid them being misinterpreted as
	existential type constraints.

compiler/goal_util.m:
compiler/polymorphism.m:
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
	Include type_infos for existentially quantified type variables
	and type_class_infos for existential constraints
	in the set of extra variables computed by
	goal_util__extra_type_info_vars.

compiler/inlining.m:
	Change inlining__do_goal to handle inlining of calls to
	existentially typed predicates -- for them, instead of not
	binding any type variables at all in the caller, it allows the
	call to bind any type variables in the caller except for those
	that are universally quantified.

compiler/inlining.m:
compiler/deforest.m:
	Call pred_info_get_univ_quant_tvars and pass the
	result to inlining__do_inline_goal.

----------

Improve an error message.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	Improve error reporting by checking type class constraints for
	satisfiability as we go and thus reporting unsatisfiable constraints
	as soon as possible, rather than only at the end of the clause.
	Previously we already did that for the case of ground constraints,
	but they are not the only unsatsfiable constraints: constraints
	on head type params (type variables which cannot be bound) are
	also unsatisfiable if they can't be eliminated straight away
	by context reduction.

tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/typeclass_test_7.{m,err_exp}:
	Regression test for the above change.

----------

Avoid problems where type inference was reporting some
spurious errors for predicates using type classes,
because the check for unsatisfied type class constraints
was being done before the final pass of type inference
had finished.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
	Add new field to the pred_info containing the unproven
	type class constraints.

compiler/typecheck.m:
	When inferring type class constraints, make sure that before
	we save the results back in the pred_info, we restrict the
	constraints to the head type variables.  Constraints
	on other type variables should be treated as
	unsatisfied constraints.

	Don't check for unsatisfied type class constraints at the
	end of each pass; instead, just save the unproven type class
	constraints in the pred_info.

compiler/post_typecheck.m:
	Check for unsatisfied type class constraints, using
	the new field in the pred_info.

tests/hard_coded/typeclasses/inference_test_2.{m,exp}:
tests/invalid/Mmakefile:
tests/invalid/typeclass_test_8.{m,err_exp}:

----------

Fix a bug with the computation of the non-locals for
predicates with more than one constraint on the same type variable --
it was only including one of the type-class-infos, rather than all of them.

compiler/goal_util.m:
	Change `goal_util__extra_nonlocal_typeinfos' so that it gets
	passed the TypeClassInfoVarMap and uses this to include all
	the appropriate typeclass infos in the extra nonlocals.

compiler/hlds_pred.m:
compiler/lambda.m:
compiler/polymorphism.m:
	Pass the TypeClassInfoVarMap to `goal_util__extra_nonlocal_typeinfos'.

	`--use-subdirs' to MCFLAGS, and most of the pattern rules
	are changed to use subdirectories.

	Note that getting this to work required a bit of a hack:
	due to what seem to be bugs in GNU Make, `mmake depend'
	needs to do `mmc --make-short-interface *.m' to get things
	started.  But once the int3s are there, the dependencies
	seem to work OK.

compiler/options.m:
	Add a new boolean option `--use-subdirs'.

compiler/modules.m:
	Add new predicate `fact_table_file_name'.
	Add an extra argument to `module_name_to_file_name',
	specifying whether or not to create any directories
	needed for the file name.
	Change all the file-name-creating predicates here
	to go through a single new predicate `choose_file_name',
	and add code in that predicate to handle the `--use-subdirs'
	option.
	Also if the `--use-subdirs' option is set, don't use the
	compact dependencies format, since it can't work in that case.

compiler/fact_table.m:
	Call `fact_table_file_name' rather than using `string__append'.

compiler/mercury_compile.m:
	Change `link_module_list' and `join_module_list'
	so that they create file names by calling `module_name_to_file_name'.

compiler/export.m:
compiler/intermod.m:
compiler/llds_out.m:
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/modules.m:
compiler/termination.m:
compiler/trans_opt.m:
compiler/unused_args.m:
	Change all calls to `module_name_to_file_name' to pass
	the extra argument specifying whether or not to make
	any directories needed for the file name.

library/Mmakefile:
	Change the rule for `mmake install_ints' so that it
	creates a `Mercury' subdirectory with symbolic links
	`ints', `int2s', `int3s', `opts', and `trans_opts'
	which just point to `..'.  This is needed for the
	`--use-subdirs' option to work, because Mmake currently
	does not support mixing libraries compiled with and
	without `--use-subdirs'.

doc/user_guide.texi:
	Document the above changes.
