Add predicates for writing 16- and 32-bit integers to binary file streams in
native, little and big endian byte order to the standard library.
library/io.m:
Add the new predicates.
library/uint16.m:
library/uint32.m:
Add a functions for casting from the signed to unsigned versions
of these types.
runtime/mercury_int.h:
New header intended to hold things related to the implementation
of the integer types in C grades. Currently it contains the
macros defining the byte reverse operations for 16- and 32-bit
types. (It will eventually contain macros for (un)boxing 64-bit
integer types on 32-bit platforms as well.)
runtime/mercury_imp.h:
runtime/Mmakefile:
Add the new header.
tests/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
tests/write_binary_multibyte_int.{m,exp}:
Add a test for the new predicates.

Delete the gcc_nested_functions grade option.
Delete also the gcc_local_labels option, since it was useful
only if gcc_nested_functions was set.

be added until part 1 of the fixed size integer change had
bootstrapped.
library/table_statistics.m:

runtime/mercury_builtin_types.c:
Avoid warnings about casting from a pointer to an integer of a different
size from GCC when casting from MR_Box to one of the C99 fixed size
integer types. Cast these values to MR_Word first to avoid the warning.
Add the new builtin types: int8, uint8, int16, uint16, int32 and uint32.
Support for these new types will need to be bootstrapped over several changes.
This is the first such change and does the following:
- Extends the compiler to recognise 'int8', 'uint8', 'int16', 'uint16', 'int32'
and 'uint32' as builtin types.
- Extends the set of builtin arithmetic, bitwise and relational operators to
cover the new types.
- Extends all of the code generators to handle new types. There currently lots
of limitations and placeholders marked by 'XXX FIXED SIZE INT'. These will
be lifted in later changes.
- Extends the runtimes to support the new types.
- Adds new modules to the standard library intended to hold the basic
operations on the new types. (These are currently empty and not documented.)
This change does not introduce the two 64-bit types, 'int64' and 'uint64'.
Their implementation is more complicated and is best left to a separate change.
compiler/prog_type.m:
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/builtin_lib_types.m:
Recognise int8, uint8, int16, uint16, int32 and uint32 as builtin types.

types by the new int_type/0 type.

Add a new builtin type: uint, which is an unsigned word sized integer type.
Support for this new type will need be bootstrapped over several changes.
This is the first such change and does the following:
- Extends the compiler to recognize 'uint' as a builtin type.
- Extends the set of builtin operations to include relational and (some)
arithmetic operations on uints.
- Extends all of the code generators to handle the above. There are some
limitations currently marked by 'XXX UINT'. These will be lifted once
the compiler recognised uint and additional library support becomes
available.
- Extends the runtime to support uints.
compiler/prog_type.m:

compiler/builtin_ops.m:
Add builtin relational and arithmetic operations on uints. Note that the
existing 'unsigned_le' operation is actually intended for use with signed
values. Rather than attempt to modify its meaning, I have just added new
operations specific to the uint type.

Since the original commit 89a4d190c5, io.m
tested for the macro MR_BROKEN_STAT_ST_INO whereas mercury_conf_param.h
defined the macro MR_BROKEN_ST_INO. The effect was that file IDs were
allowed on Windows even though stat.st_ino will not distinguish files.

runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
library/thread.m:
library/thread.semaphore.m:
Conform to the above change.
The parallel version of the runtime makes use of POSIX unnamed semaphores,
which do not exist on OS X (although annoyingly most of the relevant functions
*do* exist, they just don't do anything). This was originally a problem for
the low-level C version of the parallel runtime, but now affects both C
backends (i.e. it's currently impossible to use threads or parallel
conjunctions on OS X). The fix is to replace the use of POSIX unnamed
semaphores on OS X, with the semaphore implementation for libdispatch (which is
part of Grand Central Dispatch). Note that the .par grades are (presumably)
still broken in versions of OS X prior to 10.6 -- they'll now just fail to
compile rather than fail at runtime.
configure.ac:
runtime/mercury_conf.h.in:
Check whether libdispatch is present.
runtime/mercury_conf_param.h:
Define a macro that says whether we want to use libdispatch; always
define this macro on OS X. Using libdispatch (optionally) on other systems
is future work.
runtime/mercury_thread.{c,h}
Define the MercurySem type and its associated operations appropriately
when using libdispatch.
library/Mmakefile:
Recompile the thread and thread.semaphore if any of the runtime headers
that define the macros they use change.
Isolate all dependencies on POSIX unnamed semaphores to the runtime's
mercury_thread module. This is a step towards fixing bug #357.
runtime/mercury_thread.{h,c}:
Provide wrappers for the functions sem_destroy and sem_timedwait.
The latter does not exist on OS X, so (for now) just abort if it
is called.
runtime/mercury_context.c:
library/thread.m:
Use the above wrappers instead of calling the sem_* functions
directly.

Add an extra parameter to the Mercury predicates and C procedures to say

Mercury did not properly test for I/O errors for file reading. If an I/O
error occurred it would be reported as EOF. If this happened at just the
right spot it could be silently ignored. I found the mistake when trying to
open a directory as a file. Opening the file succeeded but reading from it
incorrectly gave an EOF.
library/io.m:
read_char_code has always been documented as returning -1 for EOF
and -2 for an error. But the C code did not correctly implement
this. fgetc will return EOF in either case and the caller must use
ferror or feof to determine what has happened.
Make it clearer that valid characters and bytes from read_char_code
must be >= 0.

Move all the grade compatibility tests from mercury_conf_param.h here.
Reword their error messages to talk directly about the user-visible

For picreg, this is only the first half of the change; it deletes code
that generates references to this grade component. When this diff has been
installed on all our machines, will come the second half, which will delete

your current installed compiler is still generating such references.

Delete the autoconfigured variable EXT_FOR_LINK_WITH_PIC_OBJECTS,
which could be set to either 'lpic_o' or just 'o', because it is now
*always* the latter.
scripts/Mercury.config.bootstrap.in:
scripts/Mercury.config.in:
Remove code that transmitted the value of EXT_FOR_LINK_WITH_PIC_OBJECTS
to the compiler via the --link-with-pic-object-file-extension option.
compiler/options.m:
Keep the --link-with-pic-object-file-extension and --pic-reg options,
but mark them for deletion in the second half of this change.
compiler/compile_target_code.m:
Change the code that dealt with the value of the
--link-with-pic-object-file-extension and --pic-reg options to assume
that the former is always the same as the non-pic file extension,
and that --pic-reg is never needed. The former means that we don't need
to handle link_with_pic as a separate category of object files from
just plain non_pic.
compiler/compute_grade.m:
Keep accepting picreg grades, but mark the code that does this
for deletion.
compiler/make.program_target.m:
compiler/make.module_target.m:
compiler/make.program_target.m:
compiler/make.util.m:
Conform to the changes above.
These allow types to be defined in the following manner:
:- type job ---> job(pred(int::out, io::di, io::uo) is det).
For any construction unification using this functor the argument must
have the required higher-order inst; it is a mode error if it does not.
When terms of type job with inst ground are deconstructed, the argument
is inferred to have the given inst, allowing a higher-order call in that
mode.
The new type syntax is currently only permitted as the direct argument of
a functor in a du type definition. In future it would be meaningful to
support this syntax in other locations, but that is left for a separate
change.
In order to correctly implement the construct/3 library predicate, we
need to be able to dynamically check that arguments do not violate
any constraints on the argument insts. At the moment, we conservatively
abort if any such constraints are present irrespective of whether they
are satisfied or not. Since these constraints are a new feature, no
existing code will abort in this way.
The implementation refers to the inst information associated with types
as "subtype information". This is because, generally, we think of the
combination of a type with a fully bound inst (i.e., one that describes
terms that contain no unbound variables) describes a subtype of that type.
compiler/inst_util.m:
Ensure that arguments have the necessary insts in construction
unifications.
Where available, propagate the insts into arguments rather than
using ground(shared, none).
compiler/prog_io_type_name.m:
Parse the new form of types.
compiler/unparse.m:
Unparse the new form of types.
compiler/prog_io_type_defn.m:
Allow the new form of types in functor arguments.
compiler/prog_ctgc.m:
compiler/prog_io_item.m:
compiler/prog_io_mutable.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
compiler/prog_io_typeclass.m:
compiler/superhomogeneous.m:
Disallow the new form of types in places other than functor
arguments.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Go back to representing function types with result type appended
to the arguments. In most case this now results in simpler code.
compiler/prog_type.m:
Abstract away the representation of predicate vs function arguments
by using a predicate to construct these types.
compiler/rtti.m:
compiler/type_ctor_info.m:
Include subtype information about the arguments of a du functor
and about the argument of a notag functor. Generate this
information from the argument types.
Currently, the information is one bit which says whether or not
any subtypes exist in the arguments.
Bump the RTTI version number from the compiler side.
compiler/rtti_out.m:
Output functor subtype information for the low-level C backend.
compiler/rtti_to_mlds.m:
Include functor subtype information in the MLDS.
compiler/mlds_to_cs.m:
Add the new runtime type to the special cases.
compiler/erl_rtti.m:
compiler/erlang_rtti.m:
library/erlang_rtti_implementation.m:
Include functor subtype info in the erlang RTTI.
java/runtime/DuFunctorDesc.java:
java/runtime/FunctorSubtypeInfo.java:
Include functor subtype information in the Java runtime.
runtime/mercury_dotnet.cs.in:
Include functor subtype information in the C# runtime.
runtime/mercury_type_info.h:
Include functor subtype information in the C runtime.
Bump the RTTI version number in the runtime.
Define macros to access the new field. These macros can correctly
handle the previous RTTI version, therefore we do not need to
change the minimum version at this time.
library/private_builtin.m:
Define constants for use by the Java backend.
library/construct.m:
library/rtti_implementation.m:
Use the new RTTI to ensure we don't attempt to construct terms
that violate the new insts.
compiler/prog_rep_tables.m:
Ignore the new inst info for now.
compiler/*.m:
Changes to conform to above.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Document the new feature.

runtime/Mmakefile:
Always install the runtime header files, even in non-C grades.
Add a comment explaining why this needs to be done.
Update the comment describing where all the different versions of
the runtime live and how they are built.
Delete now-unused code for building the IL backend version of the
runtime.
compiler/Mmakefile:
Document the how we install the C# version of the compiler.
Add an XXX comment about a difference between Mono and .NET that
we don't yet handle when the compiler is built in the C# grade.
library/Mmakefile:
Delete code for cleaning up files generated by the IL backend.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.[ch]:
The function MR_make_argv was only exported from this module
for the use of the GCC backend; since that no longer exists,
we no longer need to export it.
