It was not possible to make `ScalaCompilerForUnitTesting` compile several
files in different runs, which means that it was not possible to compile
and use a macro in a test case, since macros cannot be used in the same
compilation run that defines them.
This commit allows a test case to provide multiple grouped snippets of
code that will be compiled in separate runs.
For instance :
List(Map(<snippet A>, <snippet B>), Map(<snippet C>))
Here, <snippet A> and <snippet B> will be compiled together, and then
<snippet C> will be compiled, and will be able to use symbols defined
in <snippet A> or <snippet B>.
Tracking of used names is a component needed by the name hashing
algorithm. The extraction and storage of used names is active only when
`AnalysisCallback.nameHashing` flag is enabled and it's disabled by
default.
This change constists of two parts:
1. Modification of Relations to include a new `names` relation
that allows us to track used names in Scala source files
2. Implementation of logic that extracts used names from Scala
compilation units (that correspond to Scala source files)
The first part is straightforward: add standard set of methods in
Relations (along with their implementation) and update the logic which
serializes and deserializes Relations.
The second part is implemented as tree walk that collects all symbols
associated with trees. For each symbol we extract a simple, decoded name
and add it to a set of extracted names. Check documentation of
`ExtractUsedNames` for discussion of implementation details.
The `ExtractUsedNames` comes with unit tests grouped in
`ExtractUsedNamesSpecification`. Check that class for details.
Given the fact that we fork while running tests in `compiler-interface`
subproject and tests are ran in parallel which involves allocating
multiple Scala compiler instances we had to bump the default memory limit.
This commit contains fixes for gkossakowski/sbt#3, gkossakowski/sbt#5 and
gkossakowski/sbt#6 issues.
The previous name of the flag was rather specific: it indicated
whether the new source dependency tracking is supported by given Relations
object. However, there will be more functionality added to Relations that
is specific to name hashing algorithm. Therefore it makes sense to name
the flag as just `nameHashing`.
I decided to rename Relations implementation classes to be more
consistent with the name of the flag and with the purpose they serve.
The flag in AnalysisCallback (and classes implementing it) has been
renamed as well.
Add `extractDependenciesFromSrcs` method to ScalaCompilerForUnitTest
class which allows us to unit test dependency extraction logic.
See the comment attached to the method that explain the details of
how it should be used.
Refactor ScalaCompilerForUnitTesting by introducing a new method
`extractApiFromSrc` which better describes the intent than
`compileSrc`. The `compileSrc` becomes a private, utility method.
Also, `compileSrc` method changed it's signature so it can take
multiple source code snippets as input. This functionality will
be used in future commits.
Fix the problem with unstable names synthesized for existential
types (declared with underscore syntax) by renaming type variables
to a scheme that is guaranteed to be stable no matter where given
the existential type appears.
The sheme we use are De Bruijn-like indices that capture both position
of type variable declarion within single existential type and nesting
level of nested existential type. This way we properly support nested
existential types by avoiding name clashes.
In general, we can perform renamings like that because type variables
declared in existential types are scoped to those types so the renaming
operation is local.
There's a specs2 unit test covering instability of existential types.
The test is included in compiler-interface project and the build
definition has been modified to enable building and executing tests
in compiler-interface project. Some dependencies has been modified:
* compiler-interface project depends on api project for testing
(test makes us of SameAPI)
* dependency on junit has been introduced because it's needed
for `@RunWith` annotation which declares that specs2 unit
test should be ran with JUnitRunner
SameAPI has been modified to expose a method that allows us to
compare two definitions.
This commit also adds `ScalaCompilerForUnitTesting` class that allows
to compile a piece of Scala code and inspect information recorded
callbacks defined in `AnalysisCallback` interface. That class uses
existing ConsoleLogger for logging. I considered doing the same for
ConsoleReporter. There's LoggingReporter defined which would fit our
usecase but it's defined in compile subproject that compiler-interface
doesn't depend on so we roll our own.
ScalaCompilerForUnit testing uses TestCallback from compiler-interface
subproject for recording information passed to callbacks. In order
to be able to access TestCallback from compiler-interface
subproject I had to tweak dependencies between interface and
compiler-interface so test classes from the former are visible in the
latter. I also modified the TestCallback itself to accumulate apis in
a HashMap instead of a buffer of tuples for easier lookup.
An integration test has been added which tests scenario
mentioned in #823.
This commit fixes#823.
