This commit adapts `Watched` so that it supports the new `WatchService`
infrastructure introduced in sbt/io. The goal of this infrastructure is
to provide and API for and several implementations of services that
monitor changes to the file system.
The service to use to monitor the file system can be configured with the
key `watchService`.
This undeprecates the syntax, but at the same times moves it out of
implicit scope, therefore requiring a 'import TupleSyntax._' to opt-in
to the old syntax.
Before, we were not preserving the value `insideXXX`. This commit makes
sure that we handle much more complex scenarios and we report them
successfully. Have a look at the tests.
This ports sbt-cross-building's cross (`^`) and switch (`^^`) commands.
Instead of making it a plugin, the default settings are now changed
to use `sbtVersion in pluginCrossBuild` for the sbt dependency.
In sbt 0.13.15, in addition to notifying the user about the existence of
sbt's shell, a feature was added to allow the user to switch to sbt's
shell - a more pro-active approach to just displaying a message.
Unfortunately sbt is often unintentionally invoked in shell scripts in
"interactive mode" when no interaction is expected by, for exmaple,
invoking `sbt package` instead of `sbt package < /dev/null`. In that
case hitting [ENTER] would silently trigger sbt to run its shell,
easily wrecking the script. In addition to that I was unhappy with the
implementation as it created a tight coupling between sbt's command
processing abstraction to sbt's shell command.
If you want to stay in sbt's shell after running a task like `package`
then invoke sbt like so:
sbt package shell
Fixes#3091
This is a change in strategy.
The motivation is the need to find a good balance between:
+ informing the uninformed that would benefit from this information, &
+ not spamming the already informed
Making it dependent on "compile" being present in remainingCommands will
probably make it trigger for, for example, Maven users who are used to
running "mvn compile" and always run "sbt compile", and who therefore
are unneccesarily suffering terribly slow compile speeds by starting up
the jvm and sbt every time.

This commit does the following things:
* Removes the boolean from the instance context passes to the linter.
* Prohibits the use of value inside anonymous functions.
* Improves the previous check of `value` inside if.
The improvements have occurred thanks to the fix of an oversight in the
traverser. As a result, several implementation of tasks have been
rewritten because of new compilation failures by both checks.
Note that the new check that prohibits the use of value inside anonymous
functions ignores all the functions whose parameters have been
synthesized by scalac (that can happen in a number of different
scenarios, like for comprehensions). Other scripted tests have also been
fixed.
Running `.value` inside an anonymous function yields the following
error:
```
[error] /data/rw/code/scala/sbt/main-settings/src/test/scala/sbt/std/TaskPosSpec.scala:50:24: The evaluation of `foo` inside an anonymous function is prohibited.
[error]
[error] Problem: Task invocations inside anonymous functions are evaluated independently of whether the anonymous function is invoked or not.
[error]
[error] Solution:
[error] 1. Make `foo` evaluation explicit outside of the function body if you don't care about its evaluation.
[error] 2. Use a dynamic task to evaluate `foo` and pass that value as a parameter to an anonymous function.
[error]
[error] val anon = () => foo.value + " "
[error] ^
```
`.value` inside the if of a regular task is unsafe. The wrapping task
will always execute the value, no matter what the if predicate yields.
This commit adds the infrastructure to lint code for every sbt DSL
macro. It also adds example of neg tests that check that the DSL checks
are in place.
The sbt checks yield error for this specific case because we may want to
explore changing this behaviour in the future. The solutions to this are
straightforward and explained in the error message, that looks like
this:
```
EXPECTED: The evaluation of `fooNeg` happens always inside a regular task.
PROBLEM: `fooNeg` is inside the if expression of a regular task.
Regular tasks always evaluate task inside the bodies of if expressions.
SOLUTION:
1. If you only want to evaluate it when the if predicate is true, use a dynamic task.
2. Otherwise, make the static evaluation explicit by evaluating `fooNeg` outside the if expression.
```
Aside from those solutions, this commit also adds a way to disable any
DSL check by using the new `sbt.unchecked` annotation. This annotation,
similar to `scala.annotation.unchecked` disables compiler output. In our
case, it will disable any task dsl check, making it silent.
Examples of positive checks have also been added.
There have been only two places in `Defaults.scala` where this check has
made compilation fail.
The first one is inside `allDependencies`. To ensure that we still have
static dependencies for `allDependencies`, I have hoisted up the value
invocation outside the if expression. We may want to explore adding a
dynamic task in the future, though. We are doing unnecessary work there.
The second one is inside `update` and is not important because it's not
exposed to the user. We use a `taskDyn`.
This change is necessary in the cases where we have global
initialization issues that have no position, like:
```
[info] [error] scala.reflect.internal.MissingRequirementError: object scala in compiler mirror not found.
```
Before, it was failing with a `sys.error` exception. Now we will report
these issues with a console reporter that is not meant to be
thread-safe.
Fixes#3178
While working on the Scopes and Scope Delegation document, I noticed that the term Global in sbt is used for two different meaning.
1. Universal fallback scope component `*`
2. An alias for GlobalScope
This disambiguates the two by renaming ScopeAxis instance to Zero.
Since this is mostly internal to sbt code, the impact to the user should be minimal.
