Remove `std.fs.deleteTree`. Callers instead should use
`std.fs.cwd().deleteTree`.
Add `std.fs.deleteTreeAbsolute` for when the caller has an absolute
path.
* Underscores `_` may be placed between two digits in a int/float literal
* Consecutive underscores are not allowed
* Fixed parsing bug in exponents of hexadecimal float literals.
Exponents should always be base 10, but hex characters would be parsed
inside the exponent and everything after them would be ignored. eg:
`0x1.0p1ab1` would be parsed as `0x1.0p1`.
Zig now supports a more fine-grained sense of what is native and what is
not. Some examples:
This is now allowed:
-target native
Different OS but native CPU, default Windows C ABI:
-target native-windows
This could be useful for example when running in Wine.
Different CPU but native OS, native C ABI.
-target x86_64-native -mcpu=skylake
Different C ABI but otherwise native target:
-target native-native-musl
-target native-native-gnu
Lots of breaking changes to related std lib APIs.
Calls to getOs() will need to be changed to getOsTag().
Calls to getArch() will need to be changed to getCpuArch().
Usage of Target.Cross and Target.Native need to be updated to use
CrossTarget API.
`std.build.Builder.standardTargetOptions` is changed to accept its
parameters as a struct with default values. It now has the ability to
specify a whitelist of targets allowed, as well as the default target.
Rather than two different ways of collecting the target, it's now always
a string that is validated, and prints helpful diagnostics for invalid
targets. This feature should now be actually useful, and contributions
welcome to further improve the user experience.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTheTarget` is removed.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTarget` is updated to take a CrossTarget
parameter.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTargetGLibC` is removed. glibc versions are
handled in the CrossTarget API and can be specified with the `-target`
triple.
`std.builtin.Version` gains a `format` method.
this was causing unrelated behavior tests to fail.
if this commit is reverted, the docs are good, but `@newStackCall` is
already deprecated in favor of `@call`, supplying the `stack` property.
Use a struct as second parameter to be future proof (and also allows to
specify default values for the parameters)
Closes#2679 as it was just a matter of a few lines of code.
Calling with a new stack, with a runtime-known stack pointer (e.g.
not a global variable) is regressed with this branch. It is now a
compile-error, due to the Runtime Hint system not being smart enough
to mix a compile-time modifier field with a runtime stack field.
I'm OK with this regression because this feature is flawed (see #3268)
and may be deleted from the language.
Thanks to the Windows Process Environment Block, it is possible to
obtain handles to the standard input, output, and error streams without
possibility of failure.
* update docs for `@byteSwap`.
* fix hash & eql functions for ZigLLVMFnIdBswap not updated to
include vector len. this was causing incorrect bswap function
being called in unrelated code
* fix `@byteSwap` behavior tests only testing comptime and not
runtime operations
* implement runtime `@byteSwap`
* fix incorrect logic in ir_render_vector_to_array and
ir_render_array_to_vector with regards to whether or not to bitcast
* `@byteSwap` accepts an array operand which it will cast to vector
* simplify `@byteSwap` semantic analysis code and various fixes
* update documentation
- move `@shuffle` to be sorted alphabetically
- remove mention of LLVM
- minor clarifications & rewording
* introduce ir_resolve_vector_elem_type to avoid duplicate compile
error message and duplicate vector element checking logic
* rework ir_analyze_shuffle_vector to solve various issues
* improve `@shuffle` to allow implicit cast of arrays
* the shuffle tests weren't being run
I change the semantics of the mask operand, to make it a little more
flexible. There is no real danger in this because it is a compile-error
if you do it the LLVM way (and there is an appropiate error to tell you
this).
v2: avoid problems with double-free
and expand @sqrt
This revealed that the accuracy of ln is not as good as the current algorithm in
musl and glibc, and should be ported again.
v2: actually include tests
v3: fix reversal of in and out arguments on f128M_sqrt()
add test for @sqrt on comptime_float
do not include @nearbyInt() until it works on all targets.
Not all of the softfloat library is being built....
Vector support is very buggy at the moment, but should work when the bugs are fixed.
(as I had the same code working with another vector function, that hasn't been merged yet).
Previously, the symbol name parameter of `@export` would be ignored for
variables, and the variable name would be used for the symbol name.
Now it works as expected.
See #2679
* `@clz`, `@ctz`, `@popCount`, `@bswap`, `@bitreverse` now
have a type parameter
* rename @bitreverse to @bitReverse
* rename @bswap to @byteSwap
Closes#2119Closes#2120
This defines `@sizeOf` to be the runtime size of a type, which means
that it is zero for types such as comptime_int, type, and (enum
literal).
See #2209
In addition to the pointer, this gives some visual feedback to the user
that the element is interactive. This is a very common style pattern
across the web.
* Instead of the only color scheme being dark, the language reference
now has a light theme by default, and respects the user's light/dark
preference via prefers-color-scheme media query. Most browsers don't
support this yet, so we just have to wait patiently for the future to
arrive. closes#2172.
* Instead of a side bar index, the index is inline with the rest of the
content. This is simpler and more friendly to all user agents, and means
we don't need the media query for mobile devices. It also makes
back-references work, so now headers link to the table of contents
and the table of contents links to headers.
Previously, global assembly was parsed expecting it to have
the template syntax. However global assembly has no inputs,
outputs, or clobbers, and thus does not have template syntax.
This is now fixed.
This commit also adds a compile error for using volatile
on global assembly, since it is meaningless.
closes#1515
* in Zig build scripts, getOutputPath() is no longer a valid function
to call, unless setOutputDir() was used, or within a custom make()
function. Instead there is more convenient API to use which takes
advantage of the caching system. Search this commit diff for
`exe.run()` for an example.
* Zig build by default enables caching. All build artifacts will go
into zig-cache. If you want to access build artifacts in a convenient
location, it is recommended to add an `install` step. Otherwise
you can use the `run()` API mentioned above to execute programs
directly from their location in the cache. Closes#330.
`addSystemCommand` is available for programs not built with Zig
build.
* Please note that Zig does no cache evicting yet. You may have to
manually delete zig-cache directories periodically to keep disk
usage down. It's planned for this to be a simple Least Recently
Used eviction system eventually.
* `--output`, `--output-lib`, and `--output-h` are removed. Instead,
use `--output-dir` which defaults to the current working directory.
Or take advantage of `--cache on`, which will print the main output
path to stdout, and the other artifacts will be in the same directory
with predictable file names. `--disable-gen-h` is available when
one wants to prevent .h file generation.
* `@cImport` is always independently cached now. Closes#2015.
It always writes the generated Zig code to disk which makes debug
info and compile errors better. No more "TODO: remember C source
location to display here"
* Fix .d file parsing. (Fixes the MacOS CI failure)
* Zig no longer creates "temporary files" other than inside a
zig-cache directory.
This breaks the CLI API that Godbolt uses. The suggested new invocation
can be found in this commit diff, in the changes to `test/cli.zig`.
* CLI: `-target [name]` instead of `--target-*` args.
This matches clang's API.
* `builtin.Environ` renamed to `builtin.Abi`
- likewise `builtin.environ` renamed to `builtin.abi`
* stop hiding the concept of sub-arch. closes#1526
* `zig targets` only shows available targets. closes#438
* include all targets in readme, even those that don't
print with `zig targets` but note they are Tier 4
* refactor target.cpp and make the naming conventions
more consistent
* introduce the concept of a "default C ABI" for a given
OS/Arch combo. As a rule of thumb, if the system compiler
is clang or gcc then the default C ABI is the gnu ABI.
* Add docs for the inline function attribute
* Remove outdated comment
Seems like a leftover from when implicit returns were around.
* Consistent terminology
* Fixes breaches of the guarantee that `@sizeOf(T) >= @alignOf(T)`
* Fixes std.mem.secureZero for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached
* Fixes std.mem.Allocator for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached
Closes#1851Closes#1864
Previously, std.debug.assert would `@panic` in test builds,
if the assertion failed. Now, it's always `unreachable`.
This makes release mode test builds more accurately test
the actual code that will be run.
However this requires tests to call `std.testing.expect`
rather than `std.debug.assert` to make sure output is correct.
Here is the explanation of when to use either one, copied from
the assert doc comments:
Inside a test block, it is best to use the `std.testing` module
rather than assert, because assert may not detect a test failure
in ReleaseFast and ReleaseSafe mode. Outside of a test block, assert
is the correct function to use.
closes#1304
* zig fmt
* std.mem.join takes a slice of slices instead of var args
* std.mem.join takes a separator slice rather than byte,
and always inserts it. Previously it would not insert the separator
if there already was one, violating the documented behavior.
* std.mem.join calculates exactly the correct amount to allocate
and has no call to allocator.shrink()
* bring back joinWindows and joinPosix and the corresponding tests.
it is intended to be able to call these functions from any OS.
* rename std.os.path.resolveSlice to resolve (now resolve takes
a slice of slices instead of var args)
closes#1764
This adds another boolean to the test matrix; hopefully it does not
inflate the time too much.
std.event.Loop does not work with this option yet. See #1908
This commit contains everything from the copy-elision-2
branch that does not have to do with copy elision directly,
but is generally useful for master branch.
* All const values know their parents, when applicable, not
just structs and unions.
* Null pointers in const values are represented explicitly,
rather than as a HardCodedAddr value of 0.
* Rename "maybe" to "optional" in various code locations.
* Separate DeclVarSrc and DeclVarGen
* Separate PtrCastSrc and PtrCastGen
* Separate CmpxchgSrc and CmpxchgGen
* Represent optional error set as an integer, using the 0 value.
In a const value, it uses nullptr.
* Introduce type_has_one_possible_value and use it where applicable.
* Fix debug builds not setting memory to 0xaa when storing
undefined.
* Separate the type of a variable from the const value of a variable.
* Use copy_const_val where appropriate.
* Rearrange structs to pack data more efficiently.
* Move test/cases/* to test/behavior/*
* Use `std.debug.assertOrPanic` in behavior tests instead of
`std.debug.assert`.
* Fix outdated slice syntax in docs.
* bitreverse - give bswap behavior
* bitreverse, comptime_ints, negative values still not working?
* bitreverse working for negative comptime ints
* Finished bitreverse test cases
* Undo exporting a bigint function. @bitreverse test name includes ampersand
* added docs entry for @bitreverse
* add `@bswap` builtin function. See #767
* comptime evaluation facilities are improved to be able to
handle a `@ptrCast` with a backing array.
* `@truncate` allows "truncating" a u0 value to any integer
type, and the result is always comptime known to be `0`.
* when specifying pointer alignment in a type expression,
the alignment value of pointers which do not have addresses
at runtime is ignored, and always has the default/ABI alignment
* threw in a fix to freebsd/x86_64.zig to update syntax from
language changes

Currently it does not have any different behavior than `*`
but it is now recommended to use `[*]` for unknown length
pointers to be future-proof.
Instead of [ * ] being separate tokens as the proposal
suggested, this commit implements `[*]` as a single token.
See #770

zig-fmt-pointer-reform-2 branch.
This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'
* remove @cmpxchg, add @cmpxchgWeak and @cmpxchgStrong
- See explanations in the langref.
* add operand type as first parameter
* return type is ?T where T is the operand type
closes#461
Changes:
- Removed superfluous "when possible"
- Fixed typo in "documentationt"
- Added missing comma
- Moved definition of error union type up to first sentence
* instead of `async(allocator) call()`, now it is
`async<allocator> call()`.
* Fixes syntax ambiguity when leaving off the allocator
* Fixes parse failure when call is a field access
This sets a precedent for using `<` to pass arguments
to a keyword. This will affect `enum`, `union`, and
`fn` (see #661)
* DirectAllocator does the underlying syscall for every allocation.
* ArenaAllocator takes another allocator as an argument and
allocates bytes up front, falling back to DirectAllocator with
increasingly large allocation sizes, to avoid calling it too often.
Then the entire arena can be freed at once.
The self hosted parser is updated to take advantage of ArenaAllocator
for the AST that it returns. This significantly reduces the complexity
of cleanup code.
docgen and build runner are updated to use the combination of
ArenaAllocator and DirectAllocator instead of IncrementingAllocator,
which is now deprecated in favor of FixedBufferAllocator combined
with DirectAllocator.
The C allocator calls aligned_alloc instead of malloc, in order to
respect the alignment parameter.
Added asserts in Allocator to ensure that implementors of the
interface return slices of the correct size.
Fixed a bug in Allocator when you call realloc to grow the allocation.
* move std.io.File to std.os.File
* add `zig fmt` to self hosted compiler
* introduce std.io.BufferedAtomicFile API
* introduce std.os.AtomicFile API
* add `std.os.default_file_mode`
* change FileMode on posix from being a usize to a u32
* add std.os.File.mode to return mode of an open file
* std.os.copyFile copies the mode from the source file instead of
using the default file mode for the dest file
* move `std.os.line_sep` to `std.cstr.line_sep`
Before we accepted a nullable allocator for some stuff like
opening files. Now we require an allocator.
Use the mem.FixedBufferAllocator pattern if a bound on the amount
to allocate is known.
This also establishes the pattern that usually an allocator is the
first argument to a function (possibly after "self").
