module DDC.Type.Exp
Expressions
Well-typed expressions have types of kind Data
.
XVar !a !(Bound n) | Value variable or primitive operation. |
XCon !a !(DaCon n) | Data constructor or literal. |
XLAM !a !(Bind n) !(Exp a n) | Type abstraction (level-1). |
XLam !a !(Bind n) !(Exp a n) | Value and Witness abstraction (level-0). |
XApp !a !(Exp a n) !(Exp a n) | Application. |
XLet !a !(Lets a n) !(Exp a n) | Possibly recursive bindings. |
XCase !a !(Exp a n) ![Alt a n] | Case branching. |
XCast !a !(Cast a n) !(Exp a n) | Type cast. |
XType !a !(Type n) | Type can appear as the argument of an application. |
XWitness !a !(Witness a n) | Witness can appear as the argument of an application. |
XDefix !a [Exp a n] | Some expressions and infix operators that need to be resolved into proper function applications. |
XInfixOp !a String | Use of a naked infix operator, like in 1 + 2. INVARIANT: only appears in the list of an XDefix node. |
XInfixVar !a String | Use of an infix operator as a plain variable, like in (+) 1 2. INVARIANT: only appears in the list of an XDefix node. |
Possibly recursive bindings.
Case alternatives.
data Pat n
Pattern matching.
Type casts.
CastWeakenEffect !(Effect n) | Weaken the effect of an expression. The given effect is added to the effect of the body. |
CastPurify !(Witness a n) | Purify the effect (action) of an expression. |
CastBox | Box a computation, capturing its effects in the S computation type. |
CastRun | Run a computation, releasing its effects into the environment. |
Witnesses
data Witness a n
When a witness exists in the program it guarantees that a certain property of the program is true.
Data Constructors
data DaCon n
Data constructors.
DaConUnit | Baked in unit data constructor. |
DaConPrim | Primitive data constructor used for literals and baked-in constructors. The type of the constructor needs to be attached to handle the case where there are too many constructors in the data type to list, like for Int literals. In this case we determine what data type it belongs to from the attached type of the data constructor. |
DaConBound | Data constructor that has a data type declaration. |
|
Witness Constructors
data WiCon n
Witness constructors.
WiConBuiltin !WbCon | Witness constructors baked into the language. |
WiConBound !(Bound n) !(Type n) | Witness constructors defined in the environment. In the interpreter we use this to hold runtime capabilities. The attached type must be closed. |
data WbCon
Built-in witness constructors.
These are used to convert a runtime capability into a witness that the corresponding property is true.
WbConPure | (axiom) The pure effect is pure. pure :: Pure !0 |
WbConEmpty | (axiom) The empty closure is empty. empty :: Empty $0 |
WbConUse | Convert a capability guaranteeing that a region is in the global heap, into a witness that a closure using this region is empty. This lets us rely on the garbage collector to reclaim objects in the region. It is needed when we suspend the evaluation of expressions that have a region in their closure, because the type of the returned thunk may not reveal that it references objects in that region. use :: [r : %]. Global r => Empty (Use r) |
WbConRead | Convert a capability guaranteeing the constancy of a region, into a witness that a read from that region is pure. This lets us suspend applications that read constant objects, because it doesn't matter if the read is delayed, we'll always get the same result. read :: [r : %]. Const r => Pure (Read r) |
WbConAlloc | Convert a capability guaranteeing the constancy of a region, into a witness that allocation into that region is pure. This lets us increase the sharing of constant objects, because we can't tell constant objects of the same value apart. alloc :: [r : %]. Const r => Pure (Alloc r) |
