Summary:
This is the first of 3 stack diffs to replace the parser of types in the clang frontend.
In this diff we remove the parser and the lexer and add a new module that does the
translation from ast types to sil types.
It is still incomplete, i.e. many c++ types are still not treated. However, all the
types that we were previously treating in C and ObjC are treated and some C++ ones, such
that the tests pass and we get good results in the apps.
Sometimes one needs to translate a record type when we havent translated the record itself,
so the translation of types and of records needs to be mutual recursive. I managed however
to get them into different modules and achieve the mutual recursion using higher order functions.
Summary:
Use the new clang plugin that outputs biniou instead of Yojson. This binary format is more compact, which makes the frontend a little faster (5 to 10%).
@update-submodule: facebook-clang-plugins
Summary:
Update fcp version and make infer build with it.
It's not using new features yet, diffs will follow.
New stuff:
Proper type information in form of pointer->type
Expose more information about cxx classes (superclass info)
Add pointers to objc method decls when possible
Summary:
This commit is the result of
`find infer/src -name '*.ml' -or -name '*.mli' -exec ocp-indent -i \{\} \;`
and
`INFER_CHECK_COPYRIGHT=1 InferPrint`
Summary:
This adds support for having lookup from pointer to decl in C frontend
NOTE: with this diff atdgen 1.6 or later is required.
To upgrade atdgen, please run `opam install atdgen.1.6.0`
Summary:
@public
The clang location information is described in an incremental way: each location information is a delta with respect to the previous one in the AST. This is based on a the visit of the AST nodes which corresponds to the order in which the lines are printed with the standard clang AST dump:
clang -cc1 -ast-dump filename.c
This diff adds a preprocessing phase to the front-end so that location information is composed during a visit, and explicit location information is used instead.
In the case of include files, we report the last known location before including the file.
The current file for a function is the file where it is defined. So if a function is entirely defined in a .h file, then the location information will consistently be about the .h file. If instead a function is defined in the source file being analyzed, and some AST nodes come from macro expansion, line information will refer to the original file.
The front-end tests reveal that the location information was incorrect in a few dot files.
Test Plan: arc unit, after having fixed the wrong location in the existing .dot files
