property references to use a new PseudoObjectExpr
expression which pairs a syntactic form of the expression
with a set of semantic expressions implementing it.
This should significantly reduce the complexity required
elsewhere in the compiler to deal with these kinds of
expressions (e.g. IR generation's special l-value kind,
the static analyzer's Message abstraction), at the lower
cost of specifically dealing with the odd AST structure
of these expressions. It should also greatly simplify
efforts to implement similar language features in the
future, most notably Managed C++'s properties and indexed
properties.
Most of the effort here is in dealing with the various
clients of the AST. I've gone ahead and simplified the
ObjC rewriter's use of properties; other clients, like
IR-gen and the static analyzer, have all the old
complexity *and* all the new complexity, at least
temporarily. Many thanks to Ted for writing and advising
on the necessary changes to the static analyzer.
I've xfailed a small diagnostics regression in the static
analyzer at Ted's request.

expressions: expressions which refer to a logical rather
than a physical l-value, where the logical object is
actually accessed via custom getter/setter code.
A subsequent patch will generalize the AST for these
so that arbitrary "implementing" sub-expressions can
be provided.
Right now the only client is ObjC properties, but
this should be generalizable to similar language
features, e.g. Managed C++'s __property methods.

calls, or calls to audited functions without an explicit
return attribute, to be casted without a bridge cast.
Tie this mechanism in with the existing exceptions to
the cast restrictions. State those restrictions more
correctly and generalize.

system change in <rdar://problem/10109725> that allows conversion from
'self' in class methods to the root of the class's hierarchy. This
conversion rule is a hack that has non-trivial repurcussions
(particularly with overload resolution).

converting to an arbitrary Objective-C pointer type is. Without
significantly re-implementing anything, change the API to reflect this,
and as a minor optimization, strip the pointer conversion off before
potentially building it.
Mostly, this removes a really bizarre-looking bit of code from
BuildInstanceMessage.

than conversions of C pointers to ObjC pointers. In order to ensure that
we've caught every case, add asserts to CastExpr that strictly determine
which cast kind is used for which kind of bit cast.

'id' that can be used (only!) via a contextual keyword as the result
type of an Objective-C message send. 'instancetype' then gives the
method a related result type, which we have already been inferring for
a variety of methods (new, alloc, init, self, retain). Addresses
<rdar://problem/9267640>.

__unknown_anytype, and rewrite such message sends correctly.
I had to bite the bullet and actually add a debugger support mode for this
one, which is a bit unfortunate, but there really isn't anything else
I could imagine doing; this is clearly just debugger-specific behavior.

where we have an immediate need of a retained value.
As an exception, don't do this when the call is made as the immediate
operand of a __bridge retain. This is more in the way of a workaround
than an actual guarantee, so it's acceptable to be brittle here.

Language-design credit goes to a lot of people, but I particularly want
to single out Blaine Garst and Patrick Beard for their contributions.
Compiler implementation credit goes to Argyrios, Doug, Fariborz, and myself,
in no particular order.

Related result types apply Cocoa conventions to the type of message
sends and property accesses to Objective-C methods that are known to
always return objects whose type is the same as the type of the
receiving class (or a subclass thereof), such as +alloc and
-init. This tightens up static type safety for Objective-C, so that we
now diagnose mistakes like this:
t.m:4:10: warning: incompatible pointer types initializing 'NSSet *'
with an
expression of type 'NSArray *' [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
NSSet *array = [[NSArray alloc] init];
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Headers/NSObject.h:72:1:
note:
instance method 'init' is assumed to return an instance of its
receiver
type ('NSArray *')
- (id)init;
^
It also means that we get decent type inference when writing code in
Objective-C++0x:
auto array = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"one", @"two",nil];
// ^ now infers NSMutableArray* rather than id
llvm-svn: 132868
There are APIs, e.g. [NSValue valueWithBytes:objCType:], which use the encoding to find out
the size of an object pointed to by a pointer. Make things safer by making it illegal to @encode
incomplete types.

This patch authored by Eric Niebler.
Many methods on the Sema class (e.g. ConvertPropertyForRValue) take Expr
pointers as in/out parameters (Expr *&). This is especially true for the
routines that apply implicit conversions to nodes in-place. This design is
workable only as long as those conversions cannot fail. If they are allowed
to fail, they need a way to report their failures. The typical way of doing
this in clang is to use an ExprResult, which has an extra bit to signal a
valid/invalid state. Returning ExprResult is de riguour elsewhere in the Sema
interface. We suggest changing the Expr *& parameters in the Sema interface
to ExprResult &. This increases interface consistency and maintainability.
This interface change is important for work supporting MS-style C++
properties. For reasons explained here
<http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/cfe-dev/2011-February/013180.html>,
seemingly trivial operations like rvalue/lvalue conversions that formerly
could not fail now can. (The reason is that given the semantics of the
feature, getter/setter method lookup cannot happen until the point of use, at
which point it may be found that the method does not exist, or it may have the
wrong type, or overload resolution may fail, or it may be inaccessible.)
