sends. These are far trickier than instance messages, because we
typically have something like
NSArray alloc]
where it appears to be a declaration of a variable named "alloc" up
until we see the ']' (or a ':'), and at that point we can't backtrace.
So, we use a combination of syntactic and semantic disambiguation to
treat this as a message send only when the type is an Objective-C type
and it has the syntax of a class message send (which would otherwise
be ill-formed).

part of parser recovery. For example, given:
a method1:arg];
we detect after parsing the expression "a" that we have the start of a
message send expression. We pretend we've seen a '[' prior to the a,
then parse the remainder as a message send. We'll then give a
diagnostic+fix-it such as:
fixit-objc-message.m:17:3: error: missing '[' at start of message
send expression
a method1:arg];

The algorithm here is very simple, and always assumes that the open
bracket goes at the beginning of the message send. It also only works
for non-super instance message sends at this time.

strip cv-qualifiers from the expression's type when the language calls
for it: in C, that's all the time, while C++ only does it for
non-class types.
Centralized the computation of the call expression type in
QualType::getCallResultType() and some helper functions in other nodes
(FunctionDecl, ObjCMethodDecl, FunctionType), and updated all relevant
callers of getResultType() to getCallResultType().
Fixes PR7598 and PR7463, along with a bunch of getResultType() call
sites that weren't stripping references off the result type (nothing
stripped cv-qualifiers properly before this change).

temporaries. There are actually several interrelated fixes here:
- When converting an object to a base class, it's only an lvalue
cast when the original object was an lvalue and we aren't casting
pointer-to-derived to pointer-to-base. Previously, we were
misclassifying derived-to-base casts of class rvalues as lvalues,
causing various oddities (including problems with reference binding
not extending the lifetimes of some temporaries).
- Teach the code for emitting a reference binding how to look
through no-op casts and parentheses directly, since
Expr::IgnoreParenNoOpCasts is just plain wrong for this. Also, make
sure that we properly look through multiple levels of indirection
from the temporary object, but destroy the actual temporary object;
this fixes the reference-binding issue mentioned above.
- Teach Objective-C message sends to bind the result as a temporary
when needed. This is actually John's change, but it triggered the
reference-binding problem above, so it's included here. Now John
can actually test his return-slot improvements.

ObjCObjectType, which is basically just a pair of
one of {primitive-id, primitive-Class, user-defined @class}
with
a list of protocols.
An ObjCObjectPointerType is therefore just a pointer which always points to
one of these types (possibly sugared). ObjCInterfaceType is now just a kind
of ObjCObjectType which happens to not carry any protocols.
Alter a rather large number of use sites to use ObjCObjectType instead of
ObjCInterfaceType. Store an ObjCInterfaceType as a pointer on the decl rather
than hashing them in a FoldingSet. Remove some number of methods that are no
longer used, at least after this patch.
By simplifying ObjCObjectPointerType, we are now able to easily remove and apply
pointers to Objective-C types, which is crucial for a certain kind of ObjC++
metaprogramming common in WebKit.

sends. Major changes include:
- Expanded the interface from two actions (ActOnInstanceMessage,
ActOnClassMessage), where ActOnClassMessage also handled sends to
"super" by checking whether the identifier was "super", to three
actions (ActOnInstanceMessage, ActOnClassMessage,
ActOnSuperMessage). Code completion has the same changes.
- The parser now resolves the type to which we are sending a class
message, so ActOnClassMessage now accepts a TypeTy* (rather than
an IdentifierInfo *). This opens the door to more interesting
types (for Objective-C++ support).
- Split ActOnInstanceMessage and ActOnClassMessage into parser
action functions (with their original names) and semantic
functions (BuildInstanceMessage and BuildClassMessage,
respectively). At present, this split is onyl used by
ActOnSuperMessage, which decides which kind of super message it
has and forwards to the appropriate Build*Message. In the future,
Build*Message will be used by template instantiation.
- Use getObjCMessageKind() within the disambiguation of Objective-C
message sends vs. array designators.
Two notes about substandard bits in this patch:
- There is some redundancy in the code in ParseObjCMessageExpr and
ParseInitializerWithPotentialDesignator; this will be addressed
shortly by centralizing the mapping from identifiers to type names
for the message receiver.
- There is some #if 0'd code that won't likely ever be used---it
handles the use of 'super' in methods whose class does not have a
superclass---but could be used to model GCC's behavior more
closely. This code will die in my next check-in, but I want it in
Subversion.

expressions, to improve source-location information, clarify the
actual receiver of the message, and pave the way for proper C++
support. The ObjCMessageExpr node represents four different kinds of
message sends in a single AST node:
1) Send to a object instance described by an expression (e.g., [x method:5])
2) Send to a class described by the class name (e.g., [NSString method:5])
3) Send to a superclass class (e.g, [super method:5] in class method)
4) Send to a superclass instance (e.g., [super method:5] in instance method)
Previously these four cases where tangled together. Now, they have
more distinct representations. Specific changes:
1) Unchanged; the object instance is represented by an Expr*.
2) Previously stored the ObjCInterfaceDecl* referring to the class
receiving the message. Now stores a TypeSourceInfo* so that we know
how the class was spelled. This both maintains typedef information
and opens the door for more complicated C++ types (e.g., dependent
types). There was an alternative, unused representation of these
sends by naming the class via an IdentifierInfo *. In practice, we
either had an ObjCInterfaceDecl *, from which we would get the
IdentifierInfo *, or we fell into the case below...
3) Previously represented by a class message whose IdentifierInfo *
referred to "super". Sema and CodeGen would use isStr("super") to
determine if they had a send to super. Now represented as a
"class super" send, where we have both the location of the "super"
keyword and the ObjCInterfaceDecl* of the superclass we're
targetting (statically).
4) Previously represented by an instance message whose receiver is a
an ObjCSuperExpr, which Sema and CodeGen would check for via
isa<ObjCSuperExpr>(). Now represented as an "instance super" send,
where we have both the location of the "super" keyword and the
ObjCInterfaceDecl* of the superclass we're targetting
(statically). Note that ObjCSuperExpr only has one remaining use in
the AST, which is for "super.prop" references.
The new representation of ObjCMessageExpr is 2 pointers smaller than
the old one, since it combines more storage. It also eliminates a leak
when we loaded message-send expressions from a precompiled header. The
representation also feels much cleaner to me; comments welcome!
This patch attempts to maintain the same semantics we previously had
with Objective-C message sends. In several places, there are massive
changes that boil down to simply replacing a nested-if structure such
as:
if (message has a receiver expression) {
// instance message
if (isa<ObjCSuperExpr>(...)) {
// send to super
} else {
// send to an object
}
} else {
// class message
if (name->isStr("super")) {
// class send to super
} else {
// send to class
}
}
with a switch
switch (E->getReceiverKind()) {
case ObjCMessageExpr::SuperInstance: ...
case ObjCMessageExpr::Instance: ...
case ObjCMessageExpr::SuperClass: ...
case ObjCMessageExpr::Class:...
}
There are quite a few places (particularly in the checkers) where
send-to-super is effectively ignored. I've placed FIXMEs in most of
them, and attempted to address send-to-super in a reasonable way. This
could use some review.

generally recover from typos in keywords (since we would effectively
have to mangle the token stream). However, there are still benefits to
typo-correcting with keywords:
- We don't make stupid suggestions when the user typed something
that is similar to a keyword.
- We can suggest the keyword in a diagnostic (did you mean
"static_cast"?), even if we can't recover and therefore don't have
a fix-it.

receiver is a mis-typed class name. Previously, we would give a non-specific
typo-correction diagnostic from the expression-parsing code, but there
was no fix-it because it was too late to recover. Now, we give a nice
diagnostic

[Hnk method];
^~~
Honk
honk.m:1:1: note: 'Honk' declared here

We still need to recover better from mis-typing "super".

LookupInObjCMethod. Doing so allows all sorts of invalid code
to slip through to codegen. This patch does not change the
AST representation of super, though that would now be a natural
thing to do since it can only be in the receiver position and
in the base of a ObjCPropertyRefExpr.
There are still several ugly areas handling super in the parser,
but this is definitely a step in the right direction.
