|
|
content of module signatures).
|
|
|

(** Type expressions for the core language.
|
|
|
|
The [type_desc] variant defines all the possible type expressions one can
|
|
find in OCaml. [type_expr] wraps this with some annotations.
|
|
|
|
The [level] field tracks the level of polymorphism associated to a type,
|
|
guiding the generalization algorithm.
|
|
Put shortly, when referring to a type in a given environment, both the type
|
|
and the environment have a level. If the type has an higher level, then it
|
|
can be considered fully polymorphic (type variables will be printed as
|
|
['a]), otherwise it'll be weakly polymorphic, or non generalized (type
|
|
variables printed as ['_a]).
|
|
See [http://okmij.org/ftp/ML/generalization.html] for more information.
|
|
|
|
Note about [type_declaration]: one should not make the confusion between
|
|
[type_expr] and [type_declaration].
|
|
|
|
[type_declaration] refers specifically to the [type] construct in OCaml
|
|
language, where you create and name a new type or type alias.
|
|
|
|
[type_expr] is used when you refer to existing types, e.g. when annotating
|
|
the expected type of a value.
|
|
|
|
Also, as the type system of OCaml is generative, a [type_declaration] can
|
|
have the side-effect of introducing a new type constructor, different from
|
|
all other known types.
|
|
Whereas [type_expr] is a pure construct which allows referring to existing
|
|
types.

|

Note on mutability: TBD.
