Previously, it pointed to the start of the current token, but this made
it difficult to tell where the error occurred when it was, say, in the
middle of a string.
This commit contains everything from the copy-elision-2
branch that does not have to do with copy elision directly,
but is generally useful for master branch.
* All const values know their parents, when applicable, not
just structs and unions.
* Null pointers in const values are represented explicitly,
rather than as a HardCodedAddr value of 0.
* Rename "maybe" to "optional" in various code locations.
* Separate DeclVarSrc and DeclVarGen
* Separate PtrCastSrc and PtrCastGen
* Separate CmpxchgSrc and CmpxchgGen
* Represent optional error set as an integer, using the 0 value.
In a const value, it uses nullptr.
* Introduce type_has_one_possible_value and use it where applicable.
* Fix debug builds not setting memory to 0xaa when storing
undefined.
* Separate the type of a variable from the const value of a variable.
* Use copy_const_val where appropriate.
* Rearrange structs to pack data more efficiently.
* Move test/cases/* to test/behavior/*
* Use `std.debug.assertOrPanic` in behavior tests instead of
`std.debug.assert`.
* Fix outdated slice syntax in docs.
When doing multible codegen passes (such as building
compiler_rt and then something else) the TypeInfo cache code would point
to types from the prev code gen (such as the prev 'bool' type), giving
us errors like "expected type 'bool', but found type 'bool'"
This disabling of caching might have a performance hit, but correctness is better than
speed, so let's have this for now, until someone optimizes this
correctly (probably in stage2)
* bitreverse - give bswap behavior
* bitreverse, comptime_ints, negative values still not working?
* bitreverse working for negative comptime ints
* Finished bitreverse test cases
* Undo exporting a bigint function. @bitreverse test name includes ampersand
* added docs entry for @bitreverse
Prevents LLVM from generating debug info for
struct member functions with a pointer as the
first parameter as though the first parameter
were the implicit "this" pointer from C++.
