Type typeSemantic(Type t, Loc loc, Scope* sc);
Perform semantic analysis on a type.
Parameters:
Type t Type AST node
Loc loc the location of the type
Scope* sc context
Returns:
Type with completed semantic analysis, Terror if errors were encountered
static Type merge(Type type);
Expression getProperty(Type t, ref const Loc loc, Identifier ident, int flag);
Calculate built-in properties which just the type is necessary.
Parameters:
Type t the type for which the property is calculated
Loc loc the location where the property is encountered
Identifier ident the identifier of the property
int flag if flag & 1, don't report "not a property" error and just return NULL.
void resolve(Type mt, ref const Loc loc, Scope* sc, Expression* pe, Type* pt, Dsymbol* ps, bool intypeid = false);
Resolve type 'mt' to either type, symbol, or expression. If errors happened, resolved to Type.terror.
Parameters:
Type mt type to be resolved
Loc loc the location where the type is encountered
Scope* sc the scope of the type
Expression* pe is set if t is an expression
Type* pt is set if t is a type
Dsymbol* ps is set if t is a symbol
bool intypeid true if in type id
Expression dotExp(Type mt, Scope* sc, Expression e, Identifier ident, int flag);
Access the members of the object e. This type is same as e.type.
Parameters:
Type mt type for which the dot expression is used
Scope* sc instantiating scope
Expression e expression to convert
Identifier ident identifier being used
int flag DotExpFlag bit flags
Returns:
resulting expression with e.ident resolved
