  • expressionsToString

    Declaration

    bool expressionsToString(ref OutBuffer buf, Scope* sc, Expressions* exps);

    Perform semantic analysis and CTFE on expressions to produce a string.

    Parameters

    OutBuffer buf

    append generated string to buffer

    Scope* sc

    context

    Expressions* exps

    array of Expressions

    Return Value

    true on error

  • semanticString

    Declaration

    StringExp semanticString(Scope* sc, Expression exp, const char* s);

    Resolve exp as a compile-time known string.

    Parameters

    Scope* sc

    scope

    Expression exp

    Expression which expected as a string

    char* s

    What the string is expected for, will be used in error diagnostic.

    Return Value

    String literal, or null if error happens.

  • resolveOpDollar

    Declaration

    Expression resolveOpDollar(Scope* sc, ArrayExp ae, Expression* pe0);

    Runs semantic on ae.arguments. Declares temporary variables if '$' was used.

  • resolveOpDollar

    Declaration

    Expression resolveOpDollar(Scope* sc, ArrayExp ae, IntervalExp ie, Expression* pe0);

    Runs semantic on se.lwr and se.upr. Declares a temporary variable if '$' was used.

    Return Value

    ae, or ErrorExp if errors occurred

  • arrayExpressionSemantic

    Declaration

    bool arrayExpressionSemantic(Expression[] exps, Scope* sc, bool preserveErrors = false);

    Perform semantic() on an array of Expressions.

  • resolvePropertiesOnly

    Declaration

    Expression resolvePropertiesOnly(Scope* sc, Expression e1);

    If e1 is a property function (template), resolve it.

  • symbolToExp

    Declaration

    Expression symbolToExp(Dsymbol s, const ref Loc loc, Scope* sc, bool hasOverloads);

    Turn symbol s into the expression it represents.

    Parameters

    Dsymbol s

    symbol to resolve

    Loc loc

    location of use of s

    Scope* sc

    context

    bool hasOverloads

    applies if s represents a function. true means it's overloaded and will be resolved later, false means it's the exact function symbol.

    Return Value

    s turned into an expression, ErrorExp if an error occurred

  • resolveIsPackage

    Declaration

    Package resolveIsPackage(Dsymbol sym);

    Determines whether a symbol represents a module or package (Used as a helper for is(type == module) and is(type == package))

    Parameters

    Dsymbol sym

    the symbol to be checked

    Return Value

    the symbol which sym represents (or null if it doesn't represent a Package)

  • trySemantic

    Declaration

    Expression trySemantic(Expression exp, Scope* sc);

    Try to run semantic routines. If they fail, return NULL.

  • unaSemantic

    Declaration

    Expression unaSemantic(UnaExp e, Scope* sc);

    Helper function for easy error propagation. If error occurs, returns ErrorExp. Otherwise returns NULL.

  • binSemantic

    Declaration

    Expression binSemantic(BinExp e, Scope* sc);

    Helper function for easy error propagation. If error occurs, returns ErrorExp. Otherwise returns NULL.

  • dotIdSemanticProp

    Declaration

    Expression dotIdSemanticProp(DotIdExp exp, Scope* sc, int flag);

    Resolve properties, i.e. e1.ident, without seeing UFCS.

    Parameters

    DotIdExp exp

    expression to resolve

    Scope* sc

    context

    int flag

    if 1 then do not emit error messages, just return null

    Return Value

    resolved expression, null if error

  • checkSharedAccess

    Declaration

    bool checkSharedAccess(Expression e, Scope* sc, bool returnRef = false);

    If expression is shared, check that we can access it. Give error message if not.

    Parameters

    Expression e

    expression to check

    Scope* sc

    context

    bool returnRef

    Whether this expression is for a return statement off a ref function, in which case a single level of dereference is allowed (e.g. shared(int)*).

    Return Value

    true on error

  • checkAddressVar

    Declaration

    bool checkAddressVar(Scope* sc, Expression exp, VarDeclaration v);

    Determine if exp, which gets its address taken, can do so safely.

    Parameters

    Scope* sc

    context

    Expression exp

    expression having its address taken

    VarDeclaration v

    the variable getting its address taken

    Return Value

    true if ok, false for error

  • checkAddressable

    Declaration

    bool checkAddressable(Expression e, Scope* sc);

    This check ensures that the object in exp can have its address taken, or issue a diagnostic error.

    Parameters

    Expression e

    expression to check

    Scope* sc

    context

    Return Value

    true if the expression is addressable

  • getThisSkipNestedFuncs

    Declaration

    Expression getThisSkipNestedFuncs(const ref Loc loc, Scope* sc, Dsymbol s, AggregateDeclaration ad, Expression e1, Type t, Dsymbol var, bool flag = false);

    Helper function for getRightThis(). Gets this of the next outer aggregate.

    Parameters

    Loc loc

    location to use for error messages

    Scope* sc

    context

    Dsymbol s

    the parent symbol of the existing this

    AggregateDeclaration ad

    struct or class we need the correct this for

    Expression e1

    existing this

    Type t

    type of the existing this

    Dsymbol var

    bool flag

    if true, return null instead of throwing an error

  • makeThis2Argument

    Declaration

    VarDeclaration makeThis2Argument(const ref Loc loc, Scope* sc, FuncDeclaration fd);

    Scope* sc

    current scope

    FuncDeclaration fd

    target function that will take the this argument

    Return Value

    Temporary closure variable.

    Note: The function fd is added to the nested references of the newly created variable such that a closure is made for the variable when the address of fd is taken.

  • verifyHookExist
