Module `dmd.backend.type`

Types for the back end

Compiler implementation of the D programming language.

Functions

Name	Description
`param_free(pparamlst)`	Free parameter list.
`param_t_length(p)`	Compute number of parameters
`param_t_print(p)`	Pretty-print a param_t
`type_alignsize(t)`	Return the size of a type for alignment purposes.
`type_alloc(ty)`	Create a type & initialize it.
`type_allocn(ty, tn)`	Allocate a type of ty with a Tnext of tn.
`type_assoc_array(tkey, tvalue)`	Allocate an associative array type, which are key=value pairs
`type_copy(tf)`	Type type information.
`type_delegate(tnext)`	Allocate a delegate type.
`type_dyn_array(tnext)`	Allocate a dynamic array type.
`type_embed(t, u)`	Recursively check if type u is embedded in type t.
`type_enum(name, tbase)`	Create an enum type.
`type_fake(ty)`	Fake a type & initialize it.
`type_free(t)`	Free up data type.
`type_function(tyf, ptypes, variadic, tret)`	Allocate a function type.
`type_parameterSize(t, tyf)`	Compute the size of a single parameter.
`type_paramsize(t)`	Compute the total size of parameters for function call. Used for stdcall name mangling. Note that hidden parameters do not contribute to size.
`type_pointer(tnext)`	Allocate a pointer type.
`type_print(t)`	Pretty-print a type.
`type_setcv(pt, cv)`	Set/clear const and volatile bits in* pt according to the settings in cv.
`type_setmangle(pt, mangle)`	Modify the Tmangle field of a type.
`type_setty(pt, newty)`	Modify the tym_t field of a type.
`type_size(t)`	Compute size of type in bytes.
`type_static_array(dim, tnext)`	Allocate a static array type.
`type_struct_class(name, alignsize, structsize, arg1type, arg2type, isUnion, isClass, isPOD, is0size)`	Create a struct/union/class type.
`type_zeroSize(t, tyf)`	Compute special zero sized struct.
`typematch(t1, t2, relax)`	A cheap version of exp2.typematch() and exp2.paramlstmatch(), so that we can get cpp_mangle() to work for MARS. It's less complex because it doesn't do templates and can rely on strict typechecking.
