Generic typealiases

Chris_Lattner · 2016-03-08T07:09:42.000Z

Hi All,

I just landed an implementation of generic typealiases, e.g. things like:

    typealias StringDictionary<T> = Dictionary<String, T>
    typealias IntFunction<T> = (T) -> Int
    typealias MatchingTriple<T> = (T, T, T)
    typealias BackwardTriple<T1,T2,T3> = (T3, T2, T1)

etc now work.

I have tested various scenarios with them, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there are corner cases that aren’t working yet. Please try kicking them around and let me know if you run into any problems, thanks!

I tried doing a SourceKit cursor-info on a generic typealias of a tuple type, but it crashed when trying to mangle any of the typealias's generic parameters. Should we be able to mangle the generic parameter, or do we need an early exit?

Assertion failed: (isa<NominalTypeDecl>(ctx) && "Only nominal types are contexts for mangleable entities"), function mangleContext, file /Users/blangmuir/src/s/swift/lib/AST/Mangle.cpp, line 254.

W00t; I didn't know this was coming!

Thanks for catching this, and for the great testcase. I implemented mangling/usr generation in ae919bd.
