2025-02-05Feature/initialize list side branch (#6058)kaizhangNV
* SP004: implement initialize list translation to ctor - We synthesize a member-wise constructor for each struct follow the rules described in SP004. - Add logic to translate the initialize list to constructor invoke - Add cuda-host decoration for the synthesized constructor - Remove the default constructor when we have a valid member init constructor - Disable -zero-initialize option, will re-implement it in followup (#6109). - Fix the overload lookup issue When creating invoke expression for ctor, we need to call ResolveInvoke() to find us the best candidates, however the existing lookup logic could find us the base constructor for child struct, we should eliminate this case by providing the LookupOptions::IgnoreInheritance to lookup, this requires us to create a subcontext on SemanticsVisitor to indicate that we only want to use this option on looking the constructor. - Do not implicit initialize a struct that doesn't have explicit default constructor.

Checking in more in-progress proposals in the hopes of sparking discussion and/or guiding future implementation work.
2022-05-10Add design proposal for basic interfaces. (#2229)Theresa Foley
This change adds a `docs/proposals/` directory to give us a place to iterate on proposals for language/compiler features that are a bit too large to handle as issues. The first proposal I'm checking in here is a sketch of what our built-in numeric interfaces might want to look like. I do not propose that the design in the document is perfect or even *finished*. The goal here is to get things checked into source control to foster subsequent discussion and iteration.
