- Add logic to extract the value and suffix from a numeric literal
- This duplicates some of the lexing logic, but this is hard to avoid without redundant runtime work
- Note that I'm not using and stdlib string-to-number code. This should be more robust once it is working, but it is obviously error prone in the near term. The main up-sides to this are:
- We can handle binary integer literals
- We can handle hexadecimal floating-point literals without stdlib support
- We can hypothetically support digit separators, if we ever wanted
- The parser looks at the suffix characters sliced off by the lexer, and tries to pick a type to use for a literal
- It uses `NULL` if there is no suffix, to avoid some nasty order dependencies where the stdlib might need to parse a number before it has seen the definition of `int`
- Right now I only handle a few cases, so there may be bugs lurking here
- The emit logic needs to handle the fact that a literal node in the AST might have a non-default type attached.
- Right now I just quickly check for the most likely types, and emit the literal with a matching suffix. This doesn't seem robust if any source language supports a suffix for a type where a target has no corresponding suffix. In the long term some amount of casting is probably required.

The code:
__import foo.bar;
will try to import from a file matching "foo/bar.slang".
I also went ahead and allowed a raw string literal in and import:
__import "foo/bar";
(In the latter case, an explicit `/` must be used instead of `.`)
|
|
If module `A.slang` contains `__exported __import B;` then any declarations from `B.slang` will be visible to any client code that does `__import A;`.
This allows a user to make a single "umbrella" file that encompases a bunch of code files.
Note that this really only affects scoping during Slang compilation/checking; at code generation time everything always gets emitted as raw HLSL/GLSL so that names will be visible whether we want them to be or not.

This fixes up a bug in the earlier change that provided reflection for imported parameters; I'd failed to confirm that the code generation logic can handle imported parameters correctly.
The main fix was to have an `import` declaration automatically use the global-scope layout already determined, sine imported parameters will in general appear there.

String literals can be used as part of attributes, but we lacked an actual AST representation for them.
This change adds basic parsing for string literals, as well as emit logic for them.
I also included a fix for parsing of chained right-associative operators.
To test these fixes, I've re-enabled one of the HLSL tests I disabled a while back. It would be good to go through and see how many of those we can re-enable now.

With this change, there is now a meaningful semantic difference between `__import` and `#import`.
An `__import` compiles the target file in a fresh environment, only providing it any macro definitions passed via command line or API. Any macros defined in the imported file are not made visible at the import site. One can think of an `__import` as a bit like `using namespace` in C++.
A `#import` will tokenize the input in the same preprocessor environment as the importing file, and any macros defined along the way will be visible in the parent file.
It is a *bit* like a `#include` with two big differences:
- The imported code is always parsed as Slang, and as its own module with default flags, etc. (so semantic checks are on even if we are in "rewriter" mode). It is pulled into the outer namespace just as for `__import`.
- A given file will only get `#import`ed once for a translation unit, so it behaves a bit like there is an implicit `#pragma once` in the target file
|
|
Right now `#import` only differs from `#include` in that it takes a string literal for a file name instead of a raw identifier (to which `.slang` gets appended).
The next step is to make `#import` respect preprocessor state, while `__import` doesn't.
|
|
This is the cause of the test failures on AppVeyor.
|
|
- The basic idea is simple: be sure to enumerate code in `__import`ed modules when generating reflection info
- Note that we don't currently allow an entry point to appear in an imported module, so we only consider globlal-scope parameters
- Although there isn't currently a real implementation of namespacing, I went ahead and ensured that parameters in imported modules are treated as distinct from parameters in the user's code, even if they have the same name.

Fixes #34.
I'd declared these as if they were `InputPatch<T>`, but they are really `InputPatch<T,N>`.
This change fixes the declarations, and makes these types no longer inherit from the contrived `BuiltinGenericType`.
Instead they are more-or-less ordinary `DeclRefType`s using the same approach that `MatrixExpressionType` uses.
|
|
The basic idea of this change is that user code can just write:
#include "foo.h"
and then if `foo.h` gets found in a list of registered directories for "auto-import," then it actually gets interpreted as if the user had writte, more or less:
__import foo;
That is, the code in `foo.h` will be treated as Slang, and will be fully parsed and checked (no matter what the source language had been), and the scoping rules will be those of `__import` instead of `#include`.
This is a really big hammer, and I could imagine it smashing fingers if used poorly.
I'm not sure this feature will pan out, but we need to try things to know.
One big piece of that that I'll likely keep in either case is an overhaul of command-line options parsing for `slangc`. In particular, this logic has been moved into the core `slang` library (so that users can just pass options in via the API), and it is all done on UTF-8 strings rather than wide strings (which was always going to be Windows-specific).

- Add a test case for `interface` declarations and the exected implicit type conversion rules around them
- Rename exising "trait" declaration kind to "interface"
- There was already basic syntax for `__trait` declarations, and a bunch of related machinery.
- Not all of it worked as needed, but it was clearly a start at solving the problem
- Change `InterfaceConformanceDecl` to a more general `InheritanceDecl` that covers inheritance from any type expression (leave it to other code to validate the cases that should be allowed)
- Instead of keeping a raw `bases` array on interface/trait declarations, turn all inheritance clauses into `IheritanceDecl` members
- Add support for inheritance clause on `struct` types
- Remove the `__conforms` syntax only used in the stdlib, in favor of conentional `: Base` style syntax already in place for aggregate types
- Make sure that the parser pushes a new scope around he member declarations of an aggregate type, so that lookup in member functions will correctly find members of the enclosing type
- In `TryCoerceImpl`, allow a type that conforms to an interface to be implicitly conveted to the corresponding interface type.
This leaves out a lot of major functionality:
- There is no validation that a type provides all the members it is supposed to as part of fulfilling a claimed interface conformance
- The lookup process needs to deal with inherited members at some point.
- We can avoid this for now if we don't allow inheritance for concrete types
- When it comes time to handle it, it *might* be possible to implement by considering an `InheritanceDecl` to be, conceptually, a member of the inherited type, with a `__transparent` modifier
- The lookup rules member functions do *not* deal with a lot of stuff:
- There is no `this` expression right now
- The semantic checker does not rewrite `foo` to `this.foo`, so downstream stages aren't going to get things in a clean format
- There is no handling of mutability currently
- The right answer there is probably to make member functions on `struct` types non-mutating by default, and add a qualifier to opt in to mutability. I believe this is actually what the OOP syntax in HLSL did way back when.
- There is no handling of `static` members, and thus no checking to make sure that non-static members aren't referenced in static functions
- None of this affects down-stream code generation right now, so it probably won't actually produce anything valid.
- This is where we start needing a suitable IR to use for lowering, to manage the complexity.

This includes a bunch of related changes:
- `slang-test`
- Add a notion of an "output mode" that specifies whether we output to console (the default), or invoke the apprpriate AppVeyor command to update test status
- Add a notion of test categories, so that tests can be tagged with categories, and then we can invoke only those tets in a given category, or choose to *exclude* tests with specific categories
- Allow the `OSProcessSpawner` to look up an executable by "path" (meaning a full path is expected) or by "name" (meaning it should be allowed to look in the current directory, `PATH` environment variable, etc.). This was important to make sure that I can run `appveyor` without having to know its absolute path.
- AppVeyor configuration
- Change badge to reflect new build account for organization (rather than a single-user account)
- Remove attempt to set AppVeyor build version in a clever way, since it breaks links from GitHub to AppVeyor
- Change order or configurations in the build matrix to front-load the Release build (which has the main tests)
- Turn on `fast_finish` flag so we don't have to wait as long for failed builds
- Turn on `parallel` builds
- Set `verbosity: minimal` to avoid getting build spew about Xamarin stuff I'm not using
- Add custom `test_script` to invoke `test.bat`
- Sets the test category based on teh build configuration, so we don't run the full test suite on every input.
- `test.bat`
- Allow for `-platform` and `-configuration` arguments
- Rewrute a platform of `Win32` over to `x86` to match how the output directories are named
- Futz around with how the directories are being passed along to work around annoying `.bat` file quoting behavior (I still don't get how batch files work)
- Tests
- Mark a bunch of tests as `smoke` tests
- Mark the relevant tests as `render` tests
(these get filtered out for AppVeyor builds)

Most of the Vulkan GLSL shaders in the `sascha-willems` corpus use completely regular parameter bindings, e.g.:
```
layout (binding = 0) uniform sampler2D samplerPositionDepth;
layout (binding = 1) uniform sampler2D samplerNormal;
layout (binding = 2) uniform sampler2D ssaoNoise;
```
With the Slang compiler, we can write this kind of stuff more compactly as:
```
uniform sampler2D samplerPositionDepth;
uniform sampler2D samplerNormal;
uniform sampler2D ssaoNoise;
```
and get the exact same result (in fact, we will generate output GLSL matching the first example).
There are a few spot tests for this in the HLSL case, but I hadn't done anything for GLSL yet.
Now that we have the ability to specify multiple tests to run on each input file, it was easy enough to go in and tweak some of these files to be usable as binding-generation tests.
I didn't ammend all of the GLSL shaders for two reasons:
1. Not all of the shaders will work with completely automatic binding generation done on a per-file basis. In some cases, the parameter layout needs to consider multiple files (and the order in which the files are supplied could matter). This is probably best handled with more directed tests.
2. There is going to be a ton of duplication if I just have 100s of tests that all confirm that, yes, the Slang compiler can count vertex inputs starting from zero. These shaders aren't really presenting a whole lot of unique cases to work with.
That said, a level of confidence greater than zero is always better than zero confidence.

This is a large change that contains many pieces:
- Update the `cross-compile0` test to actually make use of cross compilation.
Now the `cross-compile0.hlsl` file contains both HLSL and GLSL source code, and then imports code from `cross-compile0.slang`, which provides a "library" (one function) that can be shared between both the HLSL and GLSL version of things.
- Fixed a bug in the support for backslash-escaped newlines.
- Added a new `__import` declaration type (replaces the `using` directive that was still around in a vestigial form)
An `__import` causes the compiler to look for a Slang source file (currently using the ordinary `#include` lookup logic), and then parse/check the found file as an additional module ("translation unit"), before making its declarations visible in the current scope.
- Refactored the main compilation flow to be simpler. There were the `ShaderCompiler` and `ShaderCompilerImpl` classes that weren't relaly doing anything, but added complexity to the whole workflow.
- The `render-test` application has been heavily modified to better support testing cross-compilation workflows. At the most basic level we are starting to distinguish pass-through vs. rewriter workflows, and are passing various `#define`s down to the compiler(s) to let the source code be customized as needed for each case.
Several annoying corner cases are caused here by having to support the GLSL compilation model, which really wants each entry point in its own specific translation unit, whereas we really want to keep things nicely contained in single files.
- Added support for `__intrinsic` operations to have target-specific behavior.
This allows a function to be given a different name for some specific target (so a call gets emitted as a call to that other operation).
More generally, the library writer can put together an arbitrary format string that will be used in place of expressions that call the given function, e.g.:
__intrinsic(hlsl, "$1 - $0") __intrinsic int foo(int a, int b);
Given this declaration, a call like `foo(x,y)` will code generate as `x - y` for HLSL, and as `foo(x,y)` for all other targets.
Annoying things still to be dealt with:
- The way that I'm filtering the user-provided options when passing things down to the compilation of dynamically loaded modules is a bit ad hoc. It would be good to have a systematic notion of which options will be inherited and which won't. There is also more code duplication than I'd like, so we risk having the compiler behave differently when compiling a file at the top level, vs. because of `__import`.
- Adding target-specific behavior to intrinsics is all well and good, but the current approach means we can only add this to the original declaration, which limits the ability to easily extend the set of targets.
A better approach long-term would be to add a more robust notion of target-based overload resolution (which would happen after semantic checking). Then one mechanism would be used to find the right target-specific overload to use for an operation, and then each (target-specific) definition could use a simpler attribute to intercept code-generation behavior.
Note that we might eventually need a similar notion to deal with stage- or profile-specific functions and the overloading behavior around them, so using this for intrinsics doesn't seem like a bad idea.

This also serves as a regression test for the recent preprocessor bug fix.
|
|
Many of the existing test cases were being skipped on accident, because their file names used `.spire` and the test tool was now looking for `.slang`
|
|
The test case that is there right now is nominally a cross-compilation test, but for right now it uses the preprocessor to present completely different code for HLSL and GLSL compilation.
This change is really just fleshing out the OpenGL side of `render-test` enough that it can produce images using OpenGL to enable further testing.
