pennae b7cac2b2dc normalize formal order on ExprLambda::show
we already normalize attr order to lexicographic, doing the same for
formals makes sense. doubly so because the order of formals would
otherwise depend on the context of the expression, which is not quite as
useful as one might expect.

pennae f416527164 keep copies of parser inputs that are in-memory only
the parser modifies its inputs, which means that sharing them between
the error context reporting system and the parser itself can confuse the
reporting system. usually this led to early truncation of error context
reports which, while not dangerous, can be quite confusing.

pennae 375cc2438a remove ExprAttrs::AttrDef::inherited
it's no longer widely used and has a rather confusing meaning now that
inherit-from is handled very differently.
2024-02-26 15:37:42 +01:00
pennae a704123ea1 evaluate inherit (from) exprs only once per directive
desugaring inherit-from to syntactic duplication of the source expr also
duplicates side effects of the source expr (such as trace calls) and
expensive computations (such as derivationStrict).
2024-02-26 15:37:40 +01:00
pennae ecf8b12d60 group inherit by source during Expr::show
for plain inherits this is really just a stylistic choice, but for
inherit-from it actually fixes an exponential size increase problem
during expr printing (as may happen during assertion failure reporting,
on during duplicate attr detection in the parser)
2024-02-12 13:58:29 +01:00
pennae 6c08fba533 use the same bindings print for ExprAttrs and ExprLet
this also has the effect of sorting let bindings lexicographically
rather than by symbol creation order as was previously done, giving a
better canonicalization in the process.
2024-02-12 13:35:00 +01:00
pennae 1f542adb3e add ExprAttrs::AttrDef::chooseByKind
in place of inherited() — not quite useful yet since we don't
distinguish plain and inheritFrom attr kinds so far.

Valentin Gagarin 60045f9c96 add clickable anchor links
how the different invocations relate to each other seems be
confusing, which is relatable because one has to wire it up in your head
while reading. an explicit reference should make it unambiguous and
easier to notice due to links being highlighted.

Don't hardcode the -O2 compiler flag
autoconf authors apparently decided that setting `-O2` by default was a good idea. I disagree, and Nix has its own way of deciding that (with `OPTIMIZE={0,1}`). Explicitly set `CFLAGS` and `CXXFLAGS` in the configure script to disable that behaviour.

Fix #9965

Rename hintfmt to HintFmt 2024-02-08 11:58:25 -08:00
Rebecca Turner 149bd63afb
Cleanup fmt.hh
When I started contributing to Nix, I found the mix of definitions and
names in `fmt.hh` to be rather confusing, especially the small
difference between `hintfmt` and `hintformat`. I've renamed many classes
and added documentation to most definitions.

- `formatHelper` is no longer exported.
- `fmt`'s documentation is now with `fmt` rather than (misleadingly)
  above `formatHelper`.
- `yellowtxt` is renamed to `Magenta`.

  `yellowtxt` wraps its value with `ANSI_WARNING`, but `ANSI_WARNING`
  has been equal to `ANSI_MAGENTA` for a long time. Now the name is
  updated.
- `normaltxt` is renamed to `Uncolored`.
- `hintfmt` has been merged into `hintformat` as extra constructor
  functions.
- `hintformat` has been renamed to `hintfmt`.
- The single-argument `hintformat(std::string)` constructor has been
  renamed to a static member `hintformat::interpolate` to avoid pitfalls
  with using user-generated strings as format strings.
