2008-11-18Partial expansion of C++ operator overloading (for binary operators)Douglas Gregor
to support operators defined as member functions, e.g., struct X { bool operator==(X&); }; Overloading with non-member operators is supported, and the special rules for the implicit object parameter (e.g., the ability for a non-const *this to bind to an rvalue) are implemented. This change also refactors and generalizes the code for adding overload candidates for overloaded operator calls (C++ [over.match.expr]), both to match the rules more exactly (name lookup of non-member operators actually ignores member operators) and to make this routine more reusable for the other overloaded operators. Testing for the initialization of the implicit object parameter is very light. More tests will come when we get support for calling member functions directly (e.g., o.m(a1, a2)). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@59564 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-11-17Introduction the DeclarationName class, as a single, general method ofDouglas Gregor
representing the names of declarations in the C family of languages. DeclarationName is used in NamedDecl to store the name of the declaration (naturally), and ObjCMethodDecl is now a NamedDecl. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@59441 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-11-13Some cleanup for the implementation of built-in operatorDouglas Gregor
candidates. Thanks to Chris for the review! git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@59260 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-11-12Implement support for operator overloading using candidate operatorDouglas Gregor
functions for built-in operators, e.g., the builtin bool operator==(int const*, int const*) can be used for the expression "x1 == x2" given: struct X { operator int const*(); } x1, x2; The scheme for handling these built-in operators is relatively simple: for each candidate required by the standard, create a special kind of candidate function for the built-in. If overload resolution picks the built-in operator, we perform the appropriate conversions on the arguments and then let the normal built-in operator take care of it. There may be some optimization opportunity left: if we can reduce the number of built-in operator overloads we generate, overload resolution for these cases will go faster. However, one must be careful when doing this: GCC generates too few operator overloads in our little test program, and fails to compile it because none of the overloads it generates match. Note that we only support operator overload for non-member binary operators at the moment. The other operators will follow. As part of this change, ImplicitCastExpr can now be an lvalue. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@59148 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-11-03Standard conversion sequences now have a CopyConstructor field, toDouglas Gregor
cope with the case where a user-defined conversion is actually a copy construction, and therefore can be compared against other standard conversion sequences. While I called this a hack before, now I'm convinced that it's the right way to go. Compare overloads based on derived-to-base conversions that invoke copy constructors. Suppress user-defined conversions when attempting to call a user-defined conversion. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58629 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-11-03Add implicitly-declared default and copy constructors to C++ classes,Douglas Gregor
when appropriate. Conversions for class types now make use of copy constructors. I've replaced the egregious hack allowing class-to-class conversions with a slightly less egregious hack calling these conversions standard conversions (for overloading reasons). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58622 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-10-31Implement basic support for converting constructors in user-defined Douglas Gregor
conversions. Notes: - Overload resolution for converting constructors need to prohibit user-defined conversions (hence, the test isn't -verify safe yet). - We still use hacks for conversions from a class type to itself. This will be the case until we start implicitly declaring the appropriate special member functions. (That's next on my list) git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58513 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-10-29Tweak Sema::CheckReferenceInit so that it (optionally) computes an Douglas Gregor
ImplicitConversionSequence and, when doing so, following the specific rules of [over.best.ics]. The computation of the implicit conversion sequences implements C++ [over.ics.ref], but we do not (yet) have ranking for implicit conversion sequences that use reference binding. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58357 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-10-29Implement initialization of a reference (C++ [dcl.init.ref]) as partDouglas Gregor
of copy initialization. Other pieces of the puzzle: - Try/Perform-ImplicitConversion now handles implicit conversions that don't involve references. - Try/Perform-CopyInitialization uses CheckSingleAssignmentConstraints for C. PerformCopyInitialization is now used for all argument passing and returning values from a function. - Diagnose errors with declaring references and const values without an initializer. (Uses a new Action callback, ActOnUninitializedDecl). We do not yet have implicit conversion sequences for reference binding, which means that we don't have any overloading support for reference parameters yet. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58353 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-10-24First non-embarrassing cut at checking for ambiguous derived-to-base Douglas Gregor
conversions. Added PerformImplicitConversion, which follows an implicit conversion sequence computed by TryCopyInitialization and actually performs the implicit conversions, including the extra check for ambiguity mentioned above. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58071 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
2008-10-23Add support for conversions from a pointer-to-derived to aDouglas Gregor
pointer-to-base. Also, add overload ranking for pointer conversions (for both pointer-to-void and derived-to-base pointer conversions). Note that we do not yet diagnose derived-to-base pointer conversion errors that stem from ambiguous or inacessible base classes. These aren't handled during overload resolution; rather, when the conversion is actually used we go ahead and diagnose the error. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@58017 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-10-22QualType::isMoreQualifiedThan and isAtLeastAsQualifiedAs assert that weDouglas Gregor

2008-10-22Implement ranking of standard conversion sequences by their qualificationDouglas Gregor
conversions (e.g., comparing int* -> const int* against int* -> const volatile int*); see C++ 13.3.3.2p3 bullet 3. Add Sema::UnwrapSimilarPointerTypes to simplify the control flow of IsQualificationConversion and CompareQualificationConversion (and fix the handling of the int* -> volatile int* conversion in the former). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@57978 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

2008-10-21Initial step toward supporting qualification conversions (C++ 4.4).Douglas Gregor
Changes: - Sema::IsQualificationConversion determines whether we have a qualification conversion. - Sema::CheckSingleAssignment constraints now follows the C++ rules in C++, performing an implicit conversion from the right-hand side to the type of the left-hand side rather than checking based on the C notion of "compatibility". We now rely on the implicit-conversion code to determine whether the conversion can happen or not. Sema::TryCopyInitialization has an ugly reference-related hack to cope with the initialization of references, for now. - When building DeclRefExprs, strip away the reference type, since there are no expressions whose type is a reference. We'll need to do this throughout Sema. - Expr::isLvalue now permits functions to be lvalues in C++ (but not in C). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/cfe/trunk@57935 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
