v3.types #

Type aliases type values used by types.

fn builtin_type(name string) ?Type

builtin_type returns the Type for a builtin type name, or none otherwise.

fn builtin_type_value(name string) Type

builtin_type_value returns the Type for a known builtin type name.

fn clone_owned_type(value Type) Type

clone_owned_type clones a type and all nested owned metadata.

fn clone_owned_types(values []Type) []Type

clone_owned_types clones a list of types and all nested owned metadata.

fn defer_result_index(node flat.Node) ?int

defer_result_index returns -1 for an unindexed $res() node and the non-negative index for a $res(index) node.

fn extend_stable_type_indexes(mut indexes map[string]int, type_names []string)

extend_stable_type_indexes assigns deterministic, collision-free runtime indexes to new names without changing indexes that have already been used during lowering.

fn extend_stable_type_indexes_ref(mut indexes map[string]int, type_names &[]string)

extend_stable_type_indexes_ref is the pointer-ABI form used by native compiler stages.

fn generic_base_name(name string) string

generic_base_name returns the declaration part of a concrete generic type name.

fn is_builtin_type_name(name string) bool

is_builtin_type_name reports whether name is one of V's builtin type names.

fn new_scope(parent &Scope) &Scope

new_scope returns a reusable type-checker scope with an optional parent.

fn stable_interface_type_ids(impl_names []string) map[string]int

stable_interface_type_ids assigns deterministic nonzero _typ dispatch IDs to interface implementers in caller-supplied order. Hash collisions are resolved with linear probing after earlier names keep their IDs, so late generic implementers appended after transform cannot shift IDs already emitted for existing interface values/checks.

fn stable_interface_type_ids_preserving_prefix(prefix []string, impl_names []string) map[string]int

stable_interface_type_ids_preserving_prefix assigns IDs for impl_names while keeping all prefix IDs exactly as they would be when assigned alone.

fn stable_type_index(name string) int

stable_type_index returns the deterministic nonzero runtime-index seed for a named type. Use stable_type_indexes when assigning indexes across a complete program type set.

fn stable_type_indexes(type_names []string) map[string]int

stable_type_indexes assigns deterministic, collision-free runtime indexes to the complete caller-supplied program type set.

fn type_text_contains_typeof(s string) bool

parse_type converts a V type string (from parser) to a structured Type. type_text_contains_typeof is a fast substring probe for typeof(: type texts are overwhelmingly short scalar/container names, so the length early-out plus a first-byte scan beats string.contains (KMP table build and call overhead) on hot paths that must screen every text.

fn unalias_type(t Type) Type

unalias_type follows an alias chain to its underlying type, unwrapping each Alias to its base type until a non-alias type is reached and returned.

fn unsigned_shift_result_type(t Type) Type

unsigned_shift_result_type returns the unsigned counterpart used as the result of >>>.

fn unwrap_all_pointers(t Type) Type

unwrap_all_pointers removes every pointer layer from t.

fn unwrap_pointer(t Type) Type

unwrap_pointer transforms unwrap pointer data for types.

fn Properties.from[W](input W) !Properties

fn Properties.zero() Properties

fn ReceiverMutationVisibility.from[W](input W) !ReceiverMutationVisibility

fn RecursiveStrAggregateSlotKind.from[W](input W) !RecursiveStrAggregateSlotKind

fn RecursiveStrMutationEffect.from[W](input W) !RecursiveStrMutationEffect

fn TypeChecker.new(a &flat.FlatAst) TypeChecker

new creates a TypeChecker value for types.

fn TypeErrorKind.from[W](input W) !TypeErrorKind

	// name_mask is a conservative bloom filter over this scope's own binding
	// names: a cleared bit proves the name is absent, letting chain walks skip
	// the per-level map probe (most lookups walk many levels that do not bind
	// the name at all). False positives only cost the probe they would have
	// paid anyway.
	name_mask        u64

	next_generation  int
	lifetime         int
}

Scope represents scope data used by types.

	// Transform forks write overlay entries only for nodes appended after the
	// fork. IDs below this boundary are guaranteed to live in the shared dense
	// checker arrays, so reads can avoid probing two sparse maps per expression.
	base_node_count int
}

TransformForkOverlay holds the call/fn-value resolutions a parallel-transform worker records for its transform-created (cloned) nodes. It lives on the heap (like TypeCache) so a worker's &TypeChecker fork can write through the pointer without mutating the shared node-indexed arrays; reads consult the overlay before those arrays, and merge_worker replays the entries into the master under the shifted node ids.

TypeChecker represents type checker data used by types.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) annotate_types()

annotate_types performs a scope-aware walk over every function body, tracking local variable types as they are declared, and records complex/contextual expression types. This mirrors what the v2 transformer relies on: the type checker runs BEFORE the transformer and publishes per-expression types, so the transformer can own type-dependent lowering (string ops, in membership, ...) instead of the backend.

It uses a single flat scope per function (an over-approximation: a local stays visible after its block ends), which is harmless for type lookup since variable names are effectively unique within a function.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) annotate_types_with_used(used_fns map[string]bool)

annotate_types_with_used annotates only functions that can be emitted when used_fns is non-empty. This mirrors transform/cgen pruning and avoids resolving types in dead, untransformed function bodies after markused.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) annotate_types_with_used_missing_calls(used_fns map[string]bool, source_node_count int)

annotate_types_with_used_missing_calls revisits only reachable functions containing calls whose checked binding was invalidated by lowering, plus functions synthesized after the source AST. Unchanged calls retain the binding recorded by semantic checking and copied by the transformer.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) arm_body_resolve_memo(lo int, hi int)

arm_body_resolve_memo (re)activates the per-item resolve memo for one work item's node range. The transformer arms it per lowered function exactly like the checker does per checked item; node-write helpers invalidate rewritten slots (see invalidate_checked_expr_type).

fn (tc &TypeChecker) autofree_enabled() bool

autofree_enabled reports whether compatibility autofree lowering is active.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) begin_sparse_transform_node_caches(base_nodes int)

begin_sparse_transform_node_caches keeps source-node entries in their dense checked arrays and records transform-created node metadata sparsely.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) c_type(t Type) string

c_type supports c type handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) cached_c_name(name string) string

cached_c_name memoizes naming.c_name results in the type cache (falling back to the frozen base cache read-only, like every other entry kind). c_name is pure and called on hot resolution paths in every phase.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) canonical_qualified_type_name(name string) ?string

canonical_qualified_type_name resolves a possibly bare or partially qualified type name (e.g. PoolProcessor or pool.PoolProcessor) to its unique fully qualified spelling (sync.pool.PoolProcessor). It returns none when the name is unknown or when the short name is ambiguous across modules. Backends use this to rebuild method/type C names when a receiver type carries only the import-local module qualifier instead of the full module path.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) canonical_symbol(name string) string

canonical_symbol returns the compilation-owned canonical spelling of name.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_concrete_fn_semantics(fn_idx int, file string, module_name string)

check_concrete_fn_semantics validates a concrete generic function clone before the transformer lowers its body. The clone retains source positions, so errors use the normal checker renderer instead of positionless transform diagnostics.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_interface_embedding_limits() bool

check_interface_embedding_limits rejects deep interface casts before requirement indexes recursively expand the embedding chain.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_main_module_requirement(is_shared bool)

check_main_module_requirement rejects ordinary programs that contain no selected source file in the main module.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_semantics()

check_semantics validates check semantics state for types.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_semantics_opt(want_parallel bool) bool

check_semantics_opt runs semantic checks, using worker threads for independent function bodies when requested and there is enough work.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_semantics_reachable(selected map[string]bool)

check_semantics_reachable validates only selected function declarations and bodies, plus top-level statements in the selected input. It is intended for source shapes that have already proven they cannot declare any other items.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) check_semantics_selected(selected map[string]bool)

check_semantics_selected validates declarations and only the named function bodies. It is used by the function-level incremental compiler after it has proven that every top-level declaration is unchanged.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) clear_c_type_cache()

clear_c_type_cache invalidates C spellings after monomorphization changes concrete type identities and adds materialized generic types.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) clear_field_lookup_cache()

fn (tc &TypeChecker) clear_interface_impl_cache()

clear_interface_impl_cache invalidates memoized implementer lists after a type-table change.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) clear_resolved_fn_value(id flat.NodeId)

clear_resolved_fn_value removes stale function-value metadata after a later transform proves that an identifier refers to a value declaration.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) collect(a &flat.FlatAst)

fn (tc &TypeChecker) concrete_method_signature_key(concrete_name string, method string) ?string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) const_int_value(name string, seen []string) ?int

const_int_value supports const int value handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) const_int_value_in_module(name string, module_name string, seen []string) ?int

const_int_value_in_module supports const int value handling for a specific module.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) const_owner_module(name string) string

const_owner_module returns the declaration module for a checker-resolved constant key.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) copy_cloned_resolution(src_id flat.NodeId, dst_id flat.NodeId)

copy_cloned_resolution copies checker-owned call/function-value resolution metadata from an original node to a transform-created clone.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) declaration_has_attribute(node_id flat.NodeId, name string) bool

declaration_has_attribute reports whether a declaration has the named attribute.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) diagnose_unused_private_declarations(used_fns map[string]bool)

fn (tc &TypeChecker) direct_dependencies(fn_node_id int) []string

direct_dependencies returns canonical dependency names for compatibility.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) direct_dependency_ids(fn_node_id int) []SymbolId

direct_dependency_ids returns the checker-resolved function dependency identities of a function declaration node. The slice is read-only.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) disable_resolution_type_view_cache()

disable_resolution_type_view_cache prevents a scoped cache from escaping the phase that allocated it.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) disarm_body_resolve_memo()

disarm_body_resolve_memo deactivates the per-item resolve memo.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) discard_type_cache_overlay_after_forks()

discard_type_cache_overlay_after_forks reattaches the frozen cache without publishing memoized entries from parallel work. C generation uses this after its workers join because the driver replaces the cache at the end of the stage, and worker-arena values must not escape into the persistent base.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) enable_scoped_parallel_workers()

enable_scoped_parallel_workers uses disposable prealloc arenas for parallel checker helpers. Ownership checking keeps its existing long-lived workers.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) ensure_private_transform_signatures()

ensure_private_transform_signatures detaches the signature tables before a transform worker writes them. The worker's private maps are merged while its disposable arena is still alive.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) ensure_private_transform_structs()

ensure_private_transform_structs detaches struct metadata before a transform worker publishes a generated capture context into its private result.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) expr_is_method_value(id flat.NodeId) bool

expr_is_method_value reports whether id is a selector that resolves to a method value — a struct/interface method used as a value (obj.draw), not a field access or a method call. cgen backs such values with per-instance closure contexts.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) expr_type(id flat.NodeId) ?Type

expr_type returns the resolved type recorded for a node during annotate_types.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fixed_array_len_value(arr ArrayFixed) ?int

fixed_array_len_value returns the evaluated fixed-array length when it can be resolved.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fn_body_definitely_returns(node flat.Node) bool

fn_body_definitely_returns supports fn body definitely returns handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fn_param_types_for_name(name string) []Type

fn_param_types_for_name returns the collected parameter types for a resolved call name.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fn_signature_type(name string, typ string) Type

fn_signature_type resolves a raw function signature type in its declaration module.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fork_for_parallel_codegen() &TypeChecker

fork_for_parallel_codegen returns a complete read-only semantic view with private scope and memoization state for one C-generation worker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) fork_for_parallel_transform(ast &flat.FlatAst) &TypeChecker

fork_for_parallel_transform returns a TypeChecker that shares all of tc's read-only data (semantic maps and node-indexed cache arrays, which the transform pass only reads) but owns a fresh, private type_cache and a private AST view. During transform the only hidden mutation a TypeChecker performs through its & receiver is memoization into type_cache (parse_type / c_type); giving each worker its own cache makes concurrent use race-free without cloning the large semantic maps. ast must be the worker's own (cloned) FlatAst so that any expr_type lookup on a freshly-created node id indexes a valid array.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) free_parallel_transform_caches()

free_parallel_transform_caches releases private memoization maps owned by a forked transform checker and leaves it valid if it is accidentally read again.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) freeze_interface_impl_names()

freeze_interface_impl_names snapshots the interface implementation order used by transform-generated _typ checks before later metadata cleanup can remove unused generic declarations and shift cgen's ids.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) freeze_pre_transform_interface_impl_names()

freeze_pre_transform_interface_impl_names freezes the immutable implementer indexes prepared before transform. Transform does not add declarations; later generic implementers remain discoverable because the matching candidate set is frozen with the indexes.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) freeze_type_cache_for_forks()

freeze_type_cache_for_forks freezes this checker's warm type cache as the shared read-only base for parallel forks (fork_for_parallel_transform picks it up) and switches the checker itself to a private overlay so its own memoization writes cannot race fork reads. Callable on a shared reference: the transformer holds the checker as &TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) frozen_symbol_name(id SymbolId) string

frozen_symbol_name resolves an id after semantic checking has frozen the compilation's symbol table. Post-check reachability runs concurrently only with read-only transform preparation, so it does not need the interner lock.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) generic_type_name_matches(a string, b string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) has_fn_decl_short_name(name string) bool

has_fn_decl_short_name reports whether collection indexed a function declaration with the given unqualified name.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ierror_impl_names() []string

ierror_impl_names returns the concrete struct names that can be boxed as IError.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) index_operator_call_info(base_type Type, op string) ?CallInfo

fn (tc &TypeChecker) index_overload_call_info(typ Type, setter bool) ?CallInfo

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) inherit_ownership_codegen_metadata_from(_ &TypeChecker)

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_abstract_method_names(iface_name string) []string

interface_abstract_method_names returns the methods an implementer must provide: the interface's own declared (abstract) methods plus those of any embedded interfaces. Default methods defined directly on the interface are excluded.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_accepts_implicit_str(iface_name string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_concrete_method_keys() []string

interface_concrete_method_keys returns generated interface dispatch methods and concrete method declarations that can be called by those dispatch functions.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_field_list(iface_name string) []StructField

interface_field_list supports interface field list handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_impl_names(iface_name string) []string

interface_impl_names returns the concrete type names (structs and type aliases) that implement iface_name. Once a snapshot is frozen, its names stay first so transform-emitted interface IDs are preserved; later implementers are appended in deterministic discovery order.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_impl_set_signature() string

interface_impl_set_signature returns the complete deterministic interface implementer set that controls collision-resolved dispatch IDs for the current program.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_implements_interface(actual_name string, expected_name string) bool

interface_implements_interface supports interface implements interface handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_metadata_name(name string) string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_method_signature_key(iface_name string, method string) ?string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) interface_type_ids(iface_name string) map[string]int

interface_type_ids returns the _typ dispatch IDs for an interface, preserving any snapshot IDs emitted before late generic implementers were discovered.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) invalidate_checked_expr_type(idx int)

cached_expr_type supports cached expr type handling for TypeChecker. invalidate_checked_expr_type drops the cached checked type for one node the transformer rewrote in place, so a trust_checked_expr_types resolve cannot return the pre-rewrite type (see resolve_type). Rewrites target ids inside the writer's own disjoint region, so the shared dense flag array sees no concurrent writes to the same slot.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) invalidate_direct_parent_index()

invalidate_direct_parent_index makes generated-node lookups validate parent metadata.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) invalidate_short_type_name_index()

invalidate_short_type_name_index drops memoized type-name-derived indexes; callers that add or remove entries in the type-name maps after the checker ran (the monomorphizer specializing generic structs/sum types) must invalidate them.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) is_locally_declared_bare_type(name string) bool

is_locally_declared_bare_type reports whether the bare name is a type declared in the current program (main module), which is bare-keyed in the type tables. Such a name denotes that local type, not an unqualified spelling of some other module's type.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) is_veb_context_type(typ Type) bool

is_veb_context_type reports whether typ is veb.Context or embeds it.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) iterator_for_in_elem_type(typ Type) ?Type

fn (tc &TypeChecker) iterator_for_in_next_call_info(typ Type) ?CallInfo

fn (tc &TypeChecker) iterator_for_in_next_call_info_text(type_text string) ?CallInfo

iterator_for_in_next_call_info_text returns the specialized next call metadata for an iterator type.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) materialize_sparse_transform_node_caches(n int, capacity int)

materialize_sparse_transform_node_caches compacts transform-created semantic entries into dense node-indexed arrays and reserves their expected final capacity before monomorphization appends more nodes.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) multi_expr_tail_types_for_transform(expr_id flat.NodeId, count int) ?[]Type

multi_expr_tail_types_for_transform returns promoted multi-expression tail types for transform lowering without duplicating checker compatibility rules.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) named_type_compatible_with_ierror(concrete_name string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) named_type_implements_interface(concrete_name string, iface_name string) bool

named_type_implements_interface supports helper handling in types.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) named_type_implements_marker(concrete_name string, target string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_assignment_reinitializes_moved_value(_ flat.NodeId) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_default_clone_missing_method(_ Type) ?string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_fn_exit(_ string) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_loop_control(_ string, _ int) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_loop_iteration(_ string, _ int) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_propagation(_ string, _ int) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_return(_ string, _ int) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_return_node(_ string, _ flat.NodeId) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_entries_at_scope_exit(_ string, _ int) []OwnershipDropEntry

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_drop_type_names() []string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_expr_creates_owned_value(_ flat.NodeId) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_expr_moves_storage(_ flat.NodeId, _ flat.NodeId) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_fn_value_returns_owned(_ flat.NodeId, _ string, _ string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_guard_read_moves_value(_ flat.NodeId) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_index_read_moves_value(_ flat.NodeId) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_time_spent_us() i64

ownership_time_spent_us reports the accumulated ownership-analysis time for the dedicated benchmark stage. Compiled-out ownership (no -d ownership) cannot spend time, so this returns 0 by construction in plain builds.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_type_has_clone_method(typ Type) bool

ownership_type_has_clone_method reports whether typ declares a handwritten clone method. It is kept in the always-built checker surface because ownership transform support is compiled into the V executable even when the executable itself is built without ownership.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_type_requires_destruction(_ Type) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) ownership_type_requires_drop(_ Type) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) parse_canonical_type(typ string) Type

parse_canonical_type parses compiler-produced type text while preserving an exact known qualified symbol before consulting the current file's import aliases. Source text must continue to use parse_type, where aliases take precedence; this entry point is for semantic names carried between phases.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) parse_resolution_type(typ string) Type

parse_resolution_type parses type text that can mix declaration-local names with concrete generic arguments from another module.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) parse_type(typ string) Type

fn (tc &TypeChecker) parse_type_ref(typ string, text_id u16) Type

parse_type_ref resolves a node annotation through its exact canonical text identity. Context remains part of the key because an unqualified spelling can denote different types in different files/modules.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) pop_scope()

pop_scope updates pop scope state for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) pre_transform_interface_impl_names(iface_name string) ?[]string

pre_transform_interface_impl_names returns the immutable implementer snapshot prepared after semantic checking and before generic monomorphization.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) precompute_source_error_embed_index()

precompute_source_error_embed_index builds the immutable source-error embedding index once before parallel consumers fork their private memoization overlays.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) prepare_interface_query_indexes()

prepare_interface_query_indexes publishes immutable interface requirements and implementer lists for transform workers.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) prepare_interface_requirement_indexes()

prepare_interface_query_indexes publishes immutable interface requirements for transform workers. Interface declarations no longer change after semantic checking, so compatibility scans can reuse these lists safely across threads.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) prepare_threads_condition()

prepare_threads_condition caches whether selected inputs or their reachable imports use spawn.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) promote_scoped_transform_interners(type_start int, symbol_start int, scope voidptr)

promote_scoped_transform_interners moves additions made by a scoped transform into the current compilation arena before that scope is freed.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) prune_inactive_top_level_comptime(mut a flat.FlatAst)

prune_inactive_top_level_comptime removes declarations and expressions from inactive top-level compile-time branches after semantic checking and before later compiler stages.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) push_scope()

push_scope updates push scope state for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) qualify_fn_name(name string) string

qualify_fn_name supports qualify fn name handling for TypeChecker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) qualify_name(name string) string

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) rebind_ast(a &flat.FlatAst)

rebind_ast updates the AST view after the driver clones transformed storage. All collected declaration/type metadata remains valid because cloning preserves node ids.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) rebuild_fn_param_suffix_index()

rebuild_fn_param_suffix_index refreshes the suffix index after a batch replaces or removes synthesized signatures.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) rebuild_scoped_transform_signature_maps()

rebuild_scoped_transform_signature_maps moves signature maps, keys, and nested type metadata into the current arena after a disposable transform scope has been left.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) record_cgen_error_at(msg string, node flat.NodeId, source_id flat.NodeId, marker string)

record_cgen_error_at records a post-transform validation error with cgen severity.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) refresh_direct_parent_index(a &flat.FlatAst)

refresh_direct_parent_index rebuilds parent metadata after source-tree pruning.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) refresh_rewritten_parent_index(a &flat.FlatAst)

refresh_rewritten_parent_index rebuilds the node-parent edges after transform without resetting declaration metadata collected during semantic checking. Rewritten trees can contain hundreds of thousands of new nodes; leaving those nodes outside direct_parent_ids makes every parent query scan the whole AST.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) register_generated_fn_param_types(name string, params []Type)

register_generated_fn_param_types records a synthesized function signature and keeps the receiver/method suffix index complete for post-check phases.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) register_short_type_name(name string)

register_short_type_name extends an already-built short-name index after monomorphization adds a concrete type. A scoped transform must not rebuild the entire index from maps whose strings may belong to the checked arena.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) register_synth_type(id flat.NodeId, typ Type)

register_synth_type records the type of a generated or transformed node.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reserve_scoped_transform_metadata(signature_headroom int)

reserve_scoped_transform_metadata keeps tables that receive escaping transform additions in the compilation arena in the common case while scratch allocations use a disposable arena. The signature maps are rebuilt after promotion, so this headroom is an optimization rather than an ownership requirement.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reserve_transform_node_caches(n int)

reserve_transform_node_caches reserves node-indexed semantic storage before a scoped transform starts, keeping the escaping slabs in the compilation arena.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) reset_body_resolve_memo()

reset_body_resolve_memo detaches the memo entirely. The transformer arms it inside a disposable stage arena, so the master checker must drop the pointer before that arena is released — later phases would otherwise dereference a freed allocation just to see that the memo is inactive.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reset_resolution_type_view_cache()

reset_resolution_type_view_cache discards lookup views that may have been created inside a completed scoped parallel phase.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reset_resolved_calls_for_reannotation()

reset_resolved_calls_for_reannotation discards pre-transform call-name bindings before the transformed AST is annotated again. The annotation walk resolves and records every reachable call against the final AST/signatures.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reset_type_interners()

reset_type_interners replaces semantic interners whose backing storage may have grown inside a disposable compiler-stage arena.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_any_selective_import_fn(name string) ?string

resolve_any_selective_import_fn resolves an unqualified selected function when every source file that selects the name agrees on the same declaration.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_generic_struct_method(type_name string, method string) ?CallInfo

resolve_type_name_for_method resolves resolve type name for method information for types. resolve_generic_struct_method resolves a method call on a generic-struct instance (e.g. Vec4[f32].r_sqrt). The method is registered against the generic form (Vec4[T].r_sqrt); this maps the instance's concrete type arguments onto the generic parameters and substitutes them into the method's signature, so the pre-transform checker accepts the call. The transformer's monomorphize pass later materialises the concrete method body.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_generic_sum_method(type_name string, method string) ?CallInfo

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_ierror_payload_name(name string) string

resolve_ierror_payload_name resolves scoped Error/MessageError names before falling back to the builtin error structs.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_imported_type_text_in_file(typ string, file string) string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolve_type(id flat.NodeId) Type

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolved_call_is_builtin(id flat.NodeId, name string) bool

resolved_call_is_builtin reports whether id resolved to the named builtin function.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolved_call_name(id flat.NodeId) ?string

resolved_call_name returns the checker-resolved function name for a call node.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolved_call_never_returns(id flat.NodeId) bool

resolved_call_never_returns reports whether a call node resolved to a known no-return function.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) resolved_fn_value_name(id flat.NodeId) ?string

resolved_fn_value_name returns the checker-resolved function name for a function value node.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) reuse_direct_parent_index_for_unchanged_ast(a &flat.FlatAst) bool

reuse_direct_parent_index_for_unchanged_ast restores the parsed-tree index's trusted status when an internal valid-build path has not structurally rewritten the AST.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) runtime_type_index_names() []string

runtime_type_index_names returns the canonical program type names that can participate in runtime interface/sum type_idx() lowering.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) scoped_parallel_workers_enabled() bool

scoped_parallel_workers_enabled reports whether compiler stages should use short-lived worker arenas with this checker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) selector_const_type(node flat.Node) ?Type

selector_const_type returns the declared type for a selector const expression.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) set_fresh_type_cache(parse_enabled bool)

set_fresh_type_cache attaches a new empty TypeCache. Parallel-cgen worker checkers use this so the lazily-built lookup indexes and memoizations work per worker instead of falling back to their uncached full scans.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) set_fresh_type_cache_based_on(src &TypeChecker, parse_enabled bool)

set_fresh_type_cache_based_on attaches a new empty TypeCache that falls back read-only to src's frozen base cache (see freeze_type_cache_for_forks), so parallel-cgen workers start with every type memoized by the check/transform phases instead of re-deriving them from a cold cache.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) share_direct_dependencies_from(source &TypeChecker)

share_direct_dependencies_from reuses the immutable post-check dependency graph in a synchronous compiler stage view. Parallel checker/transform workers must keep their private dependency maps so resolution writes cannot race.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) struct_field_c_abi_fn_ptr_type(struct_name string, field_name string) ?string

struct_field_c_abi_fn_ptr_type returns the C ABI function-pointer type for a struct field.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) struct_field_is_shared(struct_name string, field_name string) bool

struct_field_is_shared reports whether a resolved struct field uses shared storage.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) struct_field_type_name(struct_name string, field_name string) ?string

struct_field_type_name returns the canonical type name for a struct field.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) struct_fields_for_type(struct_name string) []StructField

struct_fields_for_type returns the fields of struct_name, with generic parameters substituted when struct_name is a concrete generic instance.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) struct_module_for_type(name string) string

struct_module_for_type returns the module that declared the named struct.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) sum_variant_type_for_pattern(sum_name string, variant_name string) ?string

fn (tc &TypeChecker) threads_condition_value() bool

threads_condition_value reports the cached $if threads condition, scanning lazily for direct TypeChecker users that do not run the regular compiler setup.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) transform_signatures_changed() bool

transform_signatures_changed reports whether a transform fork detached and added signature state that its parent must merge.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) type_cache_parse_enabled() bool

type_cache_parse_enabled reports whether parse_type memoization is enabled on this checker's type cache.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) type_cache_stats() TypeCacheStats

type_cache_stats returns cache counters accumulated by this checker.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) type_count() int

type_count reports the number of unique canonical semantic types observed by this compilation.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) type_has_implicit_str_method(name string) bool

fn (tc &TypeChecker) type_name(t Type) string

type_name lazily formats and memoizes the canonical spelling of a semantic type. Hot compiler paths should prefer this to repeated recursive Type.name construction.

fn (mut tc TypeChecker) type_text_implements_interface(actual_text string, iface_text string) bool

type_text_implements_interface reports whether a concrete type expression satisfies an interface type expression in the current checker module context.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) unfreeze_type_cache_after_forks()

unfreeze_type_cache_after_forks folds the private overlay back into the frozen base once every fork has been joined, and reattaches the base as the live cache.

fn (tc &TypeChecker) unregister_short_type_name(name string)

unregister_short_type_name removes an exact cached entry when a generic template is erased. Ambiguous entries stay conservative until the next compilation-wide index build.

pub:
	msg        string
	kind       TypeErrorKind
	node       flat.NodeId
	file       string
