This is cleaner than adding into a hash manually. Additionally, it
is now possible to request that the file be parsed not as a dep,
but rather standalone, which will be useful later.
Eolian doc objects now bundle debug information necessary to
provide correct line/column numbers. It is not possible to get
this information cirectly from the text, as it's reformatted and
contains no extra whitespace or newlines beyond paragraph
separators.
Fixes T6701.
Units now form an actual tree stored in their own hash. This will
later replace all global state of Eolian, by introducing a master
unit that you will pass around.
These types are of questionable value and the API was not entirely
thought out - remove for now, and if a legitimate use is found
later, they may be readded (with a better API), but typically it
seems best to redesign the bad APIs around safe containers...
This is a new type representing a mutable string (no const).
Regular strings cannot be made mutable with @owned because
they might be hidden behind typedefs.
First steps toward explicit function pointer support in eolian.
To declare a function pointer type, use the following syntax, similar to
a regular eolian method declaration.
function FunctionName {
params {
...
}
return: Return type
}
We don't need to keep this in eo files anymore because the APIs
using them are now fully in C. This also allows removal of the
event callback builtin from Eolian.
Future is the read only side of a Promise. For now, I am not removing
Eina_Promise until everything is in place, but eventually the promise
type of eolian will be gone.
Adds two new type types, STATIC_ARRAY and TERMINATED_ARRAY. Static arrays are
only allowed as struct members right now - they translate to regular C static
arrays (allowing them elsewhere wouldn't be good, as C isn't very good at
working with the size information). Terminated arrays are basically sequences
of data terminated at the end. The base type of static arrays can be any type
that is not marked ref (explicit ref may get allowed later). The base type of
terminated arrays has the same restriction plus that it has to be either
implicitly reference type (i.e. translating to pointer in C), integer type
or a character. In case of ref types, the terminator is NULL. In case of
integer types, the terminator is a zero. In case of character types, the
terminator is also a zero (null terminator like C strings).

This implements a new builtin, stringshare, which is replaced with the right
pointer to Eina_Strinshare as necessary. This allows simplifying binding code
(it can call the proper eina APIs, deal with lifetime etc).
It also removes the extern Eina.Stringshare typedef from eina_types.eot, which
was actually incorrect and would generate invalid code in binding generators.
@feature @fix
Previously, multi-char tokens (such as strings, docs etc) always put the error
cursor to the end of the token. That was confusing, so now the cursor always
appears at the beginning of the token instead (for multiline tokens, currently
only docs, the line number is also adjusted to point to the first line of the
doc token).
