Enum types are implemented as named types (with possible accompanying
typedefs as type aliases). The constants inside the enums are treated as
Go constants like in the Go toolchain.
This is a big commit that does a few things:
* It moves CGo processing into a separate package. It never really
belonged in the loader package, and certainly not now that the
loader package may be refactored into a driver package.
* It adds support for multiple CGo files (files that import package
"C") in a single package. Previously, this led to multiple
definition errors in the Go typecheck phase because certain C
symbols were defined multiple times in all the files. Now it
generates a new fake AST that defines these, to avoid multiple
definition errors.
* It improves debug info in a few edge cases that are probably not
relevant outside of bugs in cgo itself.
Only try to convert the C symbols to their Go equivalents that are
actually referenced by the Go code with C.<somesymbol>. This avoids
having to support all possible C types, which is difficult because of
oddities like `typedef void` or `__builtin_va_list`. Especially
__builtin_va_list, which varies between targets.
Every ABI has a slightly different implementation. Ideally, we would use
something like Clang TargetInfo or extract it by compiling some C code
and checking the IR, but this is a useful workaround for now.
These types (called elaborated types in C) are used as part of linked
lists, among others.
This is part an extra feature (to be compatible with CGo C.struct_
types) and part a bugfix: linked lists would result in endless recursion
leading to a stack overflow.
This makes CGo-emitted diagnostics very similar to regular errors
emitted while parsing/typechecking a package.
It's not complete, but after introducing some errors in testdata/cgo,
this is the resulting output:
# ./testdata/cgo/
testdata/cgo/main.h:18:11: error: a parameter list without types is only allowed in a function definition
testdata/cgo/main.go:5:10: note: in file included from testdata/cgo/main.go!cgo.c:2:
testdata/cgo/main.go:6:19: error: expected identifier or '('
Previously, this was the output:
/home/ayke/src/github.com/tinygo-org/tinygo/testdata/cgo/main.h:18:11: error: a parameter list without types is only allowed in a function definition
cgo-fake.c:3:19: error: expected identifier or '('
# ./testdata/cgo/
cgo: libclang cannot parse fragment
