8 @@@@@@@ Improve documentation: distinguish fields that are
9 set by the frontend and contain knowledge specified by the source
10 program from fields containing information derived by analysis/optimization
14 ** type.h: datastructures to hold type information.
16 ** This module supplies datastructures to represent all types
17 ** known in the compiled program. This includes types specified
18 ** in the program as well as types defined by the language. In the
19 ** view of the intermediate representation there is no difference
20 ** between these types.
21 ** Types are different from the modes defined in irmode: Types are
22 ** on the level of the programming language, modes at the level of
23 ** the target processor.
26 ** General datastructure
27 ** =====================
29 ** Firm distinguishes several different type constructs. These are
30 ** implemented as structs. A union of the individual structs constructs
31 ** the firm node "type".
33 ** All type constructs have the following fields:
35 ** kind A firm_kind tag containing k_type_class. This is useful
36 ** for dynamically checking the sort of a type. Automatically
39 ** name An identifier specifying the type name. Set by the frontend.
41 ** visit A counter for walks of the type information.
44 ** General functionality
45 ** =====================
47 ** is_type(t) Returns true if t is a type node, else false.
53 ** Type_class represents class types. A list of fields and
54 ** methods is associated with a class. Further a class can
55 ** inherit from and bequest to other classes.
60 ** **member All entities belonging to this class. This are methodes
61 ** which have type_method or fields that can have any of the
62 ** following types: k_type_class, k_type_strct, k_type_union,
63 ** k_type_array, k_type_enumeration, k_type_pointer, k_type_primitive.
65 ** **subtypes A list of direct subclasses.
67 ** **supertypes A list of direct superclasses.
73 ** Type_strct represents aggregate types that consist of a list
79 ** **member All entities belonging to this class. This are the fields
80 ** that can have any of the following types: k_type_class,
81 ** k_type_strct, k_type_union, k_type_array, k_type_enumeration,
82 ** k_type_pointer, k_type_primitive.
87 ** Type_method represents method, function and procedure types.
92 ** arity Number of parameters to the procedure. @@@ better n_params
93 ** A procedure in FIRM has only call by value parameters.
95 ** **param_type A list with the types of parameters. This list is ordered.
96 ** The nth type in this list corresponds to the nth element
97 ** in the parameter tuple that is a result of the start node.
98 ** (See ircons.h for more information.)
100 ** n_res The number of results of the method. In general, procedures
101 ** have zero results, functions one.
103 ** **res_type A list with the types of parameters. This list is ordered.
104 ** The nth type in this list corresponds to the nth input to
105 ** Return nodes. (See ircons.h for more information.)
111 ** Type_union represents union types.
116 ** **unioned_type A list of unioned types.
122 ** Type_array represents rectangular multi dimensional arrays.
127 ** n_dimensions Number of array dimensions.
129 ** *lower_bound Lower bounds of dimensions. Mostly all 0.
131 ** *upper_bound Upper bounds or dimensions.
133 ** *element_type The type of the array elements.
139 ** Enumeration types. These need not necessarily be represented explicitly
140 ** by Firm types, as the frontend can lower them to integer constants as
141 ** well. For debugging purposes or similar tasks this information is useful.
146 ** **enum The target values representing the constants used to
147 ** represent individual enumerations.
149 ** **enum_name Idents containing the source program name of the enumeration
160 ** *mode The mode used to implement a pointer. @@@ So far this field
161 ** is constant and set to mode_P. Maybe we will move this
162 ** to a global constant (irprog), or are there processors
163 ** that require a set of different pointer modes?
165 ** *points_to The type of the entity this pointer points to.
170 ** Primitive types are types that represent indivisible data values that
171 ** map directly to modes.
176 ** mode The mode to be used for this type.
