      Break the recursivity is the Eff.node_exp representation (which fix nested iter. pbs). · 5c722d86
      Erwan Jahier authored
      In  short, the  rationale for  this change,  is that  it is  having a
      recursive node_exp is
      - useless,
      - too complicated,
      - wrong w.r.t. nesting iterator calls
      
      In long:
      
      - It is useless because, at the  Eff level, a node cannot call itself
        via one  of its  static arg (which  was where the  recursivity came
        from).
      
      - and indeed, it  is much simpler to consider that  a static arg node
        can only be ident.long that identifies a node alias.
      
        This  means of  course, that  nested iterators  have  been unnested
        before,   inventing  alias   node  names   along  the   way...  And
        polymorphism makes thing difficult once again.
      
      - But the  *big* problem  with a recursive  node_exp is that  it make
        things very  complicated to (lic)dump nested  iterator call because
        of polymorphism!   Actually, it  even makes thing  complicated when
        the iterators were themselves not nested in the source code !
      
        Some ugly  things were done in  LicDump to unnest  those calls when
        printing node_exp.   But this uglyness  have a price:  tricky code,
        and bugs! Indeed, nested iterators calls were wong for example when
        using  the --inline-iterator  mode (but  i would  not  be surprised
        that is wrong in other cases...).
      
      Hence,  LicDump  is  simpler,  but  of course  LazyCompiler  is  more
      complicated.  But  this  is  reasonable:  a  pretty-printer  is  not
      supposed to be complicated.

      Avoid the generation of polymorphic type variables when iterating on · 8d8dcbd0

      polymorphic operators.
      
      For instance, when LicDumping expression such as
      
          map<<map<<+,4>>,5>>
      
      an  alias  node was  created  for  "map<<+,4>>"  (to unnest  iterator
      calls). Fut this node is intrically overloaded (polymorphic). In this
      change, we  look at  the type this  innr call  is used to  generate a
      specialised (mono-morphic) version of the node alias.
      
      Note that we currently still generate type variable when users write
      
           node mymap = map<<+,4>>;

      Unnest array iterator calls by modifying the Lic printer. · 65c62005
      Erwan Jahier authored
      The  idea  is  the  following:  each  time  a  nested  iterator  call
      (map<<map<<n,3>>,4>>) is  encountered, we  create a fresh  alias name
      (create_alias_name) ad we  add it in the node_alias_tbl.   At the end
      of the  compilation, LicDump.dump_node_alias is  called, which prints
      the definition of those node aliases.
      
      For example, the expression  "map<<map<<n,3>>,4>>" is printed like this:
      
          map<<_node_alias1, 4>>
      
      and later, the node alias is defined:
      
          node _node_alias1(x:int) returns(y:int); let y = map<<n,3>>(x); tel;

      Use type_eff_ext everywhere I was using type_eff (and rename · 00c67618
      Erwan Jahier authored
      type_eff_ext into type_eff btw). The  rationale is to be able to type
      alias           on           polymorphic          nodes           (cf
      test/should_fail/semantics/bad_call03.lus,  that now  have  a correct
      error msg).  It also makes  to code more compact (no more translation
      from one  to the  other), and more  general (type_eff_ext  being more
      general than type_eff).  User polymorphic nodes should be easy now.
      
      move all the code in parsey.mly into parserUtil.ml (ease the debug).
