2018-09-24[engine] Remove and deprecate `nf_enter` et al.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
After the introduction of `EConstr`, "normalization" has become unnecessary, we thus deprecate the `nf_*` family of functions. Test-suite and CI pass after the fix for #8513.
2018-07-07Introduce a Pcoq.Entry module for functions that ought to be exported.Pierre-Marie Pédrot
We deprecate the corresponding functions in Pcoq.Gram. The motivation is that the Gram module is used as an argument to Camlp5 functors, so that it is not stable by extension. Enforcing that its type is literally the one Camlp5 expects ensures robustness to extension statically. Some really internal functions have been bluntly removed. It is unlikely that they are used by external plugins.

2018-06-27Swapping Context and Constr: defining declarations on constr in Constr.Hugo Herbelin
This shall eventually allow to use contexts of declarations in the definition of the "Case" constructor. Basically, this means that Constr now includes Context and that the "t" types of Context which were specialized on constr are not defined in Constr (unfortunately using a heavy boilerplate).
2018-06-18Remove reference name type.Maxime Dénès
reference was defined as Ident or Qualid, but the qualid type already permits empty paths. So we had effectively two representations for unqualified names, that were not seen as equal by eq_reference. We remove the reference type and replace its uses by qualid.

2018-05-31[api] Move `Constrexpr` to the `interp` module.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
Continuing the interface cleanup we place `Constrexpr` in the internalization module, which is the one that eliminates it. This slims down `pretyping` considerably, including removing the `Univdecls` module which existed only due to bad dependency ordering in the first place. Thanks to @ Skyskimmer we also remove a duplicate `univ_decl` definition among `Misctypes` and `UState`. This is mostly a proof of concept yet as it depends on quite a few patches of the tree. For sure some tweaks will be necessary, but it should be good for review now. IMO the tree is now in a state where we can could easy eliminate more than 10 modules without any impact, IMHO this is a net saving API-wise and would help people to understand the structure of the code better.
2018-05-27[api] Make `vernac/` self-contained.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
We make the vernacular implementation self-contained in the `vernac/` directory. To this extent we relocate the parser, printer, and AST to the `vernac/` directory, and move a couple of hint-related types to `Hints`, where they do indeed belong. IMO this makes the code easier to understand, and provides a better modularity of the codebase as now all things under `tactics` have 0 knowledge about vernaculars. The vernacular extension machinery has also been moved to `vernac/`, this will help when #6171 [proof state cleanup] is completed along with a stronger typing for vernacular interpretation that can distinguish different types of effects vernacular commands can perform. This PR introduces some very minor source-level incompatibilities due to a different module layering [thus deprecating is not possible]. Impact should be relatively minor.

2018-05-08[api] Move universe syntax to `Glob_term`Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
We move syntax for universes from `Misctypes` to `Glob_term`. There is basically no reason that this type is there instead of the proper file, as witnessed by the diff. Unfortunately the change is not compatible due to moving a type to a higher level in the hierarchy, but we expect few problems. This change plus the related PR (#6515) moving universe declaration to their proper place make `Misctypes` into basically an empty file save for introduction patterns.
2018-05-04[api] Rename `global_reference` to `GlobRef.t` to follow kernel style.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
In #6092, `global_reference` was moved to `kernel`. It makes sense to go further and use the current kernel style for names. This has a good effect on the dependency graph, as some core modules don't depend on library anymore. A question about providing equality for the GloRef module remains, as there are two different notions of equality for constants. In that sense, `KerPair` seems suspicious and at some point it should be looked at.
2018-04-15[doc] [engine] Document `abort_on_undefined_evars`.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
2018-04-13Evar maps contain econstrs.Gaëtan Gilbert
We bootstrap the circular evar_map <-> econstr dependency by moving the internal EConstr.API module to Evd.MiniEConstr. Then we make the Evd functions use econstr.
2018-02-22[ast] Improve precision of Ast location recognition in serialization.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
We follow the suggestions in #402 and turn uses of `Loc.located` in `vernac` into `CAst.t`. The impact should be low as this change mostly affects top-level vernaculars. With this change, we are even closer to automatically map a text document to its AST in a programmatic way.
2018-02-12[engine] Remove ghost parameter from `Proofview.Goal.t`Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
In current code, `Proofview.Goal.t` uses a phantom type to indicate whether the goal was properly substituted wrt current `evar_map` or not. After the introduction of `EConstr`, this distinction should have become unnecessary, thus we remove the phantom parameter from `'a Proofview.Goal.t`. This may introduce some minor incompatibilities at the typing level. Code-wise, things should remain the same. We thus deprecate `assume`. In a next commit, we will remove normalization as much as possible from the code.
2018-02-05[stm] [toplevel] Make loadpath a parameter of the document.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
We allow to provide a Coq load path at document creation time. This is natural as the document naming process is sensible to a particular load path, thus clarifying this API point. The changes are minimal, as #6663 did most of the work here. The only point of interest is that we have split the initial load path into two components: - a ML-only load path that is used to locate "plugable" toplevels. - the normal loadpath that includes `theories` and `user-contrib`, command line options, etc...
