2017-10-10[vernac] Remove "Proof using" hacks from parser.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
We place `Proof_using` in the proper place [`vernac`] and we remove gross parsing hacks. The new placement should allow to use the printers and more convenient structure, and reduce strange coupling between parsing and internal representation.
2017-10-10Take Suggest Proof Using outside the kernel.Gaëtan Gilbert
Also add an output test for Suggest Proof Using. This changes the .aux output: instead of getting a key >context_used "$hyps;$suggest" where $hyps is a list of the used hypotheses and $suggest is the ;-separated suggestions (or the empty string if Suggest Proof Using is unset), there is a key >context_used "$hyps" and if Suggest Proof Using is set also a key >suggest_proof_using "$suggest" For instance instead of 112 116 context_used "B A;A B;All" we get 112 116 context_used "B A" 112 116 suggest_proof_using "A B;All"

2017-05-24[option] Remove support for non-synchronous options.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
Inspired by https://coq.inria.fr/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=5229 , which this PR solves, I propose to remove support for non-synchronous options. It seems the few uses of `optsync = false` we legacy and shouldn't have any impact. Moreover, non synchronous options may create particularly tricky situations as for instance, they won't be propagated to workers.

2017-03-21[pp] [ide] Minor cleanups in pp code.Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias
- We avoid unnecessary use of Pp -> string conversion functions. and the creation of intermediate buffers on logging. - We rename local functions that share the name with the Coq stdlib, this is usually dangerous as if the normal function is removed, code may pick up the one in the stdlib, with different semantics.
2016-08-24CLEANUP: minor readability improvementsMatej Kosik
mainly concerning referring to "Context.{Rel,Named}.get_{id,value,type}" functions. If multiple modules define a function with a same name, e.g.: Context.{Rel,Named}.get_type those calls were prefixed with a corresponding prefix to make sure that it is obvious which function is being called.

2016-05-31Feedback cleanupEmilio Jesus Gallego Arias
This patch splits pretty printing representation from IO operations. - `Pp` is kept in charge of the abstract pretty printing representation. - The `Feedback` module provides interface for doing printing IO. The patch continues work initiated for 8.5 and has the following effects: - The following functions in `Pp`: `pp`, `ppnl`, `pperr`, `pperrnl`, `pperr_flush`, `pp_flush`, `flush_all`, `msg`, `msgnl`, `msgerr`, `msgerrnl`, `message` are removed. `Feedback.msg_*` functions must be used instead. - Feedback provides different backends to handle output, currently, `stdout`, `emacs` and CoqIDE backends are provided. - Clients cannot specify flush policy anymore, thus `pp_flush` et al are gone. - `Feedback.feedback` takes an `edit_or_state_id` instead of the old mix. Lightly tested: Test-suite passes, Proof General and CoqIDE seem to work.
2016-02-09CLEANUP: Context.{Rel,Named}.Declaration.tMatej Kosik
Originally, rel-context was represented as: Context.rel_context = Names.Name.t * Constr.t option * Constr.t Now it is represented as: Context.Rel.t = LocalAssum of Names.Name.t * Constr.t | LocalDef of Names.Name.t * Constr.t * Constr.t Originally, named-context was represented as: Context.named_context = Names.Id.t * Constr.t option * Constr.t Now it is represented as: Context.Named.t = LocalAssum of Names.Id.t * Constr.t | LocalDef of Names.Id.t * Constr.t * Constr.t Motivation: (1) In "tactics/hipattern.ml4" file we define "test_strict_disjunction" function which looked like this: let test_strict_disjunction n lc = Array.for_all_i (fun i c -> match (prod_assum (snd (decompose_prod_n_assum n c))) with | [_,None,c] -> isRel c && Int.equal (destRel c) (n - i) | _ -> false) 0 lc Suppose that you do not know about rel-context and named-context. (that is the case of people who just started to read the source code) Merlin would tell you that the type of the value you are destructing by "match" is: 'a * 'b option * Constr.t (* worst-case scenario *) or Named.Name.t * Constr.t option * Constr.t (* best-case scenario (?) *) To me, this is akin to wearing an opaque veil. It is hard to figure out the meaning of the values you are looking at. In particular, it is hard to discover the connection between the value we are destructing above and the datatypes and functions defined in the "kernel/context.ml" file. In this case, the connection is there, but it is not visible (between the function above and the "Context" module). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now consider, what happens when the reader see the same function presented in the following form: let test_strict_disjunction n lc = Array.for_all_i (fun i c -> match (prod_assum (snd (decompose_prod_n_assum n c))) with | [LocalAssum (_,c)] -> isRel c && Int.equal (destRel c) (n - i) | _ -> false) 0 lc If the reader haven't seen "LocalAssum" before, (s)he can use Merlin to jump to the corresponding definition and learn more. In this case, the connection is there, and it is directly visible (between the function above and the "Context" module). (2) Also, if we already have the concepts such as: - local declaration - local assumption - local definition and we describe these notions meticulously in the Reference Manual, then it is a real pity not to reinforce the connection of the actual code with the abstract description we published.

2015-10-08Proof using: let-in policy, optional auto-clear, forward closure*Enrico Tassi
- "Proof using p*" means: use p and any section var about p. - Simplify the grammar/parser for proof using <expression>. - Section variables with a body (let-in) are pulled in automatically since they are safe to be used (add no extra quantification) - automatic clear of "unused" section variables made optional: Set Proof Using Clear Unused. since clearing section hypotheses does not "always work" (e.g. hint databases are not really cleaned) - term_typing: trigger a "suggest proof using" message also for Let theorems.

2014-01-05Proof_using: new syntax + suggestionEnrico Tassi
Proof using can be followed by: - All : all variables - Type : all variables occurring in the type - expr: - (a b .. c) : set - expr + expr : set union - expr - expr : set difference - -expr : set complement (All - expr) Exceptions: - a singleton set can be written without parentheses. This also allows the implementation of named sets sharing the same name space of section hyps ans write - bla - x : where bla is defined as (a b .. x y) elsewhere. - if expr is just a set, then parentheses can be omitted This module also implements some AI to tell the user how he could decorate "Proof" with a "using BLA" clause. Finally, one can Set Default Proof Using "str" to any string that is used whenever the "using ..." part is missing. The coding of this sucks a little since it is the parser that applies the default.
