        Default application elaborator #

        • ellipsis : Bool

          true if .. was used

        • explicit : Bool

          true if @ modifier was used

        • resultIsOutParamSupport : Bool

          If the result type of an application is the outParam of some local instance, then special support may be needed because type class resolution interacts poorly with coercions in this kind of situation. This flag enables the special support.

          The idea is quite simple, if the result type is the outParam of some local instance, we simply execute synthesizeSyntheticMVarsUsingDefault. We added this feature to make sure examples as follows are correctly elaborated.

          class GetElem (Cont : Type u) (Idx : Type v) (Elem : outParam (Type w)) where
            getElem (xs : Cont) (i : Idx) : Elem
          
          export GetElem (getElem)
          
          instance : GetElem (Array α) Nat α where
            getElem xs i := xs.get ⟨i, sorry⟩
          
          opaque f : Option BoolBool
          opaque g : BoolBool
          
          def bad (xs : Array Bool) : Bool :=
            let x := getElem xs 0
            f x && g x
          

          Without the special support, Lean fails at g x saying x has type Option Bool but is expected to have type Bool. From the user's point of view this is a bug, since let x := getElem xs 0 clearly constrains x to be Bool, but we only obtain this information after we apply the OfNat default instance for 0.

          Before converging to this solution, we have tried to create a "coercion placeholder" when resultIsOutParamSupport = true, but it did not work well in practice. For example, it failed in the example above.

        Instances For
          • fType : Lean.Expr
          • Remaining regular arguments.

          • remaining named arguments to be processed.

          • expectedType? : Option Lean.Expr
          • etaArgs : Array Lean.Expr

            When named arguments are provided and explicit arguments occurring before them are missing, the elaborator eta-expands the declaration. For example,

            def f (x y : Nat) := x + y
            #check f (y := 5)
            -- fun x => f x 5
            

            etaArgs stores the fresh free variables for implementing the eta-expansion. When .. is used, eta-expansion is disabled, and missing arguments are treated as _.

          • toSetErrorCtx : Array Lean.MVarId

            Metavariables that we need to set the error context using the application being built.

          • instMVars : Array Lean.MVarId

            Metavariables for the instance implicit arguments that have already been processed.

          • propagateExpected : Bool

            The following field is used to implement the propagateExpectedType heuristic. It is set to true true when expectedType still has to be propagated.

          • resultTypeOutParam? : Option Lean.MVarId

                                                Interaction between errToSorry and observing. #

                                                observing x does not check for synthetic sorry's, just an exception. Thus, it may think x worked when it didn't if a synthetic sorry was introduced. We decided that checking for synthetic sorrys at observing is not a good solution because it would not be clear to decide what the "main" error message for the alternative is. When the result contains a synthetic sorry, it is not clear which error message corresponds to the sorry. Moreover, while executing x, many error messages may have been logged. Recall that we need an error per alternative at mergeFailures.

                                                Thus, we decided to set errToSorry to false whenever processing choice nodes and overloaded symbols.

                                                Important: we rely on the property that after errToSorry is set to false, no elaboration function executed by x will reset it to true.
