Lean.Elab.Term

Saved context for postponed terms and tactics to be executed.

Instances For

    We use synthetic metavariables as placeholders for pending elaboration steps.

    Instances For

      We can optionally associate an error context with a metavariable (see MVarErrorInfo). We have three different kinds of error context.

      Instances For

        We can optionally associate an error context with metavariables.

        Instances For

          Nested let rec expressions are eagerly lifted by the elaborator. We store the information necessary for performing the lifting here.

          Instances For

            State of the TermElabM monad.

            Instances For

              State of the TacticM monad.

              Instances For

                Snapshots are used to implement the save tactic. This tactic caches the state of the system, and allows us to "replay" expensive proofs efficiently. This is only relevant implementing the LSP server.

                Instances For

                  Key for the cache used to implement the save tactic.

                  Instances For
                    • declName? : Option Lake.Name
                    • auxDeclToFullName : Lean.FVarIdMap Lake.Name

                      Map .auxDecl local declarations used to encode recursive declarations to their full-names.

                    • mayPostpone : Bool

                      When mayPostpone == true, an elaboration function may interrupt its execution by throwing Exception.postpone. The function elabTerm catches this exception and creates fresh synthetic metavariable ?m, stores ?m in the list of pending synthetic metavariables, and returns ?m.

                    • errToSorry : Bool

                      When errToSorry is set to true, the method elabTerm catches exceptions and converts them into synthetic sorrys. The implementation of choice nodes and overloaded symbols rely on the fact that when errToSorry is set to false for an elaboration function F, then errToSorry remains false for all elaboration functions invoked by F. That is, it is safe to transition errToSorry from true to false, but we must not set errToSorry to true when it is currently set to false.

                    • autoBoundImplicit : Bool

                      When autoBoundImplicit is set to true, instead of producing an "unknown identifier" error for unbound variables, we generate an internal exception. This exception is caught at elabBinders and elabTypeWithUnboldImplicit. Both methods add implicit declarations for the unbound variable and try again.

                    • autoBoundImplicits : Lean.PArray Lean.Expr
                    • autoBoundImplicitForbidden : Lake.NameBool

                      A name n is only eligible to be an auto implicit name if autoBoundImplicitForbidden n = false. We use this predicate to disallow f to be considered an auto implicit name in a definition such as

                      def f : f → Bool := fun _ => true
                      
                    • sectionVars : Lake.NameMap Lake.Name

                      Map from user name to internal unique name

                    • sectionFVars : Lake.NameMap Lean.Expr

                      Map from internal name to fvar

                    • implicitLambda : Bool

                      Enable/disable implicit lambdas feature.

                    • isNoncomputableSection : Bool

                      Noncomputable sections automatically add the noncomputable modifier to any declaration we cannot generate code for.

                    • ignoreTCFailures : Bool

                      When true we skip TC failures. We use this option when processing patterns.

                    • inPattern : Bool

                      true when elaborating patterns. It affects how we elaborate named holes.

                    • Cache for the save tactic. It is only some in the LSP server.

                    • saveRecAppSyntax : Bool

                      If true, we store in the Expr the Syntax for recursive applications (i.e., applications of free variables tagged with isAuxDecl). We store the Syntax using mkRecAppWithSyntax. We use the Syntax object to produce better error messages at Structural.lean and WF.lean.

                    • holesAsSyntheticOpaque : Bool

                      If holesAsSyntheticOpaque is true, then we mark metavariables associated with _s as synthethicOpaque if they do not occur in patterns. This option is useful when elaborating terms in tactics such as refine' where we want holes there to become new goals. See issue #1681, we have `refine' (fun x => _)

                              Execute x, save resulting expression and new state. We remove any Info created by x. The info nodes are committed when we execute applyResult. We use observing to implement overloaded notation and decls. We want to save Info nodes for the chosen alternative.

                              Instances For

                                Apply the result/exception and state captured with observing. We use this method to implement overloaded notation and symbols.

                                Instances For

                                  Execute x, but keep state modifications only if x did not postpone. This method is useful to implement elaboration functions that cannot decide whether they need to postpone or not without updating the state.

                                  Instances For

                                    Return the universe level names explicitly provided by the user.

                                      Given a free variable fvar, return its declaration. This function panics if fvar is not a free variable.

                                      Instances For

                                        Execute x but discard changes performed at Term.State and Meta.State. Recall that the Environment and InfoState are at Core.State. Thus, any updates to it will be preserved. This method is useful for performing computations where all metavariable must be resolved or discarded. The InfoTrees are not discarded, however, and wrapped in InfoTree.Context to store their metavariable context.

                                        Instances For

                                          Execute x without storing Syntax for recursive applications. See saveRecAppSyntax field at Context.

                                            Auxiliary datatype for presenting a Lean lvalue modifier. We represent an unelaborated lvalue as a Syntax (or Expr) and List LVal. Example: a.foo.1 is represented as the Syntax a and the list [LVal.fieldName "foo", LVal.fieldIdx 1].

This kind of error is thrown, for example, at Match.lean where elaboration cannot continue if there are metavariables in patterns. We only want to log it if we haven't logged any errors so far.

This method assumes the local context and local instances of instMVar coincide with the current local context and local instances. Return true if the instance was synthesized successfully, and false if the instance contains unassigned metavariables that are blocking the type class resolution procedure. Throw an exception if resolution or assignment irrevocably fails.

It extracts the elaboration methods from the environment using the node kind. Recall that the environment has a mapping from SyntaxNodeKind to TermElab methods. It creates a fresh macro scope for executing the elaboration method. All unlogged trace messages produced by the elaboration method are logged using the position information at stx. If the elaboration method throws an Exception.error and errToSorry == true, the error is logged and a synthetic sorry expression is returned. If the elaboration throws Exception.postpone and catchExPostpone == true, a new synthetic metavariable of kind SyntheticMVarKind.postponed is created, registered, and returned. The option catchExPostpone == false is used to implement resumeElabTerm to prevent the creation of another synthetic metavariable when resuming the elaboration.

                                                                                                                                            If implicitLambda == false, then disable implicit lambdas feature for the given syntax, but not for its subterms. We use this flag to implement, for example, the @ modifier. If Context.implicitLambda == false, then this parameter has no effect.

The type type is modified during the process if type depends on xs. We use this method to simplify the conversion of code using autoBoundImplicitsOld to autoBoundImplicits.
