* create separate nodes for Objective-C in tloadvmtaddrnode.pass_1
instead of implicitly relying on the fact that the Objective-C
ISA field is at the same offset as the VMT of Object-Pascal
classes
o translate the resulting loads of ISA field into direct pointer
accesses, so that even on non-fragile ABI platforms we don't
go via an indirection (like clang/gcc)
git-svn-id: trunk@30947 -
o blocks are implemented as a variation of procedure variables
o declaration of a block variable: "test: procedure(c: char) is block;"
(C equivalent: (void)(^test)(char c) )
o the compiler automatically converts procedures/functions whose address
is passed to a block parameter or assigned to a block variable into
a "block". This consists of
1) generating a block descriptor (containing the size of the "block
literal" (see below) and the signature of the invocation function
encoded as an Objective-C selector)
2) generating a wrapper function around the original funcion (with C
calling convention), that has an extra first hidden parameter
(marked as vo_is_parentfp in the compiler) whose type is a pointer
to the describing "block literal"
3) generating the "block literal", which contains a pointer to an
external variable indicating whether this block captures context or
not, some flags (see compiler/blockutl.get_block_literal_flags for
info), a pointer to the wrapper function and a pointer to the
descriptor. In the future, it will also contain captured variables.
o right now, only global procedures/functions can be converted to blocks
(because they don't require state capturing). The next steps are (Object
Pascal) methods (not Objective-C methods, because Objective-C method
procvars don't exist) and finally nested functions
o on Mac OS X, the functionality will only work on Mac OS X 10.7 and later,
because we have to use the so-called "ABI.2010.3.16" to ensure that
our blocks aren't called as variadic functions by the runtime (which
came out after the Mac OS X 10.6 release)
o while the currently implemented functionality does not require any
library support at all, there's no use enabling it on other platforms
because unless it has been confirmed to work with a blocks runtime,
there's no point in using blocks (they're just somewhat bulky procvars
right now). Enabling it on other platforms (in combination with the
GNUStep Objective-C run time), should simply be a matter of adding
the right {$linklib xxx} statement to rtl/inc/blockrtl.pp file, adding
that file to Makefile.fpc for that platform and adding that platform
to the compiler/systems.systems_blocks_supported set

for inherited calls (that is only required when not using them for
dispatch purposes, and calling an inherited method is obviously
a dispatch situation)
git-svn-id: trunk@20664 -
self parameter for invoking inherited method calls (if you are in a
category method or a method of a child class, the extended or parent
class must have already been loaded by the run time, so we can
directly load the ISA pointer rather than detouring via the "class"
method)

be used outside the code generator
* renamed tabstractprocdef.requiredargarea into callerargareasize,
and also added calleeargareasize field; added init_paraloc_info(side)
method to init the parameter locations and init those size fields and
replaced all "if not procdef.has_paraloc_info then ..." blocks with
procdef.init_paraloc_info(callersize)"
* moved detection of stack tainting parameters from psub to
symdef/tabstractprocdef
+ added tcallparanode.contains_stack_tainting_call(), which detects
whether a parameter contains a call that makes use of stack paramters
* record for each parameter whether or not any following parameter
contains a call with stack parameters; if not, in case the current
parameter itself is a stack parameter immediately place it in its
final location also for use_fixed_stack platforms rather than
first putting it in a temporary location (part of mantis #17442)
* on use_fixed_stack platforms, always first evaluate parameters
containing a stack tainting call, since those force any preceding
stack parameters of the current call to be stored in a temp location
and copied to the final location afterwards
git-svn-id: trunk@16050 -
Objective-C methods or which are fields of Objective-C classes (since they
are basically opaque to the Objective-C runtime) + fixed tobjc11 so it
expects classes to be encoded as opaque types
* give a proper error message when using illegal field/parameter types in
Objective-C classes/methods instead of an internal error (only checked
during rtti generation rather than during parsing, because during parsing
some types may still be forwarddefs)
* split objcutil in objcdef and objcutil, with objcdef depending only on
the symtable so it can be used in symdef
git-svn-id: trunk@14838 -
load it inline. This should be safe even on the non-fragile ABI, because
the isa and superclass fields are expected at fixed offsets by the runtime
(and gcc and clang also use direct memory accesses in this case)
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13784 -
the same as for exporting functions/procedures and variables: add the name
of the class to the "exports" section of the library. By default, classes
are only visible inside a shared library.
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13765 -
* the objc unit links against the Foundation instead of against the Cocoa
framework, and inludes an interface to either the fragile or non-fragile
obj-c run time depending on the target platform
+ support for the non-fragile Objective-C runtime/ABI, as used on Mac OS X
for ARM (iPhone) 64 bit (PowerPC/64, x86_64) -- all these targets now
are now also supported for the objectivec1 modeswitch
+ support for private_extern symbol bindings, required for the above
* mark objcclasses that are declared in the implementation section of a
unit as "hidden" (not sure what the effect is, since the Objective-C
runtime does not seem to do anything with this flag)
* enabled all obj-c tests for the newly supported platforms
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13763 -
from the def)
+ added (disabled) code to correctly calculate the parameter offsets for
ppc, see comments why it's not activated
git-svn-id: branches/objc@13619 -
o support for declaring external Objective-C classes (see
rtl/inc/objcbase.pas), including derived classes
o support for converting methods of objcclasses into selectors
(see tests/test/tobjc1.pp)
o support for loading from/storing to fields of objcclasses
o support for calling Objective-C methods using regular
Object Pascal syntax (see tests/test/tobjc1.pp)
o some things that are known to be not yet working:
o automatic conversion from ID to objcclasses and back
o declaring and implementing new objcclasses/methods in Pascal code
o debug information (objcclasses are currently plain pointers
as far as the debugger knows)
