Use the existing public field directly instead.
It's shorter and different than LLValue's getType() (making it easier
to discriminate DValues and LLValues for experienced LDC devs imho).
Also adds the CMake infrastructure to compile and link the D source files.
The build is partially broken:
- A few files in Phobos and druntime do not build
- MSVC build is broken because of unresolved symbols involving reals
Although they occupy 1 byte, D now apparently doesn't care about
the actual data when comparing instances for (in)equality.
Fixes runnable/xtest46.d and probably runnable/cppa.d too.
This commit fundamentally changes the way symbol emission in
LDC works: Previously, whenever a declaration was used in some
way, the compiler would check whether it actually needs to be
defined in the currently processed module, based only on the
symbol itself. This lack of contextual information proved to
be a major problem in correctly handling emission of templates
(see e.g. #454).
Now, the DtoResolve…() family of functions and similar only
ever declare the symbols, and definition is handled by doing
a single pass over Module::members for the root module. This
is the same strategy that DMD uses as well, which should
also reduce the maintainance burden down the road (which is
important as during the last few releases, there was pretty
much always a symbol emission related problem slowing us
down).
Our old approach might have been a bit better tuned w.r.t.
avoiding emission of unneeded template instances, but 2.064
will bring improvements here (DMD: FuncDeclaration::toObjFile).
Barring such issues, the change shoud also marginally improve
compile times because of declarations no longer being emitted
when they are not needed.
In the future, we should also consider refactoring the code
so that it no longer directly accesses Dsymbol::ir but uses
wrapper functions that ensure that the appropriate
DtoResolve…() function has been called.
GitHub: Fixes#454.
This is just to improve clarity, as it was rather non-obvious
what of the code also applied to classes before.
IrTypeAggr::createInitializerConstant would currently belong in
IrTypeStruct, but this will be refactored anyway.
