27 /* This header declares a family of wrapper classes for tracking a
28 success/failure value, while optionally supporting propagating an
29 opt_problem * describing any failure back up the call stack.
31 For instance, at the deepest point of the callstack where the failure
34 if (!check_something ())
36 if (dump_enabled_p ())
37 dump_printf_loc (MSG_MISSED_OPTIMIZATION, vect_location,
38 "foo is unsupported.\n");
41 // [...more checks...]
46 we can capture the cause of the failure via:
48 if (!check_something ())
49 return opt_result::failure_at (stmt, "foo is unsupported");
50 // [...more checks...]
53 return opt_result::success ();
55 which effectively returns true or false, whilst recording any problem.
57 opt_result::success and opt_result::failure return opt_result values
58 which "looks like" true/false respectively, via operator bool().
59 If dump_enabled_p, then opt_result::failure also creates an opt_problem *,
60 capturing the pertinent data (here, "foo is unsupported " and "stmt").
61 If dumps are disabled, then opt_problem instances aren't
62 created, and it's equivalent to just returning a bool.
64 The opt_problem can be propagated via opt_result values back up
65 the call stack to where it makes most sense to the user.
66 For instance, rather than:
68 bool ok = try_something_that_might_fail ();
71 if (dump_enabled_p ())
72 dump_printf_loc (MSG_MISSED_OPTIMIZATION, vect_location,
77 we can replace the bool with an opt_result, so if dump_enabled_p, we
78 assume that if try_something_that_might_fail, an opt_problem * will be
79 created, and we can propagate it up the call chain:
81 opt_result ok = try_something_that_might_fail ();
84 if (dump_enabled_p ())
85 dump_printf_loc (MSG_MISSED_OPTIMIZATION, vect_location,
87 return ok; // propagating the opt_result
90 opt_result is an opt_wrapper<bool>, where opt_wrapper<T> is a base
91 class for wrapping a T, optionally propagating an opt_problem in
92 case of failure_at (when dumps are enabled). Similarly,
93 opt_pointer_wrapper<T> can be used to wrap pointer types (where non-NULL
94 signifies success, NULL signifies failure).
96 In all cases, opt_wrapper<T> acts as if the opt_problem were one of its
97 fields, but the opt_problem is actually stored in a global, so that when
98 compiled, an opt_wrapper<T> is effectively just a T, so that we're
99 still just passing e.g. a bool around; the opt_wrapper<T> classes
100 simply provide type-checking and an API to ensure that we provide
101 error-messages deep in the callstack at the places where problems
102 occur, and that we propagate them. This also avoids having
103 to manage the ownership of the opt_problem instances.
105 Using opt_result and opt_wrapper<T> documents the intent of the code
106 for the places where we represent success values, and allows the C++ type
107 system to track where the deepest points in the callstack are where we
108 need to emit the failure messages from. */

115 subclasses, such as opt_result::failure.
