类型系统

本文档描述 KCL 的类型系统,包括:

  • 类型规则
  • 类型检查
  • 类型转换
  • 类型推导

类型规则

基础定义

断言

SS 的所有自由变量都定义在 Γ\Gamma

ΓS\Gamma \vdash S

Γ\Gamma 是一个变量的类型声明环境(well-formed environment),如:x1:T1x_1:T_1, ..., xn:Tnx_n:T_n

SS 的断言有三种形式:

环境断言 断言表示 Γ\Gamma 是良构类型 (well-formed type)

Γ\Gamma \vdash ◇

良构类型断言 在环境 Γ\Gamma 下,natnat 是类型表达式

Γnat\Gamma \vdash nat

类型判断断言 在环境 Γ\Gamma 下,EE 具有类型 TT

ΓE:T\Gamma \vdash E: T

推理规则

表示法

ΓS1,...,ΓSnΓS\frac{\Gamma \vdash S_1, ..., \Gamma \vdash S_n}{\Gamma \vdash S}

推理规则中的 uu, vv, ww 用于表示变量,ii, jj, kk 用于表示整数,aa, bb 用于表示浮点数,ss 用于表示字符串,cc 代表常量(整数、浮点数、字符串、布尔)的字面值, ff 用于表示函数, TT, SS, UU 用于表示类型。

Γ listof(T)   Γ listof(S)Γ listof(unionof(T,S))\frac{\Gamma \vdash \ listof(T) \ \ \ \Gamma \vdash \ listof(S)}{\Gamma \vdash \ listof(unionof(T, S))}

Dict Union

Γ dictof(T1,T2)   Γ dictof(S1,S2)Γ dictof(unionof(T1,S1),unionof(T2,S2))\frac{\Gamma \vdash \ dictof(T_1, T_2) \ \ \ \Gamma \vdash \ dictof(S_1, S_2)}{\Gamma \vdash \ dictof(unionof(T_1, S_1), unionof(T_2, S_2))}

Struct Union

给定两个结构体 structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)structof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn)structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}),structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n})

定义他们的 union 类型:

structof(J1:U1,...,Jp:Un)=structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)structof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn)structof(J_{1}: U_{1}, ..., J_{p}: U_{n}) = structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}) \bigcup structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n})

例如:

structof()  structof(H1:T1,...,Hm:Tn)=structof(H1:T1,...,Hm:Tn)structof() \ \bigcup \ structof(H_{1}: T_{1}, ..., H_{m}: T_{n}) = structof(H_{1}: T_{1}, ..., H_{m}: T_{n})
structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)  structof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn)=structof(K1:T1)::(structof(K2:T2,...,Kn:Tn)  structof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn))structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}) \ \bigcup \ structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n}) = structof(K_1: T_1) :: (structof(K_{2}: T_{2}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}) \ \bigcup \ structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n}))

其中把 "::" 表示把一个对偶加入到一个结构的操作,定义如下:

structof(K1:T1)::structof()=structof(K1:T1)structof(K_{1}: T_{1}) :: structof() = structof(K_{1}: T_{1})
structof(K1:T1)::structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)=structof(K1:union_op(T1,T1),...,Kn:Tn)structof(K_{1}: T_{1}) :: structof(K_{1}: T_{1}', ..., K_n: T_{n}) = structof(K_{1}: union\_op(T_{1}, T_{1}'), ..., K_{n}: T_{n})
structof(K1:T1)::structof(K2:T2,...,Kn:Tn)=structof(K2:T2)::structof(K1:T1)::structof(K3:T3,...,Kn:Tn)structof(K_{1}: T_{1}) :: structof(K_{2}: T_{2}, ..., K_n: T_{n}) = structof(K_{2}: T_2) :: structof(K_{1}: T_1) :: structof(K_{3}: T_3, ..., K_{n}: T_{n})

基于此,两个 Struct 的 union 定义为:

Γstructof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn) Γstructof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn) structof(J1:U1,...,Jp:Un)=structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)structof(H1:S1,...,Hm:Sn)Γstructof(J1:U1,...,Jp:Un))\frac{\Gamma \vdash structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}) \ \Gamma \vdash structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n}) \ structof(J_{1}: U_{1}, ..., J_{p}: U_{n}) = structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}) \bigcup structof(H_{1}: S_{1}, ..., H_{m}: S_{n})}{\Gamma \vdash structof(J_{1}: U_{1}, ..., J_{p}: U_{n}))}

其中 union_op(T1,T2)union\_op(T_1, T_2) 表示对相同 KiK_i 的不同类型的判断操作:

  • T1T_1T2T_2 有偏序关系时, 如果 T1T2T_1 \sqsubseteq T_2 时,返回 T2T_2,否则返回 T1T_1,即取最小上界
  • T1T_1T2T_2 不存在偏序关系时,有三种可选的处理逻辑:
    • 结构体 union 失败,返回 type_error
    • 返回后者的类型,此处为 T2T_2
    • 返回类型 unionof(T1,T2)unionof(T_1, T_2)

此处需要根据实际需求选择适当的处理方式。

结构体继承可以看做一种特殊的 union,整体逻辑与 union 相似,但在 union_op(T1,T2)union\_op(T_1, T_2) 中对相同 KiK_i 的不同类型的判断操作如下:

  • T1T_1T2T_2 有偏序关系且 T1T2T_1 \sqsubseteq T_2 时,返回 T1T_1,即仅当 T1T_1T2T_2 的下界时以下界 T1T_1 为准
  • 否则返回 type_error

通过这样的继承设计可以实现分层的、自下而上逐层收缩的类型定义。

Operation

KCL 支持对结构体属性进行如 p op E 形式的操作。 即对给定结构体 A:structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)A: structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n}), 对结构体中的路径 pE 的值进行指定的操作(如 union,assign,insert 等)。

定义如下更新操作:

ΓA:structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)  Γp(K1,...,Kn) Γe:Tkk1,...,kknA{p op e}:{K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn}{p:T}\frac{{\Gamma\vdash A: structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n})}  {\Gamma\vdash p \in (K_{1}, ..., K_{n})} \ {\Gamma\vdash e:T}   k \neq k_1, ..., k \neq k_n} { A \{p \ op \ e\}:\{K_1:T_1, ..., K_n:T_n\}∪\{p:T\}}

即对路径 pp 进行操作本质上是对两个结构体的一种 union,对同名属性类型 union 时的规则根据情况而定。例如路径 pp 是一个可用作字段名的标识符 p=k1p=k_1,并且结构体 A 中字段名也是 k1k_1,它的类型为 T1T_1,并且表达式 ee 的类型也为 T1T_1 ,那么

ΓA:structof(K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn)  Γp=K1 Γe:T1kk1,...,kknA{p op e}:{K1:T1,...,Kn:Tn}\frac{{\Gamma\vdash A: structof(K_{1}: T_{1}, ..., K_{n}: T_{n})}  {\Gamma\vdash p = K_{1}} \ {\Gamma\vdash e:T_1}   k \neq k_1, ..., k \neq k_n} { A \{p \ op \ e\}:\{K_1:T_1, ..., K_n:T_n\}}

注意:

  • 此处表达式 ee 的类型 T1T_1 同原先同名属性 K1K_1 的具有相同的类型。可根据实际情况需要适当放松,如 ee 的类型 T1\sqsubseteq T_1 即可。
  • 对于多层结构体嵌套的操作,递归的使用以上规则即可。

Type X==Type Y if Type XType Y and Type Y Type XType \ X == Type \ Y \ if \ Type \ X \sqsubseteq Type \ Y \ and \ Type \ Y \sqsubseteq \ Type \ X

基础方法

  • sup(t1: T, t2: T) -> T: 根据类型偏序计算两类型 t1, t2 的最小上界。需要动态创建 union type。
  • typeEqual(t1: T, t2: T) -> bool: 比较两类型 t1, t2 是否相等。
  • typeToString(t: T) -> string: 自顶向下递归解析并转化类型成对应的字符串类型。

Sup Function

  • 暂不考虑类型参数,条件类型等特性
  • 使用一个有序集合存储 UnionType 的所有类型
  • 使用一个全局的 Map 根据 UnionType 的名称存储产生的所有 UnionType
  • 根据偏序关系计算类型之间的包含关系
// The Sup function returns the minimum supremum of all types in an array of types
func Sup(types: T[]) -> T {
typeOf(types, removeSubTypes=true)

addTypesToTypeSet(typeSet, types)

if removeSubTypes {
removeSubTypes(typeSet)

类型检查

类型检查器

类型检查器通过语法制导翻译的方式,自顶向下遍历语法树,并根据上下文有关的定型规则来判定程序构造是否为良类型程序。

类型检查器依赖类型规则,类型环境 Γ\Gamma 的信息记入符号表。对类型表达式采用抽象语法,如 listof(T)。类型检查失败时产生 type_error,并根据语法上下文产生错误信息。

基础方法

  1. isUpperBound(t1, t2): supUnify(t1, t2) == t2
  2. supUnify(t1, t2):
  • 对于基础类型,根据偏序关系计算 sup(t1, t2)
  • 对于 list、 dict、 Struct, 递归地对其中元素的类型进行 supUnify
  • 不存在偏序关系时,返回 Nothing

类型推导

基础定义

  • 在类型信息不完全的情况下类型规则推导、重建类型
  • 自底向上推导并重建数程序中的数据结构类型,如基础类型,list, dict, Struct

基础方法

  1. typeOf(expr, subst): 输入为表达式和代换规则集合,返回 expr 的类型和新的代换规则集合
  2. unifier(t1, t2, subst, expr) 用 t1=t2 尝试代换,如果代换成功(未出现且无冲突),则将 t1=t2 加入 subst 并返回 subst。否则报错已出现或有冲突。
