There are two visible effects of this change:
1) If an empty argument is passed in quotes, it will be parsed as an
empty string and handled by the compiler, which will report an error
later. The specific error is not very important because it's an edge
case anyway; at the moment, "source file or directory not found:" is
reported which is no better than the "invalid flag:" error reported
by javac in the similar case
2) It's no longer possible to split an argument into several parts and
quote them separately, such as:
"-langu"ag"e-"ver'sio'n 1.2
No test added for this change in behavior since it's an even edgier
case. Note that javac also prohibits this.
#KT-27226 Fixed
Preface: Kotlin 1.3 will be able to read metadata of .class files
produced by Kotlin 1.4 (see KT-25972). Also, to simplify implementation
and to improve diagnostic messages, we're going to advance JVM metadata
version to 1.4.0 in Kotlin 1.4, and would like to keep it in sync with
the compiler version thereafter. This presents a problem: in an unlikely
event that before releasing 1.4, we find out that the metadata-reading
implementation in 1.3 was incorrect, we'd like to be able to fix the bug
in that implementation and _forbid_ 1.3 from reading metadata of 1.4.
But prior to this commit the only way to do this was to advance the
metadata version, in this case to 1.5, and that breaks the
metadata/compiler version equivalence we'd like to keep.
The solution is to add another boolean flag to the class file, called
"strict metadata version semantics", which signifies that if this class
file has metadata version 1.X, then it can only be read by the compilers
of versions 1.X and greater. This flag effectively disables the smooth
migration scenario proposed in KT-25972 (as does increasing metadata
version by 2), and will be used only in hopeless situations as in the
case described above.
Set LATEST_STABLE language version and current version of stdlib to 1.3, set IS_PRE_RELEASE
Remove "EXPERIMENTAL" from 1.3 version description in tests and gradle options
Otherwise the "outputDir" in these tests was treated as relative to the
project root, and starting from 63b4302cea, running these tests resulted
in the "whatever" directory being created in the project root
To be able to use it correctly inside an xml build file where, if the
path is not absolute, it's treated as relative to the build file path
(which is TMP_DIR in several tests of the subsequent commit)
- treat a contiguous whitespace sequence as a single argument separator,
not as several empty-string arguments separated by whitespaces
- fix infinite loop when reading unfinished quoted argument
- do not attempt to perform escape if the backslash is the last
character in the file
Previously, assert was just a regular function and its argument used to
be computed on each call (even if assertions are disabled on JVM).
This change adds support for 3 new behaviours of assert:
* always-enable (independently from -ea on JVM)
* always-disable (independently from -ea JVM)
* runtime/jvm (compile the calls like javac generates assert-operator)
* legacy (leave current eager semantics) - this already existed
Default behaviour is legacy for now.
The behavior is changed based on -Xassertions flag.
#KT-7540: Fixed
Arguments are passed in form '-XXLanguage:+LanguageFeatureName' for enabling
LanguageFeature.LanguageFeatureName, and '-XXLanguage:-LanguageFeatureName'
for disabling.
Note that they do override other settings, including 'language-version'
or extra ('-X') args.
In this mode, instead of analyzing files and generating bytecode for
them, compiler just saves imports of each file in JSON map of form
'<path to file> -> [<import1>, <import2>, ...]'
It is needed for some external tools, notably for Google3 toolchain.
This commit introduces notion of 'PerformanceManager' in CLI, suitable
for collecting performance metrics of the compiler. It:
- provides `notifyX{Started/Finished}` API, where 'X' is some
measurable event (previously there were just ad hoc manual time
measurements using System.nanoTime() and stuff)
- collects measurements, so that later they can be reported in an
appropriate way (previously measurements were reported immediately to
MessageCollector as plain strings)
- allows overriding to collect metrics, specific for just one target
platform compilation
Also, common logic of compiler performance statistics collection was
extracted from platform-compilers (K2JVMCompiler) to common classes
(CLICompiler), to allow other platform-compilers (e.g. K2JSCompiler)
re-use it.
Since we're not yet sure of the design of Experimental/UseExperimental,
we're making them "experimental" themselves in some sense, in that the
user is required to provide the magic argument
"-Xuse-experimental=kotlin.Experimental" to be allowed to use either
Experimental or UseExperimental. This is more convenient than the
previous approach of "-language-version 1.3
-Xskip-metadata-version-check" because it's simpler and does not cause
pre-release binaries to be produced

Drop Experimental.changesMayBreak, Experimental.Impact, the concept of
signature/body usage, same module exemption. Make the majority of tests
single-module because there is now no difference in the checker between
usages from the same module or from another module
- add options to disable scripting plugin and standard script definition
- move standard definition adding logic into appropriate place
- fix logic of scripting plugin loading
- add standard script definition on the environment creation to
ensure compatibility with all usages
- fix testdata
- some minor fixes
