360: Permit renaming constructors, getters and setters r=nikomatsakis a=MihailMihov The goal is to add an option `constructor_name` to `#[salsa::input]`, `#[salsa::interned]` and `#[salsa::tracked]` that allows changing the name of the generated constructor. After that add attributes `get` and `set` to the fields which allow overriding the names of the getters and setters. In the end the following snippet should compile and work: ```rust #[salsa::interned(constructor = from_string)] struct MyInterned { #[get(text)] #[set(set_text)] #[return_ref] field: String, } impl MyInterned { pub fn new(db: &dyn Db, s: impl Display) -> MyInterned { MyInterned::from_string(db, s.to_string()) } pub fn field(self, db: &dyn Db) -> &str { self.text(db) } pub fn set_field(self, db: &mut dyn Db, id: String) { self.set_text(&mut db, id) } } ``` resolves #332 Co-authored-by: Mihail Mihov <mmihov.personal@gmail.com> |

salsa
A generic framework for on-demand, incrementalized computation.
Obligatory warning
Very much a WORK IN PROGRESS at this point. Ready for experimental use but expect frequent breaking changes.
Credits
This system is heavily inspired by adapton, glimmer, and rustc's query system. So credit goes to Eduard-Mihai Burtescu, Matthew Hammer, Yehuda Katz, and Michael Woerister.
Key idea
The key idea of salsa
is that you define your program as a set of
queries. Every query is used like function K -> V
that maps from
some key of type K
to a value of type V
. Queries come in two basic
varieties:
- Inputs: the base inputs to your system. You can change these whenever you like.
- Functions: pure functions (no side effects) that transform your inputs into other values. The results of queries is memoized to avoid recomputing them a lot. When you make changes to the inputs, we'll figure out (fairly intelligently) when we can re-use these memoized values and when we have to recompute them.
