    102102\CFA language, developed by the Programming Language Group at the University of Waterloo, has a long history, with the initial language design in 1992 by Glen Ditchfield~\cite{Ditchfield92} and the first proof-of-concept compiler built in 2003 by Richard Bilson~\cite{Bilson03}. Many new features have been added to the language over time, but the core of \CFA's type-system --- parametric functions introduced by the @forall@ clause (hence the name of the language) providing parametric overloading --- remains mostly unchanged.
    103103
    104 The current \CFA reference compiler, @cfa-cc@, is designed using the visitor pattern~\cite{vistorpattern} over an abstract syntax tree (AST), where multiple passes over the AST modify it for subsequent passes. @cfa-cc@ still includes many parts taken directly from the original Bilson implementation, which served as the starting point for this enhancement work to the type system. Unfortunately, the prior implementation did not provide the efficiency required for the language to be practical: a \CFA source file of approximately 1000 lines of code can take a multiple minutes to compile. The cause of the problem is that the old compiler used inefficient data structures and algorithms for expression resolution, which involved significant copying and redundant work.

    106106This report presents a series of optimizations to the performance-critical parts of the resolver, with a major rework of the compiler data-structures using a functional-programming approach to reduce memory complexity. The improvements were suggested by running the compiler builds with a performance profiler against the \CFA standard-library source-code and a test suite to find the most underperforming components in the compiler algorithm.

    124 The resolver algorithm, designed for overload resolution, uses a significant amount of reused, and hence copying, for the intermediate representations, especially in the following two places:

    301301forall( dtype T | sized( T ) )
    302302T * malloc( void ) { return (T *)malloc( sizeof(T) ); } // call C malloc
    303 int * i = malloc();  // type deduced from left-hand size $\Rightarrow$ no size argument or return cast
     303int * i = malloc();  // type deduced from left-hand size $\(\Rightarrow\)$ no size argument or return cast
    304304\end{cfa}
    305305An unbound return-type is problematic in resolver complexity because a single match of a function call with an unbound return type may create multiple candidates. In the worst case, consider a function declared that returns any @otype@ (defined \VPageref{otype}):

    146 \CFA{}\index{cforall@\CFA}\footnote{Pronounced ``\Index*{C-for-all}'', and written \CFA, CFA, or \CFL.} is a modern general-purpose programming-language, designed as an evolutionary step forward for the C programming language.
     149\CFA{}\index{cforall@\CFA}\footnote{Pronounced ``\Index*{C-for-all}'', and written \CFA, CFA, or \CFL.} is a modern general-purpose concurrent programming-language, designed as an evolutionary step forward for the C programming language.
    147150The syntax of \CFA builds from C and should look immediately familiar to C/\Index*[C++]{\CC{}} programmers.
    148151% Any language feature that is not described here can be assumed to be using the standard \Celeven syntax.
    149 \CFA adds many modern programming-language features that directly lead to increased \emph{\Index{safety}} and \emph{\Index{productivity}}, while maintaining interoperability with existing C programs and achieving similar performance.
     152\CFA adds many modern features that directly lead to increased \emph{\Index{safety}} and \emph{\Index{productivity}}, while maintaining interoperability with existing C programs and achieving similar performance.
    150153Like C, \CFA is a statically typed, procedural (non-\Index{object-oriented}) language with a low-overhead runtime, meaning there is no global \Index{garbage-collection}, but \Index{regional garbage-collection}\index{garbage-collection!regional} is possible.
    151154The primary new features include polymorphic routines and types, exceptions, concurrency, and modules.
     
    157160instead, a programmer evolves a legacy program into \CFA by incrementally incorporating \CFA features.
    158161As well, new programs can be written in \CFA using a combination of C and \CFA features.
     162In many ways, \CFA is to C as \Index{Scala}~\cite{Scala} is to Java, providing a vehicle for new typing and control-flow capabilities on top of a highly popular programming language allowing immediate dissemination.
    159163
    160164\Index*[C++]{\CC{}}~\cite{c++:v1} had a similar goal 30 years ago, allowing object-oriented programming to be incrementally added to C.
     
    165169For example, the following programs compare the C, \CFA, and \CC I/O mechanisms, where the programs output the same result.

    212 The C programming language is a foundational technology for modern computing with millions of lines of code implementing everything from hobby projects to commercial operating-systems.
     216The C programming language is a foundational technology for modern computing with billions of lines of code implementing everything from hobby projects to commercial operating-systems.
    213217This installation base and the programmers producing it represent a massive software-engineering investment spanning decades and likely to continue for decades more.
    214218Even with all its problems, C continues to be popular because it allows writing software at virtually any level in a computer system without restriction.
    215 For system programming, where direct access to hardware, storage management, and real-time issues are a requirement, C is usually the only language of choice.
    216 The TIOBE index~\cite{TIOBE} for February 2020 ranks the top six most \emph{popular} programming languages as \Index*{Java} 17.4\%, C 16.8\%, Python 9.3\%, \Index*[C++]{\CC{}} 6.2\%, \Csharp 5.9\%, Visual Basic 5.9\% = 61.5\%, where the next 50 languages are less than 2\% each, with a long tail.

    232236As stated, the goal of the \CFA project is to engineer modern language-features into C in an evolutionary rather than revolutionary way.
    233237\CC~\cite{C++14,C++} is an example of a similar project;
    234 however, it largely extended the C language, and did not address most of C's existing problems.\footnote{%
     238however, it largely extended the C language, and did not address many of C's existing problems.\footnote{%
    235239Two important existing problems addressed were changing the type of character literals from ©int© to ©char© and enumerator from ©int© to the type of its enumerators.}
    236240\Index*{Fortran}~\cite{Fortran08}, \Index*{Ada}~\cite{Ada12}, and \Index*{Cobol}~\cite{Cobol14} are examples of programming languages that took an evolutionary approach, where modern language-features (\eg objects, concurrency) are added and problems fixed within the framework of the existing language.
     
    241245
    242246The result of this project is a language that is largely backwards compatible with \Index*[C11]{\Celeven{}}~\cite{C11}, but fixes many of the well known C problems while adding modern language-features.
    243 To achieve these goals required a significant engineering exercise, where we had to ``think inside the existing C box''.
    244 Without these significant extension to C, it is unable to cope with the needs of modern programming problems and programmers;
    245 as a result, it will fade into disuse.
    246 Considering the large body of existing C code and programmers, there is significant impetus to ensure C is transformed into a modern programming language.

     248Considering the large body of existing C code and programmers, there is significant impetus to ensure C is transformed into a modern language.
    247249While \Index*[C11]{\Celeven{}} made a few simple extensions to the language, nothing was added to address existing problems in the language or to augment the language with modern language-features.
    248250While some may argue that modern language-features may make C complex and inefficient, it is clear a language without modern capabilities is insufficient for the advanced programming problems existing today.
     
    251253\section{History}
    252254
    253 The \CFA project started with \Index*{Dave Till}\index{Till, Dave}'s \Index*{K-W C}~\cite{Buhr94a,Till89}, which extended C with new declaration syntax, multiple return values from routines, and advanced assignment capabilities using the notion of tuples.
    254 (See~\cite{Werther96} for similar work in \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}.)
     255The \CFA project started with \Index*{Dave Till}\index{Till, Dave}'s \Index*{K-W C}~\cite{Buhr94a,Till89}, which extended C with new declaration syntax, multiple return values from routines, and advanced assignment capabilities using the notion of tuples \see{\cite{Werther96} for similar work in \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}}.
    255256The first \CFA implementation of these extensions was by \Index*{Rodolfo Esteves}\index{Esteves, Rodolfo}~\cite{Esteves04}.
    256257
    257258The signature feature of \CFA is \emph{\Index{overload}able} \Index{parametric-polymorphic} functions~\cite{forceone:impl,Cormack90,Duggan96} with functions generalized using a ©forall© clause (giving the language its name):
    258259\begin{cfa}
    259 ®forall( otype T )® T identity( T val ) { return val; }
    260 int forty_two = identity( 42 ); §\C{// T is bound to int, forty\_two == 42}§
     260@forall( otype T )@ T identity( T val ) { return val; }
     261int forty_two = identity( 42 ); $\C{// T is bound to int, forty\_two == 42}$
    261262\end{cfa}
    262263% extending the C type system with parametric polymorphism and overloading, as opposed to the \Index*[C++]{\CC{}} approach of object-oriented extensions.
    263264\CFA{}\hspace{1pt}'s polymorphism was originally formalized by \Index*{Glen Ditchfield}\index{Ditchfield, Glen}~\cite{Ditchfield92}, and first implemented by \Index*{Richard Bilson}\index{Bilson, Richard}~\cite{Bilson03}.
    264265However, at that time, there was little interesting in extending C, so work did not continue.
    265 As the saying goes, ``\Index*{What goes around, comes around.}'', and there is now renewed interest in the C programming language because of legacy code-bases, so the \CFA project has been restarted.
     266As the saying goes, ``\Index*{What goes around, comes around.}'', and there is now renewed interest in the C programming language because of the legacy code-base, so the \CFA project was restarted in 2015.
    266267
    267268
     
    273274This feature allows \CFA programmers to take advantage of the existing panoply of C libraries to access thousands of external software features.
    274275Language developers often state that adequate \Index{library support} takes more work than designing and implementing the language itself.
    275 Fortunately, \CFA, like \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}, starts with immediate access to all exiting C libraries, and in many cases, can easily wrap library routines with simpler and safer interfaces, at very low cost.
     276Fortunately, \CFA, like \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}, starts with immediate access to all exiting C libraries, and in many cases, can easily wrap library routines with simpler and safer interfaces, at zero or very low cost.
    276277Hence, \CFA begins by leveraging the large repository of C libraries, and than allows programmers to incrementally augment their C programs with modern \Index{backward-compatible} features.
    277278

    287288double key = 5.0, vals[10] = { /* 10 sorted floating values */ };
    288 double * val = (double *)bsearch( &key, vals, 10, sizeof(vals[0]), comp ); §\C{// search sorted array}§
     289double * val = (double *)bsearch( &key, vals, 10, sizeof(vals[0]), comp ); $\C{// search sorted array}$
    289290\end{cfa}
    290291which can be augmented simply with a polymorphic, type-safe, \CFA-overloaded wrappers:
     
    295296
    296297forall( otype T | { int ?<?( T, T ); } ) unsigned int bsearch( T key, const T * arr, size_t size ) {
    297         T * result = bsearch( key, arr, size ); §\C{// call first version}§
    298         return result ? result - arr : size; } §\C{// pointer subtraction includes sizeof(T)}§
    299 
    300 double * val = bsearch( 5.0, vals, 10 ); §\C{// selection based on return type}§
     298        T * result = bsearch( key, arr, size ); $\C{// call first version}$
     299        return result ? result - arr : size; } $\C{// pointer subtraction includes sizeof(T)}$
     300
     301double * val = bsearch( 5.0, vals, 10 ); $\C{// selection based on return type}$
    301302int posn = bsearch( 5.0, vals, 10 );
    302303\end{cfa}
     
    310311\begin{cfa}
    311312forall( dtype T | sized(T) ) T * malloc( void ) { return (T *)malloc( sizeof(T) ); }
    312 int * ip = malloc(); §\C{// select type and size from left-hand side}§
     313int * ip = malloc(); $\C{// select type and size from left-hand side}$
    313314double * dp = malloc();
    314315struct S {...} * sp = malloc();
     
    319320However, it is necessary to differentiate between C and \CFA code because of name \Index{overload}ing, as for \CC.
    320321For example, the C math-library provides the following routines for computing the absolute value of the basic types: ©abs©, ©labs©, ©llabs©, ©fabs©, ©fabsf©, ©fabsl©, ©cabsf©, ©cabs©, and ©cabsl©.
    321 Whereas, \CFA wraps each of these routines into ones with the overloaded name ©abs©:
    322 \begin{cfa}
    323 char ®abs®( char );
    324 extern "C" { int ®abs®( int ); } §\C{// use default C routine for int}§
    325 long int ®abs®( long int );
    326 long long int ®abs®( long long int );
    327 float ®abs®( float );
    328 double ®abs®( double );
    329 long double ®abs®( long double );
    330 float _Complex ®abs®( float _Complex );
    331 double _Complex ®abs®( double _Complex );
    332 long double _Complex ®abs®( long double _Complex );
    333 \end{cfa}
    334 The problem is the name clash between the library routine ©abs© and the \CFA names ©abs©.
    335 Hence, names appearing in an ©extern "C"© block have \newterm*{C linkage}.
    336 Then overloading polymorphism uses a mechanism called \newterm{name mangling}\index{mangling!name} to create unique names that are different from C names, which are not mangled.
    337 Hence, there is the same need, as in \CC, to know if a name is a C or \CFA name, so it can be correctly formed.
    338 There is no way around this problem, other than C's approach of creating unique names for each pairing of operation and types.
    339 
    340 This example strongly illustrates a core idea in \CFA: \emph{the \Index{power of a name}}.
     322Whereas, \CFA wraps each of these routines into one overloaded name ©abs©:
     323\begin{cfa}
     324char @abs@( char );
     325extern "C" { int @abs@( int ); } $\C{// use default C routine for int}$
     326long int @abs@( long int );
     327long long int @abs@( long long int );
     328float @abs@( float );
     329double @abs@( double );
     330long double @abs@( long double );
     331float _Complex @abs@( float _Complex );
     332double _Complex @abs@( double _Complex );
     333long double _Complex @abs@( long double _Complex );
     334\end{cfa}
     335The problem is \Index{name clash} between the C name ©abs© and the \CFA names ©abs©, resulting in two name linkages\index{C linkage}: ©extern "C"© and ©extern "Cforall"© (default).
     336Overloaded names must use \newterm{name mangling}\index{mangling!name} to create unique names that are different from unmangled C names.
     337Hence, there is the same need as in \CC to know if a name is a C or \CFA name, so it can be correctly formed.
     338The only way around this problem is C's approach of creating unique names for each pairing of operation and type.
     339
     340This example illustrates a core idea in \CFA: \emph{the \Index{power of a name}}.
    341341The name ``©abs©'' evokes the notion of absolute value, and many mathematical types provide the notion of absolute value.
    342342Hence, knowing the name ©abs© is sufficient to apply it to any type where it is applicable.

     529\CFA introduces several new keywords \see{\VRef{s:CFAKeywords}} that can clash with existing C variable-names in legacy code.
    516530Keyword clashes are accommodated by syntactic transformations using the \CFA backquote escape-mechanism:
    517531\begin{cfa}
    518 int ®``®otype = 3; §\C{// make keyword an identifier}§
    519 double ®``®forall = 3.5;
     532int @``@otype = 3; $\C{// make keyword an identifier}$
     533double @``@forall = 3.5;
    520534\end{cfa}
    521535
    522536Existing C programs with keyword clashes can be converted by enclosing keyword identifiers in backquotes, and eventually the identifier name can be changed to a non-keyword name.
    523 \VRef[Figure]{f:HeaderFileInterposition} shows how clashes in existing C header-files (see~\VRef{s:StandardHeaders}) can be handled using preprocessor \newterm{interposition}: ©#include_next© and ©-I filename©.

    524538Several common C header-files with keyword clashes are fixed in the standard \CFA header-library, so there is a seamless programming-experience.

    559573The rules for placement of underscores are:
     
    574588It is significantly easier to read and enter long constants when they are broken up into smaller groupings (many cultures use comma and/or period among digits for the same purpose).
    575589This extension is backwards compatible, matches with the use of underscore in variable names, and appears in \Index*{Ada} and \Index*{Java} 8.
     590\CC uses the single quote (©'©) as a separator, restricted within a sequence of digits, \eg ©0xaa©©'©©ff©, ©3.141©©'©©592E1©©'©©1©.

    579594
    580 C, \CC, and Java (and many other programming languages) have no exponentiation operator\index{exponentiation!operator}\index{operator!exponentiation}, \ie $x^y$, and instead use a routine, like \Indexc{pow(x,y)}, to perform the exponentiation operation.
    581 \CFA extends the basic operators with the exponentiation operator ©?®\®?©\index{?\\?@©?®\®?©} and ©?\=?©\index{?\\=?@©®\®=?©}, as in, ©x ®\® y© and ©x ®\®= y©, which means $x^y$ and $x \leftarrow x^y$.
    582 The priority of the exponentiation operator is between the cast and multiplicative operators, so that ©w * (int)x \ (int)y * z© is parenthesized as ©((w * (((int)x) \ ((int)y))) * z)©.
     595C, \CC, and Java (and other programming languages) have no exponentiation operator\index{exponentiation!operator}\index{operator!exponentiation}, \ie $x^y$, and instead use a routine, like \Indexc{pow(x,y)}, to perform the exponentiation operation.
     596\CFA extends the basic operators with the exponentiation operator ©?©\R{©\\©}©?©\index{?\\?@©?@\@?©} and ©?©\R{©\\©}©=?©\index{?\\=?@©@\@=?©}, as in, ©x ©\R{©\\©}© y© and ©x ©\R{©\\©}©= y©, which means $x^y$ and $x \leftarrow x^y$.
     597The priority of the exponentiation operator is between the cast and multiplicative operators, so that ©w * (int)x \ (int)y * z© is parenthesized as ©(w * (((int)x) \ ((int)y))) * z©.
    583598
    584599There are exponentiation operators for integral and floating types, including the builtin \Index{complex} types.
     
    587602Floating exponentiation\index{exponentiation!floating} is performed using \Index{logarithm}s\index{exponentiation!logarithm}, so the exponent cannot be negative.

    734752In this example, case 2 is always done if case 3 is done.
    735 This control flow is difficult to simulate with if statements or a ©switch© statement without fall-through as code must be duplicated or placed in a separate routine.
     753This control flow is difficult to simulate with ©if© statements or a ©switch© statement without fall-through as code must be duplicated or placed in a separate routine.
    736754C also uses fall-through to handle multiple case-values resulting in the same action:
    737755\begin{cfa}
    738756switch ( i ) {
    739   ®case 1: case 3: case 5:®     // odd values
     757  @case 1: case 3: case 5:@     // odd values
    740758        // odd action
    741759        break;
    742   ®case 2: case 4: case 6:®     // even values
     760  @case 2: case 4: case 6:@     // even values
    743761        // even action
    744762        break;
    745763}
    746764\end{cfa}
    747 However, this situation is handled in other languages without fall-through by allowing a list of case values.
    748 While fall-through itself is not a problem, the problem occurs when fall-through is the default, as this semantics is unintuitive to many programmers and is different from virtually all other programming languages with a ©switch© statement.
     765This situation better handled without fall-through by allowing a list of case values \see{\VRef{s:caseClause}}.
     766While fall-through itself is not a problem, the problem occurs when fall-through is the default, as this semantics is unintuitive to many programmers and is different from most programming languages with a ©switch© statement.
    749767Hence, default fall-through semantics results in a large number of programming errors as programmers often \emph{forget} the ©break© statement at the end of a ©case© clause, resulting in inadvertent fall-through.

    769 The problem with this usage is branching into control structures, which is known to cause both comprehension and technical difficulties.
    770 The comprehension problem occurs from the inability to determine how control reaches a particular point due to the number of branches leading to it.

     788The comprehension problem results from the inability to determine how control reaches a particular point due to the number of branches leading to it.
    771789The technical problem results from the inability to ensure declaration and initialization of variables when blocks are not entered at the beginning.
    772 There are no positive arguments for this kind of control flow, and therefore, there is a strong impetus to eliminate it.
     790There are few arguments for this kind of control flow, and therefore, there is a strong impetus to eliminate it.
    773791Nevertheless, C does have an idiom where this capability is used, known as ``\Index*{Duff's device}''~\cite{Duff83}:

    795813It is possible to place the ©default© clause anywhere in the list of labelled clauses for a ©switch© statement, rather than only at the end.
    796 Virtually all programming languages with a ©switch© statement require the ©default© clause to appear last in the case-clause list.
     814Most programming languages with a ©switch© statement require the ©default© clause to appear last in the case-clause list.
    797815The logic for this semantics is that after checking all the ©case© clauses without success, the ©default© clause is selected;
    798816hence, physically placing the ©default© clause at the end of the ©case© clause list matches with this semantics.
     
    803821\begin{cfa}
    804822switch ( x ) {
    805         ®int y = 1;® §\C{// unreachable initialization}§
    806         ®x = 7;® §\C{// unreachable code without label/branch}§
     823        @int y = 1;@ $\C{// unreachable initialization}$
     824        @x = 7;@ $\C{// unreachable code without label/branch}$
    807825  case 0: ...
    808826        ...
    809         ®int z = 0;® §\C{// unreachable initialization, cannot appear after case}§
     827        @int z = 0;@ $\C{// unreachable initialization, cannot appear after case}$
    810828        z = 2;
    811829  case 1:
    812         ®x = z;® §\C{// without fall through, z is uninitialized}§
     830        @x = z;@ $\C{// without fall through, z is uninitialized}$
    813831}
    814832\end{cfa}
    815833While the declaration of the local variable ©y© is useful with a scope across all ©case© clauses, the initialization for such a variable is defined to never be executed because control always transfers over it.
    816 Furthermore, any statements before the first ©case© clause can only be executed if labelled and transferred to using a ©goto©, either from outside or inside of the ©switch©, both of which are problematic.
    817 As well, the declaration of ©z© cannot occur after the ©case© because a label can only be attached to a statement, and without a fall through to case 3, ©z© is uninitialized.
    818 The key observation is that the ©switch© statement branches into control structure, \ie there are multiple entry points into its statement body.

    842860Therefore, to preserve backwards compatibility, it is necessary to introduce a new kind of ©switch© statement, called ©choose©, with no implicit fall-through semantics and an explicit fall-through if the last statement of a case-clause ends with the new keyword ©fallthrough©/©fallthru©, \eg:
    843861\begin{cfa}
    844 ®choose® ( i ) {
     862@choose@ ( i ) {
    845863  case 1:  case 2:  case 3:
    846864        ...
    847         ®// implicit end of switch (break)
    848   ®case 5:
     865        @// implicit end of switch (break)
     866  @case 5:
    849867        ...
    850         ®fallthru®; §\C{// explicit fall through}§
     868        @fallthru@; $\C{// explicit fall through}$
    851869  case 7:
    852870        ...
    853         ®break® §\C{// explicit end of switch (redundant)}§
     871        @break@ $\C{// explicit end of switch (redundant)}$
    854872  default:
    855873        j = 3;
    856874}
    857875\end{cfa}
    858 Like the ©switch© statement, the ©choose© statement retains the fall-through semantics for a list of ©case© clauses;
     876Like the ©switch© statement, the ©choose© statement retains the fall-through semantics for a list of ©case© clauses.
    859877An implicit ©break© is applied only at the end of the \emph{statements} following a ©case© clause.
    860878An explicit ©fallthru© is retained because it is a C-idiom most C programmers expect, and its absence might discourage programmers from using the ©choose© statement.

    12771330There is an interesting problem between parameters and the function-body ©with©, \eg:

     1333        @s.i = i;@  j = 3;  m = 5.5; $\C{// initialize fields}$
    12811334}
    12821335\end{cfa}
     
    12911344and implicitly opened \emph{after} a function-body open, to give them higher priority:
    12921345\begin{cfa}
    1293 void ?{}( S & s, int ®i® ) with ( s ) ®with( §\emph{\color{red}params}§ )® {
    1294         s.i = ®i®; j = 3; m = 5.5;
     1346void ?{}( S & s, int @i@ ) with ( s ) @with( $\emph{\R{params}}$ )@ {
     1347        s.i = @i@; j = 3; m = 5.5;
    12951348}
    12961349\end{cfa}
    12971350Finally, a cast may be used to disambiguate among overload variables in a ©with© expression:
    12981351\begin{cfa}
    1299 with ( w ) { ... } §\C{// ambiguous, same name and no context}§
    1300 with ( (S)w ) { ... } §\C{// unambiguous, cast}§
    1301 \end{cfa}
    1302 and ©with© expressions may be complex expressions with type reference (see Section~\ref{s:References}) to aggregate:
     1352with ( w ) { ... } $\C{// ambiguous, same name and no context}$
     1353with ( (S)w ) { ... } $\C{// unambiguous, cast}$
     1354\end{cfa}
     1355and ©with© expressions may be complex expressions with type reference \see{\VRef{s:References}} to aggregate:
    13031356% \begin{cfa}

    14311484The kind of raise and handler match: ©throw© with ©catch© and ©throwResume© with ©catchResume©.
    1432 Then the exception type must match along with any additonal predicate must be true.
     1485Then the exception type must match along with any additional predicate must be true.
    14331486The ©catch© and ©catchResume© handlers may appear in any oder.
    14341487However, the ©finally© clause must appear at the end of the ©try© statement.
     
    14831536For example, a routine returning a \Index{pointer} to an array of integers is defined and used in the following way:
    14841537\begin{cfa}
    1485 int ®(*®f®())[®5®]® {...}; §\C{// definition}§
    1486  ... ®(*®f®())[®3®]® += 1; §\C{// usage}§
     1538int @(*@f@())[@5@]@ {...}; $\C{// definition}$
     1539 ... @(*@f@())[@3@]@ += 1; $\C{// usage}$
    14871540\end{cfa}
    14881541Essentially, the return type is wrapped around the routine name in successive layers (like an \Index{onion}).

    17281782For example, \Index*{Algol68}~\cite{Algol68} infers pointer dereferencing to select the best meaning for each pointer usage
    17291783\begin{cfa}
    1730 p2 = p1 + x; §\C{// compiler infers *p2 = *p1 + x;}§
     1784p2 = p1 + x; $\C{// compiler infers *p2 = *p1 + x;}$
    17311785\end{cfa}
    17321786Algol68 infers the following dereferencing ©*p2 = *p1 + x©, because adding the arbitrary integer value in ©x© to the address of ©p1© and storing the resulting address into ©p2© is an unlikely operation.
     
    17361790In C, objects of pointer type always manipulate the pointer object's address:
    17371791\begin{cfa}
    1738 p1 = p2; §\C{// p1 = p2\ \ rather than\ \ *p1 = *p2}§
    1739 p2 = p1 + x; §\C{// p2 = p1 + x\ \ rather than\ \ *p2 = *p1 + x}§
     1792p1 = p2; $\C{// p1 = p2\ \ rather than\ \ *p1 = *p2}$
     1793p2 = p1 + x; $\C{// p2 = p1 + x\ \ rather than\ \ *p2 = *p1 + x}$
    17401794\end{cfa}
    17411795even though the assignment to ©p2© is likely incorrect, and the programmer probably meant:
    17421796\begin{cfa}
    1743 p1 = p2; §\C{// pointer address assignment}§
    1744 ®*®p2 = ®*®p1 + x; §\C{// pointed-to value assignment / operation}§
     1797p1 = p2; $\C{// pointer address assignment}$
     1798@*@p2 = @*@p1 + x; $\C{// pointed-to value assignment / operation}$
    17451799\end{cfa}
    17461800The C semantics work well for situations where manipulation of addresses is the primary meaning and data is rarely accessed, such as storage management (©malloc©/©free©).
     
    17581812To support this common case, a reference type is introduced in \CFA, denoted by ©&©, which is the opposite dereference semantics to a pointer type, making the value at the pointed-to location the implicit semantics for dereferencing (similar but not the same as \CC \Index{reference type}s).
    17591813\begin{cfa}
    1760 int x, y, ®&® r1, ®&® r2, ®&&® r3;
    1761 ®&®r1 = &x; §\C{// r1 points to x}§
    1762 ®&®r2 = &r1; §\C{// r2 points to x}§
    1763 ®&®r1 = &y; §\C{// r1 points to y}§
    1764 ®&&®r3 = ®&®&r2; §\C{// r3 points to r2}§
    1765 r2 = ((r1 + r2) * (r3 - r1)) / (r3 - 15); §\C{// implicit dereferencing}§
     1814int x, y, @&@ r1, @&@ r2, @&&@ r3;
     1815@&@r1 = &x; $\C{// r1 points to x}$
     1816@&@r2 = &r1; $\C{// r2 points to x}$
     1817@&@r1 = &y; $\C{// r1 points to y}$
     1818@&&@r3 = @&@&r2; $\C{// r3 points to r2}$
     1819r2 = ((r1 + r2) * (r3 - r1)) / (r3 - 15); $\C{// implicit dereferencing}$
    17661820\end{cfa}
    17671821Except for auto-dereferencing by the compiler, this reference example is the same as the previous pointer example.
     
    17691823One way to conceptualize a reference is via a rewrite rule, where the compiler inserts a dereference operator before the reference variable for each reference qualifier in a declaration, so the previous example becomes:
    17701824\begin{cfa}
    1771 ®*®r2 = ((®*®r1 + ®*®r2) ®*® (®**®r3 - ®*®r1)) / (®**®r3 - 15);
     1825@*@r2 = ((@*@r1 + @*@r2) @*@ (@**@r3 - @*@r1)) / (@**@r3 - 15);
    17721826\end{cfa}
    17731827When a reference operation appears beside a dereference operation, \eg ©&*©, they cancel out.
     
    17781832For a \CFA reference type, the cancellation on the left-hand side of assignment leaves the reference as an address (\Index{lvalue}):
    17791833\begin{cfa}
    1780 (&®*®)r1 = &x; §\C{// (\&*) cancel giving address in r1 not variable pointed-to by r1}§
     1834(&@*@)r1 = &x; $\C{// (\&*) cancel giving address in r1 not variable pointed-to by r1}$
    17811835\end{cfa}
    17821836Similarly, the address of a reference can be obtained for assignment or computation (\Index{rvalue}):
    17831837\begin{cfa}
    1784 (&(&®*®)®*®)r3 = &(&®*®)r2; §\C{// (\&*) cancel giving address in r2, (\&(\&*)*) cancel giving address in r3}§
     1838(&(&@*@)@*@)r3 = &(&@*@)r2; $\C{// (\&*) cancel giving address in r2, (\&(\&*)*) cancel giving address in r3}$
    17851839\end{cfa}
    17861840Cancellation\index{cancellation!pointer/reference}\index{pointer!cancellation} works to arbitrary depth.
     
    17901844int x, *p1 = &x, **p2 = &p1, ***p3 = &p2,
    17911845                 &r1 = x,    &&r2 = r1,   &&&r3 = r2;
    1792 ***p3 = 3; §\C{// change x}§
    1793 r3 = 3; §\C{// change x, ***r3}§
    1794 **p3 = ...; §\C{// change p1}§
    1795 &r3 = ...; §\C{// change r1, (\&*)**r3, 1 cancellation}§
    1796 *p3 = ...; §\C{// change p2}§
    1797 &&r3 = ...; §\C{// change r2, (\&(\&*)*)*r3, 2 cancellations}§
    1798 &&&r3 = p3; §\C{// change r3 to p3, (\&(\&(\&*)*)*)r3, 3 cancellations}§
     1846***p3 = 3; $\C{// change x}$
     1847r3 = 3; $\C{// change x, ***r3}$
     1848**p3 = ...; $\C{// change p1}$
     1849&r3 = ...; $\C{// change r1, (\&*)**r3, 1 cancellation}$
     1850*p3 = ...; $\C{// change p2}$
     1851&&r3 = ...; $\C{// change r2, (\&(\&*)*)*r3, 2 cancellations}$
     1852&&&r3 = p3; $\C{// change r3 to p3, (\&(\&(\&*)*)*)r3, 3 cancellations}$
    17991853\end{cfa}
    18001854Furthermore, both types are equally performant, as the same amount of dereferencing occurs for both types.
     
    18031857As for a pointer type, a reference type may have qualifiers:
    18041858\begin{cfa}
    1805 const int cx = 5; §\C{// cannot change cx;}§
    1806 const int & cr = cx; §\C{// cannot change what cr points to}§
    1807 ®&®cr = &cx; §\C{// can change cr}§
    1808 cr = 7; §\C{// error, cannot change cx}§
    1809 int & const rc = x; §\C{// must be initialized}§
    1810 ®&®rc = &x; §\C{// error, cannot change rc}§
    1811 const int & const crc = cx; §\C{// must be initialized}§
    1812 crc = 7; §\C{// error, cannot change cx}§
    1813 ®&®crc = &cx; §\C{// error, cannot change crc}§
     1859const int cx = 5; $\C{// cannot change cx;}$
     1860const int & cr = cx; $\C{// cannot change what cr points to}$
     1861@&@cr = &cx; $\C{// can change cr}$
     1862cr = 7; $\C{// error, cannot change cx}$
     1863int & const rc = x; $\C{// must be initialized}$
     1864@&@rc = &x; $\C{// error, cannot change rc}$
     1865const int & const crc = cx; $\C{// must be initialized}$
     1866crc = 7; $\C{// error, cannot change cx}$
     1867@&@crc = &cx; $\C{// error, cannot change crc}$
    18141868\end{cfa}
    18151869Hence, for type ©& const©, there is no pointer assignment, so ©&rc = &x© is disallowed, and \emph{the address value cannot be the null pointer unless an arbitrary pointer is coerced\index{coercion} into the reference}:
    18161870\begin{cfa}
    1817 int & const cr = *0; §\C{// where 0 is the int * zero}§
     1871int & const cr = *0; $\C{// where 0 is the int * zero}$
    18181872\end{cfa}
    18191873Note, constant reference-types do not prevent \Index{addressing errors} because of explicit storage-management:
     
    18221876cr = 5;
    18231877free( &cr );
    1824 cr = 7; §\C{// unsound pointer dereference}§
     1878cr = 7; $\C{// unsound pointer dereference}$
    18251879\end{cfa}
    18261880
    18271881The position of the ©const© qualifier \emph{after} the pointer/reference qualifier causes confuse for C programmers.
    18281882The ©const© qualifier cannot be moved before the pointer/reference qualifier for C style-declarations;
    1829 \CFA-style declarations (see \VRef{s:AlternativeDeclarations}) attempt to address this issue:

    18461900Finally, like pointers, references are usable and composable with other type operators and generators.

     1907sizeof( &ar[1] ) == sizeof( int *) $\C{// is true, \ie the size of a reference}$
    18541908\end{cfa}
    18551909
    18561910In contrast to \CFA reference types, \Index*[C++]{\CC{}}'s reference types are all ©const© references, preventing changes to the reference address, so only value assignment is possible, which eliminates half of the \Index{address duality}.
    18571911Also, \CC does not allow \Index{array}s\index{array!reference} of reference\footnote{
    1858 The reason for disallowing arrays of reference is unknown, but possibly comes from references being ethereal (like a textual macro), and hence, replaceable by the referant object.}
     1912The reason for disallowing arrays of reference is unknown, but possibly comes from references being ethereal (like a textual macro), and hence, replaceable by the referent object.}
    18591913\Index*{Java}'s reference types to objects (all Java objects are on the heap) are like C pointers, which always manipulate the address, and there is no (bit-wise) object assignment, so objects are explicitly cloned by shallow or deep copying, which eliminates half of the address duality.
    18601914
     
    18681922Therefore, for pointer/reference initialization, the initializing value must be an address not a value.
    18691923\begin{cfa}
    1870 int * p = &x; §\C{// assign address of x}§
    1871 ®int * p = x;® §\C{// assign value of x}§
    1872 int & r = x; §\C{// must have address of x}§
     1924int * p = &x; $\C{// assign address of x}$
     1925@int * p = x;@ $\C{// assign value of x}$
     1926int & r = x; $\C{// must have address of x}$
    18731927\end{cfa}
    18741928Like the previous example with C pointer-arithmetic, it is unlikely assigning the value of ©x© into a pointer is meaningful (again, a warning is usually given).
     
    18791933Similarly, when a reference type is used for a parameter/return type, the call-site argument does not require a reference operator for the same reason.
    18801934\begin{cfa}
    1881 int & f( int & r ); §\C{// reference parameter and return}§
    1882 z = f( x ) + f( y ); §\C{// reference operator added, temporaries needed for call results}§
     1935int & f( int & r ); $\C{// reference parameter and return}$
     1936z = f( x ) + f( y ); $\C{// reference operator added, temporaries needed for call results}$
    18831937\end{cfa}
    18841938Within routine ©f©, it is possible to change the argument by changing the corresponding parameter, and parameter ©r© can be locally reassigned within ©f©.
     
    18931947When a pointer/reference parameter has a ©const© value (immutable), it is possible to pass literals and expressions.
    18941948\begin{cfa}
    1895 void f( ®const® int & cr );
    1896 void g( ®const® int * cp );
    1897 f( 3 );                   g( ®&®3 );
    1898 f( x + y );             g( ®&®(x + y) );
     1949void f( @const@ int & cr );
     1950void g( @const@ int * cp );
     1951f( 3 );                   g( @&@3 );
     1952f( x + y );             g( @&@(x + y) );
    18991953\end{cfa}
    19001954Here, the compiler passes the address to the literal 3 or the temporary for the expression ©x + y©, knowing the argument cannot be changed through the parameter.
     
    19071961void f( int & r );
    19081962void g( int * p );
    1909 f( 3 );                   g( ®&®3 ); §\C{// compiler implicit generates temporaries}§
    1910 f( x + y );             g( ®&®(x + y) ); §\C{// compiler implicit generates temporaries}§
     1963f( 3 );                   g( @&@3 ); $\C{// compiler implicit generates temporaries}$
     1964f( x + y );             g( @&@(x + y) ); $\C{// compiler implicit generates temporaries}$
    19111965\end{cfa}
    19121966Essentially, there is an implicit \Index{rvalue} to \Index{lvalue} conversion in this case.\footnote{
     
    19191973\begin{cfa}
    19201974void f( int i );
    1921 void (* fp)( int ); §\C{// routine pointer}§
    1922 fp = f; §\C{// reference initialization}§
    1923 fp = &f; §\C{// pointer initialization}§
    1924 fp = *f; §\C{// reference initialization}§

     1977fp = &f; $\C{// pointer initialization}$
     1978fp = *f; $\C{// reference initialization}$
     1979fp(3); $\C{// reference invocation}$
     1980(*fp)(3); $\C{// pointer invocation}$
    19271981\end{cfa}
    19281982While C's treatment of routine objects has similarity to inferring a reference type in initialization contexts, the examples are assignment not initialization, and all possible forms of assignment are possible (©f©, ©&f©, ©*f©) without regard for type.
    19291983Instead, a routine object should be referenced by a ©const© reference:
    19301984\begin{cfa}
    1931 ®const® void (®&® fr)( int ) = f; §\C{// routine reference}§
    1932 fr = ... §\C{// error, cannot change code}§
    1933 &fr = ...; §\C{// changing routine reference}§
    1934 fr( 3 ); §\C{// reference call to f}§
    1935 (*fr)(3); §\C{// error, incorrect type}§
     1985@const@ void (@&@ fr)( int ) = f; $\C{// routine reference}$
     1986fr = ... $\C{// error, cannot change code}$
     1987&fr = ...; $\C{// changing routine reference}$
     1988fr( 3 ); $\C{// reference call to f}$
     1989(*fr)(3); $\C{// error, incorrect type}$
    19361990\end{cfa}
    19371991because the value of the routine object is a routine literal, \ie the routine code is normally immutable during execution.\footnote{

    19982052lvalue to reference conversion: \lstinline[deletekeywords=lvalue]@lvalue-type cv1 T@ converts to ©cv2 T &©, which allows implicitly converting variables to references.

    20032057Conversion can restrict a type, where ©cv1© $\le$ ©cv2©, \eg passing an ©int© to a ©const volatile int &©, which has low cost.

    20132067\end{cfa}
    20142068In both case, modifications to the temporary are inaccessible (\Index{warning}).
     
    21822236The point of the new syntax is to allow returning multiple values from a routine~\cite{Galletly96,CLU}, \eg:
    21832237\begin{cfa}
    2184 ®[ int o1, int o2, char o3 ]® f( int i1, char i2, char i3 ) {
    2185         §\emph{routine body}§
     2238@[ int o1, int o2, char o3 ]@ f( int i1, char i2, char i3 ) {
     2239        $\emph{routine body}$
    21862240}
    21872241\end{cfa}
     
    21942248Declaration qualifiers can only appear at the start of a routine definition, \eg:
    21952249\begin{cfa}
    2196 ®extern® [ int x ] g( int y ) {§\,§}
     2250@extern@ [ int x ] g( int y ) {$\,$}
    21972251\end{cfa}
    21982252Lastly, if there are no output parameters or input parameters, the brackets and/or parentheses must still be specified;
    21992253in both cases the type is assumed to be void as opposed to old style C defaults of int return type and unknown parameter types, respectively, as in:
    22002254\begin{cfa}
    2201 [§\,§] g(); §\C{// no input or output parameters}§
    2202 [ void ] g( void ); §\C{// no input or output parameters}§
     2255[$\,$] g(); $\C{// no input or output parameters}$
     2256[ void ] g( void ); $\C{// no input or output parameters}$
    22032257\end{cfa}
    22042258
     
    22182272\begin{cfa}
    22192273typedef int foo;
    2220 int f( int (* foo) ); §\C{// foo is redefined as a parameter name}§
     2274int f( int (* foo) ); $\C{// foo is redefined as a parameter name}$
    22212275\end{cfa}
    22222276The string ``©int (* foo)©'' declares a C-style named-parameter of type pointer to an integer (the parenthesis are superfluous), while the same string declares a \CFA style unnamed parameter of type routine returning integer with unnamed parameter of type pointer to foo.
     
    22262280C-style declarations can be used to declare parameters for \CFA style routine definitions, \eg:
    22272281\begin{cfa}
    2228 [ int ] f( * int, int * ); §\C{// returns an integer, accepts 2 pointers to integers}§
    2229 [ * int, int * ] f( int ); §\C{// returns 2 pointers to integers, accepts an integer}§
     2282[ int ] f( * int, int * ); $\C{// returns an integer, accepts 2 pointers to integers}$
     2283[ * int, int * ] f( int ); $\C{// returns 2 pointers to integers, accepts an integer}$
    22302284\end{cfa}
    22312285The reason for allowing both declaration styles in the new context is for backwards compatibility with existing preprocessor macros that generate C-style declaration-syntax, as in:
    22322286\begin{cfa}
    22332287#define ptoa( n, d ) int (*n)[ d ]
    2234 int f( ptoa( p, 5 ) ) ... §\C{// expands to int f( int (*p)[ 5 ] )}§
    2235 [ int ] f( ptoa( p, 5 ) ) ... §\C{// expands to [ int ] f( int (*p)[ 5 ] )}§
     2288int f( ptoa( p, 5 ) ) ... $\C{// expands to int f( int (*p)[ 5 ] )}$
     2289[ int ] f( ptoa( p, 5 ) ) ... $\C{// expands to [ int ] f( int (*p)[ 5 ] )}$
    22362290\end{cfa}
    22372291Again, programmers are highly encouraged to use one declaration form or the other, rather than mixing the forms.
     
    22522306\begin{minipage}{\linewidth}
    22532307\begin{cfa}
    2254 ®[ int x, int y ]® f() {
     2308@[ int x, int y ]@ f() {
    22552309        int z;
    22562310        ... x = 0; ... y = z; ...

    2267 } §\C{// implicitly return x, y}§
     2321} $\C{// implicitly return x, y}$
    22682322\end{cfa}
    22692323In this case, the current values of ©x© and ©y© are returned to the calling routine just as if a ©return© had been encountered.
     
    22742328[ int x, int y ] f( int, x, int y ) {
    22752329        ...
    2276 } §\C{// implicitly return x, y}§
     2330} $\C{// implicitly return x, y}$
    22772331\end{cfa}
    22782332This notation allows the compiler to eliminate temporary variables in nested routine calls.
    22792333\begin{cfa}
    2280 [ int x, int y ] f( int, x, int y ); §\C{// prototype declaration}§
     2334[ int x, int y ] f( int, x, int y ); $\C{// prototype declaration}$
    22812335int a, b;
    22822336[a, b] = f( f( f( a, b ) ) );
     
    22922346as well, parameter names are optional, \eg:
    22932347\begin{cfa}
    2294 [ int x ] f (); §\C{// returning int with no parameters}§
    2295 [ * int ] g (int y); §\C{// returning pointer to int with int parameter}§
    2296 [ ] h ( int, char ); §\C{// returning no result with int and char parameters}§
    2297 [ * int, int ] j ( int ); §\C{// returning pointer to int and int, with int parameter}§
     2348[ int x ] f (); $\C{// returning int with no parameters}$
     2349[ * int ] g (int y); $\C{// returning pointer to int with int parameter}$
     2350[ ] h ( int, char ); $\C{// returning no result with int and char parameters}$
     2351[ * int, int ] j ( int ); $\C{// returning pointer to int and int, with int parameter}$
    22982352\end{cfa}
    22992353This syntax allows a prototype declaration to be created by cutting and pasting source text from the routine definition header (or vice versa).
    2300 Like C, it is possible to declare multiple routine-prototypes in a single declaration, where the return type is distributed across \emph{all} routine names in the declaration list (see~\VRef{s:AlternativeDeclarations}), \eg:
     2354Like C, it is possible to declare multiple routine-prototypes in a single declaration, where the return type is distributed across \emph{all} routine names in the declaration list \see{\VRef{s:AlternativeDeclarations}}, \eg:
    23012355\begin{cfa}
    23022356C :             const double bar1(), bar2( int ), bar3( double );
    2303 §\CFA§: [const double] foo(), foo( int ), foo( double ) { return 3.0; }
     2357$\CFA$: [const double] foo(), foo( int ), foo( double ) { return 3.0; }
    23042358\end{cfa}
    23052359\CFA allows the last routine in the list to define its body.
     
    23162370The syntax for pointers to \CFA routines specifies the pointer name on the right, \eg:
    23172371\begin{cfa}
    2318 * [ int x ] () fp; §\C{// pointer to routine returning int with no parameters}§
    2319 * [ * int ] (int y) gp; §\C{// pointer to routine returning pointer to int with int parameter}§
    2320 * [ ] (int,char) hp; §\C{// pointer to routine returning no result with int and char parameters}§
    2321 * [ * int,int ] ( int ) jp; §\C{// pointer to routine returning pointer to int and int, with int parameter}§
     2372* [ int x ] () fp; $\C[2.25in]{// pointer to routine returning int with no parameters}$
     2373* [ * int ] (int y) gp; $\C{// pointer to routine returning pointer to int with int parameter}$
     2374* [ ] (int,char) hp; $\C{// pointer to routine returning no result with int and char parameters}$
     2375* [ * int,int ] ( int ) jp; $\C{// pointer to routine returning pointer to int and int, with int parameter}\CRT$
    23222376\end{cfa}
    23232377While parameter names are optional, \emph{a routine name cannot be specified};
    23242378for example, the following is incorrect:
    23252379\begin{cfa}
    2326 * [ int x ] f () fp; §\C{// routine name "f" is not allowed}§
     2380* [ int x ] f () fp; $\C{// routine name "f" is not allowed}$
    23272381\end{cfa}
    23282382
     
    23472401whereas a named (keyword) call may be:
    23482402\begin{cfa}
    2349 p( z : 3, x : 4, y : 7 );  §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 4, 7, 3 )}§
     2403p( z : 3, x : 4, y : 7 );  $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 4, 7, 3 )}$
    23502404\end{cfa}
    23512405Here the order of the arguments is unimportant, and the names of the parameters are used to associate argument values with the corresponding parameters.
     
    23642418For example, the following routine prototypes and definition are all valid.
    23652419\begin{cfa}
    2366 void p( int, int, int ); §\C{// equivalent prototypes}§
     2420void p( int, int, int ); $\C{// equivalent prototypes}$
    23672421void p( int x, int y, int z );
    23682422void p( int y, int x, int z );
    23692423void p( int z, int y, int x );
    2370 void p( int q, int r, int s ) {} §\C{// match with this definition}§
     2424void p( int q, int r, int s ) {} $\C{// match with this definition}$
    23712425\end{cfa}
    23722426Forcing matching parameter names in routine prototypes with corresponding routine definitions is possible, but goes against a strong tradition in C programming.
     
    23802434int f( int x, double y );
    23812435
    2382 f( j : 3, i : 4 ); §\C{// 1st f}§
    2383 f( x : 7, y : 8.1 ); §\C{// 2nd f}§
    2384 f( 4, 5 );  §\C{// ambiguous call}§
     2436f( j : 3, i : 4 ); $\C{// 1st f}$
     2437f( x : 7, y : 8.1 ); $\C{// 2nd f}$
     2438f( 4, 5 );  $\C{// ambiguous call}$
    23852439\end{cfa}
    23862440However, named arguments compound routine resolution in conjunction with conversions:
    23872441\begin{cfa}
    2388 f( i : 3, 5.7 ); §\C{// ambiguous call ?}§
     2442f( i : 3, 5.7 ); $\C{// ambiguous call ?}$
    23892443\end{cfa}
    23902444Depending on the cost associated with named arguments, this call could be resolvable or ambiguous.
     
    24002454the allowable positional calls are:
    24012455\begin{cfa}
    2402 p(); §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 1, 2, 3 )}§

    2409 p( 4, 4,   ); §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 4, 4, 3 )}§

    2411 p(  , 4,   ); §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 1, 4, 3 )}§
    2412 p(  ,  , 4 ); §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 1, 2, 4 )}§
    2413 p(  ,  ,   ); §\C{// rewrite $\Rightarrow$ p( 1, 2, 3 )}§
     2461p(  , 4, 4 ); $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 1, 4, 4 )}$
     2462p( 4,  , 4 ); $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 4, 2, 4 )}$
     2463p( 4, 4,   ); $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 4, 4, 3 )}$

     2466p(  ,  , 4 ); $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 1, 2, 4 )}$
     2467p(  ,  ,   ); $\C{// rewrite \(\Rightarrow\) p( 1, 2, 3 )}$
    24142468\end{cfa}
    24152469Here the missing arguments are inserted from the default values in the parameter list.
     
    24352489Default values may only appear in a prototype versus definition context:
    24362490\begin{cfa}
    2437 void p( int x, int y = 2, int z = 3 ); §\C{// prototype: allowed}§
    2438 void p( int, int = 2, int = 3 ); §\C{// prototype: allowed}§
    2439 void p( int x, int y = 2, int z = 3 ) {} §\C{// definition: not allowed}§
     2491void p( int x, int y = 2, int z = 3 ); $\C{// prototype: allowed}$
     2492void p( int, int = 2, int = 3 ); $\C{// prototype: allowed}$
     2493void p( int x, int y = 2, int z = 3 ) {} $\C{// definition: not allowed}$
    24402494\end{cfa}
    24412495The reason for this restriction is to allow separate compilation.
     
    24522506\begin{cfa}
    24532507p( int x, int y, int z, ... );
    2454 p( 1, 4, 5, 6, z : 3, y : 2 ); §\C{// assume p( /* positional */, ... , /* named */ );}§
    2455 p( 1, z : 3, y : 2, 4, 5, 6 ); §\C{// assume p( /* positional */, /* named */, ... );}§
     2508p( 1, 4, 5, 6, z : 3, y : 2 ); $\C{// assume p( /* positional */, ... , /* named */ );}$
     2509p( 1, z : 3, y : 2, 4, 5, 6 ); $\C{// assume p( /* positional */, /* named */, ... );}$
    24562510\end{cfa}
    24572511In the first call, it is necessary for the programmer to conceptually rewrite the call, changing named arguments into positional, before knowing where the ellipse arguments begin.
     
    24622516\begin{cfa}
    24632517void p( int x, int y = 2, int z = 3... );
    2464 p( 1, 4, 5, 6, z : 3 ); §\C{// assume p( /* positional */, ... , /* named */ );}§
    2465 p( 1, z : 3, 4, 5, 6 ); §\C{// assume p( /* positional */, /* named */, ... );}§
     2518p( 1, 4, 5, 6, z : 3 ); $\C{// assume p( /* positional */, ... , /* named */ );}$
     2519p( 1, z : 3, 4, 5, 6 ); $\C{// assume p( /* positional */, /* named */, ... );}$
    24662520\end{cfa}
    24672521The first call is an error because arguments 4 and 5 are actually positional not ellipse arguments;
     
    24692523In the second call, the default value for y is implicitly inserted after argument 1 and the named arguments separate the positional and ellipse arguments, making it trivial to read the call.
    24702524For these reasons, \CFA requires named arguments before ellipse arguments.
    2471 Finally, while ellipse arguments are needed for a small set of existing C routines, like printf, the extended \CFA type system largely eliminates the need for ellipse arguments (see Section 24), making much of this discussion moot.
    2472 
    2473 Default arguments and overloading (see Section 24) are complementary.
     2525Finally, while ellipse arguments are needed for a small set of existing C routines, like ©printf©, the extended \CFA type system largely eliminates the need for ellipse arguments \see{\VRef{s:Overloading}}, making much of this discussion moot.
     2526
     2527Default arguments and overloading \see{\VRef{s:Overloading}} are complementary.
    24742528While in theory default arguments can be simulated with overloading, as in:
    24752529\begin{cquote}
     
    24932547Furthermore, overloading cannot handle accessing default arguments in the middle of a positional list, via a missing argument, such as:

    26472701In C and \CFA, lists of elements appear in several contexts, such as the parameter list of a routine call.

     2703f( @2, x, 3 + i@ ); $\C{// element list}$

    26512705A list of elements is called a \newterm{tuple}, and is different from a \Index{comma expression}.
     
    26562710
    26572711In C and most programming languages, functions return at most one value;
    2658 however, many operations have multiple outcomes, some exceptional (see~\VRef{s:ExceptionHandling}).
     2712however, many operations have multiple outcomes, some exceptional \see{\VRef{s:ExceptionHandling}}.
    26592713To emulate functions with multiple return values, \emph{\Index{aggregation}} and/or \emph{\Index{aliasing}} is used.
    26602714
     
    26622716For example, consider C's \Indexc{div} function, which returns the quotient and remainder for a division of an integer value.
    26632717\begin{cfa}
    2664 typedef struct { int quot, rem; } div_t;        §\C[7cm]{// from include stdlib.h}§
     2718typedef struct { int quot, rem; } div_t;        $\C[7cm]{// from include stdlib.h}$
    26652719div_t div( int num, int den );
    2666 div_t qr = div( 13, 5 ); §\C{// return quotient/remainder aggregate}§
    2667 printf( "%d %d\n", qr.quot, qr.rem ); §\C{// print quotient/remainder}§
     2720div_t qr = div( 13, 5 ); $\C{// return quotient/remainder aggregate}$
     2721printf( "%d %d\n", qr.quot, qr.rem ); $\C{// print quotient/remainder}$
    26682722\end{cfa}
    26692723This approach requires a name for the return type and fields, where \Index{naming} is a common programming-language issue.
     
    26752729For example, consider C's \Indexc{modf} function, which returns the integral and fractional part of a floating value.
    26762730\begin{cfa}
    2677 double modf( double x, double * i ); §\C{// from include math.h}§
    2678 double intp, frac = modf( 13.5, &intp ); §\C{// return integral and fractional components}§
    2679 printf( "%g %g\n", intp, frac ); §\C{// print integral/fractional components}§
     2731double modf( double x, double * i ); $\C{// from include math.h}$
     2732double intp, frac = modf( 13.5, &intp ); $\C{// return integral and fractional components}$
     2733printf( "%g %g\n", intp, frac ); $\C{// print integral/fractional components}$
    26802734\end{cfa}
    26812735This approach requires allocating storage for the return values, which complicates the call site with a sequence of variable declarations leading to the call.
     
    27042758When a function call is passed as an argument to another call, the best match of actual arguments to formal parameters is evaluated given all possible expression interpretations in the current scope.
    27052759\begin{cfa}
    2706 void g( int, int ); §\C{// 1}§
    2707 void g( double, double ); §\C{// 2}§
    2708 g( div( 13, 5 ) ); §\C{// select 1}§
    2709 g( modf( 13.5 ) ); §\C{// select 2}§
     2760void g( int, int ); $\C{// 1}$
     2761void g( double, double ); $\C{// 2}$
     2762g( div( 13, 5 ) ); $\C{// select 1}$
     2763g( modf( 13.5 ) ); $\C{// select 2}$
    27102764\end{cfa}
    27112765In this case, there are two overloaded ©g© routines.
     
    27162770The previous examples can be rewritten passing the multiple returned-values directly to the ©printf© function call.
    27172771\begin{cfa}
    2718 [ int, int ] div( int x, int y ); §\C{// from include stdlib}§
    2719 printf( "%d %d\n", div( 13, 5 ) ); §\C{// print quotient/remainder}§
    2720 
    2721 [ double, double ] modf( double x ); §\C{// from include math}§
    2722 printf( "%g %g\n", modf( 13.5 ) ); §\C{// print integral/fractional components}§
     2772[ int, int ] div( int x, int y ); $\C{// from include stdlib}$
     2773printf( "%d %d\n", div( 13, 5 ) ); $\C{// print quotient/remainder}$
     2774
     2775[ double, double ] modf( double x ); $\C{// from include math}$
     2776printf( "%g %g\n", modf( 13.5 ) ); $\C{// print integral/fractional components}$
    27232777\end{cfa}
    27242778This approach provides the benefits of compile-time checking for appropriate return statements as in aggregation, but without the required verbosity of declaring a new named type.
     
    27302784\begin{cfa}
    27312785int quot, rem;
    2732 [ quot, rem ] = div( 13, 5 ); §\C{// assign multiple variables}§
    2733 printf( "%d %d\n", quot, rem ); §\C{// print quotient/remainder}\CRT§
     2786[ quot, rem ] = div( 13, 5 ); $\C{// assign multiple variables}$
     2787printf( "%d %d\n", quot, rem ); $\C{// print quotient/remainder}\CRT$
    27342788\end{cfa}
    27352789Here, the multiple return-values are matched in much the same way as passing multiple return-values to multiple parameters in a call.
     
    27602814In \CFA, it is possible to overcome this restriction by declaring a \newterm{tuple variable}.
    27612815\begin{cfa}
    2762 [int, int] ®qr® = div( 13, 5 ); §\C{// initialize tuple variable}§
    2763 printf( "%d %d\n", ®qr® ); §\C{// print quotient/remainder}§
     2816[int, int] @qr@ = div( 13, 5 ); $\C{// initialize tuple variable}$
     2817printf( "%d %d\n", @qr@ ); $\C{// print quotient/remainder}$
    27642818\end{cfa}
    27652819It is now possible to match the multiple return-values to a single variable, in much the same way as \Index{aggregation}.
     
    27672821One way to access the individual components of a tuple variable is with assignment.
    27682822\begin{cfa}
    2769 [ quot, rem ] = qr; §\C{// assign multiple variables}§
     2823[ quot, rem ] = qr; $\C{// assign multiple variables}$
    27702824\end{cfa}
    27712825
     
    27902844[int, double] * p;
    27912845
    2792 int y = x.0; §\C{// access int component of x}§
    2793 y = f().1; §\C{// access int component of f}§
    2794 p->0 = 5; §\C{// access int component of tuple pointed-to by p}§
    2795 g( x.1, x.0 ); §\C{// rearrange x to pass to g}§
    2796 double z = [ x, f() ].0.1; §\C{// access second component of first component of tuple expression}§
     2846int y = x.0; $\C{// access int component of x}$
     2847y = f().1; $\C{// access int component of f}$
     2848p->0 = 5; $\C{// access int component of tuple pointed-to by p}$
     2849g( x.1, x.0 ); $\C{// rearrange x to pass to g}$
     2850double z = [ x, f() ].0.1; $\C{// access second component of first component of tuple expression}$
    27972851\end{cfa}
    27982852Tuple-index expressions can occur on any tuple-typed expression, including tuple-returning functions, square-bracketed tuple expressions, and other tuple-index expressions, provided the retrieved component is also a tuple.

    28022856\subsection{Flattening and Structuring}
     2857\label{s:FlatteningStructuring}
    28032858
    28042859As evident in previous examples, tuples in \CFA do not have a rigid structure.
     
    28612916double y;
    28622917[int, double] z;
    2863 [y, x] = 3.14; §\C{// mass assignment}§
    2864 [x, y] = z;                                                         §\C{// multiple assignment}§
    2865 z = 10;                                                         §\C{// mass assignment}§
    2866 z = [x, y]; §\C{// multiple assignment}§
     2918[y, x] = 3.14; $\C{// mass assignment}$
     2919[x, y] = z;                                                         $\C{// multiple assignment}$
     2920z = 10;                                                         $\C{// mass assignment}$
     2921z = [x, y]; $\C{// multiple assignment}$
    28672922\end{cfa}
    28682923Let $L_i$ for $i$ in $[0, n)$ represent each component of the flattened left side, $R_i$ represent each component of the flattened right side of a multiple assignment, and $R$ represent the right side of a mass assignment.
     
    28722927\begin{cfa}
    28732928[ int, int ] x, y, z;
    2874 [ x, y ] = z;                                              §\C{// multiple assignment, invalid 4 != 2}§
     2929[ x, y ] = z;                                              $\C{// multiple assignment, invalid 4 != 2}$
    28752930\end{cfa}
    28762931Multiple assignment assigns $R_i$ to $L_i$ for each $i$.
     
    29082963        double c, d;
    29092964        [ void ] f( [ int, int ] );
    2910         f( [ c, a ] = [ b, d ] = 1.5 ); §\C{// assignments in parameter list}§
     2965        f( [ c, a ] = [ b, d ] = 1.5 ); $\C{// assignments in parameter list}$
    29112966\end{cfa}
    29122967The tuple expression begins with a mass assignment of ©1.5© into ©[b, d]©, which assigns ©1.5© into ©b©, which is truncated to ©1©, and ©1.5© into ©d©, producing the tuple ©[1, 1.5]© as a result.
     
    29212976\begin{cfa}
    29222977struct S;
    2923 void ?{}(S *); §\C{// (1)}§
    2924 void ?{}(S *, int); §\C{// (2)}§
    2925 void ?{}(S * double); §\C{// (3)}§
    2926 void ?{}(S *, S); §\C{// (4)}§
    2927 
    2928 [S, S] x = [3, 6.28]; §\C{// uses (2), (3), specialized constructors}§
    2929 [S, S] y; §\C{// uses (1), (1), default constructor}§
    2930 [S, S] z = x.0; §\C{// uses (4), (4), copy constructor}§
     2978void ?{}(S *); $\C{// (1)}$
     2979void ?{}(S *, int); $\C{// (2)}$
     2980void ?{}(S * double); $\C{// (3)}$
     2981void ?{}(S *, S); $\C{// (4)}$
     2982
     2983[S, S] x = [3, 6.28]; $\C{// uses (2), (3), specialized constructors}$
     2984[S, S] y; $\C{// uses (1), (1), default constructor}$
     2985[S, S] z = x.0; $\C{// uses (4), (4), copy constructor}$
    29312986\end{cfa}
    29322987In this example, ©x© is initialized by the multiple constructor calls ©?{}(&x.0, 3)© and ©?{}(&x.1, 6.28)©, while ©y© is initialized by two default constructor calls ©?{}(&y.0)© and ©?{}(&y.1)©.
     
    29693024A member-access tuple may be used anywhere a tuple can be used, \eg:
    29703025\begin{cfa}
    2971 s.[ y, z, x ] = [ 3, 3.2, 'x' ]; §\C{// equivalent to s.x = 'x', s.y = 3, s.z = 3.2}§
    2972 f( s.[ y, z ] ); §\C{// equivalent to f( s.y, s.z )}§
     3026s.[ y, z, x ] = [ 3, 3.2, 'x' ]; $\C{// equivalent to s.x = 'x', s.y = 3, s.z = 3.2}$
     3027f( s.[ y, z ] ); $\C{// equivalent to f( s.y, s.z )}$
    29733028\end{cfa}
    29743029Note, the fields appearing in a record-field tuple may be specified in any order;
     
    29803035void f( double, long );
    29813036
    2982 f( x.[ 0, 3 ] ); §\C{// f( x.0, x.3 )}§
    2983 x.[ 0, 1 ] = x.[ 1, 0 ]; §\C{// [ x.0, x.1 ] = [ x.1, x.0 ]}§
     3037f( x.[ 0, 3 ] ); $\C{// f( x.0, x.3 )}$
     3038x.[ 0, 1 ] = x.[ 1, 0 ]; $\C{// [ x.0, x.1 ] = [ x.1, x.0 ]}$
    29843039[ long, int, long ] y = x.[ 2, 0, 2 ];
    29853040\end{cfa}
     
    29983053\begin{cfa}
    29993054[ int, float, double ] f();
    3000 [ double, float ] x = f().[ 2, 1 ]; §\C{// f() called once}§
     3055[ double, float ] x = f().[ 2, 1 ]; $\C{// f() called once}$
    30013056\end{cfa}
    30023057
     
    30113066That is, a cast can be used to select the type of an expression when it is ambiguous, as in the call to an overloaded function.
    30123067\begin{cfa}
    3013 int f(); §\C{// (1)}§
    3014 double f(); §\C{// (2)}§
    3015 
    3016 f(); §\C{// ambiguous - (1),(2) both equally viable}§
    3017 (int)f(); §\C{// choose (2)}§
     3068int f(); $\C{// (1)}$
     3069double f(); $\C{// (2)}$
     3070
     3071f(); $\C{// ambiguous - (1),(2) both equally viable}$
     3072(int)f(); $\C{// choose (2)}$
    30183073\end{cfa}
    30193074Since casting is a fundamental operation in \CFA, casts need to be given a meaningful interpretation in the context of tuples.
     
    30233078void g();
    30243079
    3025 (void)f(); §\C{// valid, ignore results}§

     3080(void)f(); $\C{// valid, ignore results}$

    30313086In C, line 4 is a valid cast, which calls ©f© and discards its result.

    31463201The general syntax of a lexical list is:
    31473202\begin{cfa}
    3148 [ §\emph{exprlist}§ ]
     3203[ $\emph{exprlist}$ ]
    31493204\end{cfa}
    31503205where ©$\emph{exprlist}$© is a list of one or more expressions separated by commas.
     
    31583213Tuples are permitted to contain sub-tuples (\ie nesting), such as ©[ [ 14, 21 ], 9 ]©, which is a 2-element tuple whose first element is itself a tuple.
    31593214Note, a tuple is not a record (structure);
    3160 a record denotes a single value with substructure, whereas a tuple is multiple values with no substructure (see flattening coercion in Section 12.1).
     3215a record denotes a single value with substructure, whereas a tuple is multiple values with no substructure \see{flattening coercion in \VRef{s:FlatteningStructuring}}.
    31613216In essence, tuples are largely a compile time phenomenon, having little or no runtime presence.
    31623217
     
    31663221The general syntax of a tuple type is:
    31673222\begin{cfa}
    3168 [ §\emph{typelist}§ ]
     3223[ $\emph{typelist}$ ]
    31693224\end{cfa}
    31703225where ©$\emph{typelist}$© is a list of one or more legal \CFA or C type specifications separated by commas, which may include other tuple type specifications.
     
    31733228[ unsigned int, char ]
    31743229[ double, double, double ]
    3175 [ * int, int * ] §\C{// mix of CFA and ANSI}§
     3230[ * int, int * ] $\C{// mix of CFA and ANSI}$
    31763231[ * [ 5 ] int, * * char, * [ [ int, int ] ] (int, int) ]
    31773232\end{cfa}
     
    31803235Examples of declarations using tuple types are:
    31813236\begin{cfa}
    3182 [ int, int ] x; §\C{// 2 element tuple, each element of type int}§
    3183 * [ char, char ] y; §\C{// pointer to a 2 element tuple}§
     3237[ int, int ] x; $\C{// 2 element tuple, each element of type int}$
     3238* [ char, char ] y; $\C{// pointer to a 2 element tuple}$
    31843239[ [ int, int ] ] z ([ int, int ]);
    31853240\end{cfa}
     
    31983253[ int, int ] w1;
    31993254[ int, int, int ] w2;
    3200 [ void ] f (int, int, int); §\C{// three input parameters of type int}§
    3201 [ void ] g ([ int, int, int ]); §\C{3 element tuple as input}§
     3255[ void ] f (int, int, int); $\C{// three input parameters of type int}$
     3256[ void ] g ([ int, int, int ]); $\C{3 element tuple as input}$
    32023257f( [ 1, 2, 3 ] );
    32033258f( w1, 3 );
     
    32793334[ int, int, int, int ] w = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];
    32803335int x = 5;
    3281 [ x, w ] = [ w, x ]; §\C{// all four tuple coercions}§
     3336[ x, w ] = [ w, x ]; $\C{// all four tuple coercions}$
    32823337\end{cfa}
    32833338Starting on the right-hand tuple in the last assignment statement, w is opened, producing a tuple of four values;
     
    32853340This tuple is then flattened, yielding ©[ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]©, which is structured into ©[ 1, [ 2, 3, 4, 5 ] ]© to match the tuple type of the left-hand side.
    32863341The tuple ©[ 2, 3, 4, 5 ]© is then closed to create a tuple value.
    3287 Finally, ©x© is assigned ©1© and ©w© is assigned the tuple value using multiple assignment (see Section 14).
     3342Finally, ©x© is assigned ©1© and ©w© is assigned the tuple value using \Index{multiple assignment} \see{\VRef{s:TupleAssignment}}.
    32883343\begin{rationale}
    32893344A possible additional language extension is to use the structuring coercion for tuples to initialize a complex record with a tuple.
     
    32963351Mass assignment has the following form:
    32973352\begin{cfa}
    3298 [ §\emph{lvalue}§, ... , §\emph{lvalue}§ ] = §\emph{expr}§;
     3353[ $\emph{lvalue}$, ... , $\emph{lvalue}$ ] = $\emph{expr}$;
    32993354\end{cfa}
    33003355\index{lvalue}
     
    33363391Multiple assignment has the following form:
    33373392\begin{cfa}
    3338 [ §\emph{lvalue}§, ... , §\emph{lvalue}§ ] = [ §\emph{expr}§, ... , §\emph{expr}§ ];
     3393[ $\emph{lvalue}$, ... , $\emph{lvalue}$ ] = [ $\emph{expr}$, ... , $\emph{expr}$ ];
    33393394\end{cfa}
    33403395\index{lvalue}
     
    33673422both these examples produce indeterminate results:
    33683423\begin{cfa}
    3369 f( x++, x++ ); §\C{// C routine call with side effects in arguments}§
    3370 [ v1, v2 ] = [ x++, x++ ]; §\C{// side effects in righthand side of multiple assignment}§
     3424f( x++, x++ ); $\C{// C routine call with side effects in arguments}$
     3425[ v1, v2 ] = [ x++, x++ ]; $\C{// side effects in right-hand side of multiple assignment}$
    33713426\end{cfa}
    33723427
     
    33773432Cascade assignment has the following form:
    33783433\begin{cfa}
    3379 §\emph{tuple}§ = §\emph{tuple}§ = ... = §\emph{tuple}§;
     3434$\emph{tuple}$ = $\emph{tuple}$ = ... = $\emph{tuple}$;
    33803435\end{cfa}
    33813436and it has the same parallel semantics as for mass and multiple assignment.

    41024156A type definition is different from a typedef in C because a typedef just creates an alias for a type,  while Do.s type definition creates a distinct type.
    4103 This means that users can define distinct function overloads for the new type (see Overloading for more information).
     4157This means that users can define distinct function overloads for the new type \see{\VRef{s:Overloading} for more information}.
    41044158For example:
    41054159
     
    42074261\CFA supports C initialization of structures, but it also adds constructors for more advanced initialization.
    42084262Additionally, \CFA adds destructors that are called when a variable is deallocated (variable goes out of scope or object is deleted).
    4209 These functions take a reference to the structure as a parameter (see References for more information).

    42614316Overloading refers to the capability of a programmer to define and use multiple objects in a program with the same name.
     
    44684523For example, given

    49645019When building a \CFA module which needs to be callable from C code, users can use the tools to generate a header file suitable for including in these C files with all of the needed declarations.
    49655020
    4966 In order to interoperate with existing C code, \CFA files can still include header files, the contents of which will be enclosed in a C linkage section to indicate C calling conventions (see Interoperability for more information).

    62826337In \CFA, there are ambiguous cases with dereference and operator identifiers, \eg ©int *?*?()©, where the string ©*?*?© can be interpreted as:
    62836338\begin{cfa}
    6284 *?§\color{red}\textvisiblespace§*? §\C{// dereference operator, dereference operator}§
    6285 *§\color{red}\textvisiblespace§?*? §\C{// dereference, multiplication operator}§
     6339*?$\R{\textvisiblespace}$*? $\C{// dereference operator, dereference operator}$
     6340*$\R{\textvisiblespace}$?*? $\C{// dereference, multiplication operator}$
    62866341\end{cfa}
    62876342By default, the first interpretation is selected, which does not yield a meaningful parse.
     
    62926347The ambiguity occurs when the deference operator has no parameters:
    62936348\begin{cfa}
    6294 *?()§\color{red}\textvisiblespace...§ ;
    6295 *?()§\color{red}\textvisiblespace...§(...) ;
     6349*?()$\R{\textvisiblespace...}$ ;
     6350*?()$\R{\textvisiblespace...}$(...) ;
    62966351\end{cfa}
    62976352requiring arbitrary whitespace look-ahead for the routine-call parameter-list to disambiguate.
     
    63016356The remaining cases are with the increment/decrement operators and conditional expression, \eg:
    63026357\begin{cfa}
    6303 i++?§\color{red}\textvisiblespace...§(...);
    6304 i?++§\color{red}\textvisiblespace...§(...);
     6358i++?$\R{\textvisiblespace...}$(...);
     6359i?++$\R{\textvisiblespace...}$(...);
    63056360\end{cfa}
    63066361requiring arbitrary whitespace look-ahead for the operator parameter-list, even though that interpretation is an incorrect expression (juxtaposed identifiers).
    63076362Therefore, it is necessary to disambiguate these cases with a space:
    63086363\begin{cfa}
    6309 i++§\color{red}\textvisiblespace§? i : 0;
    6310 i?§\color{red}\textvisiblespace§++i : 0;
     6364i++$\R{\textvisiblespace}$? i : 0;
     6365i?$\R{\textvisiblespace}$++i : 0;

     6442char * q = expr ? "abc" : "de"; $\C{// valid in C, invalid in \CFA}$
    63886443\end{cfa}
    63896444The type of a string literal is changed from ©[] char© to ©const [] char©.
     
    63926447\begin{cfa}

    63956450\end{cfa}
    63966451The same problem occurs when passing a string literal to a routine that changes its argument.

     6463int i = 0; $\C{// definition}$
    64096464\end{cfa}
    64106465is valid in C, and invalid in \CFA because duplicate overloaded object definitions at the same scope level are disallowed.

    64426497In C, the name of the nested types belongs to the same scope as the name of the outermost enclosing structure, \ie the nested types are hoisted to the scope of the outer-most type, which is not useful and confusing.
     
    64556510\item[Difficulty of converting:] Semantic transformation. To make the struct type name visible in the scope of the enclosing struct, the struct tag could be declared in the scope of the enclosing struct, before the enclosing struct is defined. Example:

    6457 struct Y; §\C{// struct Y and struct X are at the same scope}§
     6512struct Y; $\C{// struct Y and struct X are at the same scope}$

    65876642For the prescribed head-files, \CFA uses header interposition to wraps these includes in an ©extern "C"©;
    6588 hence, names in these include files are not mangled\index{mangling!name} (see~\VRef{s:Interoperability}).
     6643hence, names in these include files are not mangled\index{mangling!name} \see{\VRef{s:Interoperability}}.
    65896644All other C header files must be explicitly wrapped in ©extern "C"© to prevent name mangling.
    65906645This approach is different from \Index*[C++]{\CC{}} where the name-mangling issue is handled internally in C header-files through checks for preprocessor variable ©__cplusplus©, which adds appropriate ©extern "C"© qualifiers.
     
    66496704Type-safe allocation is provided for all C allocation routines and new \CFA allocation routines, \eg in
