Module Std.Type_error

BIL type errors.

Not all syntactically correct expressions make sense. A well-formed expression that doesn't have defined semantics is called an ill-typed expression. We further distinguish between different ill-typed expression to help the error diagnosis.

A bad_mem ill-typed expression is an expression that during the evaluation may load or store from a bitvector.

A bad_imm ill-typed expression is an expression that during the evaluation may apply a integer operation on a storage value.

A bad_type ~exp:t ~got:u ill-typed expression may evaluate an expression of type u, where an expression of type t is expected. For example, when a load address is evaluated to a type that is different from a type of the memory index, or when an integer operation is applied to expressions of different types.

Finally, a bad_cast expression is an expression that may evaluate a bitvector of improper size or when a cast arguments of a cast expression doesn't make sense.

BIL type is regular

type t = Type.Error.t
include Core_kernel.Bin_prot.Binable.S with type t := t
include Ppx_sexp_conv_lib.Sexpable.S with type t := t
exception T of t
val bad_mem : t

bad_mem error occurs when a value of type mem was expected

val bad_imm : t

bad_imm error occurs when a value of type imm was expected

val bad_cast : t

bad_cast error occurs when parameters to the cast operation are not valid, or if a store operand is not of a word size

val bad_type : exp:typ -> got:typ -> t

bad_type ~exp ~got error happens when we expect a value of type exp but got a value of type got.

val expect_mem : unit -> 'a

expect_mem () raises T bad_mem

val expect_imm : unit -> 'a

expect_imm () raises T bad_imm

val wrong_cast : unit -> 'a

wrong_cast () raises T bad_cast

val expect : typ -> got:typ -> 'a

expect t ~got:u raises T (bap_type ~exp:t ~got:t)

val to_string : t -> string

to_string x returns a human-readable representation of x

val str : unit -> t -> string

str () t is formatted output function that matches "%a" conversion format specifier in functions, that prints to string, e.g., sprintf, failwithf, errorf and, surprisingly all Lwt printing function, including Lwt_io.printf and logging (or any other function with type ('a,unit,string,...) formatN`. Example:

Or_error.errorf "type %a is not valid for %a"
  Type.str ty Exp.str exp
val pps : unit -> t -> string

synonym for str

val ppo : Core_kernel.Out_channel.t -> t -> unit

will print to a standard output_channel, useful for using in printf, fprintf, etc.

val pp_seq : Stdlib.Format.formatter -> t Core_kernel.Sequence.t -> unit

prints a sequence of values of type t

this will include pp function from Core that has type t printer, and can be used in Format.printf family of functions

type info = string * [ `Ver of string ] * string option

name,Ver v,desc information attached to a particular reader or writer.

val version : string

Data representation version. After any change in data representation the version should be increased.

Serializers that are derived from a data representation must have the same version as a version of the data structure, from which it is derived. This kind of serializers can only read and write data of the same version.

Other serializers can actually read and write data independent on its representation version. A serializer, that can't store data of current version simply shouldn't be added to a set of serializers.

It is assumed, that if a reader and a writer has the same name and version, then whatever was written by the writer should be readable by the reader. The round-trip equality is not required, thus it is acceptable if some information is lost.

It is also possible, that a reader and a writer that has the same name are compatible. In that case it is recommended to use semantic versioning.

val size_in_bytes : ?ver:string -> ?fmt:string -> t -> int
