Usually one uses Splice with LogicalItemExpression wrapping a logical variable.
Using LogicalDataForm wrapping same variable makes Splice unnecessary.
In order to keep code readable these are wrapped again in a cons list.
In general, one should avoid using bare LogicalDataForm, as these are
indistiguishable from normal LogicalVariable.
Expand macro supports dispatching by concept.
Logical variables declared on macro's body are init'ed in apply method.
Enable the hack to ensure dependencies on macro input are tracked.
Macro table can extend another macro table. All prototype template
declarations are imported automatically.
The editor now substitutes default values when entering new
expand macro/constraint filling the slots provided by the prototype.
Expand macro does not require name.
Minor editor improvements.
Expand macro template must have declaration of logicals matching
exactly the logical declarations in the prototype.
Can't refer to logicals declared directly in the prototype.
Parameters can be specified for call macro only.
Logicals can be specified for expand and call macro.
Expand macro params are treated exactly as "context"
parameters.
The old expand/call constructs are to be replaced by these.
Expand macro constraint refers to a named prototype, which
is specified in a macro table for matching concept.
Call macro constraint refers directly to a macro template.
Contex parameters are to be retired and explicit
parameters to expand macro constraint are to be used instead.
ExpandMacroTemplate to be used for dispatching macro invocations
based on the concept of the specified node.
Prototype is an abstraction to be implemented by
specific templates.
Call macros are to be parameterized with logicals and other parameters.
To replace combined expand/call macros causing confusion.
Context parameters to be passed explicitly.
Modified TYPECHECK query to include "checkingScope" query parameter:
it is a root node for which program is generated (for local typechecking it's local node).
Rules additionally match on a constraint `checkDecls(node<>)` bearing this node,
so while rules will be generated for all scopes, only those in applicable scopes will run.
Also split rule for EnumConstantDeclaration on declration checking and just typing rule.
UnitTypecheckingCacheHolder now holds the data needed for ChangesTrackers.
This data is updated by UpdatesRecorder: different models and nodes from different roots are tracked.
ExpressionLogicalVariable is replaced with ExpressionItem wrapping
the same expression.
Fixes ensure correct application of transformations.
Late expression can't be used as "placeholder" logical item.
This expression is to be used in those rare cases
when a logical var is to be passed to an external method.
Not available within EvaluationSetting (new marker interface).
Normally logical variable (as an instance of LogicalItem)
is only to be used within a logical context.
Logical item value expr only to contain a logical variable.
SNode is supported now directly as an argument to constraint/predicate.
Pointer operation is no longer necessary, as is node-ptr<> type for logical vars.
