Along the way, I also converted many "for (;;)" loops into modern
"for (:)" loops. I didn't systematically look for all opportunities
to do this, though. I merely made this change where I was already
converting raw Iterator uses into modern Iterator<...> uses.
Better use of generics also allowed many casts to become statically
redundant. I have removed all such redundant casts.
Only three raw-types warnings remain after this batch of fixes. All
three involve raw uses of CallGraphBuilder. I've tried to fix these
too, but it quickly snowballs into a cascade of changes that may or
may not eventually reach a statically-type-save fixed point. I may
give these last few problem areas another go in the future. For now,
though, the hundreds of other fixes seem worth keeping even if there
are a few stragglers.
This commit may change some public APIs, but only by making weaker
type signatures stronger by replacing raw types with generic types.
For example, we may change something like "Set" into "Set<String>",
but we're not adding new arguments, changing any
underlying (post-generics-erasure) types, etc.
1) Structural changes in the AstTranslator to allow retranslation and generation of custom IR. This is mostly moving state from the translator itself into the context.
2) Some refactoring to share some AST generation code across the Java and JavaScript front ends.
3) Switching to the latest Rhino, release 1.7R3; this is a pervasive change to the JavaScript Rhino translator, since it involves switching to the new AST interface in Rhino.
4) Common code to, as an option, translate Do-style loops by replicating the loop body. This allows the use of CAstNode.LOOP forms for such loops.
5) Some bug fixes to the mechanisms of the CAstRewriter to handle weird control flow cases.
6) An example of retranslation to specialize JavaScript methods based on how many arguments they receive at call sites.
