{\bf Problem:} + −
How to keep your ML-code inside a document synchronised with the actual code?\smallskip+ −
+ −
{\bf Solution:} This can be achieved using document antiquotations.\smallskip+ −
+ −
Document antiquotations can be used for ensuring consistent type-setting of+ −
various entities in a document. They can also be used for sophisticated+ −
\LaTeX-hacking. If you type @{text "Ctrl-c Ctrl-a h A"} inside ProofGeneral, you+ −
obtain a list of all currently available document antiquotations and their options.+ −
You obtain the same list on the ML-level by typing+ −
+ −
@{ML [display,gray] "ThyOutput.print_antiquotations ()"}+ −
+ −
Below we give the code for two additional document antiquotations that can+ −
be used to typeset ML-code and also to check whether the given code actually+ −
compiles. This provides a sanity check for the code and also allows one to+ −
keep documents in sync with other code, for example Isabelle.+ −
+ −
We first describe the antiquotation @{text "ML_checked"} with the syntax:+ −
+ −
@{text [display] "@{ML_checked \"a_piece_of_code\"}"}+ −
+ −
The code is checked by sending the ML-expression @{text [quotes] "val _ =+ −
a_piece_of_code"} to the ML-compiler (i.e.~the function @{ML+ −
"ML_Context.eval_in"} in Line 4 below). The complete code of the+ −
document antiquotation is as follows:+ −
+ −
*}+ −
+ −
ML%linenosgray{*fun ml_val code_txt = "val _ = " ^ code_txt+ −
+ −
fun output_ml {context = ctxt, ...} code_txt =+ −
(ML_Context.eval_in (SOME ctxt) false Position.none (ml_val code_txt); + −
ThyOutput.output (map Pretty.str (space_explode "\n" code_txt)))+ −
+ −
val _ = ThyOutput.antiquotation "ML_checked" (Scan.lift Args.name) output_ml*}+ −
+ −
text {*+ −
The parser @{ML "(Scan.lift Args.name)"} in line 9 parses a string, in this+ −
case the code. As mentioned before, the code is sent to the ML-compiler in+ −
the line 4 using the function @{ML ml_val}, which constructs the appropriate+ −
ML-expression. If the code is ``approved'' by the compiler, then the output+ −
function @{ML "ThyOutput.output"} in the next line pretty prints the+ −
code. This function expects that the code is a list of (pretty)strings where+ −
each string correspond to a line in the output. Therefore the use of @{ML+ −
"(space_explode \"\\n\" txt)" for txt} which produces this list according to+ −
linebreaks. There are a number of options for antiquotations that are+ −
observed by @{ML ThyOutput.output} when printing the code (including @{text+ −
"[display]"} and @{text "[quotes]"}). Line 7 sets up the new document+ −
antiquotation.+ −

Since we used the argument @{ML "Position.none"}, the compiler cannot give specific + −
information about the line number, in case an error is detected. We + −
can improve the code above slightly by writing + −
*}+ −
+ −
ML%linenosgray{*fun output_ml {context = ctxt, ...} (code_txt, pos) =+ −
(ML_Context.eval_in (SOME ctxt) false pos (ml_val code_txt);+ −
ThyOutput.output (map Pretty.str (space_explode "\n" code_txt)))+ −
+ −
val _ = ThyOutput.antiquotation "ML_checked"+ −
(Scan.lift (OuterParse.position Args.name)) output_ml *}+ −
+ −
text {*+ −
where in Lines 1 and 2 the positional information is properly treated. The+ −
parser @{ML OuterParse.position} encodes the positional information in the + −
result.+ −
+ −
We can now write in a document @{text "@{ML_checked \"2 + 3\"}"} in order to+ −
obtain @{ML_checked "2 + 3"} and be sure that this code compiles until+ −
somebody changes the definition of \mbox{@{ML "(op +)"}}.+ −
+ −
+ −
The second document antiquotation we describe extends the first by a pattern+ −
that specifies what the result of the ML-code should be and check the+ −
consistency of the actual result with the given pattern. For this we are+ −
going to implement the document antiquotation+ −
+ −
+ −
@{text [display] "@{ML_resp \"a_piece_of_code\" \"a_pattern\"}"}+ −
+ −
To add some convenience and also to deal with large outputs, the user can+ −
give a partial specification inside the pattern by giving abbreviations of+ −
the form @{text [quotes] "\<dots>"}. For example @{text "(\<dots>, \<dots>)"} for specifying a+ −
pair.+ −
+ −
In the document antiquotation @{text "@{ML_checked \"piece_of_code\"}"}+ −
above we have sent the expression @{text [quotes] "val _ = piece_of_code"}+ −
to the compiler, now instead the wildcard @{text "_"} we will be replaced by+ −
the given pattern. To do this we need to replace in the input the @{text+ −
[quotes] "\<dots>"} by @{text [quotes] "_"} before sending the code to the+ −
compiler. The following function will do this:+ −
*}+ −
+ −
ML{*fun ml_pat (code_txt, pat) =+ −
let val pat' = + −
implode (map (fn "\<dots>" => "_" | s => s) (Symbol.explode pat))+ −
in + −
"val " ^ pat' ^ " = " ^ code_txt + −
end*}+ −
+ −
text {* + −
Next we like to add a response indicator to the result using:+ −
*}+ −
+ −
+ −
ML{*fun add_resp pat = map (fn s => "> " ^ s) pat*}+ −
+ −
text {* + −
The rest of the code of the document antiquotation is+ −
*}+ −
+ −
ML{*fun output_ml_resp {context = ctxt, ...} ((code_txt, pat), pos) = + −
(ML_Context.eval_in (SOME ctxt) false pos (ml_pat (code_txt, pat));+ −
let + −
val output1 = space_explode "\n" code_txt + −
val output2 = add_resp (space_explode "\n" pat)+ −
in + −
ThyOutput.output (map Pretty.str (output1 @ output2)) + −
end)+ −
+ −
val _ = ThyOutput.antiquotation "ML_resp" + −
(Scan.lift (OuterParse.position (Args.name -- Args.name))) + −
output_ml_resp*}+ −
+ −
text {*+ −
This extended document antiquotation allows us to write+ −
+ −
@{text [display] "@{ML_resp [display] \"true andalso false\" \"false\"}"}+ −
+ −
to obtain+ −
+ −
@{ML_resp [display] "true andalso false" "false"} + −
+ −
or + −
+ −
@{text [display] "@{ML_resp [display] \"let val i = 3 in (i * i, \"foo\") end\" \"(9, \<dots>)\"}"}+ −
+ −
to obtain+ −
+ −
@{ML_resp [display] "let val i = 3 in (i * i, \"foo\") end" "(9, \<dots>)"} + −
+ −
In both cases, the check by the compiler ensures that code and result+ −
match. A limitation of this document antiquotation, however, is that the+ −
pattern can only be given for values that can be constructed. This excludes+ −
values that are abstract datatypes, like @{ML_type thm}s and @{ML_type cterm}s.+ −
