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_txtfun 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. \begin{readmore} For more information about options of document antiquotations see \rsccite{sec:antiq}). \end{readmore} 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.*}end
