Summary | 0000405: Compiler Software Exception in Certain Projects | ||||||||||||
Description | Trying to build my project MEdit, I run into the following error: Uncaught Mercury exception: Software Error: check_hlds.cse_detection: predicate `check_hlds.cse_detection.detect_cse_in_proc'/4: Unexpected: mode check fails when repeated I had thought this was only an issue with Mercury 14, but it seems to occur with the newest ROTD as well. | ||||||||||||
Steps To Reproduce | Download the MEdit sources from https://github.com/FlyingJester/medit Run either just `make` (which requires yasm) or `make medit_mercury` | ||||||||||||
Additional Information | I'm not really sure if this is actually an error in the compiler or in my own code, but if it is in my code the error reporting could be much improved. | ||||||||||||

The code relies on nested unique modes, which are not supported. This is a known limitation. In this case it seems to be compounded by another mode error in your code, in the use of SizeIn+0 as an input parameter. (Edit: disregard that last sentence.) The compiler fails to report the problem accurately. What is the purpose of writing SizeIn+0 instead of just SizeIn? |

The purpose is to allow a unique output which is partially composed of a non-unique integer input. What do you mean by nested unique modes? |

By nested unique modes I mean modes for structured terms in which the uniqueness of the subterms is significant. That includes being partially composed of a non-unique term, as is the case in what you are attempting. Is the bug report just that the compiler throws an exception instead of giving a spurious mode error, as it says in the reference manual? |

This bug report is simply that the compiler throws an exception. |

Confirm that this is a bug. The compiler should give a proper error message when attempting to use nested unique modes. Note that the feature itself is officially NYI. |
