Deprecated ProjectCompiler::verify

Next up, let's talk about the deprecated ProjectCompiler::verify field and method. This change simplifies the compiler by removing a redundant flag. Here's the class diagram:

classDiagram
    class ProjectCompiler {
        +project_root: PathBuf
        -verify: Option<bool> (removed)
        +print_names: Option<bool>
        +print_sizes: Option<bool>
        +quiet: Option<bool>
        +new()
        -verify(yes: bool) (removed)
        +print_names(yes: bool)
        +print_sizes(yes: bool)
        +quiet(yes: bool)
    }

The ProjectCompiler class is responsible for compiling the Solidity code. The verify field and its setter method have been removed to simplify the compiler’s logic.

Key Changes:
- -verify: Option<bool> (removed): The verify field, which was an option to enable or disable verification, has been removed.
- -verify(yes: bool) (removed): The setter method for the verify field has also been removed.

Updated SourceFiles and SourceAnalysis

Moving on, let’s discuss the updates to SourceFiles and SourceAnalysis. These changes enhance how source files are managed and analyzed.

classDiagram
    class SourceFiles {
        +sources: HashMap<u32, PathBuf>
    }
    class SourceAnalysis {
        +new(data: SourceFiles, output: ProjectCompileOutput)
    }
    SourceAnalysis --> SourceFiles

SourceFiles

The SourceFiles class now maintains a map of source IDs to file paths. It’s like having a well-organized directory of all the case files.

Key Attributes:
- sources: A HashMap that maps a u32 source ID to a PathBuf file path. This allows quick lookup of file paths by their ID.

SourceAnalysis

The SourceAnalysis class is responsible for analyzing the source code and generating coverage data.

Key Attributes:
- new(data: SourceFiles, output: ProjectCompileOutput): The constructor now takes SourceFiles and ProjectCompileOutput as arguments. This provides the analysis class with the necessary data for coverage analysis.

Updated CoverageItem and CoverageItemKind

Now, let's explore the updates to CoverageItem and CoverageItemKind. These changes focus on improving ordering and formatting.

classDiagram
    class CoverageItemKind {
        <<enum>>
        Line
        Statement
        Branch
        Function
        +ord_key()
        +PartialEq
        +Eq
        +PartialOrd
        +Ord
    }
    class CoverageItem {
        +kind: CoverageItemKind
        +loc: SourceLocation
        +hits: u32
        +ord_key()
        +PartialEq
        +Eq
        +PartialOrd
        +Ord
        +fmt_with_source(src: Option<str>)
    }
    CoverageItem --> CoverageItemKind

CoverageItemKind

The CoverageItemKind enum now derives PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, and Ord, allowing for easy comparison and sorting.

Key Methods:
- ord_key(): Generates a key for sorting coverage item kinds. This helps in prioritizing different types of coverage items.

CoverageItem

The CoverageItem class also derives PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, and Ord for sorting. Additionally, the fmt_with_source method is enhanced to include source code snippets.

Key Methods:
- ord_key(): Generates a key for sorting coverage items.
- fmt_with_source(src: Option<str>): Formats the coverage item with source code context, making it easier to understand the coverage results.

Updated Display Implementations

Finally, let's cover the updated display implementations for ContractId, ItemAnchor, CoverageItem, and SourceLocation. These changes improve how these objects are displayed, making the output more readable.

classDiagram
    class ContractId {
        +contract_name: Arc<str>
        +fmt(f: &mut fmt::Formatter)
    }
    class ItemAnchor {
        +instruction: u32
        +item_id: u32
        +fmt(f: &mut fmt::Formatter)
    }
    class CoverageItem {
        +fmt(f: &mut fmt::Formatter)
        +fmt_with_source(src: Option<str>)
    }
    class SourceLocation {
        +fmt(f: &mut fmt::Formatter)
    }

The fmt methods for these classes are updated to provide more detailed and readable output. For example, CoverageItem now uses fmt_with_source to include source code snippets, making it easier to see what part of the code is being covered.
