- Splitting the two instances of CheckArgument. The template version is now always defined in base/exception.h and is available in a cvc4_public header. This version has lost its variadic version (due to swig not supporting va_list's). The CPP macro version has been renamed PrettyCheckArgument. (Taking suggestions for a better name.) This is now only defined in base/cvc4_assert.h. Only use this in cvc4_private headers and in .cpp files that can use cvc4_private headers. To use a variadic version of CheckArguments, outside of this scope, you need to duplicate this macro locally. See cvc3_compat.cpp for an example.
- Making fitsSignedInt() and fitsUnsignedInt() work more robustly for CLN on 32 bit systems.
- Refactoring ArrayStoreAll to avoid potential problems with circular header inclusions.
- Changing some headers to use iosfwd when possible.

What to Know As a User:
A number of files have moved. Users that include files in the public API in more refined ways than using #include <cvc4.h> should consult which files have moved. Note though that some files may move again after being cleaned up. A number of small tweaks have been made to the swig interfaces that may cause issues. Please file bug reports for any problems.
The Problem:
The build order of CVC4 used to be [roughly] specified as:
options < expr < util < libcvc4 < parsers < main
Each of these had their own directories and their own Makefile.am files. With the exception of the util/ directory, each of the subdirectories built exactly one convenience library. The util/ directory additionally built a statistics library. While the order above was partially correct, the build order was more complicated as options/Makefile.am executed building the sources for expr/Makefile.am as part of its BUILT_SOURCES phase. This options/Makefile.am also build the options/h and options.cpp files in other directories. There were cyclical library dependencies between the first four above libraries. All of these aspects combined to make options extremely brittle and hard to develop. Maintaining these between clang versus gcc, and bazel versus autotools has become increasing unpredictable.
The Solution:
To address these cyclic build problems, I am simplifying the build process. Here are the main things that have to happen:
1. util/ will be split into 3 separate directories: base, util, and smt_util. Each will have their own library and Makefile.am file.
2. Dependencies for options/ will be moved into options/. If a type appears as an option, this file will be moved into options.
3. All of the old options_handlers.h files have been refactored.
4. Some files have moved from util into expr/ to resolve cycles. Some of these moves are temporary.
5. I am removing the libstatistics library.
The constraints that the CVC4 build system will eventually satisfy are:
- The include order for both the .h and .cpp files for a directory must respect the order libraries are built. For example, a file in options/ cannot include from the expr/ directory. This includes built source files such as those coming from */kinds files and */options files.
- The types definitions must also respect the build order. Forward type declarations will be allowed in exceptional, justified cases.
- The Makefile.am for a directory cannot generate a file outside of the directory it controls. (Or call another Makefile.am except through subdirectory calls.)
- One library per Makefile.am.
- No extra copies of libraries will be built for the purpose of distinguishing between external and internal visibility in libraries for building parser/ or main/ libraries and binaries. Any function used by parser/ and main/ will be labeled with CVC4_PUBLIC and be in a public API. (AFAICT, libstatistics was being built exactly to skirt this.)
The build order of CVC4 can now be [roughly] specified as
base < options < util < expr < smt_util < libcvc4 < parsers < main
The distinction between "base < options < util < expr" are currently clean. The relationship between expr and the subsequent directories/libraries are not yet clean.
More details about the directories:
base/
The new directory base/ contains the shared utilities that are absolutely crucial to starting cvc4. The list currently includes just: cvc4_assert.{h,cpp}, output.{h,cpp}, exception.{h,cpp}, and tls.{h, h.in, cpp}. These are things that are required everywhere.
options/
The options/ directory is self contained.
- It contains all of the enums that appear as options. This includes things like theory/bv/bitblast_mode.h .
- There are exactly 4 classes that handled currently using forward declarations currently to this: LogicInfo, LemmaInputChannel, LemmaOutputChannel, and CommandSequence. These will all be removed from options.
- Functionality of the options_handlers.h files has been moved into smt/smt_options_handler.h. The options library itself only uses an interface class defined in options/options_handler_interface.h. We are now using virtual dispatch to avoid using inlined functions as was previously done.
- The */options_handlers.h files have been removed.
- The generated smt/smt_options.cpp file has been be replaced by pushing the functionality that was generated into: options/options_handler_{get,set}_option_template.cpp . The non-generated functionality was moved into smt_engine.cpp.
- All of the options files have been moved from their directories into options/. This means includes like theory/arith/options.h have changed to change to options/arith_options.h .
util/
The util/ directory continues to contain core utility classes that may be used [almost] everywhere. The exception is that these are not used by options/ or base/. This includes things like rational and integer. These may not use anything in expr/ or libcvc4. A number of files have been moved out of this directory as they have cyclic dependencies graph with exprs and types. The build process up to this directory is currently clean.
expr/
The expr/ directory continues to be the home of expressions. The major change is files moving from util/ moving into expr/. The reason for this is that these files form a cycle with files in expr/.
- An example is datatype.h. This includes "expr/expr.h", "expr/type.h" while "expr/command.h" includes datatype.h.
- Another example is predicate.h. This uses expr.h and is also declared in a kinds file and thus appears in kinds.h.
- The rule of thumb is if expr/ pulls it in it needs to be independent of expr/, in which case it is in util/, or it is not, in which case it is pulled into expr/.
- Some files do not have a strong justification currently. Result, ResourceManager and SExpr can be moved back into util/ once the iostream manipulation routines are refactored out of the Node and Expr classes.
- Note the kinds files are expected to remain in the theory/ directories. These are only read in order to build sources.
- This directory is not yet clean. It contains forward references into libcvc4 such as the printer. It also makes some classes used by main/ and parser CVC4_PUBLIC.
smt_util/
The smt_util/ directory contains those utility classes which require exprs, but expr/ does not require them. These are mostly utilities for working with expressions and nodes. Examples include ite_removal.h, LemmaInputChannel and LemmaOutputChannel.
What is up next:
- A number of new #warning "TODO: ..." items have been scattered throughout the code as reminders to myself. Help with these issues is welcomed.
- The expr/ directory needs to be cleaned up in a similar to options/. Before this happens statistics needs to be cleaned up.

just the header comments at the top, though. Don't update to this rev if
you don't have time for a complete rebuild, and exclude this rev if you
want to see what's new across a range of commits.
(this commit was certified error- and warning-free by the test-and-commit script.)

* Internal uses of CheckArgument changed to AssertArgument/AlwaysAssertArgument()
* Make util/Assert.h cvc4_private instead of public, so AssertionException and friends are now internal-only
* CheckArgument() throws non-AssertionException
* things outside the core library (parsers, driver) use regular C-style assert,
or a public exception type.
* auto-generated documentation for Smt options and internal options
Also, a small fix to SMT-LIBv1 QF_ABV and QF_AUFBV definitions, which were nonstandard.

documentation, etc.).
* Remove sat_module.cpp, which was no longer used (was previously refactored?)

Replace all cardinality comparison functions <=, ==, !=, >=, <, >, with a single compare() function that can return UNKNOWN in the case of unknown (or large-finite and thus not *precisely* known) cardinalities.

* with a patched SWIG, the ocaml bindings build correctly.
** I will provide my patch to the SWIG dev team.
* fixed some class interfaces to play more nicely with SWIG.
* php, perl, tcl now work; examples added.
* improved binding module building and installation.
Also:
Stop #defining NULL ((void*) 0). This has been in cvc4_public.h for
a long, long time, I forget why I added it in the first place, and
it's a very, very bad idea. In C++, certain things are permitted
for NULL that aren't permitted for ((void*) 0), like for instance
implicit conversion to any pointer type. We didn't see an issue
here (until now, when interfacing with SWIG), because GCC is usually
pretty smart at working around such a broken #definition of NULL.
But that's fragile.
New exception-free Command architecture. Previously, some command
invocations were wrapped in a try {} catch() {} and printed out an
error. This is much more consistent now. Each Command invocation
results in a CommandStatus. The status can be "unsupported",
"error", or "success" (these are each derived classes, though, not
strings, so that they can be easily printed in a language-specific
way... e.g., in SMT-LIBv2, they are printed in a manner consistent
with the spec, and "success" is not printed if the print-success
option is off.) All Command functionality are now no-throw
functions, which @cconway reports is a Good Thing for Google
(where all C++ exceptions are suspect), and also I think is much
cleaner than the old way in this instance.
Added an --smtlib2 option that enables an "SMT-LIBv2 compliance
mode"---really it just sets a few other options like strictParsing,
inputLanguage, and printSuccess. In the future we might put other
options into a compliance mode, or we might choose to make it the
default.

linking. Enable with --enable-language-bindings=java

Dumping infrastructure. Can dump preprocessed queries and clauses. Can
also dump queries (for testing with another solver) to see if any conflicts
are missed, T-propagations are missed, all lemmas are T-valid, etc. For a
full list of options see --dump=help.
CUDD building much cleaner.
Documentation and assertion fixes.
Printer improvements, printing of commands in language-defined way, etc.
Typechecker stuff in expr package now autogenerated, no need to manually
edit the expr package when adding a new theory.
CVC3 compatibility layer (builds as libcompat).
SWIG detection and language binding support (infrastructure).
Support for some Z3 extended commands (like datatypes) in SMT-LIBv2 mode
(when not in compliance mode).
Copyright and file headers regenerated.

branch)
* add Theory::isSharedTermFact() -- it currently always returns false,
pending theory combination work
* Add "unknown" cardinalities to Cardinality class
* Fix run_regression script to handle CRLF line terminators on Macs
(where sed is non-GNU)
* Convert CRLF line terminators in datatypes regressions to LF
|

* Type::getCardinality() returns the cardinality for for all types.
Theories give a cardinality in the their kinds file. For
cardinalities that depend on a type argument, a "cardinality
computer" function is named in the kinds file, which takes a
TypeNode and returns its cardinality.
* There's a bitmap for the set of "active theories" in the
TheoryEngine. Theories become "active" when a term that is owned by
them, or whose type is owned by them, is pre-registered (run CVC4
with --verbose to see theory activation). Non-active theories don't
get any calls for check() or propagate() or anything, and if we're
running in single-theory mode, the shared term manager doesn't have
to get involved. This is really important for get() performance
(which can only skimp on walking the entire sub-DAG only if the
theory doesn't require it AND the shared term manager doesn't
require it).
* TheoryEngine now does not call presolve(), registerTerm(),
notifyRestart(), etc., on a Theory if that theory doesn't declare
that property in its kinds file. To avoid coding errors,
mktheorytraits greps the theory header and gives warnings if:
+ the theory appears to declare one of the functions (check,
propagate, etc.) that isn't listed among its kinds file properties
(but probably should be)
+ the theory appears NOT to declare one of the functions listed in
its kinds file properties
* some bounded token stream work
