We have -mixin now, so I guess we can close this (considering Andrei's
suggested tool out of scope for this issue).

That would be an interesting project. I'm envisioning it as a standalone
program called e.g. "dlower" that lowers D code into a smaller subset of D.
Possible flags for that program:

--expand-mixins = expand all possible mixins in the code

--lookup = execute lookup on all symbols and write the full symbol, e.g.
writeln becomes .std.stdio.writeln

--operators = explicitate all user-defined operators, e.g. a + b becomes
a.opBinary!"+"(b)

--omit-function-bodies = do not output function bodies, .di style

--specialize-templates = write specialized versions for all templates used
within the module (this is likely to be tricky)

--scope = lower all scope statements into try statements

--foreach = lower all foreach statements into for statements

--explicit-import = specify the exact symbols needed for each import statement
(which means: if no symbols, the import is redundant - easy to mark as a
warning by a subsequent tool)

--static-if = evaluate all static ifs possible (this mostly makes sense if
--specialize-templates is also present)

--versions = lower code using version(), i.e. make the unused branch disappear

--omit-comments = make all comments disappear

--omit-nondoc-comments = make only non-documentation comments disappear

--ctfe = evaluate all possible CTFEs (tricky)

The tool should generate compilable D code with the same semantics as the input
and #line directives pointing to the input.

Such a tool would make possible a bunch of others. I'll talk to the graduate
students, maybe someone will take this.

Just don't such switch "partial compilation" because in computer science
"partial compilation" or "partial evaluation" mean something different for
compilations:

I also find this usefull and in the absence of such feature currently use
expression dumping (exp->toChars()) during IR stage -
https://github.com/mxfm/dmd/compare/patched, but Don's way is probably better.

Not really usable for debugging anything except the glue layer.

According to Walter, dmd has a --b flag (purportedly only in debug builds?)
that prints the expression trees sent to the backend. Not quite preprocessed D
code per se, but close enough for debugging purposes.

Created an attachment (id=839)
write mixin expansions to file

Here it is against svn 780.

Usage is: dmd test.d -mixin=mixins.d

What's missing is the instantiation backtrace for the line numbers in the error
messages, but the resulting mixin file shows the source line number of the
instantiation in a comment.

Some time ago, I have been playing around with a patch to dmd that would dunp
any mixin expansion into a file passed on the command line. After compilation,
you could look them up, but even better, you can single step through the code
with a debugger (at least, if there are line feeds in the mixin). 

Another benefit: source line numbers in mixins do not overlap with the source
code after the mixin anymore, but the patch was not good enough to show the
place of instantiation in an error message.

If there is interest, I can dig it up and create a diff to current svn.

Agreed, I actually use this a lot when debugging backend bugs.
What I do is modify FuncDeclaration::toObjFile() in glue.c.
To do it properly would require a (fairly simple) pass over the syntax tree,
but the function case one is the most important by far. As you can see, it's
very simple.
Incidentally, when properly implemented, this feature would bring us much of
the way towards having a C backend.


//printf("'%s' is SCfastpar\n",sp->Sident);
}
}
}
+ if (!parent->isDeclaration()) {
+   printf("%s ", ((TypeFunction *)(func->type))->next->toChars());
+   printf("%s(%s)\n{\n %s}\n\n", func->toChars(),
+parameters?parameters->toChars() : "",
+func->fbody->toChars());
+ }
if (func->fbody)
{   block *b;
Blockx bx;
Statement *sbody;

localgot = NULL;

sbody = func->fbody;
