In the following code, it's not safe for the field `C._f` to undergo
type promotion, because a variable with static type `C` might have
type `D` at runtime, in which case `C._f` will get dispatched to
`noSuchMethod`, which is not guaranteed to return a stable result.
class C {
final int? _f;
}
class D implements C {
noSuchMethod(_) => ...;
}
foo(C c) {
if (c._f != null) {
print(c._f + 1); // UNSAFE!
}
}
Therefore, in order to determine which fields are promotable, the
implementations need to analyze enough of the class hierarchy to
figure out which field accesses might get dispatched to
`noSuchMethod`.
Currently, the CFE does this by following its usual algorithm for
generating `noSuchMethod` forwarders before trying to determine which
fields are promotable. The analyzer, on the other hand, doesn't have
an algorithm for generating `noSuchMethod` forwarders (since it
doesn't implement execution semantics); so instead it has its own
logic to figure out when a `noSuchMethod` forwarder is needed for a
field, and disable promotion for that field.
But there's a chicken-and-egg problem in the CFE: the CFE needs to
determine which fields are promotable before doing top-level inference
(since the initializers of top-level fields might make use of field
promotion, affecting their inferred types--see #50522). But it doesn't
decide where `noSuchMethod` forwarders are needed until after
top-level inference (because the same phase that generates
`noSuchMethod` forwarders also generates forwarders that do runtime
covariant type-checking, and so it has to run after all top level
types have been inferred).
To fix the chicken-and-egg problem, I plan to rework the CFE so that
it uses the same algorithm as the analyzer to determine which fields
are promotable. This CL makes a first step towards that goal, by
reworking the analyzer's field promotability algorithm into a form
where it can be shared with the CFE, and moving it to
`package:_fe_analyzer_shared`. Since this required a fairly
substantial rewrite, I went ahead and fixed #52938 in the process.
Fixes #52938.

Dart
A client-optimized language for fast apps on any platform
Dart is:
-
Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation.
-
Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app.
-
Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web.
Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:
-
Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.
-
Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
