Jens Johansen adb1dc9380 [VM] [CFE]: Make VM send over type information for expression compilation
Missing:
* Function types.
* Type variables in bounds, like "method<T, S extends T>() {}" and
  "method<T extends Foo<T>>() {}"

This is in many ways a follow-up to
https://dart-review.googlesource.com/c/sdk/+/212286

TEST=service and (cfe) expression suite tests added.

README.md [frontend_server] add API stability documentatioon 2020-12-03 19:28:13 +00:00

The frontend_server package is used by both the flutter command line tool and the frontend_server_client package (used by webdev and package:test).

API Stability

Changes to the command line API or behavior should be tested against the follwing test suites (in addition to normal HHH testing):

Otherwise these changes will need to be carefully coordinated with the flutter tooling and frontend_server_client teams.

This API stability does not cover any of the source code APIs.

Stable subset

  • The frontend_server kernel compilation and expression evaluation for kernel should be considered "stable".
  • The frontend_server JavaScript compilation is semi-stable, but clients should anticipate coordinated breaking changes in the future.
  • The frontend_server JavaScript expression evaluation is experimental and is expected to change significantly from Dec 2020 through the end of 2021.
  • Specific flags like the --flutter-widget-cache may be added for experimentation and should not be considered stable.
