Changes from V7.4 ================= A revision of the standard library and of concrete syntax of Coq, including - a completely new syntax for terms coming with an automatic translator - renaming of various standard notions from French to English (esp in ZArith) - notions of the standard library are declared with (strict) implicit arguments - eq merged with eqT: old eq disappear, new eq (written =) is old eqT and new eqT is syntactic sugar for new eq (notation == is an alias for = and is written as it) - similarly, ex, ex2 and all are merged with exT, exT2 and allT. - a additional elimination Acc_iter for Acc, simplier than Acc_rect. This new elimination principle is used for definition well_founded_induction. Syntax translator - Unsafe for annotation Cases when constructors coercions are used or when annotations are eta-reduced predicates - Recursive keyword set by default (and no longer needed) in Tactic Definition Syntax for arithmetic - Notation "=" and "<>" in Z and R are no longer implicitly in Z or R (with possible introduction of a coercion), use ...=... or ...<>... instead Vernacular commands - "Declare ML Module" now allows us to import .cma files. This avoids to use a bunch of "Declare ML Module" statements when using several ML files. - "Set Printing Width n" added, allows to change the size of width printing (TODO : doc). - "Implicit Variables Type x,y:t" assigns default types for binding variables. - "Set Implicits Printing" disable printing of implicit arguments Gallina - New syntax of the form "Inductive bool : Set := true, false : bool." for enumerated types Implicit arguments - Inductive in sections declared with implicits now "discharged" with implicits (like constants and variables) - Set Implicit Arguments is strict by default in new syntax - Implicit Arguments flags are now synchronous with reset - New switch "Unset/Set Printing Implicits" to globally control printing of implicits Grammar extensions - UTF-8 encoded unicode blocks 0380-03FF (greek letters) and 2100-214F (letter-like, including aleph and double N,Z,Q,R) are supported identifiers; UTF-8 unicode blocs 2200-22FF (mathematical operators), 2A00-2AFF (supplemental mathematical operators) 2300-23FF (miscellaneous technical, including sqrt symbol), 2600-26FF (miscellaneous symbols) 2190-21FF (arrows A) and 2900-297F (arrows B) are supported symbols Library - New file about the factorial function in Arith - Variables names of iff_trans changed (source of incompatibilities) Tactic language - Fail tactic now accepts a failure message - New primitive tactic "FreshId" to generate new names Tactics - Replace can now replace proofs also - Fail levels are now decremented at "Match Context" blocks only and if the right-hand-side of "Match term With" are tactics, these tactics are never evaluated immediately and do not induce backtracking (in contrast with "Match Context") - Quantified names now avoid global names of the current module (like Intro names did) [source of rare incompatibilities: 2 changes in the set of user contribs] Bugs - Rename bug fixed (#244) - see coq-bugs server for the complete list of fixed bugs Changes from V7.3.1 to V7.4 =========================== Symbolic notations - Introduction of a notion of scope gathering notations in a consistent set; a notation sets has been developped for nat, Z and R (undocumented) - New command "Notation" for declaring notations simultaneously for parsing and printing (see chap 10 of the reference manual) - Declarations with only implicit arguments now handled (e.g. the argument of nil can be set implicit; use !nil to refer to nil without arguments) - "Print Scope sc" and "Locate ntn" allows to know to what expression a notation is bound - New defensive strategy for printing or not implicit arguments to ensure re-type-checkability of the printed term - In Grammar command, the only predefined non-terminal entries are ident, global, constr and pattern (e.g. nvar, numarg disappears); the only allowed grammar types are constr and pattern; ast and ast list are no longer supported; some incompatibilities in Grammar: when a syntax is a initial segment of an other one, Grammar does not work, use Notation Library - Lemmas in Set from Compare_dec.v (le_lt_dec, ...) and Wf_nat.v (lt_wf_rec, ...) are now transparent. This may be source of incompatibilities. - Syntactic Definitions Fst, Snd, Ex, All, Ex2, AllT, ExT, ExT2, ProjS1, ProjS2, Error, Value and Except are turned to notations. They now must be applied (incompatibilities only in unrealistic cases). - More efficient versions of Zmult and times (30% faster) - Reals: the library is now divided in 6 parts (Rbase, Rfunctions, SeqSeries, Rtrigo, Ranalysis, Integration). New tactics: Sup and RCompute. See Reals.v for details. Modules - Beta version, see doc chap 2.5 for commands and chap 5 for theory Language - Inductive definitions now accept ">" in constructor types to declare the corresponding constructor as a coercion. - Idem for assumptions declarations and constants when the type is mentionned. - The "Coercion" and "Canonical Structure" keywords now accept the same syntax as "Definition", i.e. "hyps :=c (:t)?" or "hyps :t". - Theorem-like declaration now accepts the syntax "Theorem thm [x:t;...] : u". - Remark's and Fact's now definitively behave as Theorem and Lemma: when sections are closed, the full name of a Remark or a Fact has no longer a section part (source of incompatibilities) - Opaque Local's (i.e. built by tactics and ended by Qed), do not survive section closing any longer; as a side-effect, Opaque Local's now appear in the local context of proofs; their body is hidden though (source of incompatibilities); use one of Remark/Fact/Lemma/Theorem instead to simulate the old behaviour of Local (the section part of the name is not kept though) ML tactic and vernacular commands - "Grammar tactic" and "Grammar vernac" of type "ast" are no longer supported (only "Grammar tactic simple_tactic" of type "tactic" remains available). - Concrete syntax for ML written vernacular commands and tactics is now declared at ML level using camlp4 macros TACTIC EXTEND et VERNAC COMMAND EXTEND. - "Check n c" now "n:Check c", "Eval n ..." now "n:Eval ..." - "Proof with T" (* no documentation *) - SearchAbout id - prints all theorems which contain id in their type Tactic definitions - Static globalisation of identifiers and global references (source of incompatibilities, especially, Recursive keyword is required for mutually recursive definitions). - New evaluation semantics: no more partial evaluation at definition time; evaluation of all Tactic/Meta Definition, even producing terms, expect a proof context to be evaluated (especially "()" is no longer needed). - Debugger now shows the nesting level and the reasons of failure Tactics - Equality tactics (Rewrite, Reflexivity, Symmetry, Transitivity) now understand JM equality - Simpl and Change now apply to subterms also - Double Induction now referring to hypotheses like "Intros until" - "Inversion" now applies also on quantified hypotheses (naming as for Intros until) - NewDestruct now accepts terms with missing hypotheses - NewDestruct and NewInduction now accept user-provided elimination scheme - NewDestruct and NewInduction now accept user-provided introduction names - Omega could solve goals such as ~`x=y` but failed when the hypothesis was unfolded to `x < y` -> False. This is fixed. In addition, it can also recognize 'False' in the hypothesis and use it to solve the goal. - Coercions now handled in "with" bindings - "Subst x" replaces all ocurrences of x by t in the goal and hypotheses when an hypothesis x=t or x:=t or t=x exists - Fresh names for Assert and Pose now based on collision-avoiding Intro naming strategy (exceptional source of incompatibilities) - LinearIntuition (* no documentation *) - Unfold expects a correct evaluable argument - Clear expects existing hypotheses Extraction (See details in contrib/extraction/CHANGES and README): - An experimental Scheme extraction is provided. - Concerning Ocaml, extracted code is now ensured to always type-check, thanks to automatic inserting of Obj.magic. - Experimental extraction of Coq new modules to Ocaml modules. Proof rendering in natural language - Export of theories to XML for publishing and rendering purposes now includes proof-trees (see http://www.cs.unibo.it/helm) Miscellaneous - Printing Coercion now used through the standard keywords Set/Add, Test, Print - "Print Term id" is an alias for "Print id" - New switch "Unset/Set Printing Symbols" to control printing of symbolic notations - Two new variants of implicit arguments are available - "Unset/Set Contextual Implicits" tells to consider implicit also the arguments inferable from the context (e.g. for nil or refl_eq) - "Unset/Set Strict Implicits" tells to consider implicit only the arguments that are inferable in any case (i.e. arguments that occurs as argument of rigid constants in the type of the remaining arguments; e.g. the witness of an existential is not strict since it can vanish when applied to a predicate which does not use its argument) Incompatibilities - "Grammar tactic ... : ast" and "Grammar vernac ... : ast" are no longer supported, use TACTIC EXTEND and VERNAC COMMAND EXTEND on the ML-side instead - Transparency of le_lt_dec and co (leads to some simplification in proofs; in some cases, incompatibilites is solved by declaring locally opaque the relevant constant) - Opaque Local do not now survive section closing (rename them into Remark/Lemma/... to get them still surviving the sections; this renaming allows also to solve incompatibilites related to now forbidden calls to the tactic Clear) - Remark and Fact have no longer (very) long names (use Local instead in case of name conflict) Bugs - Improved localisation of errors in Syntactic Definitions - Induction principle creation failure in presence of let-in fixed (#238) - Inversion bugs fixed (#212 and #220) - Omega bug related to Set fixed (#180) - Type-checking inefficiency of nested destructuring let-in fixed (#216) - Improved handling of let-in during holes resolution phase (#239) Efficiency - Implementation of a memory sharing strategy reducing memory requirements by an average ratio of 3.

This extension has been also implemented using the toplevel tactic language. - Intuition does no longer unfold constants except "<->" and "~". It can be parameterized by a tactic. It also can introduce dependent product if needed (source of incompatibilities) - "Match Context" now matching more recent hypotheses first and failing only on user errors and Fail tactic (possible source of incompatibilities) - Tactic Definition's without arguments now allowed in Coq states - Better simplification and discrimination made by Inversion (source of incompatibilities) Bugs - "Intros H" now working like "Intro H" trying first to reduce if not a product - Forward dependencies in Cases now taken into account - Known bugs related to Inversion and let-in's fixed - Bug unexpected Delta with let-in now fixed Extraction (details in contrib/extraction/CHANGES or documentation) - Signatures of extracted terms are now mostly expunged from dummy arguments. - Haskell extraction is now operational (tested & debugged).

(effects on 2 definitions of submitted user contributions necessitating the removal of now superfluous proof steps in 3 different proofs) - Match Context, in case of incompatibilities because of a now non trapped error (e.g. Not_found or Failure), use instead tactic Fail to force Match Context trying the next clause - Inversion: better simplification and discrimination may occasionally lead to less subgoals and/or hypotheses and different naming of hypotheses - Unification done by Apply/Elim has been changed and may exceptionally lead to incompatible instantiations - Peano_dec.v and Compare_dec.v parts of Arith.v make Auto more powerful if these files were not already required (1 occurrence of this in submitted user contribs) Changes from V7.1 to V7.2 ========================= Language - Automatic insertion of patterns for local definitions in the type of the constructors of an inductive types (for compatibility with V6.3 let-in style) - Coercions allowed in Cases patterns - New declaration "Canonical Structure id = t : I" to help resolution of equations of the form (proj ?)=a; if proj(e)=a then a is canonically equipped with the remaining fields in e, i.e. ? is instantiated by e Tactics - New tactic "ClearBody H" to clear the body of definitions in local context - New tactic "Assert H := c" for forward reasoning - Slight improvement in naming strategy for NewInduction/NewDestruct - Intuition/Tauto do not perform useless unfolding and work up to conversion Extraction (details in contrib/extraction/CHANGES or documentation) - Syntax changes: there are no more options inside the extraction commands.

A fully qualified name is an absolute name which always refer to the construction it denotes (to preserve the visibility of all constructions, no conflict is allowed for an absolute name) (+) - Long names are available for modules with the possibility of using the directory name as a component of the module full name (with option -R to coqtop and coqc, or command Add LoadPath) (+) - Improved conflict resolution strategy (the Unix PATH model), allowing more constructions to be referred just by their base name Language: miscellaneous ----------------------- - The names of variables for Record projections _and_ for induction principles (e.g. sum_ind) is now based on the first letter of their type (main source of incompatibility) (**)(+) - Most typing errors have now a precise location in the source (+) - Slightly different mechanism to solve "?"
