B/combt: Combinations Template.
 
@Purpose: Code to support the combination kind of value constructor.
 
@-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@p Block Format.
A combination is like a list, but simpler; it has a fixed, usually short,
size. On the other hand, its entries are not all of the same kind as each
other.

The short block for a combination is simply a pointer to the long block.
This consists of one word to hold the strong kind ID, and then one word
for each entry in the combination. Thus, a triple combination uses 4 words.

@c
Constant COMBINATION_KIND_F = 0;    ! Strong kind ID
Constant COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE = 1; ! List items begin at this entry

@p KOV Support.
See the "BlockValues.i6t" segment for the specification of the following
routines.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Support task arg1 arg2 arg3;
	switch(task) {
		CREATE_KOVS:      return COMBINATION_TY_Create(arg1, arg2);
		DESTROY_KOVS:     COMBINATION_TY_Destroy(arg1);
		MAKEMUTABLE_KOVS: return 1;
		COPYKIND_KOVS:    return COMBINATION_TY_CopyKind(arg1, arg2);
		COPYQUICK_KOVS:   rtrue;
		COPYSB_KOVS:	  BlkValueCopySB1(arg1, arg2);
		KINDDATA_KOVS:    return COMBINATION_TY_KindData(arg1);
		EXTENT_KOVS:      return -1;
		COPY_KOVS:        COMBINATION_TY_Copy(arg1, arg2, arg3);
		COMPARE_KOVS:     return COMBINATION_TY_Compare(arg1, arg2);
		HASH_KOVS:        return COMBINATION_TY_Hash(arg1);
		DEBUG_KOVS:       print " = ", (COMBINATION_TY_Say) arg1;
	}
	! We choose not to respond to: CAST_KOVS, READ_FILE_KOVS, WRITE_FILE_KOVS
	rfalse;
];

@p Creation.
A combination is like a list, but simpler; it has a fixed, usually short,
size. On the other hand, its entries are not all of the same kind as each
other.

Combinations are stored as a fixed-sized block of word entries. The first
block is the only header information: a pointer to a further structure in
memory, describing the kind. The subsequent blocks are the actual records.
Thus, a triple $(x, y, z)$ uses 4 words.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Create kind sb long_block N i bk v;
	N = KindBaseArity(kind);
	long_block = FlexAllocate(
		(COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE+N)*WORDSIZE, COMBINATION_TY, BLK_FLAG_WORD);
	BlkValueWrite(long_block, COMBINATION_KIND_F, kind, true);
	for (i=0: i<N: i++) {
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		if (KOVIsBlockValue(bk)) v = BlkValueCreate(bk);
		else v = DefaultValueOfKOV(bk);
		BlkValueWrite(long_block, COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE+i, v, true);
	}
	return BlkValueCreateSB1(sb, long_block);
];

@p Destruction.
If the comb items are themselves block-values, they must all be freed before
the comb itself can be freed.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Destroy comb kind no_items i bk;
	kind = BlkValueRead(comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
	no_items = KindBaseArity(kind);
	for (i=0: i<no_items: i++) {
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		if (KOVIsBlockValue(bk))
			BlkValueFree(BlkValueRead(comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE));
	}
];

@p Copying.
Again, if the comb contains block-values then they must be duplicated rather
than bitwise copied as pointers.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_CopyKind to from;
	BlkValueWrite(to, COMBINATION_KIND_F, BlkValueRead(from, COMBINATION_KIND_F));
];

[ COMBINATION_TY_CopySB to from;
	BlkValueCopySB1(to, from);
];

[ COMBINATION_TY_KindData comb;
	return BlkValueRead(comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
];

[ COMBINATION_TY_Copy to_comb from_comb precopied_comb_kov  no_items i nv kind bk;
	! kind = BlkValueRead(to_comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
	no_items = KindBaseArity(precopied_comb_kov);
	BlkValueWrite(to_comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F, precopied_comb_kov);
	for (i=0: i<no_items: i++) {
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		if (KOVIsBlockValue(bk)) {
			nv = BlkValueCreate(bk);
			BlkValueCopy(nv, BlkValueRead(from_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE));
			BlkValueWrite(to_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE, nv);
		}
	}
];

@p Comparison.
This is a lexicographic comparison and assumes both combinations have the
same kind.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Compare left_comb right_comb delta no_items i cf kind bk;
	kind = BlkValueRead(left_comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
	no_items = KindBaseArity(kind);
	for (i=0: i<no_items: i++) {
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		cf = KOVComparisonFunction(bk);
		if (cf == 0 or UnsignedCompare) {
			delta = BlkValueRead(left_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE) -
				BlkValueRead(right_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE);
			if (delta) return delta;
		} else {
			delta = cf(BlkValueRead(left_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE),
				BlkValueRead(right_comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE));
			if (delta) return delta;
		}
	}
	return 0;
];

[ COMBINATION_TY_Distinguish left_comb right_comb;
	if (COMBINATION_TY_Compare(left_comb, right_comb) == 0) rfalse;
	rtrue;
];

@p Hashing.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Hash comb  kind rv no_items i bk;
	rv = 0;
	kind = BlkValueRead(comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
	no_items = KindBaseArity(kind);
	for (i=0: i<no_items: i++) {
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		rv = rv * 33 + GetHashValue(bk, BlkValueRead(comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE));
	}
	return rv;
];

@p Printing.

@c
[ COMBINATION_TY_Say comb format no_items v i kind bk;
	if ((comb==0) || (BlkValueWeakKind(comb) ~= COMBINATION_TY)) return;
	kind = BlkValueRead(comb, COMBINATION_KIND_F);
	no_items = KindBaseArity(kind);
	print "(";
	for (i=0: i<no_items: i++) {
		if (i>0) print ", ";
		bk = KindBaseTerm(kind, i);
		v = BlkValueRead(comb, i+COMBINATION_ITEM_BASE);
		if (bk == LIST_OF_TY) LIST_OF_TY_Say(v, 1);
		else PrintKindValuePair(bk, v);
	}
	print ")";
