% Method names are not unique.
% It is possible to define the same method in multiple classes.
% The \TYPE{} algorithm accounts for that by generating Or-Constraints.
% This can lead to multiple possible solutions.

%\subsection{Well-Formedness}


% But it can be easily adapted to Featherweight Java or Java.
% We add T <. a for every return of an expression anyway. If anything returns a Generic like X it is not directly used in a method call like X <c T

The constraint generation works on the \TamedFJ{} language.
This step is mostly the same as in \cite{TIforFGJ} except for field access and method invocation.
We will focus on those two parts where also the new capture constraints and wildcard type placeholders are introduced.

%In \TamedFJ{} capture conversion is implicit.
%To emulate Java's behaviour we assume the input program not to contain any let statements.
%They will be added by an ANF transformation (see chapter \ref{sec:anfTransformation}).

Before generating constraints the input is transformed by an ANF transformation (see section \ref{sec:anfTransformation}).

%Constraints are generated on the basis of the program in A-Normal form.
%After adding the missing type annotations the resulting program is valid under the typing rules in \cite{WildFJ}.

%This is shown in chapter \ref{sec:soundness}

%\section{\TamedFJ{}: Syntax and Typing}\label{sec:tifj}

% The syntax forces every expression to undergo a capture conversion before it can be used as a method argument.
% Even variables have to be catched by a let statement first.
% This behaviour emulates Java's implicit capture conversion.

\subsection{ANF transformation}\label{sec:anfTransformation}
\newcommand{\anf}[1]{\ensuremath{\tau}(#1)}
%https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-normal_form)
Featherweight Java's syntax involves no \texttt{let} statement
and terms can be nested freely similar to Java's syntax.
Our calculus \TamedFJ{} uses let statements to explicitly apply capture conversion to wildcard types,
but we don't know which expressions will spawn wildcard types because there are no type annotations yet.
To emulate Java's behaviour we have to preemptively add capture conversion in every suitable place.
%To convert it to \TamedFJ{} additional let statements have to be added.
This is done by a \textit{A-Normal Form} \cite{aNormalForm} transformation shown in figure \ref{fig:anfTransformation}.
After this transformation every method invocation is preceded by let statements which perform capture conversion on every argument before passing them to the method.
See the example in listings \ref{lst:anfinput} and \ref{lst:anfoutput}.

\subsection{Constraint Generation Algorithm}
% Generally subtype constraints for an expression mirror the subtype relations in the premise of the respective type rule introduced in section \ref{sec:tifj}.
% Unknown types at the time of the constraint generation step are replaced with type placeholders.

% The constraint generation step cannot determine if a capture conversion is needed for a field access or a method call.
% Those statements produce $\lessdotCC$ constraints which signal the \unify{} algorithm that they qualify for a capture conversion.

The parameter types given to a generic method also affect their return type.
During constraint generation the algorithm does not know the parameter types yet.
We generate $\lessdotCC$ constraints and let \unify{} do the capture conversion.
$\lessdotCC$ constraints are kept until they reach the form $\type{G} \lessdotCC \type{G}$ and a capture conversion is possible.
% TODO: Challenge examples!

At points where a well-formed type is needed we use a normal type placeholder.
Inside a method call expression sub expressions (receiver, parameter) wildcard placeholders are used.
Here captured variables can flow freely.
A normal type placeholder cannot hold types containing free variables.
Normal type placeholders are assigned types which are also expressible with Java syntax.
So no types like $\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{Pair}{\rwildcard{X}, \rwildcard{X}}$ or $\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{List}{\exptype{List}{\rwildcard{X}}}$.

It is possible to feed the \unify{} algorithm a set of free variables with predefined bounds.
This is used for class generics see figure \ref{fig:constraints-for-classes}.
The \fjtype{} function returns a set of constraints aswell as an initial environment $\Delta$
containing the generics declared by this class.
Those type variables count as regular types and can be held by normal type placeholders.

%Why do we need a constraint generation step?
%% The problem is NP-Hard
%% a method call, does not know which type it will produce
%% depending on its type the 

%NO equals constraints during the constraint generation step!

\begin{example}
Given the following input program missing type annotations for the \texttt{example} method:
\begin{lstlisting}[style=java]
class Class1{
  <A> A head(List<X> l){ ... }
  List<? extends String> get() { ... }
}

class Class2{
  example(c1){
    return c1.head(c1.get());
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}
%This example comes with predefined type annotations.
We assume the class \texttt{Class1} has already been processed by our type inference algorithm
leading to the following type annotations:
%Now we call the $\fjtype{}$ function with the class \texttt{Class2} and the method assumptions for the preceeding class:
\begin{displaymath}
\mtypeEnvironment =  \left\{\begin{array}{l}
    \texttt{m}: \generics{\type{A} \triangleleft \type{Object}} \ 
      (\type{Class1},\, \exptype{List}{\type{A}}) \to \type{X}, \\
     \texttt{get}: (\type{Class1}) \to \wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{Object}}{\type{String}}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}}
\end{array} \right\} 
\end{displaymath}

At first we have to convert the example method to a syntactically correct \TamedFJ{} program.
Afterwards the the \fjtype{} algorithm is able to generate constraints.

\noindent
\begin{minipage}{0.52\textwidth}
  \begin{lstlisting}[style=tamedfj]
class Class2 {
  example(c1) = let x = c1 in
    let xp = x.get() in x.m(xp);
}
\end{lstlisting}
      \end{minipage}%
      \hfill
      \begin{minipage}{0.46\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}[style=constraints]
(*@$\ntv{c1} \lessdot \ntv{x}, \ntv{x} \lessdotCC \type{Class1}$@*),
(*@$\ntv{c1} \lessdot \ntv{x}, \ntv{x} \lessdotCC \type{Class1}$@*),
(*@$\wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}} \lessdot \tv{xp}$@*),
(*@$\tv{xp} \lessdotCC \exptype{List}{\wtv{a}}$@*)
\end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}

Following is a possible solution for the given constraint set:

\noindent
\begin{minipage}{0.55\textwidth}
  \begin{lstlisting}[style=tamedfj]
class Class2 {
 example(c1) = let x :Class1 = c1 in
  let xp :(*@$\wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}}$@*) = x.get()
   in x.m(xp);
}
\end{lstlisting}
      \end{minipage}%
      \hfill
      \begin{minipage}{0.43\textwidth}
\begin{lstlisting}[style=constraints]
(*@$\sigma(\ntv{x}) = \type{Class1}$@*),
(*@$\sigma(\tv{xp}) = \wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}}$@*)
  \end{lstlisting}
\end{minipage}

For $\wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}}$ to be a correct solution for $\tv{xp}$
the constraint $\wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}} \lessdotCC \exptype{List}{\wtv{a}}$
must be satisfied.
This is possible, because we deal with a capture constraint.
The $\lessdotCC$ constraint allows the left side to undergo a capture conversion
which leads to $\exptype{List}{\rwildcard{A}} \lessdot \exptype{List}{\wtv{a}}$.
Now a substitution of the wildcard placeholder $\wtv{a}$ with $\rwildcard{A}$ leads to a satisfied constraint set.
\end{example}

The wildcard placeholders are not used as parameter or return types of methods.
Or as types for variables introduced by let statements.
They are only used for generic method parameters during a method invocation.
Type placeholders which are not flagged as wildcard placeholders ($\wtv{a}$) can never hold a free variable or a type containing free variables.
This practice hinders free variables to leave their scope.
The free variable $\rwildcard{A}$ generated by the capture conversion on the type $\wctype{\wildcard{A}{\type{String}}{\bot}}{List}{\rwildcard{A}}$
cannot be used anywhere else then inside the constraints generated by the method call \texttt{x.m(xp)}.

\subsection{Constraint Generation}
The constraint generation is defined on a subset of Java displayed in figure \ref{fig:miniJavaSyntax}.
The input language includes only a small set of expressions like method calls, field access and a elvis operator $\elvis$
which acts as a replacement for if-else expressions.

\caption{Input Syntax with optional type annotations}\label{fig:miniJavaSyntax}
\end{figure}

We explain the process using the following example input.
The classes \texttt{List} and \texttt{Id} are already fully typed and we want to create constraints for the class
\texttt{CExample} now.

\begin{lstlisting}{java}
class Id{
  <X> X id(X x){ return x; }
}

class List<X> {
  <Y extends X> List<X> concat(List<Y> l){ ... }
}

class CExample{
  example(p1, p2) {
    return p1.id(p2).concat(p2);
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}

The first step of constraint generation is to assign type placeholders to every expression in the input program.
Type placeholders also fill in for missing type annotations in method headers.

\begin{lstlisting}{java}
class CExample{
  example(p1, p2) {
    return p1.id(p2).concat(p2);
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}  
\begin{lstlisting}{java}
class CExample{
  (*@$\tv{a}$@*) example((*@$\tv{b}$@*) p1, (*@$\tv{c}$@*) p2) {
    return ((p1:(*@$\tv{b}$@*)).id(p2:(*@$\tv{c}$@*)):(*@$\tv{d}$@*)).concat(p2:(*@$\tv{c}$@*)) : (*@$\tv{e}$@*);
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}  

The placeholders $\tv{a}-\tv{e}$ are freshly created in this example and added to every expression.
The type of local variable expressions like \expr{p1} and \expr{p2} is already known and can be assigned directly.
$\expr{p1}:\tv{b}$ and $\expr{p2}:\tv{c}$ in this case.
The method call to \texttt{id} gets the fresh type placeholder $\tv{d}$ as type and the method call to \texttt{concat} is assigned the placeholder $\tv{e}$.

Afterwards we create a method type environment $\mtypeEnvironment$ containing all method declarations.
Each entry has the form $\texttt{m} : \generics{\ol{X \triangleleft N}} \ol{T} \to \type{T}$.
The type arguments of the surrounding class and the type arguments of each method are merged together
leading to the list $\generics{\type{X}, \type{Y} \triangleleft \type{X}}$ for the \texttt{concat} method
($\triangleleft$ is short for \texttt{extends}).
Also the type of the surrounding class is added to the parameter list of the method.
This leads to the \texttt{id} method having two arguments.
One is the \texttt{Id} class itself and the second one is the actual arguemnt of the method.

$\mtypeEnvironment{} = \left\{ \begin{array}{l}
\texttt{id} : \generics{\type{X}}\type{Id},\type{X} \to \type{X}, \\
\texttt{concat} : \generics{\type{X}, \type{Y} \triangleleft \type{X}}\exptype{List}{\type{X}},\exptype{List}{\type{Y}} \to \exptype{List}{\type{X}}, \\
\texttt{example} : \type{CExample},\tv{b},\tv{c} \to \tv{a}, \\
\end{array} \right\} 
$

Note: type placeholders are used for the \texttt{example} method.

Our constraint generation rules have the form:
$\mtypeEnvironment \vdash \expr{e} : \tv{a} \implies C$,
that given a method environment $\mtypeEnvironment$ and an expression $\expr{e}$ with type $\tv{a}$ generates the constraint set $C$.

According to the Method-Cons rule the constraints generated by the call to \texttt{id} are:
$\mtypeEnvironment \vdash (p1:\tv{b}).id(p2:\tv{c}):\tv{d} \implies \set{\tv{b} \lessdot \tv{x}_1, \tv{c} \lessdot \tv{x}_2, \tv{x}_1 \lessdotCC \type{Id},
\tv{x}_2 \lessdotCC \wtv{b}, \wtv{b} \lessdot \tv{d}}$.

\subsection{Or-Constraints}
In case the input program contains multiple method declarations holding the same name and same amount of parameters then so called Or-Constraints must be generated.
Usually Java is able to determine which method to call based on the argument's types passed to the method. %'
During the constraint generation step the argument types are unknown and we have to assume multiple methods as invocation target.

\begin{lstlisting}
class String{
  bool equals(String s){ .. }
}
class Int{
  bool equals(Int i){ .. }
}
class OrConsExample{
  m(a, b){
    return a.equals(b);
  }
}
\end{lstlisting}

The method call to \texttt{equals} now has multiple possibilities.
It could either be a call to the method in the class \texttt{Int} or in \texttt{String}.
The method type environment therfore contains two versions of the \texttt{equals} method:

$\mtypeEnvironment{} = \set{ \texttt{equals}_1 : \type{String}, \type{String} \to \type{bool}, 
\texttt{equals}_2 : \type{Int}, \type{Int} \to \type{bool}}$

The Or-Cons rule considers multiple declarations of the same method separately and joins all of them into a Or-Constraint.

\begin{mathpar}
  \inferrule[Or-Cons]{
    \texttt{m}_1 \ldots \texttt{m}_n \in \text{dom}(\mtypeEnvironment{}) \\
    \mtypeEnvironment \vdash \expr{e}.\texttt{m}_1(\overline{\expr{e}}) : \tv{a} \implies C_1 \quad
    \ldots \quad
    \mtypeEnvironment \vdash \expr{e}.\texttt{m}_n(\overline{\expr{e}}) : \tv{a} \implies C_n
  }{
      \mtypeEnvironment \vdash \expr{e}.\texttt{m}(\overline{\expr{e}}) : \tv{a} \implies \orCons{}(C_1, \ldots, C_n)
  }
\end{mathpar}

% \section{Result Generation}
% If \unify{} returns atleast one type solution $(\Delta, \sigma)$
% the last step of the type inference algorithm is to generate a typed class.

% This section presents our type inference algorithm.
% The algorithm is given method assumptions $\mv\Pi$ and applied to a
% single class $\mv L$ at a time:
% \begin{gather*}
% \fjtypeinference(\mtypeEnvironment, \texttt{class}\ \exptype{C}{\ol{X}
% \triangleleft \ol{N}} \triangleleft \type{N}\ \{ \overline{\type{T} \ f};\ \ol{M} \}) = \\
% \quad \quad \begin{array}[t]{rll}
%   \textbf{let}\ 
%   (\overline{\methodAssumption}, \consSet) &= \fjtype{}(\mv{\Pi}, \texttt{class}\ \exptype{C}{\ol{X}
%   \triangleleft \ol{N}} \triangleleft \type{N}\ \{ \ldots \}) &
%                                                                      \text{// constraint generation}\\
%               {(\Delta, \sigma)} &= \unify{}(\consSet,\, \ol{X} <: \ol{N}) & \text{// constraint solving}\\
%               \generics{\ol{Y} \triangleleft \ol{S}} &= \set{ \type{Y} \triangleleft \type{S} \mid \wildcard{Y}{\type{P}}{\bot} \in \Delta} \\
%   \ol{M'} &= \set{ \generics{\ol{Y} \triangleleft \ol{S}}\ \sigma(\tv{a}) \ \texttt{m}(\ol{\sigma(\tv{a})\ x}) = \texttt{e} \mid (\mathtt{m}(\ol{x})\ = \mv e) \in \ol{M}, (\exptype{C}{\ol{X} \triangleleft \ol{N}}.\mv{m} : \ol{\tv{a}} \to \tv{a}) \in \overline{\methodAssumption}}
%   %TODO: Describe whole algorithm (Insert types, try out every unify solution by backtracking (describe it as Non Deterministic algorithm))
% \end{array}\\
% \textbf{in}\ \texttt{class}\ \exptype{C}{\ol{X}
% \triangleleft \ol{N}} \triangleleft \type{N}\ \{ \overline{\type{T} \ f};\ \ol{M'} \} \\
% \textbf{in}\ \mtypeEnvironment \cup
% \set{(\exptype{C}{\ol{X} \triangleleft \ol{N}}.\mv{m} : \generics{\ol{Y} \triangleleft \ol{S}}\ \ol{\sigma(\tv{a})} \to \sigma(\tv{a})) \ |\ (\exptype{C}{\ol{X} \triangleleft \ol{N}}.\mv{m} : \ol{\tv{a}} \to \tv{a}) \in \overline{\methodAssumption}}
% % \fjtypeInsert(\overline{\methodAssumption}, (\sigma, \unifyGenerics{}) )
% \end{gather*}

% The overall algorithm is nondeterministic. The function $\unify{}$ may
% return finitely many times as there may be multiple solutions for a constraint
% set.  A local solution for class $\mv C$ may not
% be compatible with the constraints generated for a subsequent class. In this case, we have to backtrack to $\mv C$ and proceed to the next
% local solution; if thats fail we have to backtrack further to an earlier class.

% \begin{gather*}
%   \textbf{ApplyTypes}(\mtypeEnvironment, \texttt{class}\ \exptype{C}{\ol{X}
%   \triangleleft \ol{N}} \triangleleft \type{N}\ \{ \overline{\type{T} \ f};\ \ol{M} \}) = \\
%   \quad \quad \begin{array}[t]{rl}
%     \textbf{let}\ 
%     \ol{M'} &= \set{ \generics{\ol{Y} \triangleleft \ol{S}}\ \sigma(\tv{a}) \ \texttt{m}(\ol{\sigma(\tv{a})\ x}) = \texttt{e} \mid (\mathtt{m}(\ol{x})\ = \mv e) \in \ol{M}, (\exptype{C}{\ol{X} \triangleleft \ol{N}}.\mv{m} : \ol{\tv{a}} \to \tv{a}) \in \overline{\methodAssumption}}

% %TODO: Rules to create let statements
