NoTDC - Prefer no type-directed conversions 2. LessTDC - Prefer less type-directed conversion 3. NullableTDC - Prefer nullable TDC only 4. NoWarnings - Prefer no 'less generic' warnings 5. NoParamArray - Prefer no param array usage 6. PreciseParamArray - Prefer more precise param array type 7. NoOutArgs - Prefer no out args 8. NoOptionalArgs - Prefer no optional args 9. UnnamedArgs - Compare unnamed args by subsumption 10. PreferNonExtension - Prefer intrinsic over extension 11. ExtensionPriority - Prefer recently opened extension 12. PreferNonGeneric - Prefer non-generic methods 13. MoreConcrete (placeholder) - Most concrete tiebreaker from RFC 14. NullableOptionalInterop - F# 5.0 all args comparison 15.

Compare formal (uninstantiated) parameter types using FormalMethodInst instead of comparing CalledTyArgs (which are already instantiated after type inference) - This enables proper comparison for cases like: - 't vs Option<'t> (Option wins - more concrete structure) - Task<'T> vs 'T (Task wins for Task argument) - Async> vs Async<'t> (Result wins for Result argument) - Result vs Result<'ok,'e> (partial concreteness - int wins) The fix correctly resolves overloads where one method's parameter type has more concrete structure than another, even when both methods are generic. Updated 7 tests from shouldFail to shouldSucceed: - Example 2: 't vs Option<'t> - Example 5: Partial concreteness (int ok, string error) - Example 7: ValueTask Task vs T - Example 8: CE Source FsToolkit pattern - Real-world pattern: Source with Result types - FsToolkit pattern: same module extensions All 95 tiebreaker tests pass. --- .ralph/VISION.md | 130 ++++++++++++++++++ .../logs/Architect-20260119-173758.prompt.txt | 77 +++++++++++ .../Implement-1-20260119-174606.prompt.txt | 44 ++++++ .ralph/notes.txt | 0 .ralph/status.txt | 14 ++ src/Compiler/Checking/ConstraintSolver.fs | 11 +- .../Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs | 79 ++++------- 7 files changed, 301 insertions(+), 54 deletions(-) create mode 100644 .ralph/VISION.md create mode 100644 .ralph/logs/Architect-20260119-173758.prompt.txt create mode 100644 .ralph/logs/Implement-1-20260119-174606.prompt.txt create mode 100644 .ralph/notes.txt create mode 100644 .ralph/status.txt diff --git a/.ralph/VISION.md b/.ralph/VISION.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..b4f6e08b8d3 --- /dev/null +++ b/.ralph/VISION.md @@ -0,0 +1,130 @@ +# RFC FS-XXXX: "Most Concrete" Tiebreaker - Implementation Status & Gap Analysis + +## Executive Summary + +**Status:** ~80% complete.

Comparing SRTP constraints against regular constraints would produce confusing results +SRTP (statically resolved type parameters) works naturally with the tiebreaker: -The exclusion is implemented in `OverloadResolutionRules.fs` at two levels: -- **Concrete vs type var**: Skip if the type var is SRTP -- **Method-level**: Skip entire comparison if method has SRTP type params or SRTP in formal params +- **At definition time**: SRTP type variables (`^T`) are not compared for concreteness since they represent constraints to be resolved later +- **At instantiation time**: When the inline function is called with concrete types, those types participate fully in concreteness comparison +- **Resolution path**: SRTP member constraints use the same `ResolveOverloading` function and all 15 tiebreaker rules apply + +The implementation skips comparing `^T` itself (in `compareTypeConcreteness`) but does NOT exclude SRTP methods from the tiebreaker—only the SRTP type variable placeholders are skipped. ### Type Variable Comparison -When both types being compared are type variables, they are treated as equally concrete. -Note: Neither F# nor C# allows method overloading based solely on generic constraints, so -comparing constraint counts would be dead code with no practical test coverage. +When both types being compared are type variables (`'a` vs `'b`), they are treated as equally concrete (comparison returns 0). ## Release Notes diff --git a/docs/TIEBREAKERS_DIAGRAM.md b/docs/TIEBREAKERS_DIAGRAM.md index 0a7bdb6f767..aff3c8f62ba 100644 --- a/docs/TIEBREAKERS_DIAGRAM.md +++ b/docs/TIEBREAKERS_DIAGRAM.md @@ -203,7 +203,7 @@ type TiebreakRuleId = ║ │ Prefer more concrete type instantiations │ ║ ║ │ Example: Option beats Option<'t> │ ║ ║ │ ⚠️ Only when BOTH methods are generic │ ║ -║ │ ⚠️ Skipped for SRTP methods │ ║ +║ │ ⚠️ SRTP type vars (^T) skipped in comparison (deferred resolution) │ ║ ║ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ║ ║ │ ║ ║ ▼ ║ @@ -239,8 +239,8 @@ type TiebreakRuleId = │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ ✓ LanguageFeature.MoreConcreteTiebreaker enabled (F# 10.0+) │ │ │ │ ✓ BOTH candidates have non-empty CalledTyArgs (both are generic) │ │ -│ │ ✓ Neither method has SRTP type parameters │ │ -│ │ ✓ No SRTP type variables in formal parameters │ │ +│ │ (SRTP type vars ^T skipped in comparison, but concrete types at │ │ +│ │ instantiation site still participate) │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ @@ -301,7 +301,7 @@ type TiebreakRuleId = │ │ │ │(-1/+1) │ │aggregate │ │aggregate │ │aggregate │ │aggregate │ │ │ └────────┘ └────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ -│ Note: SRTP type variables (^T) always return 0 (excluded from comparison) │ +│ Note: SRTP type vars (^T) return 0 in comparison (deferred until instantiation) │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` diff --git a/tests/FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests/Conformance/Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs b/tests/FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests/Conformance/Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs index b2473eb1757..3dfc2c625a6 100644 --- a/tests/FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests/Conformance/Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs +++ b/tests/FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests/Conformance/Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs @@ -2115,3 +2115,150 @@ let result = Example.Process(Some([1])) |> shouldFail |> withWarningCode 3576 |> ignore + + // ============================================================================ + // SRTP Layered Resolution Tests (FsToolkit-inspired patterns) + // ============================================================================ + // These tests verify that the tiebreaker works correctly with SRTP when: + // 1.

Algorithm Position: Pre-Filter (Not Tiebreaker Rule) + +Per the RFC and C# behavior, OverloadResolutionPriority is implemented as a **pre-filter** that runs **before** tiebreaker comparison, NOT as another tiebreaker rule.

Integration Point + +The pre-filter should be applied in `ConstraintSolver.fs` at `GetMostApplicableOverload`: +- After `applicableMeths` list is formed (line ~3668) +- Before the `better` comparison loop +- Filter by grouping on `Method.ApparentEnclosingType` and keeping only max-priority within each group + +### 3. Rule Engine Alignment + +**NOT adding a new TiebreakRuleId.** The RFC explicitly says priority is a pre-filter. Adding it as a rule would violate the semantics where priority **overrides** all tiebreakers including concreteness. + +However, we may add tracking to report which methods were eliminated by priority filtering. + +### 4. Attribute Reading Pattern + +Follow existing pattern in `infos.fs`: +```fsharp +member x.GetOverloadResolutionPriority() : int = + match x with + | ILMeth(_, ilMethInfo, _) -> + ilMethInfo.RawMetadata.CustomAttrs.AsList() + |> List.tryPick (fun attr -> + if attr.Method.DeclaringTypeRef.FullName = + "System.Runtime.CompilerServices.OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute" then + match attr.Elements with + | [ILAttribElem.Int32 priority] -> Some priority + | _ -> Some 0 + else None) + |> Option.defaultValue 0 + | _ -> 0 +``` + +### 5.

Algorithm Position: Pre-Filter (Not Tiebreaker Rule) - -Per the RFC and C# behavior, OverloadResolutionPriority is implemented as a **pre-filter** that runs **before** tiebreaker comparison, NOT as another tiebreaker rule. This is critical: - -- Candidates are **grouped by declaring type** -- Within each group, only **highest-priority candidates survive** -- Groups are recombined -- **Then** all existing tiebreaker rules apply (including MoreConcrete) - -This means a method with `[OverloadResolutionPriority(1)]` will **always** beat one with priority 0 from the same declaring type, regardless of type concreteness. - -### 2. Integration Point - -The pre-filter should be applied in `ConstraintSolver.fs` at `GetMostApplicableOverload`: -- After `applicableMeths` list is formed (line ~3668) -- Before the `better` comparison loop -- Filter by grouping on `Method.ApparentEnclosingType` and keeping only max-priority within each group - -```fsharp -/// Filter applicable methods by OverloadResolutionPriority attribute. -/// Groups methods by declaring type and keeps only highest-priority within each group. -let filterByOverloadResolutionPriority (g: TcGlobals) (applicableMeths: list * _ * _ * _>) = - if not (g.langVersion.SupportsFeature(LanguageFeature.OverloadResolutionPriority)) then - applicableMeths - else - applicableMeths - |> List.groupBy (fun (calledMeth, _, _, _) -> calledMeth.Method.ApparentEnclosingType) - |> List.collect (fun (_, group) -> - let maxPriority = group |> List.map (fun (cm, _, _, _) -> cm.Method.GetOverloadResolutionPriority()) |> List.max - group |> List.filter (fun (cm, _, _, _) -> cm.Method.GetOverloadResolutionPriority() = maxPriority)) -``` - -### 3. Rule Engine Alignment - -**NOT adding a new TiebreakRuleId.** The RFC explicitly says priority is a pre-filter. Adding it as a rule would violate the semantics where priority **overrides** all tiebreakers including concreteness. - -However, we may add tracking to report which methods were eliminated by priority filtering. - -### 4. Attribute Reading Pattern (ALREADY IMPLEMENTED) - -The `GetOverloadResolutionPriority()` method exists in `infos.fs`: -```fsharp -member x.GetOverloadResolutionPriority() : int = - let overloadResolutionPriorityAttributeName = - "System.Runtime.CompilerServices.OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute" - match x with - | ILMeth(_, ilMethInfo, _) -> - ilMethInfo.RawMetadata.CustomAttrs.AsArray() - |> Array.tryPick (fun attr -> - if attr.Method.DeclaringType.TypeRef.FullName = overloadResolutionPriorityAttributeName then - match attr.Elements with - | [ ILAttribElem.Int32 priority ] -> Some priority - | _ -> Some 0 - else None) - |> Option.defaultValue 0 - | MethInfoWithModifiedReturnType(mi, _) -> mi.GetOverloadResolutionPriority() - | FSMeth _ -> 0 // F#-defined methods need IL-based check - | DefaultStructCtor _ -> 0 - | ProvidedMeth _ -> 0 -``` - -### 5. Language Feature Gating (ALREADY IMPLEMENTED) - -- `LanguageFeature.OverloadResolutionPriority` exists in F# 10.0 -- When disabled, the attribute is **silently ignored** (not an error) -- This matches C# behavior for consuming BCL types that use the attribute - -### 6. Diagnostics - -- FS3575/FS3576 exist for concreteness - add FS3578 for priority selection (off by default) -- Error if `[OverloadResolutionPriority]` applied to an override (out of scope for MVP) - -## Constraints & Gotchas - -1. **Inheritance**: Priority is read from **least-derived declaration**. Applying to override is an error. (Post-MVP) - -2. **Extension methods**: Priority is scoped per-declaring-type, not global. Different extension types compete independently. - -3. **F# methods**: For F#-defined methods with the attribute applied in F#, we need to handle FSMeth case. MVP can defer this. - -4. **Polyfill**: The attribute only exists in .NET 9+. Older targets may need polyfill.

"Most Concrete" Tiebreaker for Overload Resolution + +The design suggestion [Prefer more concrete overloads in overload resolution](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/FILL-ME-IN) has been marked "approved in principle". + +This RFC covers the detailed proposal for this suggestion. + +- [ ] [Suggestion](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/FILL-ME-IN) +- [ ] Approved in principle +- [ ] [Implementation](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/pull/FILL-ME-IN) +- [ ] [Discussion](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-design/discussions/FILL-ME-IN) + +# Summary + +This RFC introduces a new tiebreaker rule for F# overload resolution that prefers "more concrete" overloads when choosing between methods with different levels of type specificity. Currently, F# emits `FS0041` ambiguity errors in cases where one overload is clearly more specific than another (e.g., `Option` vs `Option<'t>`), even when the argument types are fully known. This change aligns F# with C#'s overload resolution behavior and eliminates the need for workarounds in common scenarios. + +## Motivation + +### ValueTask Constructor — Real BCL Pain Point + +The .NET `ValueTask<'T>` struct has constructors for both direct values and tasks: + +```fsharp +open System.Threading.Tasks + +// ValueTask(result: 'T) vs ValueTask(task: Task<'T>) +let task = Task.FromResult(42) +let vt = ValueTask(task) +// Current: FS0041 or requires named parameter: ValueTask(task = task) +// Proposed: Resolves automatically — Task is more concrete than 'T +``` + +This pattern affects real code: users must write `ValueTask(task = someTask)` to disambiguate, adding friction that C# users never experience. The same issue impacts: + +- **TaskBuilder.fs**: Uses priority marker types to force resolution +- **FsToolkit.ErrorHandling**: Splits extensions across modules for import ordering +- **.NET BCL**: Many generic vs. concrete overload patterns + +### Basic Example + +```fsharp +type Example = + static member Invoke(value: Option<'t>) = "generic" + static member Invoke(value: Option) = "concrete" + +// Current: Error FS0041 — Proposed: Resolves to Option overload +let result = Example.Invoke(Some([1])) +``` + +## Algorithm Overview + +The algorithm introduces a partial order on types based on "concreteness level." Fully instantiated types (like `int`, `Option`) are more concrete than type variables (`'t`). Generic type applications inherit the minimum concreteness of their type arguments. When comparing two overloads, if one is more concrete in at least one type argument position and not less concrete in any other position (the "dominance rule"), it is preferred. This ensures only cases with a clear winner are resolved—truly ambiguous cases like `Result` vs `Result<'t,string>` remain errors because each is more concrete in a different position. + +## Specification Diff + +Changes to F# Language Specification §14.4 (Method Application Resolution), Step 7: + +```diff + 7. Apply the following rules, in order, until a unique better method M is determined: + 1. Prefer candidates that don't constrain user type annotations + 2.

This would be a larger change with more risk of breaking existing F# code. The tiebreaker approach is more conservative. + +3. **Attribute-based explicit priority**: Allow library authors to mark overloads with explicit priority (see related RFC for `OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute`). This is complementary—explicit priority could override implicit concreteness when needed. + +# Prior Art + +- **C# "better function member"** (ECMA-334 §12.6.4): C# prefers more specific overloads after type inference.

Existing F# code is unaffected. - -* What happens when previous versions of the F# compiler encounter this design addition as source code? - -The attribute is silently ignored. Overload resolution proceeds as before. - -* What happens when previous versions of the F# compiler encounter this design addition in compiled binaries? - -The attribute metadata is ignored. No runtime impact. - -# Unresolved Questions - -None. All design decisions have been resolved to match C# behavior.

12 Feb 2026 19:12:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 64/88] Fixup #1 (iteration 2): Address remaining CODE-QUALITY, PERF, TEST-CODE-QUALITY feedback CODE-QUALITY: - evaluateTiebreakRules now delegates to findDecidingRule (eliminates duplicate loop) - Remove dead code: wasDecidedByRule (zero callers after fixup iteration 1) - Remove unnecessary API surface: getAllTiebreakRules (zero external callers) PERF: - Cache deciding rules from pairwise comparisons in Dictionary; concreteness warning check uses cache lookup instead of re-evaluating all 15 rules - Reuse existing OverloadResolutionContext (ctx) in incomparableConcretenessInfo instead of allocating a duplicate record TEST-CODE-QUALITY: - Parameterize 16 remaining structurally identical tests into concreteWrapperTestCases (12 Fact tests) and concreteWrapperNetCoreTestCases (4 FactForNETCOREAPP tests via TheoryForNETCOREAPP) - Net reduction: ~319 lines --- src/Compiler/Checking/ConstraintSolver.fs | 25 +-

Common scenarios include: - -- **ValueTask constructor pattern**: `ValueTask<'T>.op_Implicit(Task<'T>)` vs `ValueTask<'T>.op_Implicit('T)` -- **CE Source pattern**: `Async<'t>` vs `Async>` -- **Wrapped vs bare types**: `'t` vs `Option<'t>` - -Without this tiebreaker, F# produces FS0041 (ambiguous overload) errors that force users to add explicit type annotations. - -## Algorithm - -### Type Concreteness Comparison - -The `compareTypeConcreteness` function in `OverloadResolutionRules.fs` recursively compares two types and returns: -- `1` if the first type is more concrete -- `-1` if the second type is more concrete -- `0` if they are equally concrete or incomparable - -#### Rules - -1. **Type variables are less concrete than any concrete type** - - `'t` vs `int` → `int` wins (-1) - - `'t` vs `Option<'t>` → `Option<'t>` wins (-1) - -2. **For type applications, compare element types** - - `Option` vs `Option<'t>` → `Option` wins (1) - - Recursive comparison of type arguments - -3. **Dominance rule**: All comparisons must agree in direction - - If any comparison returns 0 (incomparable), the overall result is 0 - - Mixed results (some 1, some -1) produce 0 (incomparable) - -### Integration Point - -The tiebreaker is integrated via `evaluateTiebreakRules` (called from `better()` in `ConstraintSolver.fs`), positioned: -- **After** Rule 12 (prefer non-generic methods) -- **Before** F# 5.0 optional/ParamArray tiebreaker - -**Note on ordering terminology:** The implementation uses internal priority numbers (Rule 13 = "MoreConcrete"), while the F# Language Spec §14.4 uses a different step numbering.

-## Implementation Notes - -### SRTP Integration - -SRTP (statically resolved type parameters) works naturally with the tiebreaker: - -- **At definition time**: SRTP type variables (`^T`) are not compared for concreteness since they represent constraints to be resolved later -- **At instantiation time**: When the inline function is called with concrete types, those types participate fully in concreteness comparison -- **Resolution path**: SRTP member constraints use the same `ResolveOverloading` function and all 15 tiebreaker rules apply - -The implementation skips comparing `^T` itself (in `compareTypeConcreteness`) but does NOT exclude SRTP methods from the tiebreaker—only the SRTP type variable placeholders are skipped. - -### Type Variable Comparison - -When both types being compared are type variables (`'a` vs `'b`), they are treated as equally concrete (comparison returns 0). - -## Release Notes - -- Language: `docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md` -

"Most Concrete" Tiebreaker for Overload Resolution - -The design suggestion [Prefer more concrete overloads in overload resolution](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/FILL-ME-IN) has been marked "approved in principle". - -This RFC covers the detailed proposal for this suggestion. - -- [ ] [Suggestion](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/FILL-ME-IN) -- [ ] Approved in principle -- [ ] [Implementation](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/pull/FILL-ME-IN) -- [ ] [Discussion](https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-design/discussions/FILL-ME-IN) - -# Summary - -This RFC introduces a new tiebreaker rule for F# overload resolution that prefers "more concrete" overloads when choosing between methods with different levels of type specificity. Currently, F# emits `FS0041` ambiguity errors in cases where one overload is clearly more specific than another (e.g., `Option` vs `Option<'t>`), even when the argument types are fully known. This change aligns F# with C#'s overload resolution behavior and eliminates the need for workarounds in common scenarios. - -## Motivation - -### ValueTask Constructor — Real BCL Pain Point - -The .NET `ValueTask<'T>` struct has constructors for both direct values and tasks: - -```fsharp -open System.Threading.Tasks - -// ValueTask(result: 'T) vs ValueTask(task: Task<'T>) -let task = Task.FromResult(42) -let vt = ValueTask(task) -// Current: FS0041 or requires named parameter: ValueTask(task = task) -// Proposed: Resolves automatically — Task is more concrete than 'T -``` - -This pattern affects real code: users must write `ValueTask(task = someTask)` to disambiguate, adding friction that C# users never experience. The same issue impacts: - -- **TaskBuilder.fs**: Uses priority marker types to force resolution -- **FsToolkit.ErrorHandling**: Splits extensions across modules for import ordering -- **.NET BCL**: Many generic vs. concrete overload patterns - -### Basic Example - -```fsharp -type Example = - static member Invoke(value: Option<'t>) = "generic" - static member Invoke(value: Option) = "concrete" - -// Current: Error FS0041 — Proposed: Resolves to Option overload -let result = Example.Invoke(Some([1])) -``` - -## Algorithm Overview - -The algorithm introduces a partial order on types based on "concreteness level." Fully instantiated types (like `int`, `Option`) are more concrete than type variables (`'t`). Generic type applications inherit the minimum concreteness of their type arguments. When comparing two overloads, if one is more concrete in at least one type argument position and not less concrete in any other position (the "dominance rule"), it is preferred. This ensures only cases with a clear winner are resolved—truly ambiguous cases like `Result` vs `Result<'t,string>` remain errors because each is more concrete in a different position. - -## Specification Diff - -Changes to F# Language Specification §14.4 (Method Application Resolution), Step 7: - -```diff - 7. Apply the following rules, in order, until a unique better method M is determined: - 1. Prefer candidates that don't constrain user type annotations - 2. Prefer candidates without ParamArray conversion - 3. Prefer candidates without implicitly supplied arguments - 4. Prefer candidates whose types feasibly subsume competitors - 5. Prefer non-extension methods over extension methods - 6. Prefer more recently opened extension methods - 7. Prefer candidates with explicit argument count match - 8. Prefer non-generic candidates over generic candidates -+ 9.

The more concrete type '%s' was preferred over '%s'. This is an informational message and can be enabled with --warnon:3575." | Off | -| FS3576 | "A more generic overload was bypassed: '%s'. The selected overload '%s' was chosen because it has more concrete type parameters." | Off | - -Enable with `--warnon:3575` or `--warnon:3576` to audit resolution decisions during development. - -### Enhanced Ambiguity Errors - -When the tiebreaker cannot resolve (incomparable types), FS0041 is enhanced: - -``` -error FS0041: A unique overload for method 'Invoke' could not be determined. -Neither candidate is strictly more concrete than the other: - - Invoke(x: Result) is more concrete at position 1 - - Invoke(x: Result<'t, string>) is more concrete at position 2 -``` - -## Compatibility - -**Non-breaking change.** The tiebreaker only applies when: -1. Multiple overloads remain after all existing tiebreakers -2. Current behavior would produce an `FS0041` ambiguity error - -| Aspect | Impact | -|--------|--------| -| Existing code | Compiles identically | -| Previous FS0041 errors | May now compile successfully | -| Binary/IL | No change | -| Feature gate | F# 10.0 / `LangVersion preview` | - -### Portability - -```fsharp -// Works on new compiler: -let result = Api.Call(Some 42) - -// Portable to all versions (add type annotation): -let result = Api.Call(Some 42 : Option) -``` - -## C# Alignment - -This change brings F# closer to C#'s "better function member" rules (ECMA-334 §12.6.4). In C#, after type inference, a generic method with inferred concrete types is compared as if it were a concrete overload. The F# tiebreaker produces the same resolution as C# in common cases, improving interoperability with .NET libraries that rely on overloading patterns. - -## Drawbacks - -- **Silent behavior change**: Code that previously failed with `FS0041` will now compile. Developers who relied on this error as a guardrail forcing explicit annotations may find overload selection happens implicitly. - -- **Adding generic overloads can change resolution**: When a library adds a new, more generic overload, existing call sites may switch to different (now "more concrete" by comparison) overloads. - -- **Learning curve for partial order semantics**: Developers must understand why `Result` vs `Result<'t,string>` remains ambiguous (neither dominates). The dominance rule is mathematically clean but may require explanation. - -# Alternatives - -1. **Do nothing**: Continue requiring explicit type annotations or named arguments for disambiguation. This is the status quo but creates friction, especially when consuming .NET libraries designed with C#'s resolution rules in mind. - -2. **Full C# semantics adoption**: Implement all of C#'s "better function member" rules. This would be a larger change with more risk of breaking existing F# code. The tiebreaker approach is more conservative. - -3. **Attribute-based explicit priority**: Allow library authors to mark overloads with explicit priority (see related RFC for `OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute`). This is complementary—explicit priority could override implicit concreteness when needed. - -# Prior Art - -- **C# "better function member"** (ECMA-334 §12.6.4): C# prefers more specific overloads after type inference. Our tiebreaker aligns with this for the common cases. - -- **Scala overload resolution**: Scala has similar specificity rules preferring more specific signatures. - -- **Haskell type class resolution**: Uses specificity ordering for instance selection, though the mechanism is different. - -# SRTP Integration - -The tiebreaker integrates naturally with SRTP (statically resolved type parameters). When an inline function with SRTP constraints calls overloaded methods, the tiebreaker applies at instantiation time when concrete types are known. SRTP type variables themselves (`^T`) are not compared for concreteness since they represent deferred constraints, but the concrete types at each call site participate fully in the comparison. - -# Unresolved Questions - -None.

Inline 2-element aggregation in TType_fun case of compareTypeConcreteness to avoid list allocation TEST-CODE-QUALITY fixes: - Merge duplicate Example 6 tests (identical source, first was subset) - Combine Example 5 partial concreteness tests into Theory with InlineData - Extract shared csharpPriorityLib to SharedTestHelpers.fs used by both TiebreakerTests and OverloadResolutionPriorityTests NO-LEFTOVERS fixes: - Remove stale RFC FS-XXXX references from release notes, comments, and test module doc --- docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md | 2 +- src/Compiler/Checking/ConstraintSolver.fs | 17 +++++- .../Checking/OverloadResolutionRules.fs | 56 ++++++++++--------- .../Checking/OverloadResolutionRules.fsi | 8 +-- .../OverloadResolutionPriorityTests.fs | 8 +-- .../Conformance/SharedTestHelpers.fs | 14 +++++ .../Tiebreakers/TiebreakerTests.fs | 56 ++++--------------- .../FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests.fsproj | 1 + 8 files changed, 78 insertions(+), 84 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/FSharp.Compiler.ComponentTests/Conformance/SharedTestHelpers.fs diff --git a/docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md b/docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md index ebd2943606e..fdebf9003fe 100644 --- a/docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md +++ b/docs/release-notes/.Language/preview.md @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ ### Added -* Added "Most Concrete" tiebreaker for overload resolution (RFC FS-XXXX).

Currently, F# emits `FS0041` ambiguity errors in cases where one overload is clearly more specific than another (e.g., `Option` vs `Option<'t>`), even when the argument types are fully known. This change aligns F# with C#'s overload resolution behavior and eliminates the need for workarounds in common scenarios. + +## Motivation + +### ValueTask Constructor — Real BCL Pain Point + +The .NET `ValueTask<'T>` struct has constructors for both direct values and tasks: + +```fsharp +open System.Threading.Tasks + +// ValueTask(result: 'T) vs ValueTask(task: Task<'T>) +let task = Task.FromResult(42) +let vt = ValueTask(task) +// Current: FS0041 or requires named parameter: ValueTask(task = task) +// Proposed: Resolves automatically — Task is more concrete than 'T +``` + +This pattern affects real code: users must write `ValueTask(task = someTask)` to disambiguate, adding friction that C# users never experience.

Fully instantiated types (like `int`, `Option`) are more concrete than type variables (`'t`). Generic type applications inherit the minimum concreteness of their type arguments. When comparing two overloads, if one is more concrete in at least one type argument position and not less concrete in any other position (the "dominance rule"), it is preferred. This ensures only cases with a clear winner are resolved—truly ambiguous cases like `Result` vs `Result<'t,string>` remain errors because each is more concrete in a different position. + +## Specification Diff + +Changes to F# Language Specification §14.4 (Method Application Resolution), Step 7: + +```diff + 7.

In C#, after type inference, a generic method with inferred concrete types is compared as if it were a concrete overload. The F# tiebreaker produces the same resolution as C# in common cases, improving interoperability with .NET libraries that rely on overloading patterns. + +## Drawbacks + +- **Silent behavior change**: Code that previously failed with `FS0041` will now compile. Developers who relied on this error as a guardrail forcing explicit annotations may find overload selection happens implicitly. + +- **Adding generic overloads can change resolution**: When a library adds a new, more generic overload, existing call sites may switch to different (now "more concrete" by comparison) overloads. + +- **Learning curve for partial order semantics**: Developers must understand why `Result` vs `Result<'t,string>` remains ambiguous (neither dominates). The dominance rule is mathematically clean but may require explanation. + +# Alternatives + +1. **Do nothing**: Continue requiring explicit type annotations or named arguments for disambiguation. This is the status quo but creates friction, especially when consuming .NET libraries designed with C#'s resolution rules in mind. + +2. **Full C# semantics adoption**: Implement all of C#'s "better function member" rules. This would be a larger change with more risk of breaking existing F# code. The tiebreaker approach is more conservative. + +3. **Attribute-based explicit priority**: Allow library authors to mark overloads with explicit priority (see related RFC for `OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute`). This is complementary—explicit priority could override implicit concreteness when needed. + +# Prior Art + +- **C# "better function member"** (ECMA-334 §12.6.4): C# prefers more specific overloads after type inference. Our tiebreaker aligns with this for the common cases. + +- **Scala overload resolution**: Scala has similar specificity rules preferring more specific signatures. + +- **Haskell type class resolution**: Uses specificity ordering for instance selection, though the mechanism is different. + +# SRTP Exclusion + +Methods involving statically resolved type parameters (`^T`) are **entirely excluded** from concreteness comparison. If either candidate has SRTP type parameters, SRTP type arguments, or parameter types containing SRTP type variables, the tiebreaker returns 0 (no preference) and defers to existing resolution rules. SRTP uses constraint solving, not type-parameter specificity, and mixing the two would produce incorrect results. + +# Unresolved Questions + +1. **Interaction with OverloadResolutionPriorityAttribute**: When ORPA removes candidates before type-checking, the surviving candidates may have different concreteness relationships than the original set. Should the tiebreaker's concreteness warnings account for ORPA-filtered candidates? + +2. **Rule ordering relative to NullableOptionalInterop**: The concreteness tiebreaker fires before the F# 5.0 NullableOptionalInterop rule (which compares all args including optional/named). A case where concreteness decides before nullable interop gets a chance could produce surprising results for `Nullable` overloads.
