symbol¶
A textual denotation having special meaning to the compiler. The value can be determined from the text of the basic symbol.

Описание¶
Each symbol has either symtab (local symbol table) or parent_symtab (where
this symbol is stored). One can get to parent_symtab via symtab, so only one is
present.
Each symbol has a name for easy lookup of the name of the symbol when only
having a pointer to it.
abi=Source means the symbol’s implementation is included (full ASR), otherwise it is external (interface ASR, such as procedure interface).
SubroutineCall/FunctionCall store the actual final resolved subroutine or function
(name member). They also store the original symbol (original_name), which
can be one of: null, GenericProcedure or ExternalSymbol.
When a module is compiled, it is parsed into full ASR, an object file is produced, the full ASR (abi=Source, «body» is non-empty) is transformed into interface ASR (abi=LFortran, «body» is empty). Both interface and full ASR is saved into the mod file.
When a module is used, it is first looked up in the symbol table (as either full or interface ASR) and used if it is present. Otherwise a mod file is found on the disk, loaded (as either full or interface ASR for LFortran’s mod file, depending on LFortran’s compiler options; or for GFortran’s mod file the corresponding interface ASR is constructed with abi=GFortran) and used. After the ASR is loaded, the symbols that are used are represented as ExternalSymbols in the current scope of the symbol table.
ExternalSymbol represents symbols that cannot be looked up in the current scoped
symbol table. As an example, if a variable is defined in a module, but used in a
nested subroutine, that is not an external symbol because it can be resolved in
the current symbol table (nested subroutine) by following the parents. However
if a symbol is used from a different module, then it is an external symbol,
because usual symbol resolution by going to the parents will not find the
definition. The module_name member is the name of the module the symbol is in,
the scope_names is a list of names if the symbol is in a nested symbol table.
For example if it is a local variable in a function f that is nested in function
g, then scope_names=[g, f].
REPL: each cell is parsed into full ASR, compiled + executed, the full ASR is transformed into interface ASR (abi=LFortran) and kept in the symbol table. A new cell starts with an empty symbol table, whose parent symbol table is the previous cell. That allows function / declaration shadowing.
Symbols in LFortran are:
