## Summary
`ty` does not understand that calls to functions which have been
annotated as having a return type of `Never` / `NoReturn` are terminal.
This PR fixes that, by adding new reachability constraints when call
expressions are seen. If the call expression evaluates to `Never`, the
code following it will be considered to be unreachable. Note that, for
adding these constraints, we only consider call expressions at the
statement level, and that too only inside function scopes. This is
because otherwise, the number of such constraints becomes too high, and
evaluating them later on during type inference results in a major
performance degradation.
Fixes https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/180
## Test Plan
New mdtests.
## Ecosystem changes
This PR removes the following false-positives:
- "Function can implicitly return `None`, which is not assignable to
...".
- "Name `foo` used when possibly not defind" - because the branch in
which it is not defined has a `NoReturn` call, or when `foo` was
imported in a `try`, and the except had a `NoReturn` call.

This PR updates our unpacking assignment logic to use the new tuple
machinery. As a result, we can now unpack variable-length tuples
correctly.
As part of this, the `TupleSpec` classes have been renamed to `Tuple`,
and can now contain any element (Rust) type, not just `Type<'db>`. The
unpacker uses a tuple of `UnionBuilder`s to maintain the types that will
be assigned to each target, as we iterate through potentially many union
elements on the rhs. We also add a new consuming iterator for tuples,
and update the `all_elements` methods to wrap the result in an enum
(similar to `itertools::Position`) letting you know which part of the
tuple each element appears in. I also added a new
`UnionBuilder::try_build`, which lets you specify a different fallback
type if the union contains no elements.
## Summary
Having a recursive type method to check whether a type is fully static
is inefficient, unnecessary, and makes us overly strict about subtyping
relations.
It's inefficient because we end up re-walking the same types many times
to check for fully-static-ness.
It's unnecessary because we can check relations involving the dynamic
type appropriately, depending whether the relation is subtyping or
assignability.
We use the subtyping relation to simplify unions and intersections. We
can usefully consider that `S <: T` for gradual types also, as long as
it remains true that `S | T` is equivalent to `T` and `S & T` is
equivalent to `S`.
One conservative definition (implemented here) that satisfies this
requirement is that we consider `S <: T` if, for every possible pair of
materializations `S'` and `T'`, `S' <: T'`. Or put differently the top
materialization of `S` (`S+` -- the union of all possible
materializations of `S`) is a subtype of the bottom materialization of
`T` (`T-` -- the intersection of all possible materializations of `T`).
In the most basic cases we can usefully say that `Any <: object` and
that `Never <: Any`, and we can handle more complex cases inductively
from there.
This definition of subtyping for gradual subtypes is not reflexive
(`Any` is not a subtype of `Any`).
As a corollary, we also remove `is_gradual_equivalent_to` --
`is_equivalent_to` now has the meaning that `is_gradual_equivalent_to`
used to have. If necessary, we could restore an
`is_fully_static_equivalent_to` or similar (which would not do an
`is_fully_static` pre-check of the types, but would instead pass a
relation-kind enum down through a recursive equivalence check, similar
to `has_relation_to`), but so far this doesn't appear to be necessary.
Credit to @JelleZijlstra for the observation that `is_fully_static` is
unnecessary and overly restrictive on subtyping.
There is another possible definition of gradual subtyping: instead of
requiring that `S+ <: T-`, we could instead require that `S+ <: T+` and
`S- <: T-`. In other words, instead of requiring all materializations of
`S` to be a subtype of every materialization of `T`, we just require
that every materialization of `S` be a subtype of _some_ materialization
of `T`, and that every materialization of `T` be a supertype of some
materialization of `S`. This definition also preserves the core
invariant that `S <: T` implies that `S | T = T` and `S & T = S`, and it
restores reflexivity: under this definition, `Any` is a subtype of
`Any`, and for any equivalent types `S` and `T`, `S <: T` and `T <: S`.
But unfortunately, this definition breaks transitivity of subtyping,
because nominal subclasses in Python use assignability ("consistent
subtyping") to define acceptable overrides. This means that we may have
a class `A` with `def method(self) -> Any` and a subtype `B(A)` with
`def method(self) -> int`, since `int` is assignable to `Any`. This
means that if we have a protocol `P` with `def method(self) -> Any`, we
would have `B <: A` (from nominal subtyping) and `A <: P` (`Any` is a
subtype of `Any`), but not `B <: P` (`int` is not a subtype of `Any`).
Breaking transitivity of subtyping is not tenable, so we don't use this
definition of subtyping.
## Test Plan
Existing tests (modified in some cases to account for updated
semantics.)
Stable property tests pass at a million iterations:
`QUICKCHECK_TESTS=1000000 cargo test -p ty_python_semantic -- --ignored
types::property_tests::stable`
### Changes to property test type generation
Since we no longer have a method of categorizing built types as
fully-static or not-fully-static, I had to add a previously-discussed
feature to the property tests so that some tests can build types that
are known by construction to be fully static, because there are still
properties that only apply to fully-static types (for example,
reflexiveness of subtyping.)
## Changes to handling of `*args, **kwargs` signatures
This PR "discovered" that, once we allow non-fully-static types to
participate in subtyping under the above definitions, `(*args: Any,
**kwargs: Any) -> Any` is now a subtype of `() -> object`. This is true,
if we take a literal interpretation of the former signature: all
materializations of the parameters `*args: Any, **kwargs: Any` can
accept zero arguments, making the former signature a subtype of the
latter. But the spec actually says that `*args: Any, **kwargs: Any`
should be interpreted as equivalent to `...`, and that makes a
difference here: `(...) -> Any` is not a subtype of `() -> object`,
because (unlike a literal reading of `(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any)`),
`...` can materialize to _any_ signature, including a signature with
required positional arguments.
This matters for this PR because it makes the "any two types are both
assignable to their union" property test fail if we don't implement the
equivalence to `...`. Because `FunctionType.__call__` has the signature
`(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> Any`, and if we take that at face value
it's a subtype of `() -> object`, making `FunctionType` a subtype of `()
-> object)` -- but then a function with a required argument is also a
subtype of `FunctionType`, but not a subtype of `() -> object`. So I
went ahead and implemented the equivalence to `...` in this PR.
## Ecosystem analysis
* Most of the ecosystem report are cases of improved union/intersection
simplification. For example, we can now simplify a union like `bool |
(bool & Unknown) | Unknown` to simply `bool | Unknown`, because we can
now observe that every possible materialization of `bool & Unknown` is
still a subtype of `bool` (whereas before we would set aside `bool &
Unknown` as a not-fully-static type.) This is clearly an improvement.
* The `possibly-unresolved-reference` errors in sockeye, pymongo,
ignite, scrapy and others are true positives for conditional imports
that were formerly silenced by bogus conflicting-declarations (which we
currently don't issue a diagnostic for), because we considered two
different declarations of `Unknown` to be conflicting (we used
`is_equivalent_to` not `is_gradual_equivalent_to`). In this PR that
distinction disappears and all equivalence is gradual, so a declaration
of `Unknown` no longer conflicts with a declaration of `Unknown`, which
then results in us surfacing the possibly-unbound error.
* We will now issue "redundant cast" for casting from a typevar with a
gradual bound to the same typevar (the hydra-zen diagnostic). This seems
like an improvement.
* The new diagnostics in bandersnatch are interesting. For some reason
primer in CI seems to be checking bandersnatch on Python 3.10 (not yet
sure why; this doesn't happen when I run it locally). But bandersnatch
uses `enum.StrEnum`, which doesn't exist on 3.10. That makes the `class
SimpleDigest(StrEnum)` a class that inherits from `Unknown` (and
bypasses our current TODO handling for accessing attributes on enum
classes, since we don't recognize it as an enum class at all). This PR
improves our understanding of assignability to classes that inherit from
`Any` / `Unknown`, and we now recognize that a string literal is not
assignable to a class inheriting `Any` or `Unknown`.
## Summary
This PR resolves the way diagnostics are reported for an invalid call to
an overloaded function.
If any of the steps in the overload call evaluation algorithm yields a
matching overload but it's type checking that failed, the
`no-matching-overload` diagnostic is incorrect because there is a
matching overload, it's the arguments passed that are invalid as per the
signature. So, this PR improves that by surfacing the diagnostics on the
matching overload directly.
It also provides additional context, specifically the matching overload
where this error occurred and other non-matching overloads. Consider the
following example:
```py
from typing import overload
@overload
def f() -> None: ...
@overload
def f(x: int) -> int: ...
@overload
def f(x: int, y: int) -> int: ...
def f(x: int | None = None, y: int | None = None) -> int | None:
return None
f("a")
```

## Test Plan
Update test cases, resolve existing todos and validate the updated
snapshots.
## Summary
Part of [#111](https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/111).
After this change, dataclasses with two or more `KW_ONLY` field will be
reported as invalid. The duplicate fields will simply be ignored when
computing `__init__`'s signature.
## Test Plan
Markdown tests.
## Summary
This optimizes some of the logic added in
https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/pull/18444. In general, we only
calculate information for subdiagnostics if we know we'll actually emit
the diagnostic. The check to see whether we'll emit the diagnostic is
work we'll definitely have to do whereas the the work to gather
information for a subdiagnostic isn't work we necessarily have to do if
the diagnostic isn't going to be emitted at all.
This PR makes us lazier about gathering the information we need for the
subdiagnostic, and moves all the subdiagnostic logic into one function
rather than having some `unresolved-reference` subdiagnostic logic in
`infer.rs` and some in `diagnostic.rs`.
## Test Plan
`cargo test -p ty_python_semantic`
## Summary
Closes https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/502.
In the following example:
```py
class Foo:
x: int
def method(self):
y = x
```
The user may intended to use `y = self.x` in `method`.
This is now added as a subdiagnostic in the following form :
`info: An attribute with the same name as 'x' is defined, consider using
'self.x'`
## Test Plan
Added mdtest with snapshot diagnostics.
This PR adds initial support for listing all attributes of
an object. It is exposed through a new `all_members`
routine in `ty_extensions`, which is in turn used to test
the functionality.
The purpose of listing all members is for code
completion. That is, given a `object.<CURSOR>`, we
would like to list all available attributes on
`object`.
## Summary
Partially implement https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/538,
```py
from pathlib import Path
def setup_test_project(registry_name: str, registry_url: str, project_dir: str) -> Path:
pyproject_file = Path(project_dir) / "pyproject.toml"
pyproject_file.write_text("...", encoding="utf-8")
```
As no return statement is defined in the function `setup_test_project`
with annotated return type `Path`, we provide the following diagnosis :
- error[invalid-return-type]: Function **always** implicitly returns
`None`, which is not assignable to return type `Path`
with a subdiagnostic :
- note: Consider changing your return annotation to `-> None` or adding a `return` statement
## Test Plan
mdtests with snapshots to capture the subdiagnostic. I have to mention
that existing snapshots were modified since they now fall in this
category.

## Summary
It doesn't seem to be necessary for our generics implementation to carry
the `GenericContext` in the `ClassBase` variants. Removing it simplifies
the code, fixes many TODOs about `Generic` or `Protocol` appearing
multiple times in MROs when each should only appear at most once, and
allows us to more accurately detect runtime errors that occur due to
`Generic` or `Protocol` appearing multiple times in a class's bases.
In order to remove the `GenericContext` from the `ClassBase` variant, it
turns out to be necessary to emulate
`typing._GenericAlias.__mro_entries__`, or we end up with a large number
of false-positive `inconsistent-mro` errors. This PR therefore also does
that.
Lastly, this PR fixes the inferred MROs of PEP-695 generic classes,
which implicitly inherit from `Generic` even if they have no explicit
bases.

## Summary
Add an additional info diagnostic to `unresolved-import` check to hint
to users that they should make sure their Python environment is properly
configured for ty, linking them to the corresponding doc. This
diagnostic is only shown when an import is not relative, e.g., `import
maturin` not `import .maturin`.
## Test Plan
Updated snapshots with new info message and reran tests.
## Summary
Add a new diagnostic hint if you try to use PEP 604 `X | Y` union syntax
in a non-type-expression before 3.10.

## Test Plan
New snapshot test
This makes an easy tweak to allow our diagnostics for unmatched
overloads to apply to method calls. Previously, they only worked for
function calls.
There is at least one other case worth addressing too, namely, class
literals. e.g., `type()`. We had a diagnostic snapshot test case to
track it.
Closesastral-sh/ty#274
The diagnostic now includes a pointer to the implementation definition
along with each possible overload.
This doesn't include information about *why* each overload failed. But
given the emphasis on concise output (since there can be *many*
unmatched overloads), it's not totally clear how to include that
additional information.
Fixes#274
## Summary
If the user tries to use a new builtin on an old Python version, tell
them what Python version the builtin was added on, what our inferred
Python version is for their project, and what configuration settings
they can tweak to fix the error.
## Test Plan
Snapshots and screenshots:
This makes one very simple change: we report all call binding
errors from each union variant.
This does result in duplicate-seeming diagnostics. For example,
when two union variants are invalid for the same reason.
This does a deeper removal of the `lint:` prefix by removing the
`DiagnosticId::as_str` method and replacing it with `as_concise_str`. We
remove the associated error type and simplify the `Display` impl for
`DiagnosticId` as well.
This turned out to catch a `lint:` that was still in the diagnostic
output: the part that says why a lint is enabled.
We just set the ID on the `Message` and it just does what we want in
this case. I think I didn't do this originally because I was trying to
preserve the existing rendering? I'm not sure. I might have just missed
this method.
In a subsequent commit, we're going to start using `annotate-snippets`'s
functionality for diagnostic IDs in the rendering. As part of doing
that, I wanted to remove this special casing of an empty message. I did
that independently to see what, if anything, would change. (The changes
look fine to me. They'll be tweaked again in the next commit along with
a bunch of others.)
