Flow analysis: fix handling of cast patterns.
Previously, we treated cast patterns as a simple type-check, relying
on promotion machinery to supply the correct matched value type for
the inner pattern. In other words `P as T` was analyzed like `T() &&
P`. This had two unforunate consequences:
(1) If the type `T` was not a subtype of the matched value type, no
promotion occurred. So for example, if `x` had type `int?`, then
`if (x case var y as String?)` caused `y` to get an inferred type
of `int?` (which is clearly not what the user wants).
(2) Any promotions triggered inside the inner pattern would propagate
to the outer pattern. So for example, if `x` had the type
`Object?`, then `if (x case int _ as num)` caused `x` to be
promoted first to `num` and then to `int`. Although this was
sound, it seemed to me that it was strange and unexpected
behaviour, because the typical user expectation when performing a
cast is that only the type being cast to should be used for
promotion.
The solution to both of these is simple: we analyze the inner pattern
as though its matched value is distinct from the matched value
supplied to the cast, and has a static type of the cast type. Even
though in reality we know that the two values are the same, it's sound
for flow analysis to ignore that information.
Fixing this made it possible to add tests of some other patterns flow
analysis behaviours that weren't previously testable, so I've included
several tests in this CL that aren't strictly testing the change.

Monorepo is:
With depot_tools installed and on your path, create a directory for your monorepo checkout and run these commands to create a gclient solution in that directory:
mkdir monorepo cd monorepo gclient config --unmanaged https://dart.googlesource.com/monorepo gclient sync -D
This gives you a checkout in the monorepo directory that contains:
monorepo/ DEPS - the DEPS used for this gclient checkout commits.json - the pinned commits for Dart, flutter/engine, and flutter/flutter tools/ - scripts used to create monorepo DEPS engine/src/ - the flutter/buildroot repo flutter/ - the flutter/engine repo out/ - the build directory, where Flutter engine builds are created third_party/ - Flutter dependencies checked out by DEPS dart/ - the Dart SDK checkout. third_party - Dart dependencies, also used by Flutter flutter/ - the flutter/flutter repo
Flutter's instructions for building the engine are at Compiling the engine
They can be followed closely, with a few changes:
goma_ctl ensure_start is sufficient.Example build commands that work on linux:
MONOREPO_PATH=$PWD if [[ ! $PATH =~ (^|:)$MONOREPO_PATH/flutter/bin(:|$) ]]; then PATH=$MONOREPO_PATH/flutter/bin:$PATH fi export GOMA_DIR=$(dirname $(command -v gclient))/.cipd_bin goma_ctl ensure_start pushd engine/src flutter/tools/gn --goma --no-prebuilt-dart-sdk --unoptimized --full-dart-sdk autoninja -C out/host_debug_unopt popd
The Flutter commands used to build and run apps will use the locally built Flutter engine and Dart SDK, instead of the one downloaded by the Flutter tool, if the --local-engine option is provided.
For example, to build and run the Flutter spinning square sample on the web platform,
MONOREPO_PATH=$PWD cd flutter/examples/layers flutter --local-engine=host_debug_unopt \ -d chrome run widgets/spinning_square.dart cd $MONOREPO_PATH
To build for desktop, specify the desktop platform device in flutter run as -d macos or -d linux or -d windows. You may also need to run the command
flutter create --platforms=windows,macos,linux
on existing apps, such as sample apps. New apps created with flutter create already include these support files. Details of desktop support are at Desktop Support for Flutter
Tests in the Flutter source tree can be run with the flutter test command, run in the directory of a package containing tests. For example:
MONOREPO_PATH=$PWD cd flutter/packages/flutter flutter test --local-engine=host_debug_unopt cd $MONOREPO_PATH
Please file an issue or email the dart-engprod team with any problems with or questions about using monorepo.
We will update this documentation to address them.
flutter commands may download the engine and Dart SDK files for the configured channel, even though they will be using the local engine and its SDK.gclient sync needs to be run in an administrator session, because some installed dependencies create symlinks.
