*** General ***
wenzelm@46464
     8
wenzelm@46485
     9
* Prover IDE (PIDE) improvements:
wenzelm@46485
    10
wenzelm@46485
    11
  - markup for bound variables
wenzelm@46485
    12
  - markup for types of term variables (e.g. displayed as tooltips)
wenzelm@47827
    13
  - support for user-defined Isar commands within the running session
wenzelm@46485
    14
wenzelm@47356
    15
* Updated and extended reference manuals ("isar-ref" and
wenzelm@47356
    16
"implementation"); reduced remaining material in old "ref" manual.
wenzelm@47356
    17
wenzelm@46464
    18
* Rule attributes in local theory declarations (e.g. locale or class)
wenzelm@46464
    19
are now statically evaluated: the resulting theorem is stored instead
wenzelm@46464
    20
of the original expression.  INCOMPATIBILITY in rare situations, where
wenzelm@46464
    21
the historic accident of dynamic re-evaluation in interpretations
wenzelm@46464
    22
etc. was exploited.
wenzelm@46464
    23
wenzelm@46471
    24
* Commands 'lemmas' and 'theorems' allow local variables using 'for'
wenzelm@46471
    25
declaration, and results are standardized before being stored.  Thus
wenzelm@46471
    26
old-style "standard" after instantiation or composition of facts
wenzelm@46471
    27
becomes obsolete.  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY, due to potential change of
wenzelm@46471
    28
indices of schematic variables.
wenzelm@46471
    29
wenzelm@47354
    30
* Renamed some inner syntax categories:
wenzelm@47354
    31
wenzelm@47354
    32
    num ~> num_token
wenzelm@47354
    33
    xnum ~> xnum_token
wenzelm@47354
    34
    xstr ~> str_token
wenzelm@47354
    35
wenzelm@47354
    36
Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.  Note that in practice "num_const" or
wenzelm@47354
    37
"num_position" etc. are mainly used instead (which also include
wenzelm@47354
    38
position information via constraints).
wenzelm@46574
    39
wenzelm@47377
    40
* Simplified configuration options for syntax ambiguity: see
wenzelm@47383
    41
"syntax_ambiguity_warning" and "syntax_ambiguity_limit" in isar-ref
wenzelm@47383
    42
manual.  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@47377
    43
wenzelm@47830
    44
* Forward declaration of outer syntax keywords within the theory
wenzelm@47830
    45
header -- minor INCOMPATIBILITY for user-defined commands.  Allow new
wenzelm@47830
    46
commands to be used in the same theory where defined.
wenzelm@47830
    47
wenzelm@46464
    48
wenzelm@46005
    49
*** Pure ***
wenzelm@46005
    50
wenzelm@47774
    51
* Attribute "abs_def" turns an equation of the form "f x y == t" into
wenzelm@47774
    52
"f == %x y. t", which ensures that "simp" or "unfold" steps always
wenzelm@47774
    53
expand it.  This also works for object-logic equality.  (Formerly
wenzelm@47774
    54
undocumented feature.)
wenzelm@47774
    55
wenzelm@47364
    56
* Discontinued old "prems" fact, which used to refer to the accidental
wenzelm@47364
    57
collection of foundational premises in the context (marked as legacy
wenzelm@47364
    58
since Isabelle2011).
wenzelm@47364
    59
wenzelm@46005
    60
* Obsolete command 'types' has been discontinued.  Use 'type_synonym'
wenzelm@46005
    61
instead.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@46005
    62
bulwahn@46062
    63
* Ancient code generator for SML and its commands 'code_module',
wenzelm@46256
    64
'code_library', 'consts_code', 'types_code' have been discontinued.
haftmann@46899
    65
Use commands of the generic code generator instead.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@46256
    66
wenzelm@46256
    67
* Redundant attribute 'code_inline' has been discontinued. Use
haftmann@46899
    68
'code_unfold' instead.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@46899
    69
wenzelm@47031
    70
* Dropped attribute 'code_unfold_post' in favor of the its dual
wenzelm@47031
    71
'code_abbrev', which yields a common pattern in definitions like
haftmann@46899
    72
haftmann@46899
    73
  definition [code_abbrev]: "f = t"
haftmann@46899
    74
haftmann@46899
    75
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@46256
    76
wenzelm@46298
    77
* Sort constraints are now propagated in simultaneous statements, just
wenzelm@46298
    78
like type constraints.  INCOMPATIBILITY in rare situations, where
wenzelm@46298
    79
distinct sorts used to be assigned accidentally.  For example:
wenzelm@46298
    80
wenzelm@46298
    81
  lemma "P (x::'a::foo)" and "Q (y::'a::bar)"  -- "now illegal"
wenzelm@46298
    82
wenzelm@46298
    83
  lemma "P (x::'a)" and "Q (y::'a::bar)"
wenzelm@46298
    84
    -- "now uniform 'a::bar instead of default sort for first occurence (!)"
wenzelm@46298
    85
wenzelm@46298
    86
huffman@45974
    87
*** HOL ***
huffman@45974
    88
wenzelm@47031
    89
* Type 'a set is now a proper type constructor (just as before
wenzelm@47031
    90
Isabelle2008).  Definitions mem_def and Collect_def have disappeared.
wenzelm@47031
    91
Non-trivial INCOMPATIBILITY.  For developments keeping predicates and
wenzelm@47031
    92
sets separate, it is often sufficient to rephrase sets S accidentally
wenzelm@47031
    93
used as predicates by "%x. x : S" and predicates P accidentally used
wenzelm@47031
    94
as sets by "{x. P x}".  Corresponding proofs in a first step should be
wenzelm@47031
    95
pruned from any tinkering with former theorems mem_def and
haftmann@47701
    96
Collect_def as far as possible.
haftmann@47701
    97
For developments which deliberately mixed predicates and
wenzelm@47031
    98
sets, a planning step is necessary to determine what should become a
wenzelm@47031
    99
predicate and what a set.  It can be helpful to carry out that step in
wenzelm@47031
   100
Isabelle2011-1 before jumping right into the current release.
wenzelm@47031
   101
haftmann@47701
   102
* Code generation by default implements sets as container type rather
haftmann@47701
   103
than predicates.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@47701
   104
nipkow@47201
   105
* New type synonym 'a rel = ('a * 'a) set
nipkow@47201
   106
haftmann@47620
   107
* More default pred/set conversions on a couple of relation operations
haftmann@47620
   108
and predicates.  Consolidation of some relation theorems:
haftmann@47620
   109
haftmann@47620
   110
  converse_def ~> converse_unfold
haftmann@47620
   111
  rel_comp_def ~> rel_comp_unfold
haftmann@47620
   112
  symp_def ~> (dropped, use symp_def and sym_def instead)
haftmann@47620
   113
  transp_def ~> transp_trans
haftmann@47620
   114
  Domain_def ~> Domain_unfold
haftmann@47620
   115
  Range_def ~> Domain_converse [symmetric]
haftmann@47620
   116
haftmann@47620
   117
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@47620
   118
wenzelm@47031
   119
* Consolidated various theorem names relating to Finite_Set.fold
wenzelm@47031
   120
combinator:
wenzelm@47031
   121
haftmann@47016
   122
  inf_INFI_fold_inf ~> inf_INF_fold_inf
haftmann@47016
   123
  sup_SUPR_fold_sup ~> sup_SUP_fold_sup
haftmann@47016
   124
  INFI_fold_inf ~> INF_fold_inf
haftmann@47016
   125
  SUPR_fold_sup ~> SUP_fold_sup
haftmann@47016
   126
  union_set ~> union_set_fold
haftmann@47016
   127
  minus_set ~> minus_set_fold
haftmann@47620
   128
haftmann@47016
   129
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@47016
   130
haftmann@47003
   131
* Consolidated theorem names concerning fold combinators:
wenzelm@47031
   132
haftmann@47003
   133
  INFI_set_fold ~> INF_set_fold
haftmann@47003
   134
  SUPR_set_fold ~> SUP_set_fold
haftmann@47003
   135
  INF_code ~> INF_set_foldr
haftmann@47003
   136
  SUP_code ~> SUP_set_foldr
haftmann@47003
   137
  foldr.simps ~> foldr_Nil foldr_Cons (in point-free formulation)
haftmann@47003
   138
  foldl.simps ~> foldl_Nil foldl_Cons
haftmann@47003
   139
  foldr_fold_rev ~> foldr_def
haftmann@47003
   140
  foldl_fold ~> foldl_def
wenzelm@47031
   141
haftmann@47003
   142
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@47003
   143
wenzelm@47031
   144
* Dropped rarely useful theorems concerning fold combinators:
wenzelm@47031
   145
foldl_apply, foldl_fun_comm, foldl_rev, fold_weak_invariant,
wenzelm@47031
   146
rev_foldl_cons, fold_set_remdups, fold_set, fold_set1,
wenzelm@47031
   147
concat_conv_foldl, foldl_weak_invariant, foldl_invariant,
wenzelm@47031
   148
foldr_invariant, foldl_absorb0, foldl_foldr1_lemma, foldl_foldr1,
wenzelm@47031
   149
listsum_conv_fold, listsum_foldl, sort_foldl_insort.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@47031
   150
Prefer "List.fold" with canonical argument order, or boil down
wenzelm@47031
   151
"List.foldr" and "List.foldl" to "List.fold" by unfolding "foldr_def"
wenzelm@47031
   152
and "foldl_def".  For the common phrases "%xs. List.foldr plus xs 0"
haftmann@47003
   153
and "List.foldl plus 0", prefer "List.listsum".
haftmann@47003
   154
krauss@47399
   155
* Congruence rules Option.map_cong and Option.bind_cong for recursion
krauss@47399
   156
through option types.
krauss@47399
   157
wenzelm@46996
   158
* Concrete syntax for case expressions includes constraints for source
wenzelm@46996
   159
positions, and thus produces Prover IDE markup for its bindings.
wenzelm@46996
   160
INCOMPATIBILITY for old-style syntax translations that augment the
wenzelm@46996
   161
pattern notation; e.g. see src/HOL/HOLCF/One.thy for translations of
wenzelm@46996
   162
one_case.
wenzelm@46996
   163
wenzelm@46997
   164
* Discontinued configuration option "syntax_positions": atomic terms
wenzelm@46997
   165
in parse trees are always annotated by position constraints.
wenzelm@46997
   166
haftmann@46862
   167
* Finite_Set.fold now qualified.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@46862
   168
wenzelm@47031
   169
* Renamed some facts on canonical fold on lists, in order to avoid
wenzelm@47031
   170
problems with interpretation involving corresponding facts on foldl
wenzelm@47031
   171
with the same base names:
haftmann@46859
   172
haftmann@46859
   173
  fold_set_remdups ~> fold_set_fold_remdups
haftmann@46859
   174
  fold_set ~> fold_set_fold
haftmann@46859
   175
  fold1_set ~> fold1_set_fold
haftmann@46859
   176
haftmann@46859
   177
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@46859
   178
bulwahn@47191
   179
* Renamed facts about the power operation on relations, i.e., relpow
bulwahn@47191
   180
  to match the constant's name:
bulwahn@47191
   181

   182
  rel_pow_1 ~> relpow_1
bulwahn@47191

bulwahn@47191
   207
INCOMPATIBILITY.
bulwahn@47191
   208
bulwahn@47110
   209
* New theory HOL/Library/DAList provides an abstract type for association
bulwahn@47110
   210
  lists with distinct keys.
bulwahn@46745
   211
wenzelm@46712
   212
* 'datatype' specifications allow explicit sort constraints.
wenzelm@46712
   213
wenzelm@47031
   214
* Theory HOL/Library/Diagonalize has been removed. INCOMPATIBILITY,
wenzelm@47031
   215
use theory HOL/Library/Nat_Bijection instead.
wenzelm@47031
   216
wenzelm@47031
   217
* Session HOL-Word: Discontinued many redundant theorems specific to
wenzelm@47031
   218
type 'a word. INCOMPATIBILITY, use the corresponding generic theorems
wenzelm@47031
   219
instead.

* New "case_product" attribute to generate a case rule doing multiple
wenzelm@46256

case distinctions at the same time.  E.g.
wenzelm@46256
   317
wenzelm@46256
   318
  list.exhaust [case_product nat.exhaust]
wenzelm@46256

   321
a list and a nat.
wenzelm@46256
   322
bulwahn@47041
   323
* Improved code generation of multisets.
bulwahn@47041
   324
bulwahn@47462
   325
* New diagnostic command find_unused_assms to find potentially superfluous
bulwahn@47462
   326
  assumptions in theorems using Quickcheck.
bulwahn@47462
   327
bulwahn@46630
   328
* Quickcheck:
bulwahn@46630
   329
  - Quickcheck returns variable assignments as counterexamples, which
bulwahn@46630
   330
    allows to reveal the underspecification of functions under test.
bulwahn@46630
   331
    For example, refuting "hd xs = x", it presents the variable
bulwahn@46630
   332
    assignment xs = [] and x = a1 as a counterexample, assuming that
bulwahn@46630
   333
    any property is false whenever "hd []" occurs in it.
bulwahn@46630
   334
    These counterexample are marked as potentially spurious, as
bulwahn@46630
   335
    Quickcheck also returns "xs = []" as a counterexample to the
bulwahn@46630
   336
    obvious theorem "hd xs = hd xs".
bulwahn@46630
   337
    After finding a potentially spurious counterexample, Quickcheck
bulwahn@46630
   338
    continues searching for genuine ones.
bulwahn@46630
   339
    By default, Quickcheck shows potentially spurious and genuine
bulwahn@46630
   340
    counterexamples. The option "genuine_only" sets quickcheck to
bulwahn@46630
   341
    only show genuine counterexamples.
bulwahn@46812
   342
bulwahn@46812
   343
  - The command 'quickcheck_generator' creates random and exhaustive
bulwahn@46812
   344
    value generators for a given type and operations.
bulwahn@46812
   345
    It generates values by using the operations as if they were
bulwahn@46812
   346
    constructors of that type. 
bulwahn@47041
   347
bulwahn@47041
   348
  - Support for multisets.
bulwahn@47041
   349
bulwahn@47462
   350
  - Added "use_subtype" options.
bulwahn@47462
   351
 
blanchet@46266
   352
* Nitpick:
blanchet@46387
   353
  - Fixed infinite loop caused by the 'peephole_optim' option and
blanchet@46387
   354
    affecting 'rat' and 'real'.
blanchet@46387
   355
blanchet@46387
   356
* Sledgehammer:
blanchet@47237
   357
  - Added "lam_trans", "uncurry_aliases", and "minimize" options.
blanchet@46577
   358
  - Renamed "slicing" ("no_slicing") option to "slice" ("dont_slice").
blanchet@47129
   359
  - Renamed "sound" option to "strict".
blanchet@46387
   360
blanchet@46387
   361
* Metis:
blanchet@46387
   362
  - Added possibility to specify lambda translations scheme as a
blanchet@47194
   363
    parenthesized argument (e.g., "by (metis (lifting) ...)").
blanchet@46266
   364
blanchet@47512
   365
* Command 'try0':
blanchet@47512
   366
  - Renamed from 'try_methods'. INCOMPATIBILITY.
blanchet@47512
   367
noschinl@47756
   368
* New "eventually_elim" method as a generalized variant of the

   380
from a minor keyword introduced via theory header declaration.
wenzelm@47822
   381
wenzelm@47836
   382
* Antiquotation @{command_spec "name"} produces the
wenzelm@47836
   383
Outer_Syntax.command_spec from a major keyword introduced via theory
wenzelm@47836
   384
header declaration; it can be passed to Outer_Syntax.command etc.
wenzelm@47836
   385
wenzelm@47798
   386
* Local_Theory.define no longer hard-wires default theorem name
wenzelm@47798
   387
"foo_def": definitional packages need to make this explicit, and may
wenzelm@47798
   388
choose to omit theorem bindings for definitions by using
wenzelm@47798
   389
Binding.empty/Attrib.empty_binding.  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY for
wenzelm@47798
   390
derived definitional packages.
wenzelm@47798
   391
wenzelm@47368
   392
* Renamed Thm.capply to Thm.apply, and Thm.cabs to Thm.lambda in
wenzelm@47368
   393
conformance with similar operations in structure Term and Logic.
wenzelm@47368
   394
wenzelm@46463
   395
* Antiquotation @{attributes [...]} embeds attribute source
wenzelm@46463
   396
representation into the ML text, which is particularly useful with
wenzelm@46463
   397
declarations like Local_Theory.note.

wenzelm@45999
   401
wenzelm@46164
   402
* Refined Local_Theory.declaration {syntax, pervasive}, with subtle

*** General ***
wenzelm@42577
   427
wenzelm@45631
   428
* Improved Isabelle/jEdit Prover IDE (PIDE), which can be invoked as
wenzelm@45839
   429
"isabelle jedit" or "ISABELLE_HOME/Isabelle" on the command line.
wenzelm@45631
   430
wenzelm@45648
   431
  - Management of multiple theory files directly from the editor
wenzelm@45631
   432
    buffer store -- bypassing the file-system (no requirement to save
wenzelm@45631
   433
    files for checking).
wenzelm@45631
   434
wenzelm@45648
   435
  - Markup of formal entities within the text buffer, with semantic
wenzelm@45631
   436
    highlighting, tooltips and hyperlinks to jump to defining source
wenzelm@45631
   437
    positions.
wenzelm@45631
   438
wenzelm@45648
   439
  - Improved text rendering, with sub/superscripts in the source
wenzelm@45648
   440
    buffer (including support for copy/paste wrt. output panel, HTML
wenzelm@45648
   441
    theory output and other non-Isabelle text boxes).
wenzelm@45648
   442
wenzelm@45648
   443
  - Refined scheduling of proof checking and printing of results,
wenzelm@45631
   444
    based on interactive editor view.  (Note: jEdit folding and
wenzelm@45631
   445
    narrowing allows to restrict buffer perspectives explicitly.)
wenzelm@45631
   446
wenzelm@45648
   447
  - Reduced CPU performance requirements, usable on machines with few
wenzelm@45631
   448
    cores.
wenzelm@45631
   449
wenzelm@45648
   450
  - Reduced memory requirements due to pruning of unused document
wenzelm@45631
   451
    versions (garbage collection).

   454
including some remaining limitations.
wenzelm@45631
   455
wenzelm@42759
   456
* Theory loader: source files are exclusively located via the master
wenzelm@42759
   457
directory of each theory node (where the .thy file itself resides).
ballarin@44390
   458
The global load path (such as src/HOL/Library) has been discontinued.
ballarin@44390
   459
Note that the path element ~~ may be used to reference theories in the
ballarin@44390
   460
Isabelle home folder -- for instance, "~~/src/HOL/Library/FuncSet".
ballarin@44390
   461
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@42759
   462
wenzelm@45671
   463
* Theory loader: source files are identified by content via SHA1
wenzelm@45671
   464
digests.  Discontinued former path/modtime identification and optional
wenzelm@45671
   465
ISABELLE_FILE_IDENT plugin scripts.
wenzelm@45671
   466
wenzelm@45671
   467
* Parallelization of nested Isar proofs is subject to
wenzelm@45671
   468
Goal.parallel_proofs_threshold (default 100).  See also isabelle
wenzelm@45671
   469
usedir option -Q.
wenzelm@45671
   470
wenzelm@43542
   471
* Name space: former unsynchronized references are now proper
wenzelm@43542
   472
configuration options, with more conventional names:
wenzelm@43542
   473
wenzelm@43542
   474
  long_names   ~> names_long
wenzelm@43542
   475
  short_names  ~> names_short
wenzelm@43542
   476
  unique_names ~> names_unique
wenzelm@43542
   477
wenzelm@43542
   478
Minor INCOMPATIBILITY, need to declare options in context like this:
wenzelm@43542
   479
wenzelm@43542
   480
  declare [[names_unique = false]]
wenzelm@43229
   481
wenzelm@43373
   482
* Literal facts `prop` may contain dummy patterns, e.g. `_ = _`.  Note
wenzelm@43373
   483
that the result needs to be unique, which means fact specifications
wenzelm@43373
   484
may have to be refined after enriching a proof context.
wenzelm@43373
   485
wenzelm@45671
   486
* Attribute "case_names" has been refined: the assumptions in each case
wenzelm@45671
   487
can be named now by following the case name with [name1 name2 ...].
wenzelm@45671
   488
wenzelm@45839
   489
* Isabelle/Isar reference manual has been updated and extended:
wenzelm@45839
   490
  - "Synopsis" provides a catalog of main Isar language concepts.
wenzelm@45839
   491
  - Formal references in syntax diagrams, via @{rail} antiquotation.
wenzelm@45839
   492
  - Updated material from classic "ref" manual, notably about
wenzelm@45839
   493
    "Classical Reasoner".

haftmann@44679
   500
haftmann@44811
   501
* Class complete_lattice: generalized a couple of lemmas from sets;
wenzelm@45671
   502
generalized theorems INF_cong and SUP_cong.  New type classes for
wenzelm@45671
   503
complete boolean algebras and complete linear orders.  Lemmas

generalized.  Now it is defined on the type class {topological_space,
wenzelm@45838

wenzelm@43355
   683
huffman@45779
   684
* Theory Complex_Main: The complex exponential function "expi" is now
huffman@45779
   685
a type-constrained abbreviation for "exp :: complex => complex"; thus
huffman@45779
   686
several polymorphic lemmas about "exp" are now applicable to "expi".
huffman@45779
   687
wenzelm@45839
   688
* Code generation:
wenzelm@45839
   689
wenzelm@45839
   690
  - Theory Library/Code_Char_ord provides native ordering of
wenzelm@45839
   691
    characters in the target language.
wenzelm@45839
   692
wenzelm@45839
   693
  - Commands code_module and code_library are legacy, use export_code
wenzelm@45839
   694
    instead.
wenzelm@45839
   695
wenzelm@45839
   696
  - Method "evaluation" is legacy, use method "eval" instead.
wenzelm@45839
   697
wenzelm@45839
   698
  - Legacy evaluator "SML" is deactivated by default.  May be
wenzelm@45839
   699
    reactivated by the following theory command:
wenzelm@45839
   700
wenzelm@45839
   701
      setup {* Value.add_evaluator ("SML", Codegen.eval_term) *}

   703
* Declare ext [intro] by default.  Rare INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   704
wenzelm@45959
   705
* New proof method "induction" that gives induction hypotheses the
wenzelm@45959
   706
name "IH", thus distinguishing them from further hypotheses that come
wenzelm@45959
   707
from rule induction.  The latter are still called "hyps".  Method
wenzelm@45959
   708
"induction" is a thin wrapper around "induct" and follows the same
wenzelm@45959
   709
syntax.
wenzelm@45959
   710
wenzelm@45839
   711
* Method "fastsimp" has been renamed to "fastforce", but "fastsimp" is
wenzelm@45839
   712
still available as a legacy feature for some time.
wenzelm@45839
   713
wenzelm@45839
   714
* Nitpick:
wenzelm@45839
   715
  - Added "need" and "total_consts" options.
wenzelm@45839
   716
  - Reintroduced "show_skolems" option by popular demand.
wenzelm@45839
   717
  - Renamed attribute: nitpick_def ~> nitpick_unfold.
wenzelm@45839
   718
    INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   719
wenzelm@45839

* Sledgehammer:
wenzelm@45839
   721
  - Use quasi-sound (and efficient) translations by default.
wenzelm@45839
   722
  - Added support for the following provers: E-ToFoF, LEO-II,
wenzelm@45839
   723
    Satallax, SNARK, Waldmeister, and Z3 with TPTP syntax.
wenzelm@45839
   724
  - Automatically preplay and minimize proofs before showing them if
wenzelm@45839
   725
    this can be done within reasonable time.
wenzelm@45839
   726
  - sledgehammer available_provers ~> sledgehammer supported_provers.
wenzelm@45839
   727
    INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   728
  - Added "preplay_timeout", "slicing", "type_enc", "sound",
wenzelm@45839
   729
    "max_mono_iters", and "max_new_mono_instances" options.
wenzelm@45839
   730
  - Removed "explicit_apply" and "full_types" options as well as "Full
wenzelm@45839
   731
    Types" Proof General menu item. INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   732
wenzelm@45839
   733
* Metis:
wenzelm@45839
   734
  - Removed "metisF" -- use "metis" instead. INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   735
  - Obsoleted "metisFT" -- use "metis (full_types)" instead.
wenzelm@45839
   736
    INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   737
wenzelm@45839
   738
* Command 'try':
wenzelm@45839
   739
  - Renamed 'try_methods' and added "simp:", "intro:", "dest:", and
wenzelm@45839
   740
    "elim:" options. INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   741
  - Introduced 'try' that not only runs 'try_methods' but also
wenzelm@45839
   742
    'solve_direct', 'sledgehammer', 'quickcheck', and 'nitpick'.
wenzelm@45839
   743
wenzelm@45839
   744
* Quickcheck:
wenzelm@45839
   745
  - Added "eval" option to evaluate terms for the found counterexample
wenzelm@45839
   746
    (currently only supported by the default (exhaustive) tester).
wenzelm@45839
   747
  - Added post-processing of terms to obtain readable counterexamples
wenzelm@45839
   748
    (currently only supported by the default (exhaustive) tester).
wenzelm@45839
   749
  - New counterexample generator quickcheck[narrowing] enables
wenzelm@45839
   750
    narrowing-based testing.  Requires the Glasgow Haskell compiler
wenzelm@45839
   751
    with its installation location defined in the Isabelle settings
wenzelm@45839
   752
    environment as ISABELLE_GHC.
wenzelm@45839
   753
  - Removed quickcheck tester "SML" based on the SML code generator
wenzelm@45839
   754
    (formly in HOL/Library).
wenzelm@45839
   755
wenzelm@45839
   756
* Function package: discontinued option "tailrec".  INCOMPATIBILITY,
wenzelm@45839
   757
use 'partial_function' instead.
wenzelm@45839
   758
wenzelm@45839
   759
* Theory Library/Extended_Reals replaces now the positive extended
wenzelm@45839
   760
reals found in probability theory. This file is extended by

   761
Multivariate_Analysis/Extended_Real_Limits.
wenzelm@45839
   762
wenzelm@45845
   763
* Theory Library/Old_Recdef: old 'recdef' package has been moved here,
wenzelm@45845
   764
from where it must be imported explicitly if it is really required.
wenzelm@45845
   765
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   766
wenzelm@45839
   767
* Theory Library/Wfrec: well-founded recursion combinator "wfrec" has
wenzelm@45839
   768
been moved here.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   769
wenzelm@45839
   770
* Theory Library/Saturated provides type of numbers with saturated
wenzelm@45839
   771
arithmetic.
wenzelm@45839
   772
wenzelm@45839
   773
* Theory Library/Product_Lattice defines a pointwise ordering for the
wenzelm@45839
   774
product type 'a * 'b, and provides instance proofs for various order
wenzelm@45839
   775
and lattice type classes.
wenzelm@45839
   776
wenzelm@45839
   777
* Theory Library/Countable now provides the "countable_datatype" proof
wenzelm@45839
   778
method for proving "countable" class instances for datatypes.
wenzelm@45839
   779
wenzelm@45839
   780
* Theory Library/Cset_Monad allows do notation for computable sets
wenzelm@45839
   781
(cset) via the generic monad ad-hoc overloading facility.
wenzelm@45839
   782
wenzelm@45839
   783
* Library: Theories of common data structures are split into theories
wenzelm@45839
   784
for implementation, an invariant-ensuring type, and connection to an
wenzelm@45839
   785
abstract type. INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@45839
   786
wenzelm@45839
   787
  - RBT is split into RBT and RBT_Mapping.
wenzelm@45839
   788
  - AssocList is split and renamed into AList and AList_Mapping.

* Session Multivariate_Analysis: The euclidean_space type class now
wenzelm@45839
   806
fixes a constant "Basis :: 'a set" consisting of the standard
wenzelm@45839
   807
orthonormal basis for the type. Users now have the option of
wenzelm@45839
   808
quantifying over this set instead of using the "basis" function, e.g.
wenzelm@45839
   809
"ALL x:Basis. P x" vs "ALL i<DIM('a). P (basis i)".
wenzelm@45839
   810

to "('a, 'b) vec" (the syntax "'a ^ 'b" remains unaffected). Constants
wenzelm@45839
   813
"Cart_nth" and "Cart_lambda" have been respectively renamed to
wenzelm@45839
   814
"vec_nth" and "vec_lambda"; theorems mentioning those names have
wenzelm@45839
   815
changed to match. Definition theorems for overloaded constants now use
wenzelm@45839
   816
the standard "foo_vec_def" naming scheme. A few other theorems have
wenzelm@45839
   817
been renamed as follows (INCOMPATIBILITY):

*** ML ***
wenzelm@42815
   944
wenzelm@44613
   945
* The inner syntax of sort/type/term/prop supports inlined YXML
wenzelm@44613
   946
representations within quoted string tokens.  By encoding logical
wenzelm@44613
   947
entities via Term_XML (in ML or Scala) concrete syntax can be
wenzelm@44613
   948
bypassed, which is particularly useful for producing bits of text

   949
under external program control.
wenzelm@44613

wenzelm@42937
   967
* Inner syntax: identifiers in parse trees of generic categories
wenzelm@42937
   968
"logic", "aprop", "idt" etc. carry position information (disguised as
wenzelm@42937
   969
type constraints).  Occasional INCOMPATIBILITY with non-compliant
wenzelm@42938
   970
translations that choke on unexpected type constraints.  Positions can
wenzelm@42938
   971
be stripped in ML translations via Syntax.strip_positions /
wenzelm@42938
   972
Syntax.strip_positions_ast, or via the syntax constant
wenzelm@42938
   973
"_strip_positions" within parse trees.  As last resort, positions can
wenzelm@42938
   974
be disabled via the configuration option Syntax.positions, which is
wenzelm@42938
   975
called "syntax_positions" in Isar attribute syntax.

* Discontinued special status of various ML structures that contribute
wenzelm@43162

wenzelm@43284
   989
* Slightly more special eq_list/eq_set, with shortcut involving
wenzelm@43284
   990
pointer equality (assumes that eq relation is reflexive).
wenzelm@43284
   991
wenzelm@43665
   992
* Classical tactics use proper Proof.context instead of historic types
wenzelm@43665
   993
claset/clasimpset.  Old-style declarations like addIs, addEs, addDs
wenzelm@43665
   994
operate directly on Proof.context.  Raw type claset retains its use as
wenzelm@43665
   995
snapshot of the classical context, which can be recovered via
wenzelm@43665
   996
(put_claset HOL_cs) etc.  Type clasimpset has been discontinued.
wenzelm@43665

* System settings: ISABELLE_HOME_USER now includes ISABELLE_IDENTIFIER
wenzelm@41843
  1053
(and thus refers to something like $HOME/.isabelle/Isabelle2011),
wenzelm@41842
  1054
while the default heap location within that directory lacks that extra
wenzelm@41842
  1055
suffix.  This isolates multiple Isabelle installations from each
wenzelm@41842
  1056
other, avoiding problems with old settings in new versions.
wenzelm@41842
  1057
INCOMPATIBILITY, need to copy/upgrade old user settings manually.
wenzelm@41842
  1058
wenzelm@41195
  1059
* Source files are always encoded as UTF-8, instead of old-fashioned
wenzelm@41195
  1060
ISO-Latin-1.  INCOMPATIBILITY.  Isabelle LaTeX documents might require
wenzelm@41196
  1061
the following package declarations:
wenzelm@41195
  1062
wenzelm@41195
  1063
  \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

  1064
  \usepackage{textcomp}
wenzelm@41195
  1065
krauss@41688
  1066
* Explicit treatment of UTF-8 sequences as Isabelle symbols, such that
wenzelm@37553
  1067
a Unicode character is treated as a single symbol, not a sequence of
wenzelm@37553
  1068
non-ASCII bytes as before.  Since Isabelle/ML string literals may
wenzelm@37553
  1069
contain symbols without further backslash escapes, Unicode can now be
wenzelm@37553
  1070
used here as well.  Recall that Symbol.explode in ML provides a
wenzelm@37553
  1071
consistent view on symbols, while raw explode (or String.explode)
wenzelm@37553
  1072
merely give a byte-oriented representation.
wenzelm@37553
  1073
wenzelm@41842
  1074
* Theory loader: source files are primarily located via the master
wenzelm@41842
  1075
directory of each theory node (where the .thy file itself resides).
wenzelm@41842
  1076
The global load path is still partially available as legacy feature.
wenzelm@41842
  1077
Minor INCOMPATIBILITY due to subtle change in file lookup: use
wenzelm@41842
  1078
explicit paths, relatively to the theory.
wenzelm@38381
  1079
wenzelm@38188
  1080
* Special treatment of ML file names has been discontinued.
wenzelm@38188
  1081
Historically, optional extensions .ML or .sml were added on demand --
wenzelm@38188
  1082
at the cost of clarity of file dependencies.  Recall that Isabelle/ML
wenzelm@38188
  1083
files exclusively use the .ML extension.  Minor INCOMPATIBILTY.
wenzelm@38188
  1084
wenzelm@39285
  1085
* Various options that affect pretty printing etc. are now properly
wenzelm@39042
  1086
handled within the context via configuration options, instead of
wenzelm@41137
  1087
unsynchronized references or print modes.  There are both ML Config.T
wenzelm@41137

lists of equations to map definitions in a locale to appropriate
ballarin@41683
  1154
entities in the context of the interpretation.  The 'interpretation'
ballarin@41683
  1155
command already provided this functionality.
ballarin@41683
  1156
wenzelm@41842
  1157
* Diagnostic command 'print_dependencies' prints the locale instances
wenzelm@41842
  1158
that would be activated if the specified expression was interpreted in
wenzelm@41842
  1159
the current context.  Variant "print_dependencies!" assumes a context
wenzelm@41842
  1160
without interpretations.
ballarin@38356

* Discontinued obsolete 'global' and 'local' commands to manipulate
wenzelm@38956
  1166
the theory name space.  Rare INCOMPATIBILITY.  The ML functions
wenzelm@38956
  1167
Sign.root_path and Sign.local_path may be applied directly where this

foundational premises in the context, is now explicitly marked as
wenzelm@41842
  1175
legacy feature and will be discontinued soon.  Consider using "assms"

* Coercive subtyping: functions can be declared as coercions and type
wenzelm@41842
  1188
inference will add them as necessary upon input of a term.  Theory
wenzelm@41842
  1189
Complex_Main declares real :: nat => real and real :: int => real as
wenzelm@41842
  1190
coercions. A coercion function f is declared like this:
wenzelm@41187
  1191
wenzelm@41187
  1192
  declare [[coercion f]]
nipkow@41109
  1193
wenzelm@41819
  1194
To lift coercions through type constructors (e.g. from nat => real to
nipkow@41109
  1195
nat list => real list), map functions can be declared, e.g.
nipkow@41109
  1196
wenzelm@41187
  1197
  declare [[coercion_map map]]
wenzelm@41187
  1198
wenzelm@41187
  1199
Currently coercion inference is activated only in theories including
wenzelm@41187
  1200
real numbers, i.e. descendants of Complex_Main.  This is controlled by
wenzelm@41268
  1201
the configuration option "coercion_enabled", e.g. it can be enabled in
wenzelm@41187
  1202
other theories like this:
wenzelm@41187
  1203
wenzelm@41187

wenzelm@41819
  1260
exhaustive testing by "quickcheck [exhaustive]".
haftmann@41646
  1261
haftmann@41646
  1262
* Quickcheck instantiates polymorphic types with small finite
haftmann@41646
  1263
datatypes by default. This enables a simple execution mechanism to
haftmann@41646
  1264
handle quantifiers and function equality over the finite datatypes.
haftmann@41646
  1265
wenzelm@41819

  1267
"random".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1268
haftmann@41646
  1269
* Quickcheck now has a configurable time limit which is set to 30
haftmann@41646
  1270
seconds by default. This can be changed by adding [timeout = n] to the
haftmann@41646
  1271
quickcheck command. The time limit for Auto Quickcheck is still set

blanchet@40240
  1297
    INCOMPATIBILITY.
blanchet@40968
  1298
  - Added support for partial quotient types.
blanchet@40968
  1299
  - Added local versions of the "Nitpick.register_xxx" functions.
blanchet@40968
  1300
  - Added "whack" option.
blanchet@40968
  1301
  - Allow registration of quotient types as codatatypes.
blanchet@40968
  1302
  - Improved "merge_type_vars" option to merge more types.
blanchet@40968
  1303
  - Removed unsound "fast_descrs" option.
blanchet@40968
  1304
  - Added custom symmetry breaking for datatypes, making it possible to reach
blanchet@40968
  1305
    higher cardinalities.
blanchet@40968
  1306
  - Prevent the expansion of too large definitions.
blanchet@40138

  1308
* Proof methods "metis" and "meson" now have configuration options
wenzelm@41819
  1309
"meson_trace", "metis_trace", and "metis_verbose" that can be enabled
wenzelm@41819
  1310
to diagnose these tools. E.g.
wenzelm@41819
  1311
wenzelm@41819
  1312
    using [[metis_trace = true]]
wenzelm@41819
  1313
haftmann@41646

  1315
manually as command 'solve_direct'.
haftmann@41646
  1316
boehmes@41846
  1317
* The default SMT solver Z3 must be enabled explicitly (due to

licensing issues) by setting the environment variable
wenzelm@41851
  1319
Z3_NON_COMMERCIAL in etc/settings of the component, for example.  For
wenzelm@41851
  1320
commercial applications, the SMT solver CVC3 is provided as fall-back;
wenzelm@41851
  1321

* Remote SMT solvers need to be referred to by the "remote_" prefix,
wenzelm@41819
  1325
i.e. "remote_cvc3" and "remote_z3".
wenzelm@41819
  1326
wenzelm@41819
  1327
* Added basic SMT support for datatypes, records, and typedefs using
wenzelm@41819
  1328
the oracle mode (no proofs).  Direct support of pairs has been dropped
wenzelm@41819
  1329
in exchange (pass theorems fst_conv snd_conv pair_collapse to the SMT
wenzelm@41819
  1330
support for a similar behavior).  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.
boehmes@41680
  1331

wenzelm@41842
  1351
* Simplification procedure "list_to_set_comprehension" rewrites list
wenzelm@41842
  1352
comprehensions applied to List.set to set comprehensions.  Occasional
wenzelm@41842
  1353

haftmann@41646
  1358
haftmann@41646
  1359
* Removed simplifier congruence rule of "prod_case", as has for long

  1360
been the case with "split".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1361
haftmann@41646
  1362
* String.literal is a type, but not a datatype.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1363
krauss@40634
  1364
* Removed [split_format ... and ... and ...] version of
krauss@40634
  1365
[split_format].  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY.
krauss@40634
  1366
wenzelm@41819
  1367
* Predicate "sorted" now defined inductively, with nice induction
wenzelm@41819

rules.  INCOMPATIBILITY: former sorted.simps now named sorted_simps.
haftmann@41646
  1369
haftmann@41646
  1370
* Constant "contents" renamed to "the_elem", to free the generic name
haftmann@41646
  1371
contents for other uses.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1372
haftmann@41646
  1373
* Renamed class eq and constant eq (for code generation) to class
haftmann@41646
  1374
equal and constant equal, plus renaming of related facts and various
haftmann@41646
  1375
tuning.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1376
haftmann@41646

* Dropped type classes mult_mono and mult_mono1.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1378
wenzelm@41819

INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1381
haftmann@41646
  1382
* Renamed theory Fset to Cset, type Fset.fset to Cset.set, in order to
haftmann@41646
  1383
avoid confusion with finite sets.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1384
haftmann@41646
  1385
* Abandoned locales equiv, congruent and congruent2 for equivalence
haftmann@41646
  1386
relations.  INCOMPATIBILITY: use equivI rather than equiv_intro (same
haftmann@41646
  1387

haftmann@41646
  1421
haftmann@41646

INCOMPATIBILITY.  Note that these were not supposed to be used
haftmann@41646
  1454
regularly unless for striking reasons; their main purpose was code
haftmann@41646
  1455
generation.
haftmann@41646
  1456
haftmann@41646
  1457
Various operations from the Haskell prelude are used for generating

  1458
Haskell code.
haftmann@41646
  1459
wenzelm@41819
  1460
* Term "bij f" is now an abbreviation of "bij_betw f UNIV UNIV".  Term
wenzelm@41819
  1461
"surj f" is now an abbreviation of "range f = UNIV".  The theorems
wenzelm@41819
  1462
bij_def and surj_def are unchanged.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1463
haftmann@41646
  1464
* Abolished some non-alphabetic type names: "prod" and "sum" replace

  1465
"*" and "+" respectively.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1466
haftmann@41646

  1468
"Sum_Type.Plus" instead.
haftmann@41646
  1469
haftmann@41646
  1470
* Constant "split" has been merged with constant "prod_case"; names of
haftmann@41646
  1471
ML functions, facts etc. involving split have been retained so far,
haftmann@41646
  1472
though.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1473
haftmann@41646
  1474
* Dropped old infix syntax "_ mem _" for List.member; use "_ : set _"

  1475
instead.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@41646
  1476
wenzelm@41819

* Session Multivariate_Analysis: introduced a type class for euclidean
wenzelm@41842
  1504

finite type. Finite cartesian products of euclidean spaces, products
wenzelm@41842
  1520

be euclidean_spaces.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@41842
  1522
wenzelm@41842
  1523
* Session Probability: introduced pextreal as positive extended real
wenzelm@41842
  1524
numbers.  Use pextreal as value for measures.  Introduce the
wenzelm@41842
  1525
Radon-Nikodym derivative, product spaces and Fubini's theorem for
wenzelm@41842
  1526
arbitrary sigma finite measures.  Introduces Lebesgue measure based on

  1527
the integral in Multivariate Analysis.  INCOMPATIBILITY.

* The domain package now runs in definitional mode by default: The
wenzelm@41819
  1552
former command 'new_domain' is now called 'domain'.  To use the domain
huffman@40869
  1553

wenzelm@41819
  1556
* The new class "domain" is now the default sort.  Class "predomain"
wenzelm@41819
  1557
is an unpointed version of "domain". Theories can be updated by
wenzelm@41819

huffman@40869
  1563
wenzelm@41819
  1564
* The old type class "rep" has been superseded by class "domain".
huffman@40869
  1565
Accordingly, users of the definitional package must remove any
wenzelm@41819
  1566
"default_sort rep" declarations.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
huffman@40869
  1567
huffman@41649
  1568
* The domain package (definitional mode) now supports unpointed
huffman@41649
  1569
predomain argument types, as long as they are marked 'lazy'. (Strict
wenzelm@41819
  1570
arguments must be in class "domain".) For example, the following
huffman@41649
  1571
domain definition now works:
huffman@41649
  1572
huffman@41649
  1573
  domain natlist = nil | cons (lazy "nat discr") (lazy "natlist")
huffman@41649
  1574
huffman@41649
  1575
* Theory HOLCF/Library/HOL_Cpo provides cpo and predomain class

  1576
instances for types from main HOL: bool, nat, int, char, 'a + 'b,
wenzelm@41819
  1577
'a option, and 'a list.  Additionally, it configures fixrec and the
wenzelm@41819
  1578
domain package to work with these types.  For example:
huffman@41649
  1579
huffman@41649
  1580
  fixrec isInl :: "('a + 'b) u -> tr"
huffman@41649

  domain V = VFun (lazy "V -> V") | VCon (lazy "nat") (lazy "V list")
huffman@41649
  1584
wenzelm@41819
  1585
* The "(permissive)" option of fixrec has been replaced with a
wenzelm@41819
  1586
per-equation "(unchecked)" option. See
wenzelm@41819

wenzelm@41819
  1588
wenzelm@41819
  1589
* The "bifinite" class no longer fixes a constant "approx"; the class
wenzelm@41819
  1590

wenzelm@41819
  1591
wenzelm@41819
  1592
* Former type "alg_defl" has been renamed to "defl".  HOLCF no longer
huffman@41535
  1593

  1791
discontinued -- use plain := instead.  This should be *rare* anyway,

wenzelm@39516
  1797
avoid working directly with raw Interrupt.  User code must not absorb
wenzelm@39516
  1798
interrupts -- intermediate handling (for cleanup etc.) needs to be
wenzelm@39516
  1799
followed by re-raising of the original exception.  Another common
wenzelm@39516

wenzelm@35546
  1810
* Authentic syntax for *all* logical entities (type classes, type
wenzelm@35546
  1811
constructors, term constants): provides simple and robust
wenzelm@35546
  1812
correspondence between formal entities and concrete syntax.  Within
wenzelm@35546
  1813
the parse tree / AST representations, "constants" are decorated by
wenzelm@35546
  1814
their category (class, type, const) and spelled out explicitly with
wenzelm@35546
  1815
their full internal name.
wenzelm@35546
  1816
wenzelm@35546
  1817
Substantial INCOMPATIBILITY concerning low-level syntax declarations
wenzelm@35546
  1818
and translations (translation rules and translation functions in ML).
wenzelm@35546
  1819
Some hints on upgrading:
wenzelm@35260
  1820
wenzelm@35260
  1821
  - Many existing uses of 'syntax' and 'translations' can be replaced
wenzelm@35546
  1822
    by more modern 'type_notation', 'notation' and 'abbreviation',
wenzelm@35546
  1823
    which are independent of this issue.
wenzelm@35260
  1824
wenzelm@35260
  1825
  - 'translations' require markup within the AST; the term syntax
wenzelm@35260
  1826
    provides the following special forms:
wenzelm@35260
  1827
wenzelm@35260
  1828
      CONST c   -- produces syntax version of constant c from context
wenzelm@35261
  1829
      XCONST c  -- literally c, checked as constant from context
wenzelm@35261
  1830
      c         -- literally c, if declared by 'syntax'
wenzelm@35261
  1831
wenzelm@35261
  1832
    Plain identifiers are treated as AST variables -- occasionally the
wenzelm@35261
  1833
    system indicates accidental variables via the error "rhs contains
wenzelm@35261
  1834
    extra variables".
wenzelm@35260
  1835
wenzelm@35546
  1836
    Type classes and type constructors are marked according to their
wenzelm@35546
  1837
    concrete syntax.  Some old translations rules need to be written
wenzelm@35546
  1838
    for the "type" category, using type constructor application
wenzelm@35546
  1839
    instead of pseudo-term application of the default category
wenzelm@35546
  1840
    "logic".
wenzelm@35546
  1841
wenzelm@35260
  1842
  - 'parse_translation' etc. in ML may use the following
wenzelm@35260
  1843
    antiquotations:
wenzelm@35260
  1844
wenzelm@35546
  1845
      @{class_syntax c}   -- type class c within parse tree / AST
wenzelm@35546
  1846
      @{term_syntax c}    -- type constructor c within parse tree / AST
wenzelm@35260
  1847
      @{const_syntax c}   -- ML version of "CONST c" above
wenzelm@35260
  1848
      @{syntax_const c}   -- literally c (checked wrt. 'syntax' declarations)
wenzelm@35260
  1849
wenzelm@35546
  1850
  - Literal types within 'typed_print_translations', i.e. those *not*
wenzelm@35546
  1851
    represented as pseudo-terms are represented verbatim.  Use @{class
wenzelm@35546
  1852
    c} or @{type_name c} here instead of the above syntax
wenzelm@35546
  1853
    antiquotations.
wenzelm@35546
  1854
wenzelm@35260
  1855
Note that old non-authentic syntax was based on unqualified base
wenzelm@35546
  1856
names, so all of the above "constant" names would coincide.  Recall
wenzelm@35546
  1857
that 'print_syntax' and ML_command "set Syntax.trace_ast" help to
wenzelm@35546
  1858
diagnose syntax problems.
wenzelm@35260
  1859
wenzelm@35352

* Type constructors admit general mixfix syntax, not just infix.
wenzelm@35352
  1861
wenzelm@36524
  1862
* Concrete syntax may be attached to local entities without a proof
wenzelm@36524
  1863
body, too.  This works via regular mixfix annotations for 'fix',
wenzelm@36524
  1864
'def', 'obtain' etc. or via the explicit 'write' command, which is
wenzelm@36524
  1865
similar to the 'notation' command in theory specifications.
wenzelm@36524
  1866
wenzelm@35129
  1867
* Discontinued unnamed infix syntax (legacy feature for many years) --
wenzelm@35130
  1868
need to specify constant name and syntax separately.  Internal ML
wenzelm@35130
  1869
datatype constructors have been renamed from InfixName to Infix etc.
wenzelm@35130
  1870
Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@35129
  1871
wenzelm@37351
  1872
* Schematic theorem statements need to be explicitly markup as such,
wenzelm@37351
  1873
via commands 'schematic_lemma', 'schematic_theorem',
wenzelm@37351
  1874
'schematic_corollary'.  Thus the relevance of the proof is made
wenzelm@37351
  1875
syntactically clear, which impacts performance in a parallel or
wenzelm@37351
  1876
asynchronous interactive environment.  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@37351
  1877
wenzelm@37351
  1878
* Use of cumulative prems via "!" in some proof methods has been
wenzelm@37351
  1879
discontinued (old legacy feature).
wenzelm@37351
  1880
wenzelm@37351
  1881
* References 'trace_simp' and 'debug_simp' have been replaced by
wenzelm@37351
  1882
configuration options stored in the context. Enabling tracing (the
wenzelm@37351
  1883
case of debugging is similar) in proofs works via
wenzelm@37351
  1884
wenzelm@37351
  1885
  using [[trace_simp = true]]
wenzelm@37351
  1886
wenzelm@37351
  1887
Tracing is then active for all invocations of the simplifier in
wenzelm@37351
  1888
subsequent goal refinement steps. Tracing may also still be enabled or
wenzelm@41028
  1889
disabled via the ProofGeneral settings menu.
wenzelm@37351
  1890
wenzelm@37351
  1891
* Separate commands 'hide_class', 'hide_type', 'hide_const',
wenzelm@37351
  1892
'hide_fact' replace the former 'hide' KIND command.  Minor
wenzelm@37351
  1893
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@37351
  1894
wenzelm@37351
  1895
* Improved parallelism of proof term normalization: usedir -p2 -q0 is
wenzelm@37351
  1896
more efficient than combinations with -q1 or -q2.

wenzelm@37351

* Proofterms record type-class reasoning explicitly, using the
wenzelm@37351
  1902
"unconstrain" operation internally.  This eliminates all sort
wenzelm@37351
  1903
constraints from a theorem and proof, introducing explicit
wenzelm@37351
  1904
OFCLASS-premises.  On the proof term level, this operation is
wenzelm@37351
  1905
automatically applied at theorem boundaries, such that closed proofs
wenzelm@37351
  1906
are always free of sort constraints.  INCOMPATIBILITY for tools that
wenzelm@37351
  1907
inspect proof terms.
wenzelm@37351
  1908
wenzelm@37351

* Local theory specifications may depend on extra type variables that
wenzelm@37351
  1910
are not present in the result type -- arguments TYPE('a) :: 'a itself
wenzelm@37351
  1911
are added internally.  For example:
wenzelm@37351
  1912
wenzelm@37351
  1913
  definition unitary :: bool where "unitary = (ALL (x::'a) y. x = y)"
wenzelm@37351
  1914
wenzelm@37351
  1915
* Predicates of locales introduced by classes carry a mandatory
wenzelm@37351
  1916
"class" prefix.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@37351
  1917
wenzelm@37351

* Vacuous class specifications observe default sort.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@37351

'class' instead.
wenzelm@37351

wenzelm@37351

wenzelm@37351
  1932
wenzelm@37351
  1933
* Methods "unfold_locales" and "intro_locales" ignore non-locale
wenzelm@37351
  1934
subgoals.  This is more appropriate for interpretations with 'where'.
wenzelm@37351
  1935
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@37351
  1936
wenzelm@36366
  1937
* Command 'example_proof' opens an empty proof body.  This allows to
wenzelm@36366
  1938
experiment with Isar, without producing any persistent result.
wenzelm@36366
  1939
wenzelm@35418
  1940
* Commands 'type_notation' and 'no_type_notation' declare type syntax
wenzelm@35418

within a local theory context, with explicit checking of the
wenzelm@35418
  1942
constructors involved (in contrast to the raw 'syntax' versions).
wenzelm@35418
  1943
wenzelm@36178
  1944
* Commands 'types' and 'typedecl' now work within a local theory
wenzelm@36178

context -- without introducing dependencies on parameters or
wenzelm@36178
  1946
assumptions, which is not possible in Isabelle/Pure.
wenzelm@35681
  1947
wenzelm@36857

wenzelm@37351
  1955
introducing dependencies on parameters or assumptions, which is not
wenzelm@37351
  1956
possible in Isabelle/Pure/HOL.  Note that the logical environment may
wenzelm@37351
  1957
contain multiple interpretations of local typedefs (with different
wenzelm@37351
  1958
non-emptiness proofs), even in a global theory context.
wenzelm@37351
  1959
wenzelm@37351
  1960
* New package for quotient types.  Commands 'quotient_type' and
wenzelm@37351
  1961
'quotient_definition' may be used for defining types and constants by
wenzelm@37351
  1962
quotient constructions.  An example is the type of integers created by
wenzelm@37351
  1963
quotienting pairs of natural numbers:
wenzelm@37481
  1964
wenzelm@37351

wenzelm@37351
  1975
wenzelm@37351
  1976
The method "lifting" can be used to lift of theorems from the
wenzelm@37351
  1977
underlying "raw" type to the quotient type.  The example
wenzelm@37351
  1978
src/HOL/Quotient_Examples/FSet.thy includes such a quotient
wenzelm@37351
  1979
construction and provides a reasoning infrastructure for finite sets.
wenzelm@37351
  1980
wenzelm@37351
  1981
* Renamed Library/Quotient.thy to Library/Quotient_Type.thy to avoid

wenzelm@37351
  1983

  - classes division_ring_inverse_zero, field_inverse_zero,
wenzelm@36857

wenzelm@36857
  2139
  - dropped theorem group ring_simps, use field_simps instead;
wenzelm@36857
  2140
  - proper theorem collection field_simps subsumes former theorem
wenzelm@36857
  2141
    groups field_eq_simps and field_simps;
wenzelm@36857
  2142
  - dropped lemma eq_minus_self_iff which is a duplicate for

  2168
multiset order:
wenzelm@37351
  2169
wenzelm@36857
  2170
  - pointwise ordering is instance of class order with standard syntax
wenzelm@36857
  2171
    <= and <;
wenzelm@36857
  2172
  - multiset ordering has syntax <=# and <#; partial order properties
wenzelm@36857
  2173
    are provided by means of interpretation with prefix
wenzelm@36857
  2174
    multiset_order;
wenzelm@36857
  2175
  - less duplication, less historical organization of sections,
wenzelm@36857
  2176
    conversion from associations lists to multisets, rudimentary code
wenzelm@36857
  2177
    generation;

    INCOMPATIBILITY.
blanchet@36921
  2237
  - Added user's manual ("isabelle doc sledgehammer").
blanchet@36921
  2238
  - Added option syntax and "sledgehammer_params" to customize
blanchet@36921
  2239
    Sledgehammer's behavior.  See the manual for details.
blanchet@36921
  2240
  - Modified the Isar proof reconstruction code so that it produces
blanchet@36921
  2241
    direct proofs rather than proofs by contradiction.  (This feature
blanchet@36921
  2242
    is still experimental.)
blanchet@36921
  2243
  - Made Isar proof reconstruction work for SPASS, remote ATPs, and in
blanchet@36921
  2244
    full-typed mode.
blanchet@36921
  2245
  - Added support for TPTP syntax for SPASS via the "spass_tptp" ATP.

* Nitpick:
blanchet@36920
  2248
  - Added and implemented "binary_ints" and "bits" options.
blanchet@36920
  2249
  - Added "std" option and implemented support for nonstandard models.
blanchet@36920
  2250
  - Added and implemented "finitize" option to improve the precision
blanchet@36920
  2251
    of infinite datatypes based on a monotonicity analysis.
blanchet@36920
  2252
  - Added support for quotient types.
blanchet@36920
  2253
  - Added support for "specification" and "ax_specification"
blanchet@36920
  2254
    constructs.
blanchet@36920
  2255
  - Added support for local definitions (for "function" and
blanchet@36920
  2256
    "termination" proofs).
blanchet@36920
  2257
  - Added support for term postprocessors.
blanchet@36920
  2258
  - Optimized "Multiset.multiset" and "FinFun.finfun".
blanchet@36920
  2259
  - Improved efficiency of "destroy_constrs" optimization.
blanchet@36920
  2260
  - Fixed soundness bugs related to "destroy_constrs" optimization and
blanchet@36920
  2261
    record getters.
blanchet@37271
  2262
  - Fixed soundness bug related to higher-order constructors.
blanchet@37271
  2263
  - Fixed soundness bug when "full_descrs" is enabled.
blanchet@36920
  2264
  - Improved precision of set constructs.
blanchet@37259
  2265
  - Added "atoms" option.
blanchet@36920
  2266
  - Added cache to speed up repeated Kodkod invocations on the same
blanchet@36920
  2267
    problems.
blanchet@36920
  2268
  - Renamed "MiniSatJNI", "zChaffJNI", "BerkMinAlloy", and
blanchet@36920
  2269
    "SAT4JLight" to "MiniSat_JNI", "zChaff_JNI", "BerkMin_Alloy", and
blanchet@36920

    "SAT4J_Light".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
blanchet@36920
  2271
  - Removed "skolemize", "uncurry", "sym_break", "flatten_prop",
blanchet@36920
  2272
    "sharing_depth", and "show_skolems" options.  INCOMPATIBILITY.

* Method "induct" now takes instantiations of the form t, where t is not
berghofe@37462
  2276
  a variable, as a shorthand for "x == t", where x is a fresh variable.
berghofe@37462
  2277
  If this is not intended, t has to be enclosed in parentheses.
berghofe@37462
  2278
  By default, the equalities generated by definitional instantiations
berghofe@37462
  2279
  are pre-simplified, which may cause parameters of inductive cases
berghofe@37462
  2280
  to disappear, or may even delete some of the inductive cases.
berghofe@37462
  2281
  Use "induct (no_simp)" instead of "induct" to restore the old
berghofe@37462
  2282
  behaviour. The (no_simp) option is also understood by the "cases"
berghofe@37462
  2283
  and "nominal_induct" methods, which now perform pre-simplification, too.

    @{const_syntax NAME}  -- syntax representation of any of the above
wenzelm@37351
  2358
wenzelm@37351
  2359
* Antiquotation @{syntax_const NAME} ensures that NAME refers to a raw
wenzelm@37351
  2360
syntax constant (cf. 'syntax' command).
wenzelm@37351
  2361
wenzelm@37351
  2362
* Antiquotation @{make_string} inlines a function to print arbitrary
wenzelm@37351
  2363
values similar to the ML toplevel.  The result is compiler dependent
wenzelm@37351
  2364
and may fall back on "?" in certain situations.
wenzelm@37351
  2365
wenzelm@37351
  2366
* Diagnostic commands 'ML_val' and 'ML_command' may refer to
wenzelm@37351
  2367
antiquotations @{Isar.state} and @{Isar.goal}.  This replaces impure
wenzelm@37351
  2368
Isar.state() and Isar.goal(), which belong to the old TTY loop and do
wenzelm@37351
  2369
not work with the asynchronous Isar document model.
wenzelm@37351
  2370
wenzelm@37351
  2371
* Configuration options now admit dynamic default values, depending on
wenzelm@37351
  2372
the context or even global references.
wenzelm@37351
  2373
wenzelm@37351
  2374
* SHA1.digest digests strings according to SHA-1 (see RFC 3174).  It
wenzelm@37351
  2375
uses an efficient external library if available (for Poly/ML).
wenzelm@37351
  2376
wenzelm@37144
  2377
* Renamed some important ML structures, while keeping the old names
wenzelm@37144
  2378
for some time as aliases within the structure Legacy:
wenzelm@37144
  2379
wenzelm@37144
  2380
  OuterKeyword  ~>  Keyword
wenzelm@37144
  2381
  OuterLex      ~>  Token

  2389
  TypeInfer     ~>  Type_Infer
wenzelm@37144
  2390
wenzelm@37144
  2391
Note that "open Legacy" simplifies porting of sources, but forgetting
wenzelm@37144
  2392
to remove it again will complicate porting again in the future.
wenzelm@37144
  2393
wenzelm@37144
  2394
* Most operations that refer to a global context are named
wenzelm@37144
  2395
accordingly, e.g. Simplifier.global_context or
wenzelm@37144
  2396
ProofContext.init_global.  There are some situations where a global
wenzelm@37144
  2397
context actually works, but under normal circumstances one needs to
wenzelm@37144
  2398
pass the proper local context through the code!
wenzelm@37144
  2399
wenzelm@37144
  2400
* Discontinued old TheoryDataFun with its copy/init operation -- data
wenzelm@37144
  2401
needs to be pure.  Functor Theory_Data_PP retains the traditional
wenzelm@37144
  2402
Pretty.pp argument to merge, which is absent in the standard
wenzelm@37144
  2403
Theory_Data version.
wenzelm@37144
  2404
wenzelm@36443
  2405
* Sorts.certify_sort and derived "cert" operations for types and terms
wenzelm@36443
  2406
no longer minimize sorts.  Thus certification at the boundary of the
wenzelm@36443
  2407
inference kernel becomes invariant under addition of class relations,
wenzelm@36443
  2408
which is an important monotonicity principle.  Sorts are now minimized
wenzelm@36443
  2409
in the syntax layer only, at the boundary between the end-user and the
wenzelm@36443
  2410
system.  Subtle INCOMPATIBILITY, may have to use Sign.minimize_sort
wenzelm@36443
  2411
explicitly in rare situations.
wenzelm@36443
  2412
wenzelm@35021
  2413
* Renamed old-style Drule.standard to Drule.export_without_context, to
wenzelm@35021
  2414
emphasize that this is in no way a standard operation.
wenzelm@35021
  2415
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@35021
  2416
wenzelm@34076
  2417
* Subgoal.FOCUS (and variants): resulting goal state is normalized as
wenzelm@34076
  2418
usual for resolution.  Rare INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@34076
  2419
wenzelm@35845
  2420
* Renamed varify/unvarify operations to varify_global/unvarify_global
wenzelm@35845
  2421
to emphasize that these only work in a global situation (which is
wenzelm@35845
  2422
quite rare).
wenzelm@35845
  2423
wenzelm@37144
  2424
* Curried take and drop in library.ML; negative length is interpreted
wenzelm@37144
  2425
as infinity (as in chop).  Subtle INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@36971
  2426
wenzelm@37351
  2427
* Proof terms: type substitutions on proof constants now use canonical
wenzelm@37351
  2428
order of type variables.  INCOMPATIBILITY for tools working with proof
wenzelm@37351
  2429
terms.
wenzelm@37351
  2430
wenzelm@37351
  2431
* Raw axioms/defs may no longer carry sort constraints, and raw defs
wenzelm@37351
  2432
may no longer carry premises.  User-level specifications are
wenzelm@37351
  2433
transformed accordingly by Thm.add_axiom/add_def.

wenzelm@34238
  2437
wenzelm@34238
  2438
* Discontinued special HOL_USEDIR_OPTIONS for the main HOL image;
wenzelm@34238
  2439
ISABELLE_USEDIR_OPTIONS applies uniformly to all sessions.  Note that
wenzelm@34238
  2440
proof terms are enabled unconditionally in the new HOL-Proofs image.
wenzelm@34238
  2441
wenzelm@34255
  2442
* Discontinued old ISABELLE and ISATOOL environment settings (legacy
wenzelm@34255
  2443
feature since Isabelle2009).  Use ISABELLE_PROCESS and ISABELLE_TOOL,
wenzelm@34255
  2444
respectively.
wenzelm@34255
  2445
wenzelm@36201
  2446
* Old lib/scripts/polyml-platform is superseded by the
wenzelm@36201
  2447
ISABELLE_PLATFORM setting variable, which defaults to the 32 bit
wenzelm@36201
  2448
variant, even on a 64 bit machine.  The following example setting
wenzelm@36201
  2449
prefers 64 bit if available:
wenzelm@36201
  2450
wenzelm@36201
  2451
  ML_PLATFORM="${ISABELLE_PLATFORM64:-$ISABELLE_PLATFORM}"
wenzelm@36201
  2452
wenzelm@37218
  2453
* The preliminary Isabelle/jEdit application demonstrates the emerging
wenzelm@37218
  2454
Isabelle/Scala layer for advanced prover interaction and integration.
wenzelm@37218
  2455
See src/Tools/jEdit or "isabelle jedit" provided by the properly built

* "IsabelleText" is a Unicode font derived from Bitstream Vera Mono
wenzelm@37473
  2459
and Bluesky TeX fonts.  It provides the usual Isabelle symbols,
wenzelm@37473
  2460
similar to the default assignment of the document preparation system
wenzelm@37473
  2461
(cf. isabellesym.sty).  The Isabelle/Scala class Isabelle_System
wenzelm@37473
  2462
provides some operations for direct access to the font without asking
wenzelm@37473
  2463
the user for manual installation.

  2480
local definitions to terms of the target domain of an interpretation.
ballarin@32841
  2481
wenzelm@33842
  2482

* New generalized style concept for printing terms: @{foo (style) ...}
wenzelm@33842
  2496
instead of @{foo_style style ...}  (old form is still retained for
wenzelm@33842

*** HOL ***
haftmann@30930
  2502
wenzelm@33842
  2503
* New proof method "smt" for a combination of first-order logic with
wenzelm@33842
  2504
equality, linear and nonlinear (natural/integer/real) arithmetic, and
wenzelm@33842
  2505
fixed-size bitvectors; there is also basic support for higher-order
wenzelm@33842
  2506
features (esp. lambda abstractions).  It is an incomplete decision
wenzelm@33842
  2507
procedure based on external SMT solvers using the oracle mechanism;
wenzelm@33842
  2508
for the SMT solver Z3, this method is proof-producing.  Certificates
wenzelm@33842
  2509
are provided to avoid calling the external solvers solely for
wenzelm@33842
  2510
re-checking proofs.  Due to a remote SMT service there is no need for
wenzelm@33842
  2511
installing SMT solvers locally.  See src/HOL/SMT.
wenzelm@33842
  2512
wenzelm@33842
  2513
* New commands to load and prove verification conditions generated by
wenzelm@33842
  2514
the Boogie program verifier or derived systems (e.g. the Verifying C
wenzelm@33842
  2515
Compiler (VCC) or Spec#).  See src/HOL/Boogie.
wenzelm@33842
  2516
wenzelm@33842
  2517
* New counterexample generator tool 'nitpick' based on the Kodkod
wenzelm@33842
  2518
relational model finder.  See src/HOL/Tools/Nitpick and
wenzelm@33842
  2519
src/HOL/Nitpick_Examples.
wenzelm@33842
  2520
haftmann@33860
  2521
* New commands 'code_pred' and 'values' to invoke the predicate
haftmann@33860
  2522
compiler and to enumerate values of inductive predicates.
haftmann@33860
  2523
haftmann@33860
  2524
* A tabled implementation of the reflexive transitive closure.
haftmann@33860
  2525
haftmann@33860
  2526
* New implementation of quickcheck uses generic code generator;
haftmann@33860
  2527
default generators are provided for all suitable HOL types, records
haftmann@33860
  2528
and datatypes.  Old quickcheck can be re-activated importing theory

  2529
Library/SML_Quickcheck.
haftmann@33860
  2530
wenzelm@33843
  2531
* New testing tool Mirabelle for automated proof tools.  Applies
wenzelm@32427
  2532
several tools and tactics like sledgehammer, metis, or quickcheck, to
wenzelm@33842
  2533
every proof step in a theory.  To be used in batch mode via the
wenzelm@32427
  2534
"mirabelle" utility.
wenzelm@32427
  2535
wenzelm@32427
  2536
* New proof method "sos" (sum of squares) for nonlinear real
wenzelm@33842
  2537
arithmetic (originally due to John Harison). It requires theory
wenzelm@32427
  2538
Library/Sum_Of_Squares.  It is not a complete decision procedure but
wenzelm@32427
  2539
works well in practice on quantifier-free real arithmetic with +, -,
wenzelm@32427
  2540
*, ^, =, <= and <, i.e. boolean combinations of equalities and
wenzelm@33842
  2541
inequalities between polynomials.  It makes use of external
wenzelm@33842
  2542
semidefinite programming solvers.  Method "sos" generates a
wenzelm@33842
  2543
certificate that can be pasted into the proof thus avoiding the need
wenzelm@33842
  2544
to call an external tool every time the proof is checked.  See
wenzelm@33842
  2545
src/HOL/Library/Sum_Of_Squares.
wenzelm@32427
  2546
wenzelm@33843

wenzelm@33843
  2548
procedure only.
wenzelm@33843
  2549
wenzelm@33843
  2550
* New command 'atp_minimal' reduces result produced by Sledgehammer.
wenzelm@33843
  2551
wenzelm@33843
  2552
* New Sledgehammer option "Full Types" in Proof General settings menu.
wenzelm@33843
  2553
Causes full type information to be output to the ATPs.  This slows
wenzelm@33843
  2554
ATPs down considerably but eliminates a source of unsound "proofs"
wenzelm@33843
  2555
that fail later.
wenzelm@33843
  2556
wenzelm@33843
  2557
* New method "metisFT": A version of metis that uses full type
wenzelm@33843
  2558
information in order to avoid failures of proof reconstruction.
wenzelm@33843
  2559
wenzelm@33843
  2560
* New evaluator "approximate" approximates an real valued term using
wenzelm@33843
  2561
the same method as the approximation method.
wenzelm@33843
  2562
wenzelm@33843
  2563
* Method "approximate" now supports arithmetic expressions as
wenzelm@33843
  2564
boundaries of intervals and implements interval splitting and Taylor
wenzelm@33843
  2565
series expansion.
wenzelm@33843
  2566
wenzelm@33843
  2567
* ML antiquotation @{code_datatype} inserts definition of a datatype
wenzelm@33843

generated by the code generator; e.g. see src/HOL/Predicate.thy.
wenzelm@33843
  2569
haftmann@33860

* Reorganization of number theory, INCOMPATIBILITY:
wenzelm@33873
  2580
  - new number theory development for nat and int, in theories Divides
wenzelm@33873
  2581

wenzelm@33873
  2582
  - some constants and facts now suffixed with _nat and _int
wenzelm@33873
  2583
    accordingly
wenzelm@33873
  2584
  - former session NumberTheory now named Old_Number_Theory, including
wenzelm@33873
  2585
    theories Legacy_GCD and Primes (prefer Number_Theory if possible)
wenzelm@33843
  2586
  - moved theory Pocklington from src/HOL/Library to

    src/HOL/Old_Number_Theory
wenzelm@33843
  2588
wenzelm@33873
  2589
* Theory GCD includes functions Gcd/GCD and Lcm/LCM for the gcd and
wenzelm@33873
  2590
lcm of finite and infinite sets. It is shown that they form a complete
wenzelm@33843
  2591
lattice.
wenzelm@33843
  2592
wenzelm@33843
  2593
* Class semiring_div requires superclass no_zero_divisors and proof of

  2594
div_mult_mult1; theorems div_mult_mult1, div_mult_mult2,
wenzelm@33843
  2595
div_mult_mult1_if, div_mult_mult1 and div_mult_mult2 have been
wenzelm@33843
  2596
generalized to class semiring_div, subsuming former theorems
wenzelm@33843
  2597
zdiv_zmult_zmult1, zdiv_zmult_zmult1_if, zdiv_zmult_zmult1 and
wenzelm@33843

wenzelm@33843
  2600
haftmann@32588
  2601
* Refinements to lattice classes and sets:
haftmann@32056
  2602
  - less default intro/elim rules in locale variant, more default
haftmann@32056
  2603
    intro/elim rules in class variant: more uniformity
wenzelm@33842
  2604
  - lemma ge_sup_conv renamed to le_sup_iff, in accordance with
wenzelm@33842
  2605
    le_inf_iff
wenzelm@33842
  2606
  - dropped lemma alias inf_ACI for inf_aci (same for sup_ACI and
wenzelm@33842
  2607
    sup_aci)
haftmann@32056
  2608
  - renamed ACI to inf_sup_aci
haftmann@32600
  2609
  - new class "boolean_algebra"
wenzelm@33842
  2610
  - class "complete_lattice" moved to separate theory

INCOMPATIBILITY.  Care is required when theorems Int_subset_iff or
wenzelm@33842
  2636
Un_subset_iff are explicitly deleted as default simp rules; then also
wenzelm@33842
  2637
their lattice counterparts le_inf_iff and le_sup_iff have to be
haftmann@32691
  2638
deleted to achieve the desired effect.
haftmann@32056
  2639
wenzelm@33842
  2640
* Rules inf_absorb1, inf_absorb2, sup_absorb1, sup_absorb2 are no simp
wenzelm@33842
  2641
rules by default any longer; the same applies to min_max.inf_absorb1
wenzelm@33842
  2642
etc.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@33842
  2643
wenzelm@33842
  2644
* Rules sup_Int_eq and sup_Un_eq are no longer declared as
wenzelm@33842
  2645
pred_set_conv by default.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@33842
  2646
wenzelm@33842
  2647
* Power operations on relations and functions are now one dedicated
haftmann@32706
  2648
constant "compow" with infix syntax "^^".  Power operation on
wenzelm@31550
  2649
multiplicative monoids retains syntax "^" and is now defined generic
wenzelm@31550
  2650
in class power.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@31550
  2651
wenzelm@33842
  2652
* Relation composition "R O S" now has a more standard argument order:
wenzelm@33842
  2653
"R O S = {(x, z). EX y. (x, y) : R & (y, z) : S}".  INCOMPATIBILITY,
wenzelm@33842
  2654
rewrite propositions with "S O R" --> "R O S". Proofs may occasionally
wenzelm@33842
  2655
break, since the O_assoc rule was not rewritten like this.  Fix using
wenzelm@33842
  2656
O_assoc[symmetric].  The same applies to the curried version "R OO S".
wenzelm@32427
  2657
nipkow@33057
  2658
* Function "Inv" is renamed to "inv_into" and function "inv" is now an
wenzelm@33842
  2659
abbreviation for "inv_into UNIV".  Lemmas are renamed accordingly.
nipkow@32988
  2660
INCOMPATIBILITY.
nipkow@32988

nipkow@31790
  2664
wenzelm@33842
  2665
* Changed "DERIV_intros" to a dynamic fact, which can be augmented by
wenzelm@33842
  2666
the attribute of the same name.  Each of the theorems in the list
wenzelm@33842
  2667
DERIV_intros assumes composition with an additional function and
wenzelm@33842
  2668
matches a variable to the derivative, which has to be solved by the
wenzelm@33842
  2669
Simplifier.  Hence (auto intro!: DERIV_intros) computes the derivative
wenzelm@33873
  2670
of most elementary terms.  Former Maclauren.DERIV_tac and
wenzelm@33873
  2671
Maclauren.deriv_tac should be replaced by (auto intro!: DERIV_intros).
wenzelm@33873
  2672
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@33860

haftmann@33860
  2674
* Code generator attributes follow the usual underscore convention:
haftmann@33860
  2675
    code_unfold     replaces    code unfold
haftmann@33860
  2676
    code_post       replaces    code post
haftmann@33860

  2678
  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@31911

  2686
INCOMPATIBILITY, use "undefined" directly.
wenzelm@33843
  2687
haftmann@33860

    Suc_eq_add_numeral_1 -> Suc_eq_plus1
haftmann@33860
  2690
    Suc_eq_add_numeral_1_left -> Suc_eq_plus1_left

haftmann@33860
  2698
haftmann@33860

  2705
* Theory Representable defines a class "rep" of domains that are
wenzelm@33842
  2706
representable (via an ep-pair) in the universal domain type "udom".
huffman@33825
  2707
Instances are provided for all type constructors defined in HOLCF.
huffman@33825
  2708
huffman@33825
  2709
* The 'new_domain' command is a purely definitional version of the
huffman@33825
  2710
domain package, for representable domains.  Syntax is identical to the
huffman@33825
  2711
old domain package.  The 'new_domain' package also supports indirect
huffman@33825
  2712
recursion using previously-defined type constructors.  See
wenzelm@33842
  2713
src/HOLCF/ex/New_Domain.thy for examples.
wenzelm@33842
  2714
wenzelm@33842
  2715
* Method "fixrec_simp" unfolds one step of a fixrec-defined constant
huffman@33825
  2716
on the left-hand side of an equation, and then performs
huffman@33825
  2717
simplification.  Rewriting is done using rules declared with the
wenzelm@33842
  2718
"fixrec_simp" attribute.  The "fixrec_simp" method is intended as a
wenzelm@33842
  2719
replacement for "fixpat"; see src/HOLCF/ex/Fixrec_ex.thy for examples.
huffman@33825
  2720
huffman@33825
  2721
* The pattern-match compiler in 'fixrec' can now handle constructors
huffman@33825
  2722
with HOL function types.  Pattern-match combinators for the Pair
huffman@33825
  2723
constructor are pre-configured.
huffman@33825
  2724
huffman@33825
  2725
* The 'fixrec' package now produces better fixed-point induction rules
huffman@33825
  2726
for mutually-recursive definitions:  Induction rules have conclusions
huffman@33825
  2727
of the form "P foo bar" instead of "P <foo, bar>".
huffman@33825
  2728
huffman@33825
  2729
* The constant "sq_le" (with infix syntax "<<" or "\<sqsubseteq>") has
huffman@33825
  2730
been renamed to "below".  The name "below" now replaces "less" in many
wenzelm@33842
  2731
theorem names.  (Legacy theorem names using "less" are still supported
wenzelm@33842
  2732
as well.)
huffman@33825
  2733
huffman@33825
  2734
* The 'fixrec' package now supports "bottom patterns".  Bottom
huffman@33825
  2735
patterns can be used to generate strictness rules, or to make
huffman@33825
  2736
functions more strict (much like the bang-patterns supported by the
wenzelm@33873
  2737
Glasgow Haskell Compiler).  See src/HOLCF/ex/Fixrec_ex.thy for
wenzelm@33873
  2738

wenzelm@33843
  2744
errors and run-time exceptions, including detailed source positions.
wenzelm@33843
  2745
wenzelm@33843
  2746
* Structure Name_Space (formerly NameSpace) now manages uniquely
wenzelm@33843
  2747
identified entries, with some additional information such as source
wenzelm@33843
  2748
position, logical grouping etc.
wenzelm@33843
  2749
wenzelm@33526
  2750
* Theory and context data is now introduced by the simplified and
wenzelm@33526
  2751
modernized functors Theory_Data, Proof_Data, Generic_Data.  Data needs
wenzelm@33526
  2752
to be pure, but the old TheoryDataFun for mutable data (with explicit
wenzelm@33526
  2753
copy operation) is still available for some time.
wenzelm@33526
  2754
wenzelm@32742
  2755
* Structure Synchronized (cf. src/Pure/Concurrent/synchronized.ML)
wenzelm@32742
  2756
provides a high-level programming interface to synchronized state
wenzelm@32742
  2757
variables with atomic update.  This works via pure function
wenzelm@32742
  2758
application within a critical section -- its runtime should be as
wenzelm@32742
  2759
short as possible; beware of deadlocks if critical code is nested,
wenzelm@32742
  2760
either directly or indirectly via other synchronized variables!
wenzelm@32742
  2761
wenzelm@32742
  2762
* Structure Unsynchronized (cf. src/Pure/ML-Systems/unsynchronized.ML)
wenzelm@32742
  2763
wraps raw ML references, explicitly indicating their non-thread-safe
wenzelm@32742
  2764
behaviour.  The Isar toplevel keeps this structure open, to
wenzelm@32742
  2765
accommodate Proof General as well as quick and dirty interactive
wenzelm@32742
  2766
experiments with references.
wenzelm@32742
  2767
wenzelm@32365
  2768
* PARALLEL_CHOICE and PARALLEL_GOALS provide basic support for
wenzelm@32365
  2769
parallel tactical reasoning.
wenzelm@32365
  2770
wenzelm@32427
  2771
* Tacticals Subgoal.FOCUS, Subgoal.FOCUS_PREMS, Subgoal.FOCUS_PARAMS
wenzelm@32427
  2772
are similar to SUBPROOF, but are slightly more flexible: only the
wenzelm@32427
  2773
specified parts of the subgoal are imported into the context, and the
wenzelm@32427
  2774
body tactic may introduce new subgoals and schematic variables.
wenzelm@32427
  2775
wenzelm@32427
  2776
* Old tactical METAHYPS, which does not observe the proof context, has
wenzelm@32427
  2777
been renamed to Old_Goals.METAHYPS and awaits deletion.  Use SUBPROOF
wenzelm@32427
  2778
or Subgoal.FOCUS etc.
wenzelm@32216
  2779
wenzelm@31972
  2780
* Renamed functor TableFun to Table, and GraphFun to Graph.  (Since
wenzelm@31972
  2781
functors have their own ML name space there is no point to mark them
wenzelm@31972
  2782
separately.)  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@31972
  2783
wenzelm@31912
  2784
* Renamed NamedThmsFun to Named_Thms.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@31912
  2785
wenzelm@33842

  2787
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@33842
  2788
wenzelm@33843
  2789
* Operations of structure Skip_Proof no longer require quick_and_dirty
wenzelm@33843
  2790
mode, which avoids critical setmp.
wenzelm@33843
  2791
wenzelm@31306
  2792
* Eliminated old Attrib.add_attributes, Method.add_methods and related
wenzelm@33842
  2793
combinators for "args".  INCOMPATIBILITY, need to use simplified
wenzelm@31306
  2794
Attrib/Method.setup introduced in Isabelle2009.
wenzelm@31304
  2795
wenzelm@32151
  2796
* Proper context for simpset_of, claset_of, clasimpset_of.  May fall
wenzelm@32151
  2797
back on global_simpset_of, global_claset_of, global_clasimpset_of as
wenzelm@32151
  2798
last resort.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@32151
  2799
wenzelm@32112
  2800
* Display.pretty_thm now requires a proper context (cf. former
wenzelm@32112
  2801
ProofContext.pretty_thm).  May fall back on Display.pretty_thm_global
wenzelm@32112
  2802
or even Display.pretty_thm_without_context as last resort.

  2803
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@32112
  2804
wenzelm@32446

wenzelm@32326
  2821
wenzelm@31317

wenzelm@28504
  2838

wenzelm@28504
  2839
case-insensitive file-systems (such as Mac OS).
wenzelm@28504
  2840
wenzelm@28504
  2841
  - The main Isabelle tool wrapper is now called "isabelle" instead of
wenzelm@28504
  2842
    "isatool."
wenzelm@28504
  2843
wenzelm@28504
  2844
  - The former "isabelle" alias for "isabelle-process" has been
wenzelm@28504
  2845
    removed (should rarely occur to regular users).
wenzelm@28504
  2846
wenzelm@28915
  2847
  - The former "isabelle-interface" and its alias "Isabelle" have been
wenzelm@28915
  2848
    removed (interfaces are now regular Isabelle tools).
wenzelm@28504
  2849
wenzelm@28504
  2850
Within scripts and make files, the Isabelle environment variables
wenzelm@28504
  2851
ISABELLE_TOOL and ISABELLE_PROCESS replace old ISATOOL and ISABELLE,
wenzelm@28504
  2852
respectively.  (The latter are still available as legacy feature.)
wenzelm@28504
  2853
wenzelm@28915
  2854
The old isabelle-interface wrapper could react in confusing ways if
wenzelm@28915
  2855
the interface was uninstalled or changed otherwise.  Individual
wenzelm@28915
  2856
interface tool configuration is now more explicit, see also the
wenzelm@28915
  2857
Isabelle system manual.  In particular, Proof General is now available
wenzelm@28915
  2858
via "isabelle emacs".
wenzelm@28504
  2859
wenzelm@28504
  2860
INCOMPATIBILITY, need to adapt derivative scripts.  Users may need to
wenzelm@28504
  2861
purge installed copies of Isabelle executables and re-run "isabelle
wenzelm@28504
  2862
install -p ...", or use symlinks.
wenzelm@28504
  2863
wenzelm@28914
  2864
* The default for ISABELLE_HOME_USER is now ~/.isabelle instead of the
wenzelm@30845
  2865
old ~/isabelle, which was slightly non-standard and apt to cause
wenzelm@30845
  2866
surprises on case-insensitive file-systems (such as Mac OS).
wenzelm@28914
  2867
wenzelm@28914
  2868
INCOMPATIBILITY, need to move existing ~/isabelle/etc,
wenzelm@28914
  2869
~/isabelle/heaps, ~/isabelle/browser_info to the new place.  Special
wenzelm@28914
  2870
care is required when using older releases of Isabelle.  Note that
wenzelm@28914
  2871
ISABELLE_HOME_USER can be changed in Isabelle/etc/settings of any
wenzelm@30845
  2872
Isabelle distribution, in order to use the new ~/.isabelle uniformly.
wenzelm@28914
  2873
wenzelm@29161
  2874
* Proofs of fully specified statements are run in parallel on
wenzelm@30845
  2875
multi-core systems.  A speedup factor of 2.5 to 3.2 can be expected on
wenzelm@30845
  2876
a regular 4-core machine, if the initial heap space is made reasonably
wenzelm@30845
  2877
large (cf. Poly/ML option -H).  (Requires Poly/ML 5.2.1 or later.)
wenzelm@30845

wenzelm@30845
  2879
* The main reference manuals ("isar-ref", "implementation", and

wenzelm@30845
  2891
must be declared in a for clause.  To aid compatibility with previous
wenzelm@30845
  2892
parameter inheritance, in locale declarations, parameters that are not
wenzelm@30845
  2893
'touched' (instantiation position "_" or omitted) are implicitly added
wenzelm@30845
  2894
with their syntax at the beginning of the for clause.
wenzelm@30845
  2895
wenzelm@30845
  2896
- Syntax from abbreviations and definitions in locales is available in
wenzelm@30845
  2897
locale expressions and context elements.  The latter is particularly
wenzelm@30845
  2898
useful in locale declarations.
wenzelm@30845
  2899
wenzelm@30845
  2900
- More flexible mechanisms to qualify names generated by locale
wenzelm@30845
  2901
expressions.  Qualifiers (prefixes) may be specified in locale
wenzelm@30845
  2902
expressions, and can be marked as mandatory (syntax: "name!:") or
wenzelm@30845
  2903
optional (syntax "name?:").  The default depends for plain "name:"
wenzelm@30845
  2904
depends on the situation where a locale expression is used: in
wenzelm@30845
  2905
commands 'locale' and 'sublocale' prefixes are optional, in
wenzelm@30845
  2906
'interpretation' and 'interpret' prefixes are mandatory.  The old
wenzelm@30845
  2907
implicit qualifiers derived from the parameter names of a locale are
wenzelm@30845
  2908
no longer generated.
wenzelm@30845
  2909
wenzelm@30845
  2910
- Command "sublocale l < e" replaces "interpretation l < e".  The
wenzelm@30845
  2911
instantiation clause in "interpretation" and "interpret" (square
wenzelm@30845
  2912
brackets) is no longer available.  Use locale expressions.
wenzelm@30845
  2913
wenzelm@30845
  2914
- When converting proof scripts, mandatory qualifiers in
wenzelm@30845
  2915
'interpretation' and 'interpret' should be retained by default, even
wenzelm@30845
  2916
if this is an INCOMPATIBILITY compared to former behavior.  In the
wenzelm@30845
  2917
worst case, use the "name?:" form for non-mandatory ones.  Qualifiers
wenzelm@30845
  2918
in locale expressions range over a single locale instance only.
wenzelm@30845
  2919
wenzelm@30845
  2920
- Dropped locale element "includes".  This is a major INCOMPATIBILITY.
ballarin@28710
  2921
In existing theorem specifications replace the includes element by the
wenzelm@30106
  2922
respective context elements of the included locale, omitting those
wenzelm@30106
  2923
that are already present in the theorem specification.  Multiple
wenzelm@30106
  2924
assume elements of a locale should be replaced by a single one
wenzelm@30106
  2925
involving the locale predicate.  In the proof body, declarations (most
wenzelm@30106
  2926
notably theorems) may be regained by interpreting the respective
wenzelm@30106
  2927
locales in the proof context as required (command "interpret").
wenzelm@30106
  2928
ballarin@28710
  2929
If using "includes" in replacement of a target solely because the
ballarin@28710
  2930
parameter types in the theorem are not as general as in the target,
wenzelm@30106
  2931
consider declaring a new locale with additional type constraints on
wenzelm@30106
  2932
the parameters (context element "constrains").
ballarin@28710
  2933
wenzelm@30845
  2934
- Discontinued "locale (open)".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  2935
wenzelm@30845
  2936
- Locale interpretation commands no longer attempt to simplify goal.
ballarin@27761
  2937
INCOMPATIBILITY: in rare situations the generated goal differs.  Use
ballarin@27761
  2938
methods intro_locales and unfold_locales to clarify.
haftmann@27681
  2939
wenzelm@30845
  2940
- Locale interpretation commands no longer accept interpretation
wenzelm@30845
  2941
attributes.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  2942
wenzelm@30845
  2943
* Class declaration: so-called "base sort" must not be given in import
wenzelm@30845
  2944
list any longer, but is inferred from the specification.  Particularly
wenzelm@30845
  2945
in HOL, write
wenzelm@30845
  2946
wenzelm@30845
  2947
    class foo = ...
wenzelm@30845
  2948
wenzelm@30845
  2949
instead of
wenzelm@30845
  2950
wenzelm@30845
  2951
    class foo = type + ...
wenzelm@30845
  2952
wenzelm@30845
  2953
* Class target: global versions of theorems stemming do not carry a
wenzelm@30845
  2954
parameter prefix any longer.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  2955
wenzelm@30845
  2956
* Class 'instance' command no longer accepts attached definitions.
wenzelm@30845
  2957
INCOMPATIBILITY, use proper 'instantiation' target instead.
wenzelm@30845
  2958
wenzelm@30845
  2959
* Recovered hiding of consts, which was accidentally broken in
wenzelm@30845
  2960
Isabelle2007.  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY, ``hide const c'' really
wenzelm@30845
  2961
makes c inaccessible; consider using ``hide (open) const c'' instead.
wenzelm@30845
  2962
wenzelm@30845
  2963
* Slightly more coherent Pure syntax, with updated documentation in
wenzelm@30845
  2964
isar-ref manual.  Removed locales meta_term_syntax and
wenzelm@30845
  2965
meta_conjunction_syntax: TERM and &&& (formerly &&) are now permanent,
wenzelm@30845
  2966
INCOMPATIBILITY in rare situations.  Note that &&& should not be used
wenzelm@30845
  2967
directly in regular applications.
wenzelm@30845
  2968
wenzelm@30845
  2969
* There is a new syntactic category "float_const" for signed decimal
wenzelm@30845
  2970
fractions (e.g. 123.45 or -123.45).
wenzelm@30845
  2971
wenzelm@30845
  2972
* Removed exotic 'token_translation' command.  INCOMPATIBILITY, use ML
wenzelm@30845
  2973
interface with 'setup' command instead.
wenzelm@30845
  2974
wenzelm@30845
  2975
* Command 'local_setup' is similar to 'setup', but operates on a local
wenzelm@30845
  2976
theory context.
haftmann@27104
  2977
wenzelm@28114
  2978
* The 'axiomatization' command now only works within a global theory
wenzelm@28114
  2979
context.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@28114
  2980
wenzelm@30845
  2981
* Goal-directed proof now enforces strict proof irrelevance wrt. sort
wenzelm@30845
  2982
hypotheses.  Sorts required in the course of reasoning need to be
wenzelm@30845
  2983
covered by the constraints in the initial statement, completed by the
wenzelm@30845
  2984
type instance information of the background theory.  Non-trivial sort
wenzelm@30845
  2985
hypotheses, which rarely occur in practice, may be specified via
wenzelm@30845
  2986
vacuous propositions of the form SORT_CONSTRAINT('a::c).  For example:
wenzelm@30845
  2987
wenzelm@30845
  2988
  lemma assumes "SORT_CONSTRAINT('a::empty)" shows False ...
wenzelm@30845
  2989
wenzelm@30845
  2990
The result contains an implicit sort hypotheses as before --
wenzelm@30845
  2991
SORT_CONSTRAINT premises are eliminated as part of the canonical rule
wenzelm@30845
  2992
normalization.
wenzelm@30845
  2993
wenzelm@30845
  2994
* Generalized Isar history, with support for linear undo, direct state
wenzelm@30845
  2995
addressing etc.
wenzelm@30845
  2996
wenzelm@30845
  2997
* Changed defaults for unify configuration options:
wenzelm@30845
  2998
wenzelm@30845
  2999
  unify_trace_bound = 50 (formerly 25)
wenzelm@30845
  3000
  unify_search_bound = 60 (formerly 30)
wenzelm@30845
  3001
wenzelm@30845
  3002
* Different bookkeeping for code equations (INCOMPATIBILITY):
wenzelm@30845
  3003
wenzelm@30845
  3004
  a) On theory merge, the last set of code equations for a particular
wenzelm@30845
  3005
     constant is taken (in accordance with the policy applied by other
wenzelm@30845
  3006
     parts of the code generator framework).
wenzelm@30845
  3007
wenzelm@30845
  3008
  b) Code equations stemming from explicit declarations (e.g. code
wenzelm@30845
  3009
     attribute) gain priority over default code equations stemming
wenzelm@30845
  3010
     from definition, primrec, fun etc.
wenzelm@30845
  3011
wenzelm@30845
  3012
* Keyword 'code_exception' now named 'code_abort'.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3013
haftmann@30965
  3014
* Unified theorem tables for both code generators.  Thus [code
wenzelm@30845
  3015
func] has disappeared and only [code] remains.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30580
  3016
wenzelm@30580
  3017
* Command 'find_consts' searches for constants based on type and name
wenzelm@30580
  3018
patterns, e.g.
kleing@29820
  3019
kleing@29820
  3020
    find_consts "_ => bool"
kleing@29820
  3021
wenzelm@30106
  3022
By default, matching is against subtypes, but it may be restricted to
wenzelm@30731
  3023
the whole type.  Searching by name is possible.  Multiple queries are
wenzelm@30106
  3024
conjunctive and queries may be negated by prefixing them with a
wenzelm@30106
  3025
hyphen:
kleing@29820
  3026
kleing@29820
  3027
    find_consts strict: "_ => bool" name: "Int" -"int => int"
kleing@29798
  3028
wenzelm@30845
  3029
* New 'find_theorems' criterion "solves" matches theorems that
wenzelm@30845
  3030
directly solve the current goal (modulo higher-order unification).
wenzelm@30845
  3031
wenzelm@30845
  3032
* Auto solve feature for main theorem statements: whenever a new goal
wenzelm@30845
  3033
is stated, "find_theorems solves" is called; any theorems that could
wenzelm@30845
  3034
solve the lemma directly are listed as part of the goal state.
wenzelm@30845
  3035
Cf. associated options in Proof General Isabelle settings menu,
wenzelm@30845
  3036
enabled by default, with reasonable timeout for pathological cases of

  3044
syntax just like the Isar command 'by'.

*** HOL ***
haftmann@27651
  3048
wenzelm@30845
  3049
* Integrated main parts of former image HOL-Complex with HOL.  Entry
wenzelm@30845
  3050
points Main and Complex_Main remain as before.
wenzelm@30845
  3051
wenzelm@30845
  3052
* Logic image HOL-Plain provides a minimal HOL with the most important
wenzelm@30845
  3053
tools available (inductive, datatype, primrec, ...).  This facilitates
wenzelm@30845
  3054
experimentation and tool development.  Note that user applications
wenzelm@30845
  3055
(and library theories) should never refer to anything below theory
wenzelm@30845
  3056
Main, as before.
wenzelm@30845
  3057
wenzelm@30845
  3058
* Logic image HOL-Main stops at theory Main, and thus facilitates
wenzelm@30845
  3059
experimentation due to shorter build times.
wenzelm@30845
  3060
wenzelm@30845
  3061
* Logic image HOL-NSA contains theories of nonstandard analysis which
wenzelm@30845
  3062
were previously part of former HOL-Complex.  Entry point Hyperreal
wenzelm@30845
  3063
remains valid, but theories formerly using Complex_Main should now use
wenzelm@30845
  3064
new entry point Hypercomplex.

wenzelm@30845
  3066
* Generic ATP manager for Sledgehammer, based on ML threads instead of
wenzelm@30845
  3067
Posix processes.  Avoids potentially expensive forking of the ML
wenzelm@30845
  3068
process.  New thread-based implementation also works on non-Unix
wenzelm@30845
  3069
platforms (Cygwin).  Provers are no longer hardwired, but defined
wenzelm@30845
  3070
within the theory via plain ML wrapper functions.  Basic Sledgehammer
wenzelm@30845
  3071
commands are covered in the isar-ref manual.
wenzelm@30845
  3072
wenzelm@30845
  3073
* Wrapper scripts for remote SystemOnTPTP service allows to use
wenzelm@30845
  3074
sledgehammer without local ATP installation (Vampire etc.). Other
wenzelm@30845
  3075
provers may be included via suitable ML wrappers, see also

  3081
* The metis method no longer fails because the theorem is too trivial
wenzelm@30845
  3082
(contains the empty clause).
wenzelm@30845
  3083
wenzelm@30845
  3084
* The metis method now fails in the usual manner, rather than raising
wenzelm@30845
  3085
an exception, if it determines that it cannot prove the theorem.
wenzelm@30845
  3086
wenzelm@30845

wenzelm@30845
  3089
wenzelm@30845
  3090
* Constants "undefined" and "default" replace "arbitrary".  Usually
wenzelm@30845
  3091
"undefined" is the right choice to replace "arbitrary", though
wenzelm@30845
  3092
logically there is no difference.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3093
wenzelm@30845
  3094
* Command "value" now integrates different evaluation mechanisms.  The
wenzelm@30845
  3095
result of the first successful evaluation mechanism is printed.  In
wenzelm@30845
  3096
square brackets a particular named evaluation mechanisms may be
wenzelm@30845
  3097
specified (currently, [SML], [code] or [nbe]).  See further

* Normalization by evaluation now allows non-leftlinear equations.
wenzelm@30845
  3101
Declare with attribute [code nbe].
wenzelm@30845
  3102
wenzelm@30845
  3103
* Methods "case_tac" and "induct_tac" now refer to the very same rules
wenzelm@30845
  3104
as the structured Isar versions "cases" and "induct", cf. the
wenzelm@30845
  3105
corresponding "cases" and "induct" attributes.  Mutual induction rules
wenzelm@30845
  3106
are now presented as a list of individual projections
wenzelm@30845
  3107
(e.g. foo_bar.inducts for types foo and bar); the old format with
wenzelm@30845
  3108
explicit HOL conjunction is no longer supported.  INCOMPATIBILITY, in
wenzelm@30845
  3109
rare situations a different rule is selected --- notably nested tuple
wenzelm@30845
  3110
elimination instead of former prod.exhaust: use explicit (case_tac t
wenzelm@30845
  3111
rule: prod.exhaust) here.
wenzelm@30845
  3112
wenzelm@30845
  3113
* Attributes "cases", "induct", "coinduct" support "del" option.
wenzelm@30845
  3114
wenzelm@30845
  3115
* Removed fact "case_split_thm", which duplicates "case_split".
wenzelm@30845
  3116
wenzelm@30845
  3117
* The option datatype has been moved to a new theory Option.  Renamed
wenzelm@30845

wenzelm@30845
  3119
wenzelm@30845
  3120
* New predicate "strict_mono" classifies strict functions on partial
wenzelm@30845
  3121
orders.  With strict functions on linear orders, reasoning about
wenzelm@30845
  3122
(in)equalities is facilitated by theorems "strict_mono_eq",
wenzelm@30845

"strict_mono_less_eq" and "strict_mono_less".

* If methods "eval" and "evaluation" encounter a structured proof
wenzelm@30845
  3216
state with !!/==>, only the conclusion is evaluated to True (if
wenzelm@30845
  3217
possible), avoiding strange error messages.
wenzelm@30845
  3218
wenzelm@30845
  3219
* Method "sizechange" automates termination proofs using (a
wenzelm@30845
  3220
modification of) the size-change principle.  Requires SAT solver.  See
wenzelm@30845
  3221
src/HOL/ex/Termination.thy for examples.
wenzelm@30845
  3222
wenzelm@30845
  3223
* Simplifier: simproc for let expressions now unfolds if bound
wenzelm@30845
  3224
variable occurs at most once in let expression body.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3225
wenzelm@30845
  3226
* Method "arith": Linear arithmetic now ignores all inequalities when
wenzelm@30845
  3227
fast_arith_neq_limit is exceeded, instead of giving up entirely.
wenzelm@30845
  3228
wenzelm@30845
  3229
* New attribute "arith" for facts that should always be used
wenzelm@30845
  3230
automatically by arithmetic. It is intended to be used locally in
wenzelm@30845
  3231
proofs, e.g.
wenzelm@30845
  3232
wenzelm@30845
  3233
  assumes [arith]: "x > 0"
wenzelm@30845
  3234
nipkow@30702
  3235
Global usage is discouraged because of possible performance impact.
nipkow@30702
  3236
wenzelm@30845
  3237
* New classes "top" and "bot" with corresponding operations "top" and
wenzelm@30845
  3238
"bot" in theory Orderings; instantiation of class "complete_lattice"
wenzelm@30845
  3239
requires instantiation of classes "top" and "bot".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3240
wenzelm@30845
  3241
* Changed definition lemma "less_fun_def" in order to provide an
wenzelm@30845
  3242
instance for preorders on functions; use lemma "less_le" instead.
wenzelm@30845
  3243
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3244
wenzelm@30845
  3245
* Theory Orderings: class "wellorder" moved here, with explicit
wenzelm@30845
  3246
induction rule "less_induct" as assumption.  For instantiation of
wenzelm@30845
  3247
"wellorder" by means of predicate "wf", use rule wf_wellorderI.
wenzelm@30845
  3248
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3249
wenzelm@30845
  3250
* Theory Orderings: added class "preorder" as superclass of "order".
wenzelm@27793
  3251
INCOMPATIBILITY: Instantiation proofs for order, linorder
wenzelm@27793
  3252
etc. slightly changed.  Some theorems named order_class.* now named
wenzelm@27793
  3253
preorder_class.*.
wenzelm@27793
  3254
wenzelm@30845
  3255
* Theory Relation: renamed "refl" to "refl_on", "reflexive" to "refl,
wenzelm@30845
  3256
"diag" to "Id_on".
wenzelm@30845
  3257
wenzelm@30845
  3258
* Theory Finite_Set: added a new fold combinator of type
wenzelm@30845
  3259
nipkow@28855
  3260
  ('a => 'b => 'b) => 'b => 'a set => 'b
wenzelm@30845
  3261
wenzelm@30845
  3262
Occasionally this is more convenient than the old fold combinator
wenzelm@30845
  3263
which is now defined in terms of the new one and renamed to
wenzelm@30845
  3264
fold_image.
wenzelm@30845
  3265
wenzelm@30845
  3266
* Theories Ring_and_Field and OrderedGroup: The lemmas "group_simps"
wenzelm@30845
  3267
and "ring_simps" have been replaced by "algebra_simps" (which can be
wenzelm@30845
  3268
extended with further lemmas!).  At the moment both still exist but
wenzelm@30845
  3269
the former will disappear at some point.
wenzelm@30845
  3270
wenzelm@30845
  3271
* Theory Power: Lemma power_Suc is now declared as a simp rule in
wenzelm@30845
  3272
class recpower.  Type-specific simp rules for various recpower types
wenzelm@30845
  3273
have been removed.  INCOMPATIBILITY, rename old lemmas as follows:
huffman@30269
  3274

  3275
rat_power_0    -> power_0
huffman@30269

power_poly_Suc -> power_Suc
huffman@30269
  3283
wenzelm@30845
  3284
* Theories Ring_and_Field and Divides: Definition of "op dvd" has been
wenzelm@27793
  3285
moved to separate class dvd in Ring_and_Field; a couple of lemmas on
wenzelm@27793
  3286
dvd has been generalized to class comm_semiring_1.  Likewise a bunch
wenzelm@27793
  3287
of lemmas from Divides has been generalized from nat to class
wenzelm@27793
  3288
semiring_div.  INCOMPATIBILITY.  This involves the following theorem
wenzelm@27793
  3289
renames resulting from duplicate elimination:

  3299
* Theory IntDiv: removed many lemmas that are instances of class-based
wenzelm@30845
  3300
generalizations (from Divides and Ring_and_Field).  INCOMPATIBILITY,
wenzelm@30845

* Theory Rational: 'Fract k 0' now equals '0'.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3350
wenzelm@30845
  3351
* The real numbers offer decimal input syntax: 12.34 is translated

into 1234/10^2. This translation is not reversed upon output.
wenzelm@30845
  3353
wenzelm@30845
  3354
* Theory Library/Polynomial defines an abstract type 'a poly of
wenzelm@30845
  3355
univariate polynomials with coefficients of type 'a.  In addition to
wenzelm@30845
  3356
the standard ring operations, it also supports div and mod.  Code
wenzelm@30845
  3357
generation is also supported, using list-style constructors.
wenzelm@30845
  3358
wenzelm@30845
  3359
* Theory Library/Inner_Product defines a class of real_inner for real
wenzelm@30845
  3360
inner product spaces, with an overloaded operation inner :: 'a => 'a
wenzelm@30845
  3361
=> real.  Class real_inner is a subclass of real_normed_vector from
wenzelm@30845
  3362
theory RealVector.
wenzelm@30845
  3363
wenzelm@30845
  3364
* Theory Library/Product_Vector provides instances for the product
wenzelm@30845
  3365
type 'a * 'b of several classes from RealVector and Inner_Product.
wenzelm@30845
  3366
Definitions of addition, subtraction, scalar multiplication, norms,

  3367
and inner products are included.
wenzelm@30845
  3368
wenzelm@30845
  3369
* Theory Library/Bit defines the field "bit" of integers modulo 2.  In
wenzelm@30845
  3370
addition to the field operations, numerals and case syntax are also
wenzelm@30845
  3371
supported.
wenzelm@30845
  3372
wenzelm@30845
  3373

wenzelm@30845
  3374
first diagonalization argument.
wenzelm@30845
  3375
wenzelm@30845
  3376
* Theory Library/GCD: Curried operations gcd, lcm (for nat) and zgcd,
haftmann@27651
  3377
zlcm (for int); carried together from various gcd/lcm developements in
wenzelm@30845
  3378
the HOL Distribution.  Constants zgcd and zlcm replace former igcd and
wenzelm@30845
  3379
ilcm; corresponding theorems renamed accordingly.  INCOMPATIBILITY,
wenzelm@30845
  3380
may recover tupled syntax as follows:
haftmann@27651
  3381
haftmann@27651
  3382
    hide (open) const gcd
haftmann@27651
  3383
    abbreviation gcd where
haftmann@27651
  3384
      "gcd == (%(a, b). GCD.gcd a b)"
haftmann@27651
  3385
    notation (output)
haftmann@27651
  3386
      GCD.gcd ("gcd '(_, _')")
haftmann@27651
  3387
wenzelm@30845
  3388
The same works for lcm, zgcd, zlcm.
wenzelm@30845
  3389
wenzelm@30845
  3390
* Theory Library/Nat_Infinity: added addition, numeral syntax and more
wenzelm@30845
  3391
instantiations for algebraic structures.  Removed some duplicate
wenzelm@30845
  3392
theorems.  Changes in simp rules.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@30845
  3393
wenzelm@30845
  3394
* ML antiquotation @{code} takes a constant as argument and generates
wenzelm@27519
  3395
corresponding code in background and inserts name of the corresponding
wenzelm@27519
  3396
resulting ML value/function/datatype constructor binding in place.
wenzelm@27519
  3397
All occurrences of @{code} with a single ML block are generated
wenzelm@27519
  3398
simultaneously.  Provides a generic and safe interface for
wenzelm@30845
  3399
instrumentalizing code generation.  See
wenzelm@30845
  3400
src/HOL/Decision_Procs/Ferrack.thy for a more ambitious application.
wenzelm@30845

In future you ought to refrain from ad-hoc compiling generated SML

wenzelm@29161
  3508
particularly convenient to organize independent functional
wenzelm@29161

  3511
delicate details of mutexes and condition variables.  (Requires

* ML bindings produced via Isar commands are stored within the Isar
wenzelm@30845

become thread-safe and work with undo as expected (concerning

  3549
move from structure NameSpace to Long_Name, e.g. Long_Name.base_name,
wenzelm@30395
  3550
Long_Name.append.  Old type bstring has been mostly replaced by
wenzelm@30395
  3551
abstract type binding (see structure Binding), which supports precise
wenzelm@30845
  3552
qualification by packages and local theory targets, as well as proper
wenzelm@30845
  3553
tracking of source positions.  INCOMPATIBILITY, need to wrap old

wenzelm@30845
  3576

* More flexible generation of measure functions for termination
wenzelm@27067
  3779
proofs: Measure functions can be declared by proving a rule of the
wenzelm@27067
  3780
form "is_measure f" and giving it the [measure_function] attribute.
wenzelm@27067
  3781
The "is_measure" predicate is logically meaningless (always true), and
wenzelm@27067
  3782
just guides the heuristic.  To find suitable measure functions, the
wenzelm@27067
  3783
termination prover sets up the goal "is_measure ?f" of the appropriate
wenzelm@27067
  3784
type and generates all solutions by prolog-style backwards proof using
wenzelm@27067
  3785
the declared rules.
wenzelm@27067
  3786
wenzelm@27067
  3787
This setup also deals with rules like 
wenzelm@27067
  3788

  "is_measure f ==> is_measure (list_size f)"
wenzelm@27067

wenzelm@25464
  3953
schirmer@25705
  3954
* Records. Removed K_record, and replaced it by pure lambda term
wenzelm@25726
  3955
%x. c. The simplifier setup is now more robust against eta expansion.
schirmer@25705
  3956
INCOMPATIBILITY: in cases explicitly referring to K_record.
wenzelm@25464

*** ML ***
wenzelm@25737
  3986
wenzelm@27067
  3987
* ML within Isar: antiquotation @{const name} or @{const
wenzelm@27067
  3988
name(typargs)} produces statically-checked Const term.
wenzelm@27067
  3989
wenzelm@26401
  3990
* Functor NamedThmsFun: data is available to the user as dynamic fact
wenzelm@26724
  3991
(of the same name).  Removed obsolete print command.
wenzelm@26401
  3992
wenzelm@27067
  3993
* Removed obsolete "use_legacy_bindings" function.
wenzelm@26188
  3994
wenzelm@25737
  3995
* The ``print mode'' is now a thread-local value derived from a global
wenzelm@25737
  3996
template (the former print_mode reference), thus access becomes
wenzelm@25737
  3997
non-critical.  The global print_mode reference is for session
wenzelm@25737
  3998
management only; user-code should use print_mode_value,
wenzelm@25737
  3999
print_mode_active, PrintMode.setmp etc.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@25737
  4000
wenzelm@26874
  4001
* Functions system/system_out provide a robust way to invoke external
wenzelm@29161
  4002
shell commands, with propagation of interrupts (requires Poly/ML
wenzelm@29161
  4003
5.2.1).  Do not use OS.Process.system etc. from the basis library!

"javapath" function defined in Isabelle process environment.
wenzelm@27067
  4017
wenzelm@26575

* YXML notation provides a simple and efficient alternative to
wenzelm@26575
  4019
standard XML transfer syntax.  See src/Pure/General/yxml.ML and
wenzelm@26575
  4020
isatool yxml as described in the Isabelle system manual.
wenzelm@26575

wenzelm@27067

* JVM class isabelle.IsabelleProcess (located in Isabelle/lib/classes)
wenzelm@27067
  4023
provides general wrapper for managing an Isabelle process in a robust
wenzelm@27067
  4024
fashion, with ``cooked'' output from stdin/stderr.

based on Isabelle/JVM process wrapper (see Isabelle/lib/classes).
wenzelm@27067
  4028
wenzelm@26575
  4029
* Removed obsolete THIS_IS_ISABELLE_BUILD feature.  NB: the documented
wenzelm@26575
  4030
way of changing the user's settings is via
wenzelm@26218
  4031
ISABELLE_HOME_USER/etc/settings, which is a fully featured bash

wenzelm@25776
  4034
* Multithreading.max_threads := 0 refers to the number of actual CPU
wenzelm@25776
  4035
cores of the underlying machine, which is a good starting point for
wenzelm@25776
  4036
optimal performance tuning.  The corresponding usedir option -M allows
wenzelm@25778
  4037
"max" as an alias for "0".  WARNING: does not work on certain versions
wenzelm@25778
  4038
of Mac OS (with Poly/ML 5.1).
wenzelm@25776
  4039
wenzelm@27067
  4040
* isabelle-process: non-ML sessions are run with "nice", to reduce the

wenzelm@17754
  4049
*** General ***
wenzelm@17754
  4050
wenzelm@22826
  4051
* More uniform information about legacy features, notably a
wenzelm@22826
  4052
warning/error of "Legacy feature: ...", depending on the state of the
wenzelm@23367
  4053
tolerate_legacy_features flag (default true). FUTURE INCOMPATIBILITY:
wenzelm@23367
  4054
legacy features will disappear eventually.
wenzelm@22826
  4055
wenzelm@17918
  4056
* Theory syntax: the header format ``theory A = B + C:'' has been
wenzelm@17918
  4057
discontinued in favour of ``theory A imports B C begin''.  Use isatool
wenzelm@17918
  4058
fixheaders to convert existing theory files.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@17918
  4059
wenzelm@17918
  4060
* Theory syntax: the old non-Isar theory file format has been
wenzelm@17918
  4061
discontinued altogether.  Note that ML proof scripts may still be used
wenzelm@17918
  4062
with Isar theories; migration is usually quite simple with the ML
wenzelm@17918
  4063
function use_legacy_bindings.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@17918
  4064
wenzelm@22871
  4065
* Theory syntax: some popular names (e.g. 'class', 'declaration',
wenzelm@22871
  4066
'fun', 'help', 'if') are now keywords.  INCOMPATIBILITY, use double
wenzelm@22871
  4067
quotes.
wenzelm@19814
  4068
wenzelm@23888
  4069
* Theory loader: be more serious about observing the static theory
wenzelm@23888
  4070
header specifications (including optional directories), but not the
wenzelm@24172
  4071
accidental file locations of previously successful loads.  The strict
wenzelm@24172
  4072
update policy of former update_thy is now already performed by
wenzelm@24172
  4073
use_thy, so the former has been removed; use_thys updates several
wenzelm@24172
  4074
theories simultaneously, just as 'imports' within a theory header
wenzelm@24172
  4075
specification, but without merging the results.  Potential
wenzelm@24172
  4076
INCOMPATIBILITY: may need to refine theory headers and commands
wenzelm@24172
  4077
ROOT.ML which depend on load order.
wenzelm@23888
  4078
wenzelm@23888
  4079
* Theory loader: optional support for content-based file
wenzelm@23888
  4080
identification, instead of the traditional scheme of full physical
wenzelm@23889
  4081
path plus date stamp; configured by the ISABELLE_FILE_IDENT setting
wenzelm@23888
  4082
(cf. the system manual).  The new scheme allows to work with
wenzelm@23888
  4083
non-finished theories in persistent session images, such that source
wenzelm@23888
  4084
files may be moved later on without requiring reloads.
wenzelm@23888
  4085
wenzelm@24187
  4086
* Theory loader: old-style ML proof scripts being *attached* to a thy
wenzelm@24187
  4087
file (with the same base name as the theory) are considered a legacy
wenzelm@24800
  4088
feature, which will disappear eventually. Even now, the theory loader
wenzelm@24800
  4089
no longer maintains dependencies on such files.
wenzelm@24800
  4090
wenzelm@24800
  4091
* Syntax: the scope for resolving ambiguities via type-inference is
wenzelm@24800
  4092
now limited to individual terms, instead of whole simultaneous
wenzelm@24234
  4093
specifications as before. This greatly reduces the complexity of the
wenzelm@24234
  4094
syntax module and improves flexibility by separating parsing and
wenzelm@24234
  4095
type-checking. INCOMPATIBILITY: additional type-constraints (explicit
wenzelm@24234
  4096
'fixes' etc.) are required in rare situations.
wenzelm@24234
  4097
wenzelm@25034
  4098
* Syntax: constants introduced by new-style packages ('definition',
wenzelm@25034
  4099
'abbreviation' etc.) are passed through the syntax module in
wenzelm@25034
  4100
``authentic mode''. This means that associated mixfix annotations
wenzelm@25034
  4101
really stick to such constants, independently of potential name space
wenzelm@25034
  4102
ambiguities introduced later on. INCOMPATIBILITY: constants in parse
wenzelm@25034
  4103
trees are represented slightly differently, may need to adapt syntax
wenzelm@25034
  4104
translations accordingly. Use CONST marker in 'translations' and
wenzelm@25034
  4105
@{const_syntax} antiquotation in 'parse_translation' etc.
wenzelm@25034
  4106
wenzelm@17981
  4107
* Legacy goal package: reduced interface to the bare minimum required
wenzelm@17981
  4108
to keep existing proof scripts running.  Most other user-level
wenzelm@17981
  4109
functions are now part of the OldGoals structure, which is *not* open
wenzelm@17981
  4110
by default (consider isatool expandshort before open OldGoals).
wenzelm@17981
  4111
Removed top_sg, prin, printyp, pprint_term/typ altogether, because
wenzelm@17981
  4112
these tend to cause confusion about the actual goal (!) context being
wenzelm@17981
  4113
used here, which is not necessarily the same as the_context().
wenzelm@17918
  4114
wenzelm@23379
  4115
* Command 'find_theorems': supports "*" wild-card in "name:"
wenzelm@23379
  4116
criterion; "with_dups" option.  Certain ProofGeneral versions might
wenzelm@23379
  4117
support a specific search form (see ProofGeneral/CHANGES).
webertj@22965
  4118
wenzelm@20370
  4119
* The ``prems limit'' option (cf. ProofContext.prems_limit) is now -1
wenzelm@20370
  4120
by default, which means that "prems" (and also "fixed variables") are
wenzelm@20370
  4121
suppressed from proof state output.  Note that the ProofGeneral
wenzelm@20370
  4122
settings mechanism allows to change and save options persistently, but
wenzelm@20370
  4123
older versions of Isabelle will fail to start up if a negative prems
wenzelm@20370
  4124
limit is imposed.
wenzelm@20370
  4125
wenzelm@21308
  4126
* Local theory targets may be specified by non-nested blocks of
wenzelm@21308
  4127
``context/locale/class ... begin'' followed by ``end''.  The body may
wenzelm@21308
  4128
contain definitions, theorems etc., including any derived mechanism
wenzelm@21308
  4129
that has been implemented on top of these primitives.  This concept
wenzelm@21308
  4130
generalizes the existing ``theorem (in ...)'' towards more versatility
wenzelm@21308
  4131
and scalability.
wenzelm@21308
  4132
wenzelm@21960
  4133
* Proof General interface: proper undo of final 'end' command;
wenzelm@21960
  4134
discontinued Isabelle/classic mode (ML proof scripts).

*** Document preparation ***
wenzelm@17865
  4138
wenzelm@21717
  4139
* Added antiquotation @{theory name} which prints the given name,
wenzelm@21717
  4140
after checking that it refers to a valid ancestor theory in the
wenzelm@21717
  4141
current context.
haftmann@21339
  4142
wenzelm@17869
  4143
* Added antiquotations @{ML_type text} and @{ML_struct text} which
wenzelm@17869
  4144
check the given source text as ML type/structure, printing verbatim.
wenzelm@17865
  4145
wenzelm@21717
  4146
* Added antiquotation @{abbrev "c args"} which prints the abbreviation
wenzelm@21717
  4147
"c args == rhs" given in the current context.  (Any number of
wenzelm@21735
  4148
arguments may be given on the LHS.)

wenzelm@24800
  4153
* The 'class' package offers a combination of axclass and locale to
wenzelm@25129
  4154
achieve Haskell-like type classes in Isabelle.  Definitions and
wenzelm@25129
  4155
theorems within a class context produce both relative results (with
wenzelm@25129
  4156
implicit parameters according to the locale context), and polymorphic
wenzelm@25129
  4157
constants with qualified polymorphism (according to the class
wenzelm@25129
  4158
context).  Within the body context of a 'class' target, a separate
wenzelm@25129
  4159
syntax layer ("user space type system") takes care of converting
wenzelm@25129
  4160
between global polymorphic consts and internal locale representation.

    [code fun]:        select a theorem as function equation for a specific constant
haftmann@22845

generation from Isabelle/HOL theories is available via "isatool doc

* Code generator: consts in 'consts_code' Isar commands are now
wenzelm@25129
  4213
referred to by usual term syntax (including optional type
wenzelm@25129
  4214
annotations).
wenzelm@25129
  4215
wenzelm@19254
  4216
* Command 'no_translations' removes translation rules from theory
wenzelm@19254
  4217
syntax.
wenzelm@19254
  4218
wenzelm@19625
  4219
* Overloaded definitions are now actually checked for acyclic
wenzelm@19714
  4220
dependencies.  The overloading scheme is slightly more general than
wenzelm@19714
  4221
that of Haskell98, although Isabelle does not demand an exact
wenzelm@19714
  4222
correspondence to type class and instance declarations.
wenzelm@19714
  4223
INCOMPATIBILITY, use ``defs (unchecked overloaded)'' to admit more
wenzelm@19714
  4224
exotic versions of overloading -- at the discretion of the user!
wenzelm@19711
  4225
wenzelm@19711
  4226
Polymorphic constants are represented via type arguments, i.e. the
wenzelm@19711
  4227
instantiation that matches an instance against the most general
wenzelm@19711
  4228
declaration given in the signature.  For example, with the declaration
wenzelm@19711
  4229
c :: 'a => 'a => 'a, an instance c :: nat => nat => nat is represented
wenzelm@19711
  4230
as c(nat).  Overloading is essentially simultaneous structural
wenzelm@19711
  4231
recursion over such type arguments.  Incomplete specification patterns
wenzelm@19714
  4232
impose global constraints on all occurrences, e.g. c('a * 'a) on the
wenzelm@19715
  4233
LHS means that more general c('a * 'b) will be disallowed on any RHS.
wenzelm@19714
  4234
Command 'print_theory' outputs the normalized system of recursive
wenzelm@19714
  4235
equations, see section "definitions".
wenzelm@19625
  4236
wenzelm@24086
  4237
* Configuration options are maintained within the theory or proof
wenzelm@24086
  4238
context (with name and type bool/int/string), providing a very simple
wenzelm@24086
  4239
interface to a poor-man's version of general context data.  Tools may
wenzelm@24110
  4240
declare options in ML (e.g. using Attrib.config_int) and then refer to
wenzelm@24110
  4241
these values using Config.get etc.  Users may change options via an
wenzelm@24110
  4242
associated attribute of the same name.  This form of context
wenzelm@24110
  4243
declaration works particularly well with commands 'declare' or
wenzelm@24110
  4244
'using', for example ``declare [[foo = 42]]''.  Thus it has become
wenzelm@24110
  4245
very easy to avoid global references, which would not observe Isar
wenzelm@24110
  4246
toplevel undo/redo and fail to work with multithreading.
wenzelm@24086
  4247
wenzelm@24172
  4248
Various global ML references of Pure and HOL have been turned into
wenzelm@24172
  4249
configuration options:

  4260
wenzelm@24086
  4261
* Named collections of theorems may be easily installed as context
wenzelm@24800
  4262
data using the functor NamedThmsFun (see also
wenzelm@24086
  4263
src/Pure/Tools/named_thms.ML).  The user may add or delete facts via
wenzelm@24110
  4264
attributes; there is also a toplevel print command.  This facility is
wenzelm@24110
  4265
just a common case of general context data, which is the preferred way
wenzelm@24110
  4266
for anything more complex than just a list of facts in canonical
wenzelm@24110
  4267
order.
wenzelm@24086
  4268
wenzelm@24032
  4269
* Isar: command 'declaration' augments a local theory by generic
wenzelm@24032
  4270
declaration functions written in ML.  This enables arbitrary content
wenzelm@24032
  4271
being added to the context, depending on a morphism that tells the
wenzelm@24032
  4272
difference of the original declaration context wrt. the application
wenzelm@24032
  4273
context encountered later on.
wenzelm@24032
  4274
wenzelm@24032
  4275
* Isar: proper interfaces for simplification procedures.  Command
wenzelm@24032
  4276
'simproc_setup' declares named simprocs (with match patterns, and body
wenzelm@24032
  4277
text in ML).  Attribute "simproc" adds/deletes simprocs in the current
wenzelm@24032
  4278
context.  ML antiquotation @{simproc name} retrieves named simprocs.
wenzelm@24032
  4279
wenzelm@24032
  4280
* Isar: an extra pair of brackets around attribute declarations
wenzelm@24032
  4281
abbreviates a theorem reference involving an internal dummy fact,
wenzelm@24032
  4282
which will be ignored later --- only the effect of the attribute on
wenzelm@24032
  4283
the background context will persist.  This form of in-place
wenzelm@24032
  4284
declarations is particularly useful with commands like 'declare' and
wenzelm@24032
  4285
'using', for example ``have A using [[simproc a]] by simp''.
wenzelm@24032
  4286
wenzelm@23369
  4287
* Isar: method "assumption" (and implicit closing of subproofs) now
wenzelm@23369
  4288
takes simple non-atomic goal assumptions into account: after applying
wenzelm@23369
  4289
an assumption as a rule the resulting subgoals are solved by atomic
wenzelm@23369
  4290
assumption steps.  This is particularly useful to finish 'obtain'
wenzelm@23369
  4291
goals, such as "!!x. (!!x. P x ==> thesis) ==> P x ==> thesis",
wenzelm@23369
  4292
without referring to the original premise "!!x. P x ==> thesis" in the
wenzelm@23369
  4293
Isar proof context.  POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY: method "assumption" is
wenzelm@23369
  4294
more permissive.
wenzelm@23369
  4295
wenzelm@23369
  4296
* Isar: implicit use of prems from the Isar proof context is
wenzelm@23369
  4297
considered a legacy feature.  Common applications like ``have A .''
wenzelm@23369
  4298
may be replaced by ``have A by fact'' or ``note `A`''.  In general,
wenzelm@23369
  4299
referencing facts explicitly here improves readability and
wenzelm@23369
  4300
maintainability of proof texts.
wenzelm@23369
  4301
wenzelm@17865
  4302
* Isar: improper proof element 'guess' is like 'obtain', but derives
wenzelm@17865
  4303
the obtained context from the course of reasoning!  For example:
wenzelm@17865
  4304
wenzelm@17865
  4305
  assume "EX x y. A x & B y"   -- "any previous fact"
wenzelm@17865
  4306
  then guess x and y by clarify
wenzelm@17865
  4307
wenzelm@17865
  4308
This technique is potentially adventurous, depending on the facts and
wenzelm@17865
  4309
proof tools being involved here.
wenzelm@17865
  4310
wenzelm@18020
  4311
* Isar: known facts from the proof context may be specified as literal
wenzelm@18020
  4312
propositions, using ASCII back-quote syntax.  This works wherever
wenzelm@18020
  4313
named facts used to be allowed so far, in proof commands, proof
wenzelm@18020
  4314
methods, attributes etc.  Literal facts are retrieved from the context
wenzelm@18020
  4315
according to unification of type and term parameters.  For example,
wenzelm@18020
  4316
provided that "A" and "A ==> B" and "!!x. P x ==> Q x" are known
wenzelm@18020
  4317
theorems in the current context, then these are valid literal facts:
wenzelm@18020
  4318
`A` and `A ==> B` and `!!x. P x ==> Q x" as well as `P a ==> Q a` etc.
wenzelm@18020
  4319
wenzelm@18020
  4320
There is also a proof method "fact" which does the same composition
wenzelm@18044
  4321
for explicit goal states, e.g. the following proof texts coincide with
wenzelm@18044
  4322
certain special cases of literal facts:
wenzelm@18020
  4323
wenzelm@18020
  4324
  have "A" by fact                 ==  note `A`
wenzelm@18020
  4325
  have "A ==> B" by fact           ==  note `A ==> B`
wenzelm@18020
  4326
  have "!!x. P x ==> Q x" by fact  ==  note `!!x. P x ==> Q x`
wenzelm@18020
  4327
  have "P a ==> Q a" by fact       ==  note `P a ==> Q a`
wenzelm@18020
  4328
wenzelm@20118
  4329
* Isar: ":" (colon) is no longer a symbolic identifier character in
wenzelm@20118
  4330
outer syntax.  Thus symbolic identifiers may be used without
wenzelm@20118
  4331
additional white space in declarations like this: ``assume *: A''.
wenzelm@20118
  4332
wenzelm@20013
  4333
* Isar: 'print_facts' prints all local facts of the current context,
wenzelm@20013
  4334
both named and unnamed ones.
wenzelm@20013
  4335
wenzelm@18308
  4336
* Isar: 'def' now admits simultaneous definitions, e.g.:
wenzelm@18308
  4337
wenzelm@18308
  4338
  def x == "t" and y == "u"
wenzelm@18308
  4339
wenzelm@18540
  4340
* Isar: added command 'unfolding', which is structurally similar to
wenzelm@18540
  4341
'using', but affects both the goal state and facts by unfolding given
wenzelm@18815
  4342
rewrite rules.  Thus many occurrences of the 'unfold' method or
wenzelm@18540
  4343
'unfolded' attribute may be replaced by first-class proof text.
wenzelm@18540
  4344
wenzelm@18815
  4345
* Isar: methods 'unfold' / 'fold', attributes 'unfolded' / 'folded',
wenzelm@18815
  4346
and command 'unfolding' now all support object-level equalities
wenzelm@18815
  4347
(potentially conditional).  The underlying notion of rewrite rule is
wenzelm@18815
  4348
analogous to the 'rule_format' attribute, but *not* that of the
wenzelm@18815
  4349
Simplifier (which is usually more generous).
wenzelm@18815
  4350
kleing@24238
  4351
* Isar: the new attribute [rotated n] (default n = 1) rotates the
kleing@24238
  4352
premises of a theorem by n. Useful in conjunction with drule.
kleing@24238
  4353
wenzelm@19220
  4354
* Isar: the goal restriction operator [N] (default N = 1) evaluates a
wenzelm@19220
  4355
method expression within a sandbox consisting of the first N
wenzelm@19240
  4356
sub-goals, which need to exist.  For example, ``simp_all [3]''
wenzelm@19240
  4357
simplifies the first three sub-goals, while (rule foo, simp_all)[]
wenzelm@19240
  4358
simplifies all new goals that emerge from applying rule foo to the
wenzelm@19240
  4359
originally first one.
wenzelm@19220
  4360
wenzelm@19814
  4361
* Isar: schematic goals are no longer restricted to higher-order
wenzelm@19814
  4362
patterns; e.g. ``lemma "?P(?x)" by (rule TrueI)'' now works as
wenzelm@19814
  4363
expected.
wenzelm@19814
  4364
wenzelm@18901
  4365
* Isar: the conclusion of a long theorem statement is now either
wenzelm@18901
  4366
'shows' (a simultaneous conjunction, as before), or 'obtains'
wenzelm@18901
  4367
(essentially a disjunction of cases with local parameters and
wenzelm@18901
  4368
assumptions).  The latter allows to express general elimination rules
wenzelm@18910
  4369
adequately; in this notation common elimination rules look like this:
wenzelm@18901
  4370
wenzelm@18901
  4371
  lemma exE:    -- "EX x. P x ==> (!!x. P x ==> thesis) ==> thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4372
    assumes "EX x. P x"
wenzelm@18901
  4373
    obtains x where "P x"
wenzelm@18901
  4374
wenzelm@18901
  4375
  lemma conjE:  -- "A & B ==> (A ==> B ==> thesis) ==> thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4376
    assumes "A & B"
wenzelm@18901
  4377
    obtains A and B
wenzelm@18901
  4378
wenzelm@18901
  4379
  lemma disjE:  -- "A | B ==> (A ==> thesis) ==> (B ==> thesis) ==> thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4380
    assumes "A | B"
wenzelm@18901
  4381
    obtains
wenzelm@18901
  4382
      A
wenzelm@18901
  4383
    | B
wenzelm@18901
  4384
wenzelm@18910
  4385
The subsequent classical rules even refer to the formal "thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4386
explicitly:
wenzelm@18901
  4387
wenzelm@18901
  4388
  lemma classical:     -- "(~ thesis ==> thesis) ==> thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4389
    obtains "~ thesis"
wenzelm@18901
  4390
wenzelm@18910
  4391
  lemma Peirce's_Law:  -- "((thesis ==> something) ==> thesis) ==> thesis"
wenzelm@18910
  4392
    obtains "thesis ==> something"
wenzelm@18901
  4393
wenzelm@18901
  4394
The actual proof of an 'obtains' statement is analogous to that of the
wenzelm@18910
  4395
Isar proof element 'obtain', only that there may be several cases.
wenzelm@18910
  4396
Optional case names may be specified in parentheses; these will be
wenzelm@18910
  4397
available both in the present proof and as annotations in the
wenzelm@18910
  4398
resulting rule, for later use with the 'cases' method (cf. attribute
wenzelm@18910
  4399
case_names).
wenzelm@18901
  4400
wenzelm@21447
  4401
* Isar: the assumptions of a long theorem statement are available as
wenzelm@21447
  4402
"assms" fact in the proof context.  This is more appropriate than the
wenzelm@21447
  4403
(historical) "prems", which refers to all assumptions of the current
wenzelm@21447
  4404
context, including those from the target locale, proof body etc.
wenzelm@21447
  4405
wenzelm@19263
  4406
* Isar: 'print_statement' prints theorems from the current theory or
wenzelm@19263
  4407
proof context in long statement form, according to the syntax of a
wenzelm@19263
  4408
top-level lemma.
wenzelm@19263
  4409
wenzelm@18901
  4410
* Isar: 'obtain' takes an optional case name for the local context
wenzelm@18901
  4411
introduction rule (default "that").
wenzelm@18901
  4412
wenzelm@19587
  4413
* Isar: removed obsolete 'concl is' patterns.  INCOMPATIBILITY, use
wenzelm@19587
  4414
explicit (is "_ ==> ?foo") in the rare cases where this still happens
wenzelm@19587
  4415
to occur.
wenzelm@19587
  4416
wenzelm@19682
  4417
* Pure: syntax "CONST name" produces a fully internalized constant
wenzelm@19682
  4418
according to the current context.  This is particularly useful for
wenzelm@19682
  4419
syntax translations that should refer to internal constant
wenzelm@19682
  4420
representations independently of name spaces.
wenzelm@19682
  4421
wenzelm@21537
  4422
* Pure: syntax constant for foo (binder "FOO ") is called "foo_binder"
wenzelm@21537
  4423
instead of "FOO ". This allows multiple binder declarations to coexist
wenzelm@21537
  4424
in the same context.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@21537
  4425
wenzelm@21209
  4426
* Isar/locales: 'notation' provides a robust interface to the 'syntax'
wenzelm@21209
  4427
primitive that also works in a locale context (both for constants and
wenzelm@24950
  4428
fixed variables). Type declaration and internal syntactic representation
wenzelm@24950
  4429
of given constants retrieved from the context. Likewise, the
wenzelm@24950
  4430
'no_notation' command allows to remove given syntax annotations from the
wenzelm@24950
  4431
current context.
wenzelm@19682
  4432
wenzelm@19665
  4433
* Isar/locales: new derived specification elements 'axiomatization',
wenzelm@19665
  4434
'definition', 'abbreviation', which support type-inference, admit
wenzelm@19083
  4435
object-level specifications (equality, equivalence).  See also the
wenzelm@19083
  4436
isar-ref manual.  Examples:
wenzelm@19081
  4437
wenzelm@19665
  4438
  axiomatization
wenzelm@21595
  4439
    eq  (infix "===" 50) where
wenzelm@21595
  4440
    eq_refl: "x === x" and eq_subst: "x === y ==> P x ==> P y"
wenzelm@21595
  4441
wenzelm@21595
  4442
  definition "f x y = x + y + 1"
wenzelm@21595
  4443
  definition g where "g x = f x x"
wenzelm@19081
  4444
wenzelm@19363
  4445
  abbreviation
wenzelm@21595
  4446
    neq  (infix "=!=" 50) where
wenzelm@19363
  4447
    "x =!= y == ~ (x === y)"
wenzelm@19081
  4448
wenzelm@19083
  4449
These specifications may be also used in a locale context.  Then the
wenzelm@19083
  4450
constants being introduced depend on certain fixed parameters, and the
wenzelm@19083
  4451
constant name is qualified by the locale base name.  An internal
wenzelm@19083
  4452
abbreviation takes care for convenient input and output, making the
wenzelm@19088
  4453
parameters implicit and using the original short name.  See also
wenzelm@25177
  4454
src/HOL/ex/Abstract_NAT.thy for an example of deriving polymorphic
wenzelm@19083
  4455
entities from a monomorphic theory.
wenzelm@19083
  4456
wenzelm@19083
  4457
Presently, abbreviations are only available 'in' a target locale, but
wenzelm@19363
  4458
not inherited by general import expressions.  Also note that
wenzelm@19363
  4459
'abbreviation' may be used as a type-safe replacement for 'syntax' +
wenzelm@24735
  4460
'translations' in common applications.  The "no_abbrevs" print mode
wenzelm@24735
  4461
prevents folding of abbreviations in term output.
wenzelm@19084
  4462
wenzelm@19682
  4463
Concrete syntax is attached to specified constants in internal form,
wenzelm@19682
  4464
independently of name spaces.  The parse tree representation is
wenzelm@21209
  4465
slightly different -- use 'notation' instead of raw 'syntax', and
wenzelm@19682
  4466
'translations' with explicit "CONST" markup to accommodate this.
wenzelm@19665
  4467
wenzelm@24800
  4468
* Pure/Isar: unified syntax for new-style specification mechanisms
wenzelm@24800
  4469
(e.g.  'definition', 'abbreviation', or 'inductive' in HOL) admits
wenzelm@24800
  4470
full type inference and dummy patterns ("_").  For example:
wenzelm@24735
  4471
wenzelm@24735
  4472
  definition "K x _ = x"
wenzelm@24735
  4473
wenzelm@24738
  4474
  inductive conj for A B
wenzelm@24738
  4475
  where "A ==> B ==> conj A B"
wenzelm@24738
  4476
wenzelm@21735
  4477
* Pure: command 'print_abbrevs' prints all constant abbreviations of
wenzelm@21735
  4478
the current context.  Print mode "no_abbrevs" prevents inversion of
wenzelm@21735
  4479
abbreviations on output.
wenzelm@21735
  4480
wenzelm@24800
  4481
* Isar/locales: improved parameter handling: use of locales "var" and
wenzelm@24800
  4482
"struct" no longer necessary; - parameter renamings are no longer
wenzelm@24800
  4483
required to be injective.  For example, this allows to define
wenzelm@24800
  4484
endomorphisms as locale endom = homom mult mult h.
ballarin@19783
  4485
ballarin@19931
  4486
* Isar/locales: changed the way locales with predicates are defined.
ballarin@19931
  4487
Instead of accumulating the specification, the imported expression is
wenzelm@22126
  4488
now an interpretation.  INCOMPATIBILITY: different normal form of
wenzelm@22126
  4489
locale expressions.  In particular, in interpretations of locales with
wenzelm@22126
  4490
predicates, goals repesenting already interpreted fragments are not
wenzelm@22126
  4491
removed automatically.  Use methods `intro_locales' and
wenzelm@22126
  4492
`unfold_locales'; see below.
wenzelm@22126
  4493
wenzelm@22126
  4494
* Isar/locales: new methods `intro_locales' and `unfold_locales'
wenzelm@22126
  4495
provide backward reasoning on locales predicates.  The methods are
wenzelm@22126
  4496
aware of interpretations and discharge corresponding goals.
wenzelm@22126
  4497
`intro_locales' is less aggressive then `unfold_locales' and does not
wenzelm@22126
  4498
unfold predicates to assumptions.
ballarin@19931
  4499
ballarin@19931
  4500
* Isar/locales: the order in which locale fragments are accumulated
wenzelm@22126
  4501
has changed.  This enables to override declarations from fragments due
wenzelm@22126
  4502
to interpretations -- for example, unwanted simp rules.
ballarin@19931
  4503
ballarin@23920
  4504
* Isar/locales: interpretation in theories and proof contexts has been
ballarin@23920
  4505
extended.  One may now specify (and prove) equations, which are
ballarin@23920
  4506
unfolded in interpreted theorems.  This is useful for replacing
ballarin@23920
  4507
defined concepts (constants depending on locale parameters) by
ballarin@23920
  4508
concepts already existing in the target context.  Example:
ballarin@23920
  4509
ballarin@23920
  4510
  interpretation partial_order ["op <= :: [int, int] => bool"]
ballarin@23920
  4511
    where "partial_order.less (op <=) (x::int) y = (x < y)"
ballarin@23920
  4512
wenzelm@24800
  4513
Typically, the constant `partial_order.less' is created by a
wenzelm@24800
  4514
definition specification element in the context of locale
wenzelm@24800
  4515
partial_order.
wenzelm@24800
  4516
wenzelm@24859
  4517
* Method "induct": improved internal context management to support
wenzelm@24800
  4518
local fixes and defines on-the-fly. Thus explicit meta-level
wenzelm@24800
  4519
connectives !!  and ==> are rarely required anymore in inductive goals
wenzelm@24800
  4520
(using object-logic connectives for this purpose has been long
wenzelm@24800
  4521
obsolete anyway). Common proof patterns are explained in
wenzelm@25177
  4522
src/HOL/Induct/Common_Patterns.thy, see also
wenzelm@25177
  4523
src/HOL/Isar_examples/Puzzle.thy and src/HOL/Lambda for realistic
wenzelm@25177
  4524
examples.
wenzelm@24606
  4525
wenzelm@24859
  4526
* Method "induct": improved handling of simultaneous goals. Instead of
wenzelm@24606
  4527
introducing object-level conjunction, the statement is now split into
wenzelm@24606
  4528
several conclusions, while the corresponding symbolic cases are nested
wenzelm@24606
  4529
accordingly. INCOMPATIBILITY, proofs need to be structured explicitly,
wenzelm@25177
  4530
see src/HOL/Induct/Common_Patterns.thy, for example.
wenzelm@24606
  4531
wenzelm@24859
  4532
* Method "induct": mutual induction rules are now specified as a list
wenzelm@24800
  4533
of rule sharing the same induction cases. HOL packages usually provide
wenzelm@24606
  4534
foo_bar.inducts for mutually defined items foo and bar (e.g. inductive
wenzelm@24859
  4535
predicates/sets or datatypes). INCOMPATIBILITY, users need to specify
wenzelm@24859
  4536
mutual induction rules differently, i.e. like this:
wenzelm@18506
  4537
wenzelm@18506
  4538
  (induct rule: foo_bar.inducts)
wenzelm@18506
  4539
  (induct set: foo bar)
wenzelm@24859
  4540
  (induct pred: foo bar)
wenzelm@18506
  4541
  (induct type: foo bar)
wenzelm@18506
  4542
wenzelm@18506
  4543
The ML function ProjectRule.projections turns old-style rules into the
wenzelm@18506
  4544
new format.
wenzelm@18506
  4545
wenzelm@24859
  4546
* Method "coinduct": dual of induction, see
wenzelm@18399
  4547
src/HOL/Library/Coinductive_List.thy for various examples.
wenzelm@18399
  4548
wenzelm@24859
  4549
* Method "cases", "induct", "coinduct": the ``(open)'' option is
wenzelm@24859
  4550
considered a legacy feature.
wenzelm@24859
  4551
wenzelm@20919
  4552
* Attribute "symmetric" produces result with standardized schematic
wenzelm@20919
  4553
variables (index 0).  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@20919
  4554
wenzelm@22126
  4555
* Simplifier: by default the simplifier trace only shows top level
wenzelm@22126
  4556
rewrites now. That is, trace_simp_depth_limit is set to 1 by
wenzelm@22126
  4557
default. Thus there is less danger of being flooded by the trace. The
wenzelm@22126
  4558
trace indicates where parts have been suppressed.
nipkow@18674
  4559
  
wenzelm@18536
  4560
* Provers/classical: removed obsolete classical version of elim_format
wenzelm@18536
  4561
attribute; classical elim/dest rules are now treated uniformly when
wenzelm@18536
  4562
manipulating the claset.
wenzelm@18536
  4563
wenzelm@18694
  4564
* Provers/classical: stricter checks to ensure that supplied intro,
wenzelm@18694
  4565
dest and elim rules are well-formed; dest and elim rules must have at
wenzelm@18694
  4566
least one premise.
wenzelm@18694
  4567
wenzelm@18694
  4568
* Provers/classical: attributes dest/elim/intro take an optional
wenzelm@18695
  4569
weight argument for the rule (just as the Pure versions).  Weights are
wenzelm@18696
  4570
ignored by automated tools, but determine the search order of single
wenzelm@18694
  4571
rule steps.
paulson@18557
  4572
wenzelm@18536
  4573
* Syntax: input syntax now supports dummy variable binding "%_. b",
wenzelm@18536
  4574
where the body does not mention the bound variable.  Note that dummy
wenzelm@18536
  4575
patterns implicitly depend on their context of bounds, which makes
wenzelm@18536
  4576
"{_. _}" match any set comprehension as expected.  Potential
wenzelm@18536
  4577
INCOMPATIBILITY -- parse translations need to cope with syntactic
wenzelm@18536
  4578
constant "_idtdummy" in the binding position.
wenzelm@18536
  4579
wenzelm@18536
  4580
* Syntax: removed obsolete syntactic constant "_K" and its associated
wenzelm@18536
  4581
parse translation.  INCOMPATIBILITY -- use dummy abstraction instead,
wenzelm@18536
  4582
for example "A -> B" => "Pi A (%_. B)".
wenzelm@17779
  4583
wenzelm@20582
  4584
* Pure: 'class_deps' command visualizes the subclass relation, using
wenzelm@20582
  4585
the graph browser tool.
wenzelm@20582
  4586
wenzelm@24800
  4587
* Pure: 'print_theory' now suppresses certain internal declarations by
wenzelm@24800
  4588
default; use '!' option for full details.

  4640
INCOMPATIBILITY.  Adaptions may be required in the following cases:
haftmann@25184
  4641
haftmann@25184
  4642
a) User-defined constants using any of the names "plus", "minus",
haftmann@25184
  4643
"times", "less" or "less_eq". The standard syntax translations for
haftmann@25184
  4644
"+", "-" and "*" may go wrong.  INCOMPATIBILITY: use more specific
haftmann@25184
  4645
names.
haftmann@25184
  4646
haftmann@25184
  4647
b) Variables named "plus", "minus", "times", "less", "less_eq"
haftmann@25184
  4648
INCOMPATIBILITY: use more specific names.
haftmann@25184
  4649
haftmann@25184
  4650
c) Permutative equations (e.g. "a + b = b + a")
haftmann@25184
  4651
Since the change of names also changes the order of terms, permutative
haftmann@25184
  4652
rewrite rules may get applied in a different order. Experience shows
haftmann@25184
  4653
that this is rarely the case (only two adaptions in the whole Isabelle
haftmann@25184
  4654
distribution).  INCOMPATIBILITY: rewrite proofs
haftmann@25184
  4655
haftmann@25184
  4656
d) ML code directly refering to constant names
haftmann@25184
  4657
This in general only affects hand-written proof tactics, simprocs and
haftmann@25184
  4658
so on.  INCOMPATIBILITY: grep your sourcecode and replace names.
haftmann@25184
  4659
Consider using @{const_name} antiquotation.
haftmann@24996
  4660
wenzelm@24800

(and other numeric types), using class "sgn".  Two possible defs of
wenzelm@24800
  4665
sgn are given as equational assumptions in the classes sgn_if and
wenzelm@24800
  4666
sgn_div_norm; ordered_idom now also inherits from sgn_if.
wenzelm@24800
  4667
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@24800
  4668
haftmann@25184
  4669
* Locale "partial_order" now unified with class "order" (cf. theory
haftmann@25184
  4670
Orderings), added parameter "less".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  4671
haftmann@25184
  4672
* Renamings in classes "order" and "linorder": facts "refl", "trans" and
haftmann@25184
  4673
"cases" to "order_refl", "order_trans" and "linorder_cases", to avoid
haftmann@25184
  4674
clashes with HOL "refl" and "trans".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  4675
haftmann@25184
  4676
* Classes "order" and "linorder": potential INCOMPATIBILITY due to

in all contexts importing or interpreting the corresponding locales.
haftmann@25184
  4682
Method "order" invokes the reasoner separately; the reasoner
haftmann@25184
  4683
is also integrated with the Simplifier as a solver.  Diagnostic
haftmann@25184

* Added syntactic class "size"; overloaded constant "size" now has

  4811
type "'a::size ==> bool"
haftmann@25184
  4812
haftmann@25184
  4813
* Internal reorganisation of `size' of datatypes: size theorems
haftmann@25184
  4814
"foo.size" are no longer subsumed by "foo.simps" (but are still
haftmann@25184
  4815
simplification rules by default!); theorems "prod.size" now named
haftmann@25184
  4816
"*.size".
haftmann@25184
  4817
haftmann@25184
  4818
* Class "div" now inherits from class "times" rather than "type".
haftmann@25184
  4819
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  4820
haftmann@25184
  4821
* HOL/Finite_Set: "name-space" locales Lattice, Distrib_lattice,
haftmann@25184
  4822
Linorder etc.  have disappeared; operations defined in terms of
haftmann@25184
  4823
fold_set now are named Inf_fin, Sup_fin.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  4824
haftmann@25184
  4825
* HOL/Nat: neq0_conv no longer declared as iff.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  4826
haftmann@25184
  4827
* HOL-Word: New extensive library and type for generic, fixed size
blanchet@47599
  4828
machine words, with arithmetic, bit-wise, shifting and rotating
haftmann@25184
  4829
operations, reflection into int, nat, and bool lists, automation for
haftmann@25184
  4830
linear arithmetic (by automatic reflection into nat or int), including
haftmann@25184
  4831
lemmas on overflow and monotonicity.  Instantiated to all appropriate
haftmann@25184
  4832
arithmetic type classes, supporting automatic simplification of
haftmann@25184
  4833
numerals on all operations.
haftmann@25184
  4834
haftmann@25184
  4835
* Library/Boolean_Algebra: locales for abstract boolean algebras.
haftmann@25184
  4836
haftmann@25184
  4837
* Library/Numeral_Type: numbers as types, e.g. TYPE(32).
haftmann@25184
  4838
haftmann@25184
  4839
* Code generator library theories:
haftmann@25184
  4840
  - Code_Integer represents HOL integers by big integer literals in target
haftmann@25184
  4841
    languages.
haftmann@25184
  4842
  - Code_Char represents HOL characters by character literals in target
haftmann@25184
  4843
    languages.
haftmann@25184
  4844
  - Code_Char_chr like Code_Char, but also offers treatment of character
haftmann@25184
  4845
    codes; includes Code_Integer.
haftmann@25184
  4846
  - Executable_Set allows to generate code for finite sets using lists.
haftmann@25184
  4847
  - Executable_Rat implements rational numbers as triples (sign, enumerator,
haftmann@25184
  4848
    denominator).
haftmann@25184
  4849
  - Executable_Real implements a subset of real numbers, namly those
haftmann@25184
  4850
    representable by rational numbers.
haftmann@25184
  4851
  - Efficient_Nat implements natural numbers by integers, which in general will
haftmann@25184
  4852
    result in higher efficency; pattern matching with 0/Suc is eliminated;
haftmann@25184
  4853
    includes Code_Integer.
haftmann@25184
  4854
  - Code_Index provides an additional datatype index which is mapped to
haftmann@25184
  4855
    target-language built-in integers.
haftmann@26355
  4856
  - Code_Message provides an additional datatype message_string which is isomorphic to
haftmann@25184
  4857
    strings; messages are mapped to target-language strings.
haftmann@25184
  4858
haftmann@25184
  4859
* New package for inductive predicates
haftmann@25184
  4860
haftmann@25184
  4861
  An n-ary predicate p with m parameters z_1, ..., z_m can now be defined via
haftmann@25184
  4862
haftmann@25184
  4863
    inductive
haftmann@25184
  4864
      p :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => T_1 => ... => T_n => bool"
haftmann@25184
  4865
      for z_1 :: U_1 and ... and z_n :: U_m
haftmann@25184
  4866
    where
haftmann@25184
  4867
      rule_1: "... ==> p z_1 ... z_m t_1_1 ... t_1_n"
haftmann@25184
  4868
    | ...
haftmann@25184
  4869
haftmann@25184
  4870
  with full support for type-inference, rather than
haftmann@25184
  4871
haftmann@25184
  4872
    consts s :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => (T_1 * ... * T_n) set"
haftmann@25184
  4873
haftmann@25184
  4874
    abbreviation p :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => T_1 => ... => T_n => bool"
haftmann@25184
  4875
    where "p z_1 ... z_m x_1 ... x_n == (x_1, ..., x_n) : s z_1 ... z_m"
haftmann@25184
  4876
haftmann@25184
  4877
    inductive "s z_1 ... z_m"
haftmann@25184
  4878
    intros
haftmann@25184
  4879
      rule_1: "... ==> (t_1_1, ..., t_1_n) : s z_1 ... z_m"
haftmann@25184
  4880
      ...
haftmann@25184
  4881
haftmann@25184
  4882
  For backward compatibility, there is a wrapper allowing inductive
haftmann@25184
  4883
  sets to be defined with the new package via
haftmann@25184
  4884
haftmann@25184
  4885
    inductive_set
haftmann@25184
  4886
      s :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => (T_1 * ... * T_n) set"
haftmann@25184
  4887
      for z_1 :: U_1 and ... and z_n :: U_m
haftmann@25184
  4888
    where
haftmann@25184
  4889
      rule_1: "... ==> (t_1_1, ..., t_1_n) : s z_1 ... z_m"
haftmann@25184
  4890
    | ...
haftmann@25184

      s :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => (T_1 * ... * T_n) set"

      and p :: "U_1 => ... => U_m => T_1 => ... => T_n => bool"

  4900
    | rule_1: "... ==> p z_1 ... z_m t_1_1 ... t_1_n"
haftmann@25184
  4901
    | ...
haftmann@25184
  4902
haftmann@25184
  4903
  if the additional syntax "p ..." is required.
haftmann@25184
  4904
haftmann@25184
  4905
  Numerous examples can be found in the subdirectories src/HOL/Auth,
haftmann@25184

  src/HOL/Bali, src/HOL/Induct, and src/HOL/MicroJava.
haftmann@25184
  4907
haftmann@25184
  4908
  INCOMPATIBILITIES:
haftmann@25184
  4909
haftmann@25184
  4910
  - Since declaration and definition of inductive sets or predicates
haftmann@25184
  4911
    is no longer separated, abbreviations involving the newly
haftmann@25184
  4912
    introduced sets or predicates must be specified together with the
haftmann@25184
  4913
    introduction rules after the 'where' keyword (see above), rather
haftmann@25184
  4914
    than before the actual inductive definition.
haftmann@25184
  4915
haftmann@25184
  4916
  - The variables in induction and elimination rules are now
haftmann@25184
  4917
    quantified in the order of their occurrence in the introduction
haftmann@25184
  4918
    rules, rather than in alphabetical order. Since this may break
haftmann@25184
  4919
    some proofs, these proofs either have to be repaired, e.g. by
haftmann@25184
  4920
    reordering the variables a_i_1 ... a_i_{k_i} in Isar 'case'
haftmann@25184
  4921
    statements of the form
haftmann@25184
  4922
haftmann@25184
  4923
      case (rule_i a_i_1 ... a_i_{k_i})
haftmann@25184
  4924
haftmann@25184
  4925
    or the old order of quantification has to be restored by explicitly adding
haftmann@25184
  4926
    meta-level quantifiers in the introduction rules, i.e.
haftmann@25184
  4927
haftmann@25184
  4928
      | rule_i: "!!a_i_1 ... a_i_{k_i}. ... ==> p z_1 ... z_m t_i_1 ... t_i_n"
haftmann@25184
  4929
haftmann@25184
  4930
  - The format of the elimination rules is now
haftmann@25184
  4931
haftmann@25184
  4932
      p z_1 ... z_m x_1 ... x_n ==>
haftmann@25184
  4933
        (!!a_1_1 ... a_1_{k_1}. x_1 = t_1_1 ==> ... ==> x_n = t_1_n ==> ... ==> P)
haftmann@25184
  4934
        ==> ... ==> P
haftmann@25184
  4935
haftmann@25184
  4936
    for predicates and
haftmann@25184
  4937
haftmann@25184
  4938
      (x_1, ..., x_n) : s z_1 ... z_m ==>
haftmann@25184
  4939
        (!!a_1_1 ... a_1_{k_1}. x_1 = t_1_1 ==> ... ==> x_n = t_1_n ==> ... ==> P)
haftmann@25184
  4940
        ==> ... ==> P
haftmann@25184
  4941
haftmann@25184
  4942
    for sets rather than
haftmann@25184
  4943
haftmann@25184
  4944
      x : s z_1 ... z_m ==>
haftmann@25184
  4945
        (!!a_1_1 ... a_1_{k_1}. x = (t_1_1, ..., t_1_n) ==> ... ==> P)
haftmann@25184
  4946
        ==> ... ==> P
haftmann@25184
  4947
haftmann@25184
  4948
    This may require terms in goals to be expanded to n-tuples
haftmann@25184
  4949
    (e.g. using case_tac or simplification with the split_paired_all
haftmann@25184
  4950
    rule) before the above elimination rule is applicable.

    sets or predicates are now called "p_1.cases" ... "p_k.cases". The
haftmann@25184
  4954
    list of rules "p_1_..._p_k.elims" is no longer available.
haftmann@25184
  4955
krauss@25198
  4956
* New package "function"/"fun" for general recursive functions,
krauss@25198
  4957
supporting mutual and nested recursion, definitions in local contexts,
krauss@25198
  4958
more general pattern matching and partiality. See HOL/ex/Fundefs.thy
krauss@25198
  4959
for small examples, and the separate tutorial on the function
krauss@25198
  4960
package. The old recdef "package" is still available as before, but
krauss@25198
  4961
users are encouraged to use the new package.
krauss@25198
  4962
krauss@25198
  4963
* Method "lexicographic_order" automatically synthesizes termination
krauss@25198
  4964
relations as lexicographic combinations of size measures. 
krauss@25198
  4965
haftmann@25184
  4966
* Case-expressions allow arbitrary constructor-patterns (including
haftmann@25184
  4967
"_") and take their order into account, like in functional
haftmann@25184
  4968
programming.  Internally, this is translated into nested
haftmann@25184
  4969
case-expressions; missing cases are added and mapped to the predefined
haftmann@25184
  4970
constant "undefined". In complicated cases printing may no longer show
haftmann@25184
  4971
the original input but the internal form. Lambda-abstractions allow
haftmann@25184
  4972
the same form of pattern matching: "% pat1 => e1 | ..." is an
haftmann@25184
  4973
abbreviation for "%x. case x of pat1 => e1 | ..." where x is a new
haftmann@25184
  4974
variable.
haftmann@25184
  4975
haftmann@25184
  4976
* IntDef: The constant "int :: nat => int" has been removed; now "int"
haftmann@25184
  4977
is an abbreviation for "of_nat :: nat => int". The simplification
haftmann@25184
  4978
rules for "of_nat" have been changed to work like "int" did
haftmann@25184
  4979
previously.  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY:
haftmann@25184
  4980
  - "of_nat (Suc m)" simplifies to "1 + of_nat m" instead of "of_nat m + 1"
haftmann@25184
  4981
  - of_nat_diff and of_nat_mult are no longer default simp rules
haftmann@25184
  4982
haftmann@25184
  4983
* Method "algebra" solves polynomial equations over (semi)rings using
haftmann@25184
  4984
Groebner bases. The (semi)ring structure is defined by locales and the
haftmann@25184
  4985
tool setup depends on that generic context. Installing the method for
haftmann@25184
  4986
a specific type involves instantiating the locale and possibly adding
haftmann@25184
  4987
declarations for computation on the coefficients.  The method is
haftmann@25184
  4988
already instantiated for natural numbers and for the axiomatic class
haftmann@25184
  4989
of idoms with numerals.  See also the paper by Chaieb and Wenzel at
haftmann@25184
  4990
CALCULEMUS 2007 for the general principles underlying this
haftmann@25184
  4991
architecture of context-aware proof-tools.
haftmann@25184
  4992
haftmann@25184
  4993
* Method "ferrack" implements quantifier elimination over
haftmann@25184
  4994
special-purpose dense linear orders using locales (analogous to
haftmann@25184
  4995
"algebra"). The method is already installed for class
haftmann@25184
  4996
{ordered_field,recpower,number_ring} which subsumes real, hyperreal,
haftmann@25184
  4997
rat, etc.
haftmann@25184
  4998
haftmann@25184
  4999
* Former constant "List.op @" now named "List.append".  Use ML
haftmann@25184
  5000
antiquotations @{const_name List.append} or @{term " ... @ ... "} to
haftmann@25184
  5001
circumvent possible incompatibilities when working on ML level.
haftmann@25184
  5002
haftmann@25184
  5003
* primrec: missing cases mapped to "undefined" instead of "arbitrary".
haftmann@25184
  5004
haftmann@25184
  5005
* New function listsum :: 'a list => 'a for arbitrary monoids.
haftmann@25184
  5006
Special syntax: "SUM x <- xs. f x" (and latex variants)
haftmann@25184
  5007
haftmann@25184
  5008
* New syntax for Haskell-like list comprehension (input only), eg.
haftmann@25184
  5009
[(x,y). x <- xs, y <- ys, x ~= y], see also src/HOL/List.thy.
haftmann@25184
  5010
haftmann@25184
  5011
* The special syntax for function "filter" has changed from [x :
haftmann@25184
  5012
xs. P] to [x <- xs. P] to avoid an ambiguity caused by list
haftmann@25184
  5013
comprehension syntax, and for uniformity.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  5014
haftmann@25184
  5015
* [a..b] is now defined for arbitrary linear orders.  It used to be
haftmann@25184
  5016
defined on nat only, as an abbreviation for [a..<Suc b]
haftmann@25184
  5017
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  5018
haftmann@25184
  5019
* Renamed lemma "set_take_whileD"  to "set_takeWhileD".
haftmann@25184
  5020
haftmann@25184
  5021
* New functions "sorted" and "sort" in src/HOL/List.thy.
haftmann@25184
  5022
haftmann@25184
  5023
* New lemma collection field_simps (an extension of ring_simps) for
haftmann@25184
  5024
manipulating (in)equations involving division. Multiplies with all
haftmann@25184
  5025
denominators that can be proved to be non-zero (in equations) or
haftmann@25184
  5026
positive/negative (in inequations).
haftmann@25184
  5027
haftmann@25184
  5028
* Lemma collections ring_eq_simps, group_eq_simps and ring_distrib
haftmann@25184
  5029
have been improved and renamed to ring_simps, group_simps and
haftmann@25184
  5030
ring_distribs.  Removed lemmas field_xyz in theory Ring_and_Field
haftmann@25184
  5031
because they were subsumed by lemmas xyz.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@25184
  5032
haftmann@25184
  5033
* Theory Library/Commutative_Ring: switched from recdef to function
haftmann@25184
  5034
package; constants add, mul, pow now curried.  Infix syntax for
haftmann@25184
  5035
algebraic operations.
haftmann@25163
  5036
wenzelm@24800
  5037
* Dropped redundant lemma def_imp_eq in favor of meta_eq_to_obj_eq.
haftmann@22218
  5038
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@22218
  5039
wenzelm@24800
  5040
* Dropped redundant lemma if_def2 in favor of if_bool_eq_conj.
haftmann@22218
  5041
INCOMPATIBILITY.
haftmann@22218
  5042
wenzelm@22126
  5043
* HOL/records: generalised field-update to take a function on the
wenzelm@22126
  5044
field rather than the new value: r(|A := x|) is translated to A_update
wenzelm@22126
  5045
(K x) r The K-combinator that is internally used is called K_record.
schirmer@21226
  5046
INCOMPATIBILITY: Usage of the plain update functions has to be
schirmer@21226
  5047
adapted.
schirmer@21226
  5048
 
wenzelm@24800
  5049
* Class "semiring_0" now contains annihilation axioms x * 0 = 0 and 0
wenzelm@24800
  5050
* x = 0, which are required for a semiring.  Richer structures do not
wenzelm@24800
  5051
inherit from semiring_0 anymore, because this property is a theorem
wenzelm@24800
  5052
there, not an axiom.  INCOMPATIBILITY: In instances of semiring_0,
wenzelm@24800
  5053
there is more to prove, but this is mostly trivial.
wenzelm@24800
  5054
wenzelm@24800
  5055
* Class "recpower" is generalized to arbitrary monoids, not just
wenzelm@24800
  5056
commutative semirings.  INCOMPATIBILITY: may need to incorporate
haftmann@25163
  5057
commutativity or semiring properties additionally.
wenzelm@22126
  5058
wenzelm@22126
  5059
* Constant "List.list_all2" in List.thy now uses authentic syntax.
wenzelm@24800
  5060
INCOMPATIBILITY: translations containing list_all2 may go wrong,
wenzelm@24800
  5061
better use 'abbreviation'.
wenzelm@24800
  5062
wenzelm@24800
  5063
* Renamed constant "List.op mem" to "List.member".  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@24800
  5064
wenzelm@22126
  5065
* Numeral syntax: type 'bin' which was a mere type copy of 'int' has
wenzelm@24800
  5066
been abandoned in favour of plain 'int'.  INCOMPATIBILITY --
wenzelm@22126
  5067
significant changes for setting up numeral syntax for types:
wenzelm@24800
  5068
  - New constants Numeral.pred and Numeral.succ instead
haftmann@20485
  5069
      of former Numeral.bin_pred and Numeral.bin_succ.
haftmann@20485
  5070
  - Use integer operations instead of bin_add, bin_mult and so on.
haftmann@20485
  5071
  - Numeral simplification theorems named Numeral.numeral_simps instead of Bin_simps.
haftmann@20485
  5072
  - ML structure Bin_Simprocs now named Int_Numeral_Base_Simprocs.
haftmann@20485
  5073
wenzelm@25177
  5074
See src/HOL/Integ/IntArith.thy for an example setup.
wenzelm@25177
  5075
wenzelm@25177
  5076
* Command 'normal_form' computes the normal form of a term that may
wenzelm@25177
  5077
contain free variables.  For example ``normal_form "rev [a, b, c]"''
wenzelm@25177
  5078
produces ``[b, c, a]'' (without proof).  This command is suitable for
wenzelm@25177
  5079
heavy-duty computations because the functions are compiled to ML
wenzelm@25177
  5080
first.  Correspondingly, a method "normalization" is provided.  See
wenzelm@25177
  5081
further src/HOL/ex/NormalForm.thy and src/Tools/nbe.ML.
nipkow@19895
  5082
wenzelm@17996
  5083
* Alternative iff syntax "A <-> B" for equality on bool (with priority
wenzelm@17996
  5084
25 like -->); output depends on the "iff" print_mode, the default is
wenzelm@17996
  5085
"A = B" (with priority 50).
wenzelm@17996
  5086
wenzelm@21265
  5087
* Relations less (<) and less_eq (<=) are also available on type bool.
wenzelm@21265
  5088
Modified syntax to disallow nesting without explicit parentheses,
wenzelm@24800
  5089
e.g. "(x < y) < z" or "x < (y < z)", but NOT "x < y < z".  Potential
wenzelm@24800
  5090
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@21265
  5091
nipkow@18674
  5092
* "LEAST x:A. P" expands to "LEAST x. x:A & P" (input only).
nipkow@18674
  5093
krauss@20716
  5094
* Relation composition operator "op O" now has precedence 75 and binds
krauss@20716
  5095
stronger than union and intersection. INCOMPATIBILITY.
krauss@20716
  5096
wenzelm@22126
  5097
* The old set interval syntax "{m..n(}" (and relatives) has been
wenzelm@22126
  5098
removed.  Use "{m..<n}" (and relatives) instead.
nipkow@19377
  5099
wenzelm@17865
  5100
* In the context of the assumption "~(s = t)" the Simplifier rewrites
wenzelm@24800
  5101
"t = s" to False (by simproc "neq").  INCOMPATIBILITY, consider using
wenzelm@24800
  5102
``declare [[simproc del: neq]]''.
wenzelm@24800
  5103
wenzelm@24800
  5104
* Simplifier: "m dvd n" where m and n are numbers is evaluated to
wenzelm@24800
  5105
True/False.
wenzelm@24800
  5106
wenzelm@24800
  5107
* Theorem Cons_eq_map_conv no longer declared as "simp".
nipkow@19211
  5108
ballarin@19279
  5109
* Theorem setsum_mult renamed to setsum_right_distrib.
ballarin@19279
  5110
nipkow@19211
  5111
* Prefer ex1I over ex_ex1I in single-step reasoning, e.g. by the
wenzelm@22126
  5112
``rule'' method.
wenzelm@22126
  5113
wenzelm@24800
  5114
* Reimplemented methods "sat" and "satx", with several improvements:
wenzelm@24800
  5115
goals no longer need to be stated as "<prems> ==> False", equivalences
wenzelm@24800
  5116
(i.e. "=" on type bool) are handled, variable names of the form
wenzelm@24800
  5117
"lit_<n>" are no longer reserved, significant speedup.
wenzelm@24800
  5118
wenzelm@24800
  5119
* Methods "sat" and "satx" can now replay MiniSat proof traces.
wenzelm@22126
  5120
zChaff is still supported as well.
wenzelm@22126
  5121
wenzelm@22126
  5122
* 'inductive' and 'datatype': provide projections of mutual rules,
wenzelm@22126
  5123
bundled as foo_bar.inducts;
wenzelm@22126
  5124
wenzelm@22126
  5125
* Library: moved theories Parity, GCD, Binomial, Infinite_Set to
wenzelm@22126
  5126
Library.
wenzelm@21256
  5127
wenzelm@21256
  5128
* Library: moved theory Accessible_Part to main HOL.
wenzelm@19572
  5129
wenzelm@18446
  5130
* Library: added theory Coinductive_List of potentially infinite lists
wenzelm@18446
  5131
as greatest fixed-point.
wenzelm@18399
  5132
wenzelm@19254
  5133
* Library: added theory AssocList which implements (finite) maps as
schirmer@19252
  5134
association lists.
webertj@17809
  5135
wenzelm@24800
  5136
* Method "evaluation" solves goals (i.e. a boolean expression)
wenzelm@24800
  5137
efficiently by compiling it to ML.  The goal is "proved" (via an
wenzelm@24800
  5138
oracle) if it evaluates to True.
wenzelm@20807
  5139
wenzelm@20807
  5140
* Linear arithmetic now splits certain operators (e.g. min, max, abs)
wenzelm@24800
  5141
also when invoked by the simplifier.  This results in the Simplifier
wenzelm@24800
  5142
being more powerful on arithmetic goals.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@24800
  5143
Configuration option fast_arith_split_limit=0 recovers the old
wenzelm@24800
  5144
behavior.
webertj@20217
  5145
wenzelm@22126
  5146
* Support for hex (0x20) and binary (0b1001) numerals.
wenzelm@19254
  5147
wenzelm@20807
  5148
* New method: reify eqs (t), where eqs are equations for an
wenzelm@20807
  5149
interpretation I :: 'a list => 'b => 'c and t::'c is an optional
wenzelm@20807
  5150
parameter, computes a term s::'b and a list xs::'a list and proves the
wenzelm@20807
  5151
theorem I xs s = t. This is also known as reification or quoting. The
wenzelm@20807
  5152
resulting theorem is applied to the subgoal to substitute t with I xs
wenzelm@20807
  5153
s.  If t is omitted, the subgoal itself is reified.
wenzelm@20807
  5154
wenzelm@20807
  5155
* New method: reflection corr_thm eqs (t). The parameters eqs and (t)
wenzelm@20807
  5156
are as explained above. corr_thm is a theorem for I vs (f t) = I vs t,
wenzelm@20807
  5157
where f is supposed to be a computable function (in the sense of code
wenzelm@20807
  5158
generattion). The method uses reify to compute s and xs as above then
wenzelm@20807
  5159
applies corr_thm and uses normalization by evaluation to "prove" f s =
wenzelm@20807
  5160
r and finally gets the theorem t = r, which is again applied to the
wenzelm@25177
  5161
subgoal. An Example is available in src/HOL/ex/ReflectionEx.thy.
wenzelm@25177
  5162
wenzelm@25177
  5163
* Reflection: Automatic reification now handels binding, an example is
wenzelm@25177
  5164
available in src/HOL/ex/ReflectionEx.thy
wenzelm@20807
  5165
wenzelm@25397
  5166
* HOL-Statespace: ``State Spaces: The Locale Way'' introduces a
schirmer@25409
  5167
command 'statespace' that is similar to 'record', but introduces an
wenzelm@25397
  5168
abstract specification based on the locale infrastructure instead of
wenzelm@25397
  5169
HOL types.  This leads to extra flexibility in composing state spaces,
wenzelm@25397
  5170
in particular multiple inheritance and renaming of components.

*** HOL-Complex ***
wenzelm@19653
  5174
huffman@22971
  5175
* Hyperreal: Functions root and sqrt are now defined on negative real
huffman@22971
  5176
inputs so that root n (- x) = - root n x and sqrt (- x) = - sqrt x.
huffman@22971
  5177
Nonnegativity side conditions have been removed from many lemmas, so
huffman@22971
  5178
that more subgoals may now be solved by simplification; potential
huffman@22971
  5179
INCOMPATIBILITY.
huffman@22971
  5180
wenzelm@24800
  5181
* Real: new type classes formalize real normed vector spaces and
huffman@21791
  5182
algebras, using new overloaded constants scaleR :: real => 'a => 'a
huffman@21791
  5183
and norm :: 'a => real.
huffman@21791
  5184
wenzelm@24800
  5185
* Real: constant of_real :: real => 'a::real_algebra_1 injects from
wenzelm@24800
  5186
reals into other types. The overloaded constant Reals :: 'a set is now
wenzelm@24800
  5187
defined as range of_real; potential INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@24800
  5188
wenzelm@24800
  5189
* Real: proper support for ML code generation, including 'quickcheck'.
nipkow@23013
  5190
Reals are implemented as arbitrary precision rationals.
nipkow@23013
  5191
wenzelm@22126
  5192
* Hyperreal: Several constants that previously worked only for the
wenzelm@22126
  5193
reals have been generalized, so they now work over arbitrary vector
wenzelm@22126
  5194
spaces. Type annotations may need to be added in some cases; potential
wenzelm@22126
  5195
INCOMPATIBILITY.

*** ML ***
wenzelm@17878
  5255
wenzelm@24643
  5256
* ML basics: just one true type int, which coincides with IntInf.int
wenzelm@24643
  5257
(even on SML/NJ).
wenzelm@24643
  5258
wenzelm@22138
  5259
* ML within Isar: antiquotations allow to embed statically-checked
wenzelm@22138
  5260
formal entities in the source, referring to the context available at
wenzelm@22138
  5261
compile-time.  For example:

ML {* @{sort "{zero,one}"} *}
wenzelm@22138

  5285
The same works for sources being ``used'' within an Isar context.
wenzelm@22151
  5286
wenzelm@22152
  5287
* ML in Isar: improved error reporting; extra verbosity with
wenzelm@24706
  5288
ML_Context.trace enabled.
wenzelm@22152
  5289
wenzelm@19032
  5290
* Pure/General/table.ML: the join operations now works via exceptions
wenzelm@24706
  5291
DUP/SAME instead of type option. This is simpler in simple cases, and
wenzelm@19081
  5292
admits slightly more efficient complex applications.
wenzelm@18446
  5293
wenzelm@24800
  5294
* Pure: 'advanced' translation functions (parse_translation etc.) now
wenzelm@24800
  5295
use Context.generic instead of just theory.
wenzelm@24800
  5296
wenzelm@18642
  5297
* Pure: datatype Context.generic joins theory/Proof.context and
wenzelm@18644
  5298
provides some facilities for code that works in either kind of
wenzelm@18642
  5299
context, notably GenericDataFun for uniform theory and proof data.
wenzelm@18642
  5300
wenzelm@18737
  5301
* Pure: simplified internal attribute type, which is now always
wenzelm@24706
  5302
Context.generic * thm -> Context.generic * thm. Global (theory) vs.
wenzelm@24706
  5303
local (Proof.context) attributes have been discontinued, while
wenzelm@24706
  5304
minimizing code duplication. Thm.rule_attribute and
wenzelm@24706
  5305
Thm.declaration_attribute build canonical attributes; see also structure
wenzelm@24706
  5306
Context for further operations on Context.generic, notably
wenzelm@24706
  5307
GenericDataFun. INCOMPATIBILITY, need to adapt attribute type
wenzelm@19006
  5308
declarations and definitions.
wenzelm@19006
  5309
wenzelm@24800
  5310
* Context data interfaces (Theory/Proof/GenericDataFun): removed
wenzelm@24800
  5311
name/print, uninitialized data defaults to ad-hoc copy of empty value,
wenzelm@24800
  5312
init only required for impure data. INCOMPATIBILITY: empty really need
wenzelm@24800
  5313
to be empty (no dependencies on theory content!)
wenzelm@24800
  5314
wenzelm@19508
  5315
* Pure/kernel: consts certification ignores sort constraints given in
wenzelm@24800
  5316
signature declarations. (This information is not relevant to the
wenzelm@24800
  5317
logic, but only for type inference.) SIGNIFICANT INTERNAL CHANGE,
wenzelm@24800
  5318
potential INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@19508
  5319
wenzelm@19508
  5320
* Pure: axiomatic type classes are now purely definitional, with
wenzelm@19508
  5321
explicit proofs of class axioms and super class relations performed
wenzelm@24706
  5322
internally. See Pure/axclass.ML for the main internal interfaces --
wenzelm@36856
  5323
notably AxClass.define_class supercedes AxClass.add_axclass, and
wenzelm@24706
  5324
AxClass.axiomatize_class/classrel/arity supersede
wenzelm@19508
  5325
Sign.add_classes/classrel/arities.
wenzelm@19508
  5326
wenzelm@19006
  5327
* Pure/Isar: Args/Attrib parsers operate on Context.generic --
wenzelm@19006
  5328
global/local versions on theory vs. Proof.context have been
wenzelm@19006
  5329
discontinued; Attrib.syntax and Method.syntax have been adapted
wenzelm@19006
  5330
accordingly.  INCOMPATIBILITY, need to adapt parser expressions for
wenzelm@19006
  5331
attributes, methods, etc.
wenzelm@18642
  5332
wenzelm@18446
  5333
* Pure: several functions of signature "... -> theory -> theory * ..."
wenzelm@18446
  5334
have been reoriented to "... -> theory -> ... * theory" in order to
wenzelm@18446
  5335
allow natural usage in combination with the ||>, ||>>, |-> and
wenzelm@18446
  5336
fold_map combinators.
haftmann@18051
  5337
wenzelm@21647
  5338
* Pure: official theorem names (closed derivations) and additional
wenzelm@21647
  5339
comments (tags) are now strictly separate.  Name hints -- which are
wenzelm@21647
  5340
maintained as tags -- may be attached any time without affecting the
wenzelm@21647
  5341
derivation.
wenzelm@21647
  5342
wenzelm@18020
  5343
* Pure: primitive rule lift_rule now takes goal cterm instead of an
wenzelm@18145
  5344
actual goal state (thm).  Use Thm.lift_rule (Thm.cprem_of st i) to
wenzelm@18020
  5345
achieve the old behaviour.
wenzelm@18020
  5346
wenzelm@18020
  5347
* Pure: the "Goal" constant is now called "prop", supporting a
wenzelm@18020
  5348
slightly more general idea of ``protecting'' meta-level rule
wenzelm@18020
  5349
statements.
wenzelm@18020
  5350
wenzelm@20040
  5351
* Pure: Logic.(un)varify only works in a global context, which is now
wenzelm@20040
  5352
enforced instead of silently assumed.  INCOMPATIBILITY, may use
wenzelm@20040
  5353
Logic.legacy_(un)varify as temporary workaround.
wenzelm@20040
  5354
wenzelm@20090
  5355
* Pure: structure Name provides scalable operations for generating
wenzelm@20090
  5356
internal variable names, notably Name.variants etc.  This replaces
wenzelm@20090
  5357
some popular functions from term.ML:
wenzelm@20090
  5358
wenzelm@20090
  5359
  Term.variant		->  Name.variant
wenzelm@24800
  5360
  Term.variantlist	->  Name.variant_list
wenzelm@20090
  5361
  Term.invent_names	->  Name.invent_list
wenzelm@20090
  5362
wenzelm@20090
  5363
Note that low-level renaming rarely occurs in new code -- operations
wenzelm@20090
  5364
from structure Variable are used instead (see below).
wenzelm@20090
  5365
wenzelm@20040
  5366
* Pure: structure Variable provides fundamental operations for proper
wenzelm@20040
  5367
treatment of fixed/schematic variables in a context.  For example,
wenzelm@20040
  5368
Variable.import introduces fixes for schematics of given facts and
wenzelm@20040
  5369
Variable.export reverses the effect (up to renaming) -- this replaces
wenzelm@20040
  5370
various freeze_thaw operations.
wenzelm@20040
  5371
wenzelm@18567
  5372
* Pure: structure Goal provides simple interfaces for
wenzelm@17981
  5373
init/conclude/finish and tactical prove operations (replacing former
wenzelm@20040
  5374
Tactic.prove).  Goal.prove is the canonical way to prove results
wenzelm@20040
  5375
within a given context; Goal.prove_global is a degraded version for
wenzelm@20040
  5376
theory level goals, including a global Drule.standard.  Note that
wenzelm@20040
  5377
OldGoals.prove_goalw_cterm has long been obsolete, since it is
wenzelm@20040
  5378
ill-behaved in a local proof context (e.g. with local fixes/assumes or
wenzelm@20040
  5379
in a locale context).
wenzelm@17981
  5380
wenzelm@24706
  5381
* Pure/Syntax: generic interfaces for parsing (Syntax.parse_term etc.)
wenzelm@24706
  5382
and type checking (Syntax.check_term etc.), with common combinations
wenzelm@24706
  5383
(Syntax.read_term etc.). These supersede former Sign.read_term etc.
wenzelm@24706
  5384
which are considered legacy and await removal.
wenzelm@24706
  5385
wenzelm@24920
  5386
* Pure/Syntax: generic interfaces for type unchecking
wenzelm@24920
  5387
(Syntax.uncheck_terms etc.) and unparsing (Syntax.unparse_term etc.),
wenzelm@24920
  5388
with common combinations (Syntax.pretty_term, Syntax.string_of_term
wenzelm@24920
  5389
etc.).  Former Sign.pretty_term, Sign.string_of_term etc. are still
wenzelm@24924
  5390
available for convenience, but refer to the very same operations using
wenzelm@24924
  5391
a mere theory instead of a full context.
wenzelm@24920
  5392
wenzelm@18815
  5393
* Isar: simplified treatment of user-level errors, using exception
wenzelm@18687
  5394
ERROR of string uniformly.  Function error now merely raises ERROR,
wenzelm@18686
  5395
without any side effect on output channels.  The Isar toplevel takes
wenzelm@18686
  5396
care of proper display of ERROR exceptions.  ML code may use plain
wenzelm@18686
  5397
handle/can/try; cat_error may be used to concatenate errors like this:
wenzelm@18686
  5398
wenzelm@18686
  5399
  ... handle ERROR msg => cat_error msg "..."
wenzelm@18686
  5400
wenzelm@18686
  5401
Toplevel ML code (run directly or through the Isar toplevel) may be
wenzelm@18687
  5402
embedded into the Isar toplevel with exception display/debug like
wenzelm@18687
  5403
this:
wenzelm@18686
  5404
wenzelm@18686
  5405
  Isar.toplevel (fn () => ...)
wenzelm@18686
  5406
wenzelm@18686
  5407
INCOMPATIBILITY, removed special transform_error facilities, removed
wenzelm@18686
  5408
obsolete variants of user-level exceptions (ERROR_MESSAGE,
wenzelm@18686
  5409
Context.PROOF, ProofContext.CONTEXT, Proof.STATE, ProofHistory.FAIL)
wenzelm@18686
  5410
-- use plain ERROR instead.
wenzelm@18686
  5411
wenzelm@18815
  5412
* Isar: theory setup now has type (theory -> theory), instead of a
wenzelm@18722
  5413
list.  INCOMPATIBILITY, may use #> to compose setup functions.
wenzelm@18722
  5414
wenzelm@24706
  5415
* Isar: ML toplevel pretty printer for type Proof.context, subject to
wenzelm@24706
  5416
ProofContext.debug/verbose flags.
wenzelm@18815
  5417
wenzelm@18815
  5418
* Isar: Toplevel.theory_to_proof admits transactions that modify the
wenzelm@18815
  5419
theory before entering a proof state.  Transactions now always see a
wenzelm@18815
  5420
quasi-functional intermediate checkpoint, both in interactive and
wenzelm@18590
  5421
batch mode.
wenzelm@18567
  5422
wenzelm@24867
  5423
* Isar: simplified interfaces for outer syntax.  Renamed
wenzelm@24867
  5424
OuterSyntax.add_keywords to OuterSyntax.keywords.  Removed
wenzelm@24867
  5425
OuterSyntax.add_parsers -- this functionality is now included in
wenzelm@24867
  5426
OuterSyntax.command etc.  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@24867
  5427
wenzelm@17878
  5428
* Simplifier: the simpset of a running simplification process now
wenzelm@17878
  5429
contains a proof context (cf. Simplifier.the_context), which is the
wenzelm@17878
  5430
very context that the initial simpset has been retrieved from (by
wenzelm@17890
  5431
simpset_of/local_simpset_of).  Consequently, all plug-in components
wenzelm@17878
  5432
(solver, looper etc.) may depend on arbitrary proof data.
wenzelm@17878
  5433
wenzelm@17878
  5434
* Simplifier.inherit_context inherits the proof context (plus the
wenzelm@17878
  5435
local bounds) of the current simplification process; any simproc
wenzelm@17878
  5436
etc. that calls the Simplifier recursively should do this!  Removed
wenzelm@17878
  5437
former Simplifier.inherit_bounds, which is already included here --
wenzelm@17890
  5438
INCOMPATIBILITY.  Tools based on low-level rewriting may even have to
wenzelm@17890
  5439
specify an explicit context using Simplifier.context/theory_context.
wenzelm@17878
  5440
wenzelm@17878
  5441
* Simplifier/Classical Reasoner: more abstract interfaces
wenzelm@17878
  5442
change_simpset/claset for modifying the simpset/claset reference of a
wenzelm@17878
  5443
theory; raw versions simpset/claset_ref etc. have been discontinued --
wenzelm@17878
  5444
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@17878
  5445
wenzelm@18540
  5446
* Provers: more generic wrt. syntax of object-logics, avoid hardwired
wenzelm@18540
  5447
"Trueprop" etc.

usedir option -M or the "max-threads" setting in Proof General. A
wenzelm@24800

speedup factor of 1.5--3.5 can be expected on a 4-core machine, and up
wenzelm@24800
  5468
to 6 on a 8-core machine.  User-code needs to observe certain

* Theory headers: the new header syntax for Isar theories is
nipkow@15130
  5480
nipkow@15130
  5481
  theory <name>
wenzelm@16234
  5482
  imports <theory1> ... <theoryN>
wenzelm@16234
  5483
  uses <file1> ... <fileM>
nipkow@15130
  5484
  begin
nipkow@15130
  5485
wenzelm@16234
  5486
where the 'uses' part is optional.  The previous syntax
wenzelm@16234
  5487
wenzelm@16234
  5488
  theory <name> = <theory1> + ... + <theoryN>:
wenzelm@16234
  5489
wenzelm@16717
  5490
will disappear in the next release.  Use isatool fixheaders to convert
wenzelm@16717
  5491
existing theory files.  Note that there is no change in ancient
wenzelm@17371
  5492
non-Isar theories now, but these will disappear soon.
nipkow@15130

* Theory loader: parent theories can now also be referred to via
wenzelm@16234
  5495
relative and absolute paths.
wenzelm@16234
  5496
wenzelm@17408
  5497
* Command 'find_theorems' searches for a list of criteria instead of a
wenzelm@17408
  5498
list of constants. Known criteria are: intro, elim, dest, name:string,
wenzelm@17408
  5499
simp:term, and any term. Criteria can be preceded by '-' to select
wenzelm@17408
  5500
theorems that do not match. Intro, elim, dest select theorems that
wenzelm@17408
  5501
match the current goal, name:s selects theorems whose fully qualified
wenzelm@17408
  5502
name contain s, and simp:term selects all simplification rules whose
wenzelm@17408
  5503
lhs match term.  Any other term is interpreted as pattern and selects
wenzelm@17408
  5504
all theorems matching the pattern. Available in ProofGeneral under
wenzelm@17408
  5505
'ProofGeneral -> Find Theorems' or C-c C-f.  Example:
wenzelm@16234
  5506
wenzelm@17275
  5507
  C-c C-f (100) "(_::nat) + _ + _" intro -name: "HOL."
wenzelm@16234
  5508
wenzelm@16234
  5509
prints the last 100 theorems matching the pattern "(_::nat) + _ + _",
wenzelm@16234
  5510
matching the current goal as introduction rule and not having "HOL."
wenzelm@16234
  5511
in their name (i.e. not being defined in theory HOL).
wenzelm@16234
  5512
wenzelm@17408
  5513
* Command 'thms_containing' has been discontinued in favour of
wenzelm@17408
  5514
'find_theorems'; INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@17408
  5515
wenzelm@17385
  5516
* Communication with Proof General is now 8bit clean, which means that
wenzelm@17385
  5517
Unicode text in UTF-8 encoding may be used within theory texts (both
wenzelm@17408
  5518
formal and informal parts).  Cf. option -U of the Isabelle Proof
wenzelm@17538
  5519
General interface.  Here are some simple examples (cf. src/HOL/ex):
wenzelm@17538

wenzelm@17385
  5523
wenzelm@17425
  5524
* Improved efficiency of the Simplifier and, to a lesser degree, the
wenzelm@17425
  5525
Classical Reasoner.  Typical big applications run around 2 times
wenzelm@17425
  5526
faster.

*** Document preparation ***
wenzelm@16234
  5530
wenzelm@16234
  5531
* Commands 'display_drafts' and 'print_drafts' perform simple output
wenzelm@16234
  5532
of raw sources.  Only those symbols that do not require additional
wenzelm@16234
  5533
LaTeX packages (depending on comments in isabellesym.sty) are
wenzelm@16234
  5534
displayed properly, everything else is left verbatim.  isatool display
wenzelm@16234
  5535
and isatool print are used as front ends (these are subject to the
wenzelm@16234
  5536
DVI/PDF_VIEWER and PRINT_COMMAND settings, respectively).
wenzelm@16234
  5537
wenzelm@17047
  5538
* Command tags control specific markup of certain regions of text,
wenzelm@17047
  5539
notably folding and hiding.  Predefined tags include "theory" (for
wenzelm@17047
  5540
theory begin and end), "proof" for proof commands, and "ML" for
wenzelm@17047
  5541
commands involving ML code; the additional tags "visible" and
wenzelm@17047
  5542
"invisible" are unused by default.  Users may give explicit tag
wenzelm@17047
  5543
specifications in the text, e.g. ''by %invisible (auto)''.  The
wenzelm@17047
  5544
interpretation of tags is determined by the LaTeX job during document
wenzelm@17047
  5545
preparation: see option -V of isatool usedir, or options -n and -t of
wenzelm@17047
  5546
isatool document, or even the LaTeX macros \isakeeptag, \isafoldtag,
wenzelm@17047
  5547
\isadroptag.
wenzelm@17047
  5548
wenzelm@17047
  5549
Several document versions may be produced at the same time via isatool
wenzelm@17047
  5550
usedir (the generated index.html will link all of them).  Typical
wenzelm@17047
  5551
specifications include ''-V document=theory,proof,ML'' to present
wenzelm@17047
  5552
theory/proof/ML parts faithfully, ''-V outline=/proof,/ML'' to fold
wenzelm@17047
  5553
proof and ML commands, and ''-V mutilated=-theory,-proof,-ML'' to omit
wenzelm@17047
  5554
these parts without any formal replacement text.  The Isabelle site
wenzelm@17047
  5555
default settings produce ''document'' and ''outline'' versions as
wenzelm@17047
  5556
specified above.
wenzelm@16234
  5557
haftmann@17402
  5558
* Several new antiquotations:
wenzelm@16234
  5559
wenzelm@16234
  5560
  @{term_type term} prints a term with its type annotated;
wenzelm@16234
  5561
wenzelm@16234
  5562
  @{typeof term} prints the type of a term;
wenzelm@16234
  5563
wenzelm@16234
  5564
  @{const const} is the same as @{term const}, but checks that the
wenzelm@16234
  5565
  argument is a known logical constant;
wenzelm@16234
  5566
wenzelm@16234
  5567
  @{term_style style term} and @{thm_style style thm} print a term or
wenzelm@16234
  5568
  theorem applying a "style" to it
wenzelm@16234
  5569
wenzelm@17117
  5570
  @{ML text}
wenzelm@17117
  5571
wenzelm@16234
  5572
Predefined styles are 'lhs' and 'rhs' printing the lhs/rhs of
wenzelm@16234
  5573
definitions, equations, inequations etc., 'concl' printing only the
schirmer@17393
  5574
conclusion of a meta-logical statement theorem, and 'prem1' .. 'prem19'
wenzelm@16234
  5575
to print the specified premise.  TermStyle.add_style provides an ML
wenzelm@16234
  5576
interface for introducing further styles.  See also the "LaTeX Sugar"
wenzelm@17117
  5577
document practical applications.  The ML antiquotation prints
wenzelm@17117
  5578
type-checked ML expressions verbatim.
wenzelm@16234
  5579
wenzelm@17259
  5580
* Markup commands 'chapter', 'section', 'subsection', 'subsubsection',
wenzelm@17259
  5581
and 'text' support optional locale specification '(in loc)', which
wenzelm@17269
  5582
specifies the default context for interpreting antiquotations.  For
wenzelm@17269
  5583
example: 'text (in lattice) {* @{thm inf_assoc}*}'.
wenzelm@17259
  5584
wenzelm@17259
  5585
* Option 'locale=NAME' of antiquotations specifies an alternative
wenzelm@17259
  5586
context interpreting the subsequent argument.  For example: @{thm
wenzelm@17269
  5587
[locale=lattice] inf_assoc}.
wenzelm@17259
  5588
wenzelm@17097
  5589
* Proper output of proof terms (@{prf ...} and @{full_prf ...}) within
wenzelm@17097
  5590
a proof context.
wenzelm@17097
  5591
wenzelm@17097
  5592
* Proper output of antiquotations for theory commands involving a
wenzelm@17097
  5593
proof context (such as 'locale' or 'theorem (in loc) ...').
wenzelm@17097
  5594
wenzelm@17193
  5595
* Delimiters of outer tokens (string etc.) now produce separate LaTeX
wenzelm@17193
  5596
macros (\isachardoublequoteopen, isachardoublequoteclose etc.).
wenzelm@17193
  5597
wenzelm@17193
  5598
* isatool usedir: new option -C (default true) controls whether option
wenzelm@17193
  5599
-D should include a copy of the original document directory; -C false
wenzelm@17193
  5600
prevents unwanted effects such as copying of administrative CVS data.

  5603
*** Pure ***
wenzelm@16234
  5604
wenzelm@16234
  5605
* Considerably improved version of 'constdefs' command.  Now performs
wenzelm@16234
  5606
automatic type-inference of declared constants; additional support for
wenzelm@16234
  5607
local structure declarations (cf. locales and HOL records), see also
wenzelm@16234
  5608
isar-ref manual.  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY: need to observe strictly
wenzelm@16234
  5609
sequential dependencies of definitions within a single 'constdefs'
wenzelm@16234
  5610
section; moreover, the declared name needs to be an identifier.  If
wenzelm@16234
  5611
all fails, consider to fall back on 'consts' and 'defs' separately.
wenzelm@16234
  5612
wenzelm@16234
  5613
* Improved indexed syntax and implicit structures.  First of all,
wenzelm@16234
  5614
indexed syntax provides a notational device for subscripted
wenzelm@16234
  5615
application, using the new syntax \<^bsub>term\<^esub> for arbitrary
wenzelm@16234
  5616
expressions.  Secondly, in a local context with structure
wenzelm@16234
  5617
declarations, number indexes \<^sub>n or the empty index (default
wenzelm@16234
  5618
number 1) refer to a certain fixed variable implicitly; option
wenzelm@16234
  5619
show_structs controls printing of implicit structures.  Typical
wenzelm@16234
  5620
applications of these concepts involve record types and locales.
wenzelm@16234
  5621
wenzelm@16234
  5622
* New command 'no_syntax' removes grammar declarations (and
wenzelm@16234
  5623
translations) resulting from the given syntax specification, which is
wenzelm@16234
  5624
interpreted in the same manner as for the 'syntax' command.
wenzelm@16234
  5625
wenzelm@16234
  5626
* 'Advanced' translation functions (parse_translation etc.) may depend
wenzelm@16234
  5627
on the signature of the theory context being presently used for
wenzelm@16234
  5628
parsing/printing, see also isar-ref manual.
wenzelm@16234
  5629
wenzelm@16856
  5630
* Improved 'oracle' command provides a type-safe interface to turn an
wenzelm@16856
  5631
ML expression of type theory -> T -> term into a primitive rule of
wenzelm@16856
  5632
type theory -> T -> thm (i.e. the functionality of Thm.invoke_oracle
wenzelm@16856
  5633
is already included here); see also FOL/ex/IffExample.thy;
wenzelm@16856
  5634
INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@16856
  5635
wenzelm@17275
  5636
* axclass: name space prefix for class "c" is now "c_class" (was "c"
wenzelm@17275
  5637
before); "cI" is no longer bound, use "c.intro" instead.
wenzelm@17275
  5638
INCOMPATIBILITY.  This change avoids clashes of fact bindings for
wenzelm@17275
  5639
axclasses vs. locales.
wenzelm@17275
  5640
wenzelm@16234
  5641
* Improved internal renaming of symbolic identifiers -- attach primes
wenzelm@16234
  5642
instead of base 26 numbers.
wenzelm@16234
  5643
wenzelm@16234
  5644
* New flag show_question_marks controls printing of leading question
wenzelm@16234
  5645
marks in schematic variable names.
wenzelm@16234
  5646
wenzelm@16234
  5647
* In schematic variable names, *any* symbol following \<^isub> or
wenzelm@16234
  5648
\<^isup> is now treated as part of the base name.  For example, the
wenzelm@16234
  5649
following works without printing of awkward ".0" indexes:
wenzelm@16234
  5650
wenzelm@16234
  5651
  lemma "x\<^isub>1 = x\<^isub>2 ==> x\<^isub>2 = x\<^isub>1"
wenzelm@16234
  5652
    by simp
wenzelm@16234
  5653
wenzelm@16234
  5654
* Inner syntax includes (*(*nested*) comments*).
wenzelm@16234
  5655
wenzelm@17548
  5656
* Pretty printer now supports unbreakable blocks, specified in mixfix
wenzelm@16234
  5657
annotations as "(00...)".
wenzelm@16234
  5658
wenzelm@16234
  5659
* Clear separation of logical types and nonterminals, where the latter
wenzelm@16234
  5660
may only occur in 'syntax' specifications or type abbreviations.
wenzelm@16234
  5661
Before that distinction was only partially implemented via type class
wenzelm@16234
  5662
"logic" vs. "{}".  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY in rare cases of improper
wenzelm@16234
  5663
use of 'types'/'consts' instead of 'nonterminals'/'syntax'.  Some very
wenzelm@16234
  5664
exotic syntax specifications may require further adaption
wenzelm@17691
  5665
(e.g. Cube/Cube.thy).
wenzelm@16234
  5666
wenzelm@16234
  5667
* Removed obsolete type class "logic", use the top sort {} instead.
wenzelm@16234
  5668
Note that non-logical types should be declared as 'nonterminals'
wenzelm@16234
  5669
rather than 'types'.  INCOMPATIBILITY for new object-logic
wenzelm@16234
  5670
specifications.
wenzelm@16234
  5671
ballarin@17095
  5672
* Attributes 'induct' and 'cases': type or set names may now be
ballarin@17095
  5673
locally fixed variables as well.
ballarin@17095
  5674
wenzelm@16234
  5675
* Simplifier: can now control the depth to which conditional rewriting
wenzelm@16234
  5676
is traced via the PG menu Isabelle -> Settings -> Trace Simp Depth
wenzelm@16234
  5677
Limit.
wenzelm@16234
  5678
wenzelm@16234
  5679
* Simplifier: simplification procedures may now take the current
wenzelm@16234
  5680
simpset into account (cf. Simplifier.simproc(_i) / mk_simproc
wenzelm@16234
  5681
interface), which is very useful for calling the Simplifier
wenzelm@16234
  5682
recursively.  Minor INCOMPATIBILITY: the 'prems' argument of simprocs
wenzelm@16234
  5683
is gone -- use prems_of_ss on the simpset instead.  Moreover, the
wenzelm@16234
  5684
low-level mk_simproc no longer applies Logic.varify internally, to
wenzelm@16234
  5685
allow for use in a context of fixed variables.
wenzelm@16234
  5686
wenzelm@16234
  5687
* thin_tac now works even if the assumption being deleted contains !!
wenzelm@16234
  5688
or ==>.  More generally, erule now works even if the major premise of
wenzelm@16234
  5689
the elimination rule contains !! or ==>.
wenzelm@16234
  5690
wenzelm@17597
  5691
* Method 'rules' has been renamed to 'iprover'. INCOMPATIBILITY.
nipkow@17590
  5692
wenzelm@16234
  5693
* Reorganized bootstrapping of the Pure theories; CPure is now derived
wenzelm@16234
  5694
from Pure, which contains all common declarations already.  Both
wenzelm@16234
  5695
theories are defined via plain Isabelle/Isar .thy files.
wenzelm@16234
  5696
INCOMPATIBILITY: elements of CPure (such as the CPure.intro /
wenzelm@16234
  5697
CPure.elim / CPure.dest attributes) now appear in the Pure name space;
wenzelm@16234
  5698
use isatool fixcpure to adapt your theory and ML sources.
wenzelm@16234
  5699
wenzelm@16234
  5700
* New syntax 'name(i-j, i-, i, ...)' for referring to specific
wenzelm@16234
  5701
selections of theorems in named facts via index ranges.
wenzelm@16234
  5702
wenzelm@17097
  5703
* 'print_theorems': in theory mode, really print the difference
wenzelm@17097
  5704
wrt. the last state (works for interactive theory development only),
wenzelm@17097
  5705
in proof mode print all local facts (cf. 'print_facts');
wenzelm@17097
  5706
wenzelm@17397
  5707
* 'hide': option '(open)' hides only base names.
wenzelm@17397
  5708
wenzelm@17275
  5709
* More efficient treatment of intermediate checkpoints in interactive
wenzelm@17275
  5710
theory development.
wenzelm@17275
  5711
berghofe@17663
  5712
* Code generator is now invoked via code_module (incremental code
wenzelm@17664
  5713
generation) and code_library (modular code generation, ML structures
wenzelm@17664
  5714
for each theory).  INCOMPATIBILITY: new keywords 'file' and 'contains'
wenzelm@17664
  5715
must be quoted when used as identifiers.
wenzelm@17664
  5716
wenzelm@17664
  5717
* New 'value' command for reading, evaluating and printing terms using
wenzelm@17664
  5718
the code generator.  INCOMPATIBILITY: command keyword 'value' must be
wenzelm@17664
  5719
quoted when used as identifier.

*** Locales ***
ballarin@17095
  5723
wenzelm@17385
  5724
* New commands for the interpretation of locale expressions in
wenzelm@17385
  5725
theories (1), locales (2) and proof contexts (3).  These generate
wenzelm@17385
  5726
proof obligations from the expression specification.  After the
wenzelm@17385
  5727
obligations have been discharged, theorems of the expression are added
wenzelm@17385
  5728
to the theory, target locale or proof context.  The synopsis of the
wenzelm@17385
  5729
commands is a follows:
wenzelm@17385
  5730
ballarin@17095
  5731
  (1) interpretation expr inst
ballarin@17095
  5732
  (2) interpretation target < expr
ballarin@17095
  5733
  (3) interpret expr inst
wenzelm@17385
  5734
ballarin@17095
  5735
Interpretation in theories and proof contexts require a parameter
ballarin@17095
  5736
instantiation of terms from the current context.  This is applied to
wenzelm@17385
  5737
specifications and theorems of the interpreted expression.
wenzelm@17385
  5738
Interpretation in locales only permits parameter renaming through the
wenzelm@17385
  5739
locale expression.  Interpretation is smart in that interpretations
wenzelm@17385
  5740
that are active already do not occur in proof obligations, neither are
wenzelm@17385
  5741
instantiated theorems stored in duplicate.  Use 'print_interps' to
wenzelm@17385
  5742
inspect active interpretations of a particular locale.  For details,
ballarin@17436
  5743
see the Isar Reference manual.  Examples can be found in
ballarin@17436
  5744
HOL/Finite_Set.thy and HOL/Algebra/UnivPoly.thy.
wenzelm@16234

wenzelm@16234

INCOMPATIBILITY: former 'instantiate' has been withdrawn, use

* Proper static binding of attribute syntax -- i.e. types / terms /
wenzelm@16234
  5758
facts mentioned as arguments are always those of the locale definition
wenzelm@16234
  5759
context, independently of the context of later invocations.  Moreover,
wenzelm@16234
  5760
locale operations (renaming and type / term instantiation) are applied
wenzelm@16234
  5761
to attribute arguments as expected.
wenzelm@16234
  5762
wenzelm@16234
  5763
INCOMPATIBILITY of the ML interface: always pass Attrib.src instead of
wenzelm@16234
  5764
actual attributes; rare situations may require Attrib.attribute to
wenzelm@16234
  5765
embed those attributes into Attrib.src that lack concrete syntax.
wenzelm@16234
  5766
Attribute implementations need to cooperate properly with the static
wenzelm@16234
  5767
binding mechanism.  Basic parsers Args.XXX_typ/term/prop and
wenzelm@16234
  5768
Attrib.XXX_thm etc. already do the right thing without further
wenzelm@16234
  5769
intervention.  Only unusual applications -- such as "where" or "of"
wenzelm@16234
  5770
(cf. src/Pure/Isar/attrib.ML), which process arguments depending both
wenzelm@16234
  5771
on the context and the facts involved -- may have to assign parsed
wenzelm@16234
  5772
values to argument tokens explicitly.
wenzelm@16234
  5773
wenzelm@16234
  5774

  5845
finite sets: "setsum (%x. e) A", which used to be "\<Sum>x:A. e", is
wenzelm@17371

  "\<Sum>x | P. e"      for     "setsum (%x. e) {x. P}"
wenzelm@16234
  5852
  "\<Sum>x = a..b. e"   for     "setsum (%x. e) {a..b}"

  "\<Sum>x = a..<b. e"  for     "setsum (%x. e) {a..<b}"
wenzelm@16234

wenzelm@16234
  5855
wenzelm@16234
  5856
The latter form "\<Sum>x < k. e" used to be based on a separate
wenzelm@16234
  5857
function "Summation", which has been discontinued.
wenzelm@16234

  5861
(insert F x)'.
wenzelm@16234
  5862
wenzelm@16234
  5863
* The 'refute' command has been extended to support a much larger
wenzelm@16234
  5864
fragment of HOL, including axiomatic type classes, constdefs and
wenzelm@16234
  5865
typedefs, inductive datatypes and recursion.
wenzelm@16234

webertj@17619
  5870
wenzelm@16234
  5871
* Datatype induction via method 'induct' now preserves the name of the
wenzelm@16234
  5872
induction variable. For example, when proving P(xs::'a list) by
wenzelm@16234
  5873
induction on xs, the induction step is now P(xs) ==> P(a#xs) rather
wenzelm@16234
  5874
than P(list) ==> P(a#list) as previously.  Potential INCOMPATIBILITY

  5875
in unstructured proof scripts.
wenzelm@16234
  5876
wenzelm@16234
  5877
* Reworked implementation of records.  Improved scalability for
wenzelm@16234
  5878
records with many fields, avoiding performance problems for type
wenzelm@16234
  5879
inference. Records are no longer composed of nested field types, but
wenzelm@16234
  5880
of nested extension types. Therefore the record type only grows linear
wenzelm@16234
  5881
in the number of extensions and not in the number of fields.  The
wenzelm@16234
  5882
top-level (users) view on records is preserved.  Potential
wenzelm@16234
  5883
INCOMPATIBILITY only in strange cases, where the theory depends on the
wenzelm@16234
  5884
old record representation. The type generated for a record is called
wenzelm@16234
  5885
<record_name>_ext_type.
wenzelm@16234
  5886
wenzelm@16234

wenzelm@16234
  5888
proofs triggered by a record definition or a simproc (if
wenzelm@16234
  5889
quick_and_dirty is enabled).  Definitions of large records can take
wenzelm@16234
  5890
quite long.
wenzelm@16234
  5891
wenzelm@16234
  5892
New simproc record_upd_simproc for simplification of multiple record
wenzelm@16234
  5893
updates enabled by default.  Moreover, trivial updates are also
wenzelm@16234
  5894
removed: r(|x := x r|) = r.  INCOMPATIBILITY: old proofs break
wenzelm@16234
  5895
occasionally, since simplification is more powerful by default.

  5896
wenzelm@17275

wenzelm@16234
  5900
* Simplifier: automatically reasons about transitivity chains
wenzelm@16234
  5901
involving "trancl" (r^+) and "rtrancl" (r^*) by setting up tactics
wenzelm@16234
  5902
provided by Provers/trancl.ML as additional solvers.  INCOMPATIBILITY:
wenzelm@16234
  5903
old proofs break occasionally as simplification may now solve more
wenzelm@16234
  5904
goals than previously.
wenzelm@16234
  5905
wenzelm@16234
  5906
* Simplifier: converts x <= y into x = y if assumption y <= x is
wenzelm@16234
  5907
present.  Works for all partial orders (class "order"), in particular
wenzelm@16234
  5908
numbers and sets.  For linear orders (e.g. numbers) it treats ~ x < y
wenzelm@16234
  5909
just like y <= x.
wenzelm@16234
  5910
wenzelm@16234
  5911
* Simplifier: new simproc for "let x = a in f x".  If a is a free or
wenzelm@16234
  5912
bound variable or a constant then the let is unfolded.  Otherwise
wenzelm@16234
  5913
first a is simplified to b, and then f b is simplified to g. If
wenzelm@16234
  5914
possible we abstract b from g arriving at "let x = b in h x",
wenzelm@16234
  5915
otherwise we unfold the let and arrive at g.  The simproc can be
wenzelm@16234
  5916
enabled/disabled by the reference use_let_simproc.  Potential
wenzelm@16234

supported.  Patterns may include the constants cpair, spair, up, sinl,

  6171
but the proof obligation additionally includes an admissibility

* Pure/library.ML: natural list combinators fold, fold_rev, and
haftmann@16869
  6248
fold_map support linear functional transformations and nesting.  For
wenzelm@16860
  6249
example:
wenzelm@16860
  6250
wenzelm@16860
  6251
  fold f [x1, ..., xN] y =
wenzelm@16860
  6252
    y |> f x1 |> ... |> f xN
wenzelm@16860
  6253
wenzelm@16860
  6254
  (fold o fold) f [xs1, ..., xsN] y =
wenzelm@16860
  6255
    y |> fold f xs1 |> ... |> fold f xsN
wenzelm@16860
  6256
wenzelm@16860
  6257
  fold f [x1, ..., xN] =
wenzelm@16860
  6258
    f x1 #> ... #> f xN
wenzelm@16860
  6259
wenzelm@16860
  6260
  (fold o fold) f [xs1, ..., xsN] =
wenzelm@16860
  6261
    fold f xs1 #> ... #> fold f xsN
wenzelm@16860
  6262
wenzelm@17408
  6263
* Pure/library.ML: the following selectors on type 'a option are
wenzelm@17408
  6264
available:
wenzelm@17408
  6265
wenzelm@17408
  6266
  the:               'a option -> 'a  (*partial*)
wenzelm@17408
  6267
  these:             'a option -> 'a  where 'a = 'b list
haftmann@17402
  6268
  the_default: 'a -> 'a option -> 'a
haftmann@17402
  6269
  the_list:          'a option -> 'a list
haftmann@17402
  6270
wenzelm@17408
  6271
* Pure/General: structure AList (cf. Pure/General/alist.ML) provides
wenzelm@17408
  6272
basic operations for association lists, following natural argument
haftmann@17564
  6273
order; moreover the explicit equality predicate passed here avoids
haftmann@17495
  6274
potentially expensive polymorphic runtime equality checks.
haftmann@17495
  6275
The old functions may be expressed as follows:
wenzelm@17408
  6276
wenzelm@17408
  6277
  assoc = uncurry (AList.lookup (op =))
wenzelm@17408
  6278
  assocs = these oo AList.lookup (op =)
wenzelm@17408
  6279
  overwrite = uncurry (AList.update (op =)) o swap
wenzelm@17408
  6280
haftmann@17564
  6281
* Pure/General: structure AList (cf. Pure/General/alist.ML) provides
haftmann@17564
  6282
haftmann@17564
  6283
  val make: ('a -> 'b) -> 'a list -> ('a * 'b) list
haftmann@17564
  6284
  val find: ('a * 'b -> bool) -> ('c * 'b) list -> 'a -> 'c list
haftmann@17564
  6285
haftmann@17564
  6286
replacing make_keylist and keyfilter (occassionally used)
haftmann@17564
  6287
Naive rewrites:
haftmann@17564
  6288
haftmann@17564
  6289
  make_keylist = AList.make
haftmann@17564
  6290
  keyfilter = AList.find (op =)
haftmann@17564
  6291
haftmann@17564
  6292
* eq_fst and eq_snd now take explicit equality parameter, thus
haftmann@17564
  6293
  avoiding eqtypes. Naive rewrites:
haftmann@17564
  6294
haftmann@17564
  6295
    eq_fst = eq_fst (op =)
haftmann@17564
  6296
    eq_snd = eq_snd (op =)
haftmann@17564
  6297
haftmann@17564
  6298
* Removed deprecated apl and apr (rarely used).
haftmann@17564
  6299
  Naive rewrites:
haftmann@17564
  6300
haftmann@17564
  6301
    apl (n, op) =>>= curry op n
haftmann@17564
  6302
    apr (op, m) =>>= fn n => op (n, m)
haftmann@17564
  6303
wenzelm@17408
  6304
* Pure/General: structure OrdList (cf. Pure/General/ord_list.ML)
wenzelm@17408
  6305
provides a reasonably efficient light-weight implementation of sets as
wenzelm@17408
  6306
lists.
wenzelm@17408
  6307
wenzelm@17408
  6308
* Pure/General: generic tables (cf. Pure/General/table.ML) provide a
wenzelm@17408
  6309
few new operations; existing lookup and update are now curried to
wenzelm@17408
  6310
follow natural argument order (for use with fold etc.);
wenzelm@17408
  6311
INCOMPATIBILITY, use (uncurry Symtab.lookup) etc. as last resort.
wenzelm@17408
  6312
wenzelm@17408
  6313
* Pure/General: output via the Isabelle channels of
wenzelm@17408
  6314
writeln/warning/error etc. is now passed through Output.output, with a
wenzelm@17408
  6315
hook for arbitrary transformations depending on the print_mode
wenzelm@17408
  6316
(cf. Output.add_mode -- the first active mode that provides a output
wenzelm@17408
  6317
function wins).  Already formatted output may be embedded into further
wenzelm@17408
  6318
text via Output.raw; the result of Pretty.string_of/str_of and derived
wenzelm@17408
  6319
functions (string_of_term/cterm/thm etc.) is already marked raw to
wenzelm@17408
  6320
accommodate easy composition of diagnostic messages etc.  Programmers
wenzelm@17408
  6321
rarely need to care about Output.output or Output.raw at all, with
wenzelm@17408
  6322
some notable exceptions: Output.output is required when bypassing the
wenzelm@17408
  6323
standard channels (writeln etc.), or in token translations to produce
wenzelm@17408
  6324
properly formatted results; Output.raw is required when capturing
wenzelm@17408
  6325
already output material that will eventually be presented to the user
wenzelm@17408
  6326
a second time.  For the default print mode, both Output.output and
wenzelm@17408
  6327
Output.raw have no effect.
wenzelm@17408
  6328
wenzelm@17408
  6329
* Pure/General: Output.time_accumulator NAME creates an operator ('a
wenzelm@17408
  6330
-> 'b) -> 'a -> 'b to measure runtime and count invocations; the
wenzelm@17408
  6331
cumulative results are displayed at the end of a batch session.
wenzelm@17408
  6332
wenzelm@17408
  6333
* Pure/General: File.sysify_path and File.quote_sysify path have been
wenzelm@17408
  6334
replaced by File.platform_path and File.shell_path (with appropriate
wenzelm@17408
  6335
hooks).  This provides a clean interface for unusual systems where the
wenzelm@17408
  6336
internal and external process view of file names are different.
wenzelm@17408
  6337
wenzelm@16689
  6338
* Pure: more efficient orders for basic syntactic entities: added
wenzelm@16689
  6339
fast_string_ord, fast_indexname_ord, fast_term_ord; changed sort_ord
wenzelm@16689
  6340
and typ_ord to use fast_string_ord and fast_indexname_ord (term_ord is
wenzelm@16689
  6341
NOT affected); structures Symtab, Vartab, Typtab, Termtab use the fast
wenzelm@16689
  6342
orders now -- potential INCOMPATIBILITY for code that depends on a
wenzelm@16689
  6343
particular order for Symtab.keys, Symtab.dest, etc. (consider using
wenzelm@16689
  6344
Library.sort_strings on result).
wenzelm@16689
  6345
wenzelm@17408
  6346
* Pure/term.ML: combinators fold_atyps, fold_aterms, fold_term_types,
wenzelm@17408
  6347
fold_types traverse types/terms from left to right, observing natural
wenzelm@36856
  6348
argument order.  Supercedes previous foldl_XXX versions, add_frees,
wenzelm@17408
  6349
add_vars etc. have been adapted as well: INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@17408
  6350
wenzelm@16151
  6351
* Pure: name spaces have been refined, with significant changes of the
wenzelm@16234
  6352
internal interfaces -- INCOMPATIBILITY.  Renamed cond_extern(_table)
wenzelm@36856
  6353
to extern(_table).  The plain name entry path is superceded by a
wenzelm@16234
  6354
general 'naming' context, which also includes the 'policy' to produce
wenzelm@16234
  6355
a fully qualified name and external accesses of a fully qualified
wenzelm@36856
  6356
name; NameSpace.extend is superceded by context dependent
wenzelm@16234
  6357
Sign.declare_name.  Several theory and proof context operations modify
wenzelm@16234
  6358
the naming context.  Especially note Theory.restore_naming and
wenzelm@16234
  6359
ProofContext.restore_naming to get back to a sane state; note that
wenzelm@16234
  6360
Theory.add_path is no longer sufficient to recover from
wenzelm@16234
  6361
Theory.absolute_path in particular.
wenzelm@16234
  6362
wenzelm@16234
  6363
* Pure: new flags short_names (default false) and unique_names
wenzelm@16234
  6364
(default true) for controlling output of qualified names.  If
wenzelm@16234
  6365
short_names is set, names are printed unqualified.  If unique_names is
wenzelm@16234
  6366
reset, the name prefix is reduced to the minimum required to achieve
wenzelm@16234
  6367
the original result when interning again, even if there is an overlap
wenzelm@16234
  6368
with earlier declarations.
wenzelm@16151
  6369
wenzelm@16456
  6370
* Pure/TheoryDataFun: change of the argument structure; 'prep_ext' is
wenzelm@16456
  6371
now 'extend', and 'merge' gets an additional Pretty.pp argument
wenzelm@16456
  6372
(useful for printing error messages).  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@16456
  6373
wenzelm@16456
  6374
* Pure: major reorganization of the theory context.  Type Sign.sg and
wenzelm@16456
  6375
Theory.theory are now identified, referring to the universal
wenzelm@16456
  6376
Context.theory (see Pure/context.ML).  Actual signature and theory
wenzelm@16456
  6377
content is managed as theory data.  The old code and interfaces were
wenzelm@16456
  6378
spread over many files and structures; the new arrangement introduces
wenzelm@16456
  6379
considerable INCOMPATIBILITY to gain more clarity:
wenzelm@16456
  6380
wenzelm@16456
  6381
  Context -- theory management operations (name, identity, inclusion,
wenzelm@16456
  6382
    parents, ancestors, merge, etc.), plus generic theory data;
wenzelm@16456
  6383
wenzelm@16456
  6384
  Sign -- logical signature and syntax operations (declaring consts,
wenzelm@16456
  6385
    types, etc.), plus certify/read for common entities;
wenzelm@16456
  6386
wenzelm@16456
  6387
  Theory -- logical theory operations (stating axioms, definitions,
wenzelm@16456
  6388
    oracles), plus a copy of logical signature operations (consts,
wenzelm@16456
  6389
    types, etc.); also a few basic management operations (Theory.copy,
wenzelm@16456
  6390
    Theory.merge, etc.)
wenzelm@16456
  6391
wenzelm@16456
  6392
The most basic sign_of operations (Theory.sign_of, Thm.sign_of_thm
wenzelm@16456
  6393
etc.) as well as the sign field in Thm.rep_thm etc. have been retained
wenzelm@16456
  6394
for convenience -- they merely return the theory.
wenzelm@16456
  6395
wenzelm@36856
  6396
* Pure: type Type.tsig is superceded by theory in most interfaces.
wenzelm@17193
  6397
wenzelm@16547
  6398
* Pure: the Isar proof context type is already defined early in Pure
wenzelm@16547
  6399
as Context.proof (note that ProofContext.context and Proof.context are
wenzelm@16547
  6400
aliases, where the latter is the preferred name).  This enables other
wenzelm@16547
  6401
Isabelle components to refer to that type even before Isar is present.
wenzelm@16547
  6402
wenzelm@16373
  6403
* Pure/sign/theory: discontinued named name spaces (i.e. classK,
wenzelm@16373
  6404
typeK, constK, axiomK, oracleK), but provide explicit operations for
wenzelm@16373
  6405
any of these kinds.  For example, Sign.intern typeK is now
wenzelm@16373
  6406
Sign.intern_type, Theory.hide_space Sign.typeK is now
wenzelm@16373
  6407
Theory.hide_types.  Also note that former
wenzelm@16373
  6408
Theory.hide_classes/types/consts are now
wenzelm@16373
  6409
Theory.hide_classes_i/types_i/consts_i, while the non '_i' versions
wenzelm@16373
  6410
internalize their arguments!  INCOMPATIBILITY.
wenzelm@16373
  6411
wenzelm@16506
  6412
* Pure: get_thm interface (of PureThy and ProofContext) expects
wenzelm@16506
  6413
datatype thmref (with constructors Name and NameSelection) instead of
wenzelm@16506
  6414
plain string -- INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@16506
  6415
wenzelm@16151
  6416
* Pure: cases produced by proof methods specify options, where NONE
wenzelm@16234
  6417
means to remove case bindings -- INCOMPATIBILITY in
wenzelm@16234
  6418
(RAW_)METHOD_CASES.
wenzelm@16151
  6419
wenzelm@16373
  6420
* Pure: the following operations retrieve axioms or theorems from a
wenzelm@16373
  6421
theory node or theory hierarchy, respectively:
wenzelm@16373
  6422
wenzelm@16373
  6423
  Theory.axioms_of: theory -> (string * term) list
wenzelm@16373
  6424
  Theory.all_axioms_of: theory -> (string * term) list
wenzelm@16373
  6425
  PureThy.thms_of: theory -> (string * thm) list
wenzelm@16373
  6426
  PureThy.all_thms_of: theory -> (string * thm) list
wenzelm@16373
  6427
wenzelm@16718
  6428
* Pure: print_tac now outputs the goal through the trace channel.
wenzelm@16718
  6429
wenzelm@17408
  6430
* Isar toplevel: improved diagnostics, mostly for Poly/ML only.
wenzelm@17408
  6431
Reference Toplevel.debug (default false) controls detailed printing
wenzelm@17408
  6432
and tracing of low-level exceptions; Toplevel.profiling (default 0)
wenzelm@17408
  6433
controls execution profiling -- set to 1 for time and 2 for space
wenzelm@17408
  6434
(both increase the runtime).
wenzelm@17408
  6435
wenzelm@17408
  6436
* Isar session: The initial use of ROOT.ML is now always timed,
wenzelm@17408
  6437
i.e. the log will show the actual process times, in contrast to the
wenzelm@17408
  6438
elapsed wall-clock time that the outer shell wrapper produces.
wenzelm@17408
  6439
wenzelm@17408
  6440
* Simplifier: improved handling of bound variables (nameless
wenzelm@16997
  6441
representation, avoid allocating new strings).  Simprocs that invoke
wenzelm@16997
  6442
the Simplifier recursively should use Simplifier.inherit_bounds to
wenzelm@17720
  6443
avoid local name clashes.  Failure to do so produces warnings
wenzelm@17720
  6444
"Simplifier: renamed bound variable ..."; set Simplifier.debug_bounds
wenzelm@17720
  6445
for further details.
wenzelm@16234
  6446
wenzelm@17166
  6447
* ML functions legacy_bindings and use_legacy_bindings produce ML fact
wenzelm@17166
  6448
bindings for all theorems stored within a given theory; this may help
wenzelm@17166
  6449
in porting non-Isar theories to Isar ones, while keeping ML proof
wenzelm@17166
  6450
scripts for the time being.
wenzelm@17166
  6451
wenzelm@17457
  6452
* ML operator HTML.with_charset specifies the charset begin used for
wenzelm@17457
  6453
generated HTML files.  For example:
wenzelm@17457
  6454
wenzelm@17457
  6455
  HTML.with_charset "utf-8" use_thy "Hebrew";
wenzelm@17538
  6456
  HTML.with_charset "utf-8" use_thy "Chinese";

*** System ***
wenzelm@16234
  6460
wenzelm@16234
  6461
* Allow symlinks to all proper Isabelle executables (Isabelle,
wenzelm@16234
  6462
isabelle, isatool etc.).
wenzelm@16234
  6463
wenzelm@16234
  6464
* ISABELLE_DOC_FORMAT setting specifies preferred document format (for
wenzelm@16234
  6465
isatool doc, isatool mkdir, display_drafts etc.).
wenzelm@16234
  6466
wenzelm@16234
  6467
* isatool usedir: option -f allows specification of the ML file to be
wenzelm@16234
  6468
used by Isabelle; default is ROOT.ML.
wenzelm@16234
  6469
wenzelm@16251
  6470
* New isatool version outputs the version identifier of the Isabelle
wenzelm@16251
  6471
distribution being used.
wenzelm@16251
  6472
wenzelm@16251

  6475

ballarin@14398
  6484
* Provers/order.ML:  new efficient reasoner for partial and linear orders.
ballarin@14398
  6485
  Replaces linorder.ML.
ballarin@14398
  6486
wenzelm@14606
  6487
* Pure: Greek letters (except small lambda, \<lambda>), as well as Gothic
wenzelm@14606
  6488
  (\<aa>...\<zz>\<AA>...\<ZZ>), calligraphic (\<A>...\<Z>), and Euler
skalberg@14173
  6489
  (\<a>...\<z>), are now considered normal letters, and can therefore
skalberg@14173
  6490
  be used anywhere where an ASCII letter (a...zA...Z) has until
skalberg@14173
  6491
  now. COMPATIBILITY: This obviously changes the parsing of some
skalberg@14173
  6492
  terms, especially where a symbol has been used as a binder, say
skalberg@14173
  6493
  '\<Pi>x. ...', which is now a type error since \<Pi>x will be parsed
skalberg@14173
  6494
  as an identifier.  Fix it by inserting a space around former
skalberg@14173
  6495
  symbols.  Call 'isatool fixgreek' to try to fix parsing errors in
skalberg@14173
  6496
  existing theory and ML files.
skalberg@14171
  6497
paulson@14237
  6498
* Pure: Macintosh and Windows line-breaks are now allowed in theory files.
paulson@14237
  6499
wenzelm@14731
  6500
* Pure: single letter sub/superscripts (\<^isub> and \<^isup>) are now
wenzelm@14731
  6501
  allowed in identifiers. Similar to Greek letters \<^isub> is now considered
wenzelm@14731
  6502
  a normal (but invisible) letter. For multiple letter subscripts repeat
wenzelm@14731
  6503
  \<^isub> like this: x\<^isub>1\<^isub>2.
kleing@14233
  6504
kleing@14333
  6505
* Pure: There are now sub-/superscripts that can span more than one
kleing@14333
  6506
  character. Text between \<^bsub> and \<^esub> is set in subscript in
wenzelm@14606
  6507
  ProofGeneral and LaTeX, text between \<^bsup> and \<^esup> in
wenzelm@14606
  6508

kleing@14333

* Pure: Control-symbols of the form \<^raw:...> will literally print the
wenzelm@14606

paulson@14237
  6514
* Pure: Using new Isar command "finalconsts" (or the ML functions
paulson@14237
  6515
  Theory.add_finals or Theory.add_finals_i) it is now possible to
paulson@14237
  6516
  declare constants "final", which prevents their being given a definition
paulson@14237
  6517
  later.  It is useful for constants whose behaviour is fixed axiomatically
skalberg@14224
  6518
  rather than definitionally, such as the meta-logic connectives.
skalberg@14224
  6519
wenzelm@14606

* Presentation: generated HTML now uses a CSS style sheet to make layout
wenzelm@14731
  6524
  (somewhat) independent of content. It is copied from lib/html/isabelle.css.
kleing@14547

* Tactic emulation methods rule_tac, erule_tac, drule_tac, frule_tac,
ballarin@14508
  6531
  cut_tac, subgoal_tac and thin_tac:
ballarin@14175
  6532
  - Now understand static (Isar) contexts.  As a consequence, users of Isar
ballarin@14175
  6533
    locales are no longer forced to write Isar proof scripts.
ballarin@14175
  6534
    For details see Isar Reference Manual, paragraph 4.3.2: Further tactic
ballarin@14175
  6535
    emulations.
ballarin@14175
  6536
  - INCOMPATIBILITY: names of variables to be instantiated may no
ballarin@14211
  6537
    longer be enclosed in quotes.  Instead, precede variable name with `?'.
ballarin@14211
  6538
    This is consistent with the instantiation attribute "where".
ballarin@14211
  6539
ballarin@14257
  6540
* Attributes "where" and "of":
ballarin@14285
  6541
  - Now take type variables of instantiated theorem into account when reading
ballarin@14285
  6542
    the instantiation string.  This fixes a bug that caused instantiated
ballarin@14285
  6543
    theorems to have too special types in some circumstances.
ballarin@14285
  6544
  - "where" permits explicit instantiations of type variables.
ballarin@14257
  6545
wenzelm@14556
  6546
* Calculation commands "moreover" and "also" no longer interfere with
wenzelm@14556
  6547
  current facts ("this"), admitting arbitrary combinations with "then"
wenzelm@14556
  6548
  and derived forms.
kleing@14283
  6549
ballarin@14211
  6550
* Locales:
ballarin@14211
  6551
  - Goal statements involving the context element "includes" no longer
ballarin@14211
  6552
    generate theorems with internal delta predicates (those ending on
ballarin@14211
  6553
    "_axioms") in the premise.
ballarin@14211
  6554
    Resolve particular premise with <locale>.intro to obtain old form.
ballarin@14211
  6555
  - Fixed bug in type inference ("unify_frozen") that prevented mix of target
ballarin@14211
  6556
    specification and "includes" elements in goal statement.
ballarin@14254
  6557
  - Rule sets <locale>.intro and <locale>.axioms no longer declared as
ballarin@14254
  6558
    [intro?] and [elim?] (respectively) by default.
ballarin@14508
  6559
  - Experimental command for instantiation of locales in proof contexts:
ballarin@14551
  6560
        instantiate <label>[<attrs>]: <loc>
ballarin@14508
  6561
    Instantiates locale <loc> and adds all its theorems to the current context
ballarin@14551
  6562
    taking into account their attributes.  Label and attrs are optional
ballarin@14551
  6563
    modifiers, like in theorem declarations.  If present, names of
ballarin@14551
  6564
    instantiated theorems are qualified with <label>, and the attributes
ballarin@14551
  6565
    <attrs> are applied after any attributes these theorems might have already.
ballarin@14551
  6566
      If the locale has assumptions, a chained fact of the form
ballarin@14508
  6567
    "<loc> t1 ... tn" is expected from which instantiations of the parameters
ballarin@14551
  6568
    are derived.  The command does not support old-style locales declared
ballarin@14551
  6569
    with "locale (open)".
ballarin@14551
  6570
      A few (very simple) examples can be found in FOL/ex/LocaleInst.thy.

  6579
  the HOL4 system with about 2500 theorems. It is imported by
kleing@14624
  6580
  replaying proof terms produced by HOL4 in Isabelle. The HOL4 image
kleing@14624

* Simplifier:
ballarin@14398
  6585
  - Much improved handling of linear and partial orders.
ballarin@14398
  6586
    Reasoners for linear and partial orders are set up for type classes
ballarin@14398
  6587
    "linorder" and "order" respectively, and are added to the default simpset
ballarin@14398
  6588
    as solvers.  This means that the simplifier can build transitivity chains
ballarin@14398
  6589
    to solve goals from the assumptions.
ballarin@14398
  6590
  - INCOMPATIBILITY: old proofs break occasionally.  Typically, applications
ballarin@14398
  6591
    of blast or auto after simplification become unnecessary because the goal
ballarin@14398
  6592
    is solved by simplification already.
ballarin@14398

    all proved in axiomatic type classes for semirings, rings and fields.
paulson@14389
  6596
paulson@14389
  6597
* Numerics:
paulson@14389
  6598
  - Numeric types (nat, int, and in HOL-Complex rat, real, complex, etc.) are
wenzelm@14731
  6599
    now formalized using the Ring_and_Field theory mentioned above.
paulson@14389
  6600
  - INCOMPATIBILITY: simplification and arithmetic behaves somewhat differently
paulson@14389
  6601
    than before, because now they are set up once in a generic manner.
wenzelm@14731
  6602
  - INCOMPATIBILITY: many type-specific arithmetic laws have gone.
paulson@14480
  6603
    Look for the general versions in Ring_and_Field (and Power if they concern
paulson@14480
  6604
    exponentiation).
paulson@14389
  6605
paulson@14401
  6606
* Type "rat" of the rational numbers is now available in HOL-Complex.
paulson@14389
  6607
schirmer@14255
  6608
* Records:
schirmer@14255
  6609
  - Record types are now by default printed with their type abbreviation
schirmer@14255
  6610
    instead of the list of all field types. This can be configured via
schirmer@14255
  6611
    the reference "print_record_type_abbr".
wenzelm@14731
  6612
  - Simproc "record_upd_simproc" for simplification of multiple updates added
schirmer@14255
  6613
    (not enabled by default).
schirmer@14427
  6614
  - Simproc "record_ex_sel_eq_simproc" to simplify EX x. sel r = x resp.
schirmer@14427
  6615
    EX x. x = sel r to True (not enabled by default).
schirmer@14255
  6616
  - Tactic "record_split_simp_tac" to split and simplify records added.
wenzelm@14731
  6617
kleing@14136
  6618
* 'specification' command added, allowing for definition by
skalberg@14224
  6619

skalberg@14224
  6620
  introduces the new constants axiomatically.

  matrix theory to linear programming.
kleing@14136
  6631
nipkow@14380
  6632
* Unions and Intersections:
nipkow@15119
  6633
  The latex output syntax of UN and INT has been changed
nipkow@15119
  6634
  from "\Union x \in A. B" to "\Union_{x \in A} B"
nipkow@15119
  6635
  i.e. the index formulae has become a subscript.
nipkow@15119
  6636
  Similarly for "\Union x. B", and for \Inter instead of \Union.
nipkow@14380
  6637
kleing@14418
  6638
* Unions and Intersections over Intervals:
wenzelm@14731
  6639
  There is new short syntax "UN i<=n. A" for "UN i:{0..n}. A". There is
wenzelm@14731
  6640
  also an x-symbol version with subscripts "\<Union>\<^bsub>i <= n\<^esub>. A"
kleing@14418
  6641
  like in normal math, and corresponding versions for < and for intersection.
kleing@14418
  6642
nipkow@15677
  6643
* HOL/List: Ordering "lexico" is renamed "lenlex" and the standard
nipkow@15677
  6644
  lexicographic dictonary ordering has been added as "lexord".
nipkow@15677
  6645
paulson@14401
  6646
* ML: the legacy theory structures Int and List have been removed. They had
paulson@14401
  6647
  conflicted with ML Basis Library structures having the same names.
nipkow@14380
  6648
webertj@14464
  6649
* 'refute' command added to search for (finite) countermodels.  Only works
webertj@14464
  6650
  for a fragment of HOL.  The installation of an external SAT solver is
webertj@14464
  6651
  highly recommended.  See "HOL/Refute.thy" for details.
webertj@14464
  6652
berghofe@14602
  6653
* 'quickcheck' command: Allows to find counterexamples by evaluating
berghofe@14602
  6654
  formulae under an assignment of free variables to random values.
berghofe@14602
  6655
  In contrast to 'refute', it can deal with inductive datatypes,
berghofe@14602
  6656
  but cannot handle quantifiers. See "HOL/ex/Quickcheck_Examples.thy"
berghofe@14602
  6657
  for examples.

* Provers/simplifier:
berghofe@13618
  6672
nipkow@13781
  6673
  - Completely reimplemented method simp (ML: Asm_full_simp_tac):
berghofe@13618
  6674
    Assumptions are now subject to complete mutual simplification,
berghofe@13618
  6675
    not just from left to right. The simplifier now preserves
berghofe@13618
  6676
    the order of assumptions.
berghofe@13618
  6677
berghofe@13618
  6678
    Potential INCOMPATIBILITY:
berghofe@13618
  6679
nipkow@13781
  6680
    -- simp sometimes diverges where the old version did
nipkow@13781
  6681
       not, e.g. invoking simp on the goal
berghofe@13618
  6682
berghofe@13618
  6683
        [| P (f x); y = x; f x = f y |] ==> Q
berghofe@13618
  6684
nipkow@13781
  6685
       now gives rise to the infinite reduction sequence
nipkow@13781
  6686
nipkow@13781
  6687
        P(f x) --(f x = f y)--> P(f y) --(y = x)--> P(f x) --(f x = f y)--> ...
nipkow@13781
  6688
nipkow@13781
  6689
       Using "simp (asm_lr)" (ML: Asm_lr_simp_tac) instead often solves this
nipkow@13781
  6690
       kind of problem.
nipkow@13781
  6691
nipkow@13781
  6692
    -- Tactics combining classical reasoner and simplification (such as auto)
nipkow@13781
  6693
       are also affected by this change, because many of them rely on
nipkow@13781
  6694
       simp. They may sometimes diverge as well or yield a different numbers
nipkow@13781
  6695
       of subgoals. Try to use e.g. force, fastsimp, or safe instead of auto
nipkow@13781
  6696
       in case of problems. Sometimes subsequent calls to the classical
nipkow@13781
  6697
       reasoner will fail because a preceeding call to the simplifier too
nipkow@13781
  6698
       eagerly simplified the goal, e.g. deleted redundant premises.
berghofe@13618
  6699
berghofe@13618
  6700
  - The simplifier trace now shows the names of the applied rewrite rules
berghofe@13618
  6701
nipkow@13829
  6702
  - You can limit the number of recursive invocations of the simplifier
nipkow@13829
  6703
    during conditional rewriting (where the simplifie tries to solve the
nipkow@13829
  6704
    conditions before applying the rewrite rule):
nipkow@13829
  6705
    ML "simp_depth_limit := n"
nipkow@13829
  6706
    where n is an integer. Thus you can force termination where previously
nipkow@13829
  6707
    the simplifier would diverge.
nipkow@13829
  6708
ballarin@13835

  - Accepts free variables as head terms in congruence rules.  Useful in Isar.

  - No longer aborts on failed congruence proof.  Instead, the

the subgoals. This behaviour is controlled by a new flag.
ballarin@13835

nipkow@13815
  6725
      PG menu: Isabelle/Isar -> Show me -> matching rules
nipkow@13815
  6726
The rules are ordered by how closely they match the subgoal.
nipkow@13815

In particular, rules that solve a subgoal outright are displayed first

(ML: ProofGeneral.print_intros())
nipkow@13815
  6730
nipkow@13815
  6731
* Pure: New flag trace_unify_fail causes unification to print
nipkow@13781
  6732
diagnostic information (PG: in trace buffer) when it fails. This is
nipkow@13781
  6733
useful for figuring out why single step proofs like rule, erule or
nipkow@13781
  6734
assumption failed.
nipkow@13781
  6735
nipkow@13815
  6736
* Pure: Locale specifications now produce predicate definitions
wenzelm@13410
  6737
according to the body of text (covering assumptions modulo local
wenzelm@13410
  6738
definitions); predicate "loc_axioms" covers newly introduced text,
wenzelm@13410
  6739
while "loc" is cumulative wrt. all included locale expressions; the
wenzelm@13410
  6740
latter view is presented only on export into the global theory
wenzelm@13410
  6741
context; potential INCOMPATIBILITY, use "(open)" option to fall back
wenzelm@13410
  6742
on the old view without predicates;
wenzelm@13410
  6743
wenzelm@13459
  6744
* Pure: predefined locales "var" and "struct" are useful for sharing
wenzelm@13459
  6745
parameters (as in CASL, for example); just specify something like
wenzelm@13459
  6746
``var x + var y + struct M'' as import;
wenzelm@13459
  6747
wenzelm@13463
  6748
* Pure: improved thms_containing: proper indexing of facts instead of
wenzelm@13463
  6749
raw theorems; check validity of results wrt. current name space;
wenzelm@13463
  6750
include local facts of proof configuration (also covers active
wenzelm@13541
  6751
locales), cover fixed variables in index; may use "_" in term
wenzelm@13541
  6752
specification; an optional limit for the number of printed facts may
wenzelm@13541
  6753
be given (the default is 40);
wenzelm@13541
  6754
wenzelm@13541
  6755
* Pure: disallow duplicate fact bindings within new-style theory files

  6756
(batch-mode only);
wenzelm@13540
  6757
wenzelm@13463
  6758
* Provers: improved induct method: assumptions introduced by case
wenzelm@13463
  6759
"foo" are split into "foo.hyps" (from the rule) and "foo.prems" (from
wenzelm@13463
  6760
the goal statement); "foo" still refers to all facts collectively;
wenzelm@13463
  6761
paulson@13550
  6762
* Provers: the function blast.overloaded has been removed: all constants
paulson@13550
  6763
are regarded as potentially overloaded, which improves robustness in exchange
paulson@13550
  6764
for slight decrease in efficiency;
paulson@13550
  6765
nipkow@13781
  6766
* Provers/linorder: New generic prover for transitivity reasoning over

 - Calls full Presburger arithmetic (by Amine Chaieb) if quantifier-free
nipkow@13899
  6785
   linear arithmetic fails. This takes account of quantifiers and divisibility.
wenzelm@14731
  6786
   Presburger arithmetic can also be called explicitly via presburger(_tac).
nipkow@13899

  6788
* simp's arithmetic capabilities have been enhanced a bit: it now
nipkow@13899
  6789
takes ~= in premises into account (by performing a case split);
nipkow@13899
  6790
nipkow@13899
  6791
* simp reduces "m*(n div m) + n mod m" to n, even if the two summands

wenzelm@13443
  6809
nipkow@13613

wenzelm@13478
  6861
omits the infamous "standard" operation, so this is more appropriate
wenzelm@13478
  6862
than prove_goalw_cterm in many situations (e.g. in simprocs);
wenzelm@13478

*** Document preparation ***
wenzelm@11572
  6891
wenzelm@11842
  6892
* greatly simplified document preparation setup, including more
wenzelm@11842
  6893
graceful interpretation of isatool usedir -i/-d/-D options, and more
wenzelm@11842
  6894
instructive isatool mkdir; users should basically be able to get
wenzelm@12899
  6895
started with "isatool mkdir HOL Test && isatool make"; alternatively,
wenzelm@12899
  6896
users may run a separate document processing stage manually like this:
wenzelm@12899
  6897
"isatool usedir -D output HOL Test && isatool document Test/output";
wenzelm@11842
  6898
wenzelm@11842
  6899
* theory dependency graph may now be incorporated into documents;
wenzelm@11842
  6900
isatool usedir -g true will produce session_graph.eps/.pdf for use
wenzelm@11842
  6901
with \includegraphics of LaTeX;
wenzelm@11842
  6902
wenzelm@11864
  6903
* proper spacing of consecutive markup elements, especially text
wenzelm@11864
  6904
blocks after section headings;
wenzelm@11864
  6905
wenzelm@11572
  6906
* support bold style (for single symbols only), input syntax is like
wenzelm@11572

this: "\<^bold>\<alpha>" or "\<^bold>A";
wenzelm@11572
  6908
wenzelm@11814
  6909
* \<bullet> is now output as bold \cdot by default, which looks much

  6910
better in printed text;
wenzelm@11572
  6911
wenzelm@11712
  6912
* added default LaTeX bindings for \<tturnstile> and \<TTurnstile>;
wenzelm@11712
  6913
note that these symbols are currently unavailable in Proof General /
wenzelm@12769
  6914

wenzelm@12690
  6915
wenzelm@12690

  6922
wenzelm@12312
  6923
* Pure/Provers: improved proof by cases and induction;
wenzelm@12280
  6924
  - 'case' command admits impromptu naming of parameters (such as
wenzelm@12280
  6925
    "case (Suc n)");
wenzelm@12280
  6926
  - 'induct' method divinates rule instantiation from the inductive
wenzelm@12280
  6927
    claim; no longer requires excessive ?P bindings for proper
wenzelm@12280
  6928
    instantiation of cases;
wenzelm@12280
  6929
  - 'induct' method properly enumerates all possibilities of set/type
wenzelm@12280
  6930
    rules; as a consequence facts may be also passed through *type*
wenzelm@12280
  6931
    rules without further ado;
wenzelm@12280
  6932
  - 'induct' method now derives symbolic cases from the *rulified*
wenzelm@12280
  6933
    rule (before it used to rulify cases stemming from the internal
wenzelm@12280
  6934
    atomized version); this means that the context of a non-atomic
wenzelm@12280
  6935
    statement becomes is included in the hypothesis, avoiding the
wenzelm@12280
  6936
    slightly cumbersome show "PROP ?case" form;
wenzelm@12280
  6937
  - 'induct' may now use elim-style induction rules without chaining
wenzelm@12280
  6938
    facts, using ``missing'' premises from the goal state; this allows
wenzelm@12280
  6939
    rules stemming from inductive sets to be applied in unstructured
wenzelm@12280
  6940
    scripts, while still benefitting from proper handling of non-atomic
wenzelm@12280
  6941
    statements; NB: major inductive premises need to be put first, all
wenzelm@12280
  6942
    the rest of the goal is passed through the induction;
wenzelm@12280
  6943
  - 'induct' proper support for mutual induction involving non-atomic
wenzelm@12280
  6944
    rule statements (uses the new concept of simultaneous goals, see
wenzelm@12280
  6945
    below);
wenzelm@12853
  6946
  - append all possible rule selections, but only use the first
wenzelm@12853
  6947
    success (no backtracking);
wenzelm@11995
  6948
  - removed obsolete "(simplified)" and "(stripped)" options of methods;
wenzelm@12754
  6949
  - undeclared rule case names default to numbers 1, 2, 3, ...;
wenzelm@12754
  6950
  - added 'print_induct_rules' (covered by help item in recent Proof
wenzelm@12754
  6951
    General versions);
wenzelm@11995
  6952
  - moved induct/cases attributes to Pure, methods to Provers;
wenzelm@11995
  6953
  - generic method setup instantiated for FOL and HOL;
wenzelm@11986
  6954
wenzelm@12163
  6955
* Pure: support multiple simultaneous goal statements, for example
wenzelm@12163
  6956
"have a: A and b: B" (same for 'theorem' etc.); being a pure
wenzelm@12163
  6957
meta-level mechanism, this acts as if several individual goals had
wenzelm@12163
  6958
been stated separately; in particular common proof methods need to be
wenzelm@12163
  6959
repeated in order to cover all claims; note that a single elimination
wenzelm@12163
  6960
step is *not* sufficient to establish the two conjunctions, so this
wenzelm@12163
  6961
fails:
wenzelm@12163
  6962
wenzelm@12163
  6963
  assume "A & B" then have A and B ..   (*".." fails*)
wenzelm@12163
  6964
wenzelm@12163
  6965
better use "obtain" in situations as above; alternative refer to
wenzelm@12163
  6966
multi-step methods like 'auto', 'simp_all', 'blast+' etc.;
wenzelm@12163
  6967
wenzelm@12078
  6968
* Pure: proper integration with ``locales''; unlike the original
webertj@15154
  6969
version by Florian Kammller, Isar locales package high-level proof
wenzelm@12078
  6970
contexts rather than raw logical ones (e.g. we admit to include
wenzelm@12280
  6971
attributes everywhere); operations on locales include merge and
wenzelm@12964
  6972
rename; support for implicit arguments (``structures''); simultaneous
wenzelm@12964
  6973
type-inference over imports and text; see also HOL/ex/Locales.thy for
wenzelm@12964
  6974
some examples;
wenzelm@12078
  6975
wenzelm@12707
  6976
* Pure: the following commands have been ``localized'', supporting a
wenzelm@12707
  6977
target locale specification "(in name)": 'lemma', 'theorem',
wenzelm@12707
  6978
'corollary', 'lemmas', 'theorems', 'declare'; the results will be
wenzelm@12707
  6979
stored both within the locale and at the theory level (exported and
wenzelm@12707
  6980
qualified by the locale name);
wenzelm@12707
  6981
wenzelm@12964
  6982
* Pure: theory goals may now be specified in ``long'' form, with
wenzelm@12964
  6983
ad-hoc contexts consisting of arbitrary locale elements. for example
wenzelm@12964
  6984
``lemma foo: fixes x assumes "A x" shows "B x"'' (local syntax and
wenzelm@12964
  6985
definitions may be given, too); the result is a meta-level rule with
wenzelm@12964
  6986
the context elements being discharged in the obvious way;
wenzelm@12964
  6987
wenzelm@12964
  6988
* Pure: new proof command 'using' allows to augment currently used
wenzelm@12964
  6989
facts after a goal statement ('using' is syntactically analogous to
wenzelm@12964
  6990
'apply', but acts on the goal's facts only); this allows chained facts
wenzelm@12964
  6991
to be separated into parts given before and after a claim, as in
wenzelm@12964
  6992
``from a and b have C using d and e <proof>'';
wenzelm@12078
  6993
wenzelm@11722
  6994
* Pure: renamed "antecedent" case to "rule_context";
wenzelm@11722
  6995
wenzelm@12964
  6996
* Pure: new 'judgment' command records explicit information about the
wenzelm@12964
  6997
object-logic embedding (used by several tools internally); no longer
wenzelm@12964
  6998
use hard-wired "Trueprop";
wenzelm@12964
  6999
wenzelm@11738
  7000
* Pure: added 'corollary' command;
wenzelm@11738
  7001
wenzelm@11722
  7002
* Pure: fixed 'token_translation' command;
wenzelm@11722
  7003
wenzelm@11899
  7004
* Pure: removed obsolete 'exported' attribute;
wenzelm@11899
  7005
wenzelm@11933
  7006
* Pure: dummy pattern "_" in is/let is now automatically lifted over
wenzelm@11933
  7007
bound variables: "ALL x. P x --> Q x" (is "ALL x. _ --> ?C x")
wenzelm@11899
  7008
supersedes more cumbersome ... (is "ALL x. _ x --> ?C x");
wenzelm@11899
  7009
wenzelm@11952
  7010
* Pure: method 'atomize' presents local goal premises as object-level
wenzelm@11952
  7011
statements (atomic meta-level propositions); setup controlled via
wenzelm@11952
  7012
rewrite rules declarations of 'atomize' attribute; example
wenzelm@11952
  7013
application: 'induct' method with proper rule statements in improper
wenzelm@11952
  7014
proof *scripts*;
wenzelm@11952
  7015
wenzelm@12106
  7016
* Pure: emulation of instantiation tactics (rule_tac, cut_tac, etc.)
wenzelm@12106
  7017
now consider the syntactic context of assumptions, giving a better
wenzelm@12106
  7018
chance to get type-inference of the arguments right (this is
wenzelm@12106
  7019
especially important for locales);
wenzelm@12106
  7020
wenzelm@12312
  7021
* Pure: "sorry" no longer requires quick_and_dirty in interactive
wenzelm@12312
  7022
mode;
wenzelm@12312
  7023
wenzelm@12405
  7024
* Pure/obtain: the formal conclusion "thesis", being marked as
wenzelm@12405
  7025
``internal'', may no longer be reference directly in the text;
wenzelm@12405
  7026
potential INCOMPATIBILITY, may need to use "?thesis" in rare
wenzelm@12405
  7027
situations;
wenzelm@12405
  7028
wenzelm@12405
  7029
* Pure: generic 'sym' attribute which declares a rule both as pure
wenzelm@12405
  7030
'elim?' and for the 'symmetric' operation;
wenzelm@12405
  7031
wenzelm@12877
  7032
* Pure: marginal comments ``--'' may now occur just anywhere in the
wenzelm@12877
  7033
text; the fixed correlation with particular command syntax has been
wenzelm@12877
  7034
discontinued;
wenzelm@12877
  7035
berghofe@13023
  7036
* Pure: new method 'rules' is particularly well-suited for proof
berghofe@13023
  7037
search in intuitionistic logic; a bit slower than 'blast' or 'fast',
berghofe@13023
  7038
but often produces more compact proof terms with less detours;
berghofe@13023
  7039
wenzelm@12364
  7040
* Pure/Provers/classical: simplified integration with pure rule
wenzelm@12364
  7041
attributes and methods; the classical "intro?/elim?/dest?"
wenzelm@12364
  7042
declarations coincide with the pure ones; the "rule" method no longer
wenzelm@12364
  7043
includes classically swapped intros; "intro" and "elim" methods no
wenzelm@12364
  7044
longer pick rules from the context; also got rid of ML declarations
wenzelm@12364
  7045
AddXIs/AddXEs/AddXDs; all of this has some potential for
wenzelm@12364
  7046
INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@12364
  7047
wenzelm@12405
  7048
* Provers/classical: attribute 'swapped' produces classical inversions
wenzelm@12405
  7049
of introduction rules;
wenzelm@12405
  7050
wenzelm@12364
  7051
* Provers/simplifier: 'simplified' attribute may refer to explicit

  7052
rules instead of full simplifier context; 'iff' attribute handles
wenzelm@12364
  7053
conditional rules;
wenzelm@11936
  7054
wenzelm@11745
  7055
* HOL: 'typedef' now allows alternative names for Rep/Abs morphisms;
wenzelm@11745
  7056
wenzelm@11690
  7057
* HOL: 'recdef' now fails on unfinished automated proofs, use
wenzelm@11633
  7058
"(permissive)" option to recover old behavior;
wenzelm@11633
  7059
wenzelm@11933
  7060
* HOL: 'inductive' no longer features separate (collective) attributes
wenzelm@11933
  7061
for 'intros' (was found too confusing);
wenzelm@11933
  7062
wenzelm@12405
  7063
* HOL: properly declared induction rules less_induct and
wenzelm@12405
  7064
wf_induct_rule;

  7067
*** HOL ***
wenzelm@11474
  7068
wenzelm@11702
  7069
* HOL: moved over to sane numeral syntax; the new policy is as
wenzelm@11702
  7070
follows:
wenzelm@11702
  7071
wenzelm@11702
  7072
  - 0 and 1 are polymorphic constants, which are defined on any
wenzelm@11702
  7073
  numeric type (nat, int, real etc.);
wenzelm@11702
  7074
wenzelm@11702
  7075
  - 2, 3, 4, ... and -1, -2, -3, ... are polymorphic numerals, based
wenzelm@11702
  7076
  binary representation internally;
wenzelm@11702
  7077
wenzelm@11702
  7078
  - type nat has special constructor Suc, and generally prefers Suc 0
wenzelm@11702
  7079
  over 1::nat and Suc (Suc 0) over 2::nat;
wenzelm@11702
  7080
wenzelm@12364
  7081
This change may cause significant problems of INCOMPATIBILITY; here
wenzelm@12364
  7082
are some hints on converting existing sources:
wenzelm@11702
  7083
wenzelm@11702
  7084
  - due to the new "num" token, "-0" and "-1" etc. are now atomic
wenzelm@11702
  7085
  entities, so expressions involving "-" (unary or binary minus) need
wenzelm@11702
  7086
  to be spaced properly;
wenzelm@11702
  7087
wenzelm@11702
  7088
  - existing occurrences of "1" may need to be constraint "1::nat" or
wenzelm@11702
  7089
  even replaced by Suc 0; similar for old "2";
wenzelm@11702
  7090
wenzelm@11702
  7091
  - replace "#nnn" by "nnn", and "#-nnn" by "-nnn";
wenzelm@11702
  7092
wenzelm@11702
  7093
  - remove all special provisions on numerals in proofs;
wenzelm@11702
  7094
wenzelm@13042
  7095
* HOL: simp rules nat_number expand numerals on nat to Suc/0
wenzelm@12837
  7096
representation (depends on bin_arith_simps in the default context);
wenzelm@12837
  7097
wenzelm@12736
  7098
* HOL: symbolic syntax for x^2 (numeral 2);
wenzelm@12736
  7099
wenzelm@12335
  7100
* HOL: the class of all HOL types is now called "type" rather than
wenzelm@12335
  7101
"term"; INCOMPATIBILITY, need to adapt references to this type class
wenzelm@12335
  7102
in axclass/classes, instance/arities, and (usually rare) occurrences
wenzelm@12335
  7103
in typings (of consts etc.); internally the class is called
wenzelm@12335
  7104
"HOL.type", ML programs should refer to HOLogic.typeS;
wenzelm@12335
  7105
wenzelm@12280
  7106
* HOL/record package improvements:
wenzelm@12280
  7107
  - new derived operations "fields" to build a partial record section,
wenzelm@12280
  7108
    "extend" to promote a fixed record to a record scheme, and
wenzelm@12280
  7109
    "truncate" for the reverse; cf. theorems "xxx.defs", which are *not*
wenzelm@12280
  7110
    declared as simp by default;
wenzelm@12587
  7111
  - shared operations ("more", "fields", etc.) now need to be always
wenzelm@12587
  7112
    qualified) --- potential INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@12280
  7113
  - removed "make_scheme" operations (use "make" with "extend") --
wenzelm@12280
  7114
    INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@11937
  7115
  - removed "more" class (simply use "term") -- INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@12253
  7116
  - provides cases/induct rules for use with corresponding Isar
wenzelm@12253
  7117
    methods (for concrete records, record schemes, concrete more
wenzelm@12280
  7118
    parts, and schematic more parts -- in that order);
wenzelm@11930
  7119
  - internal definitions directly based on a light-weight abstract
wenzelm@11930
  7120
    theory of product types over typedef rather than datatype;
wenzelm@11930
  7121
berghofe@13023
  7122
* HOL: generic code generator for generating executable ML code from
berghofe@13023
  7123
specifications; specific support for HOL constructs such as inductive
berghofe@13023
  7124
datatypes and sets, as well as recursive functions; can be invoked
berghofe@13023
  7125
via 'generate_code' theory section;
berghofe@13023
  7126
wenzelm@11933
  7127
* HOL: canonical cases/induct rules for n-tuples (n = 3..7);
wenzelm@11933
  7128
paulson@13824
  7129
* HOL: consolidated and renamed several theories.  In particular:
wenzelm@14731
  7130
        Ord.thy has been absorbed into HOL.thy
wenzelm@14731
  7131
        String.thy has been absorbed into List.thy
wenzelm@14731
  7132
wenzelm@11802
  7133
* HOL: concrete setsum syntax "\<Sum>i:A. b" == "setsum (%i. b) A"
wenzelm@11802
  7134
(beware of argument permutation!);
wenzelm@11802
  7135
wenzelm@11657
  7136
* HOL: linorder_less_split superseded by linorder_cases;
wenzelm@11657
  7137
wenzelm@12917
  7138
* HOL/List: "nodups" renamed to "distinct";
nipkow@12889
  7139
wenzelm@11633
  7140
* HOL: added "The" definite description operator; move Hilbert's "Eps"
paulson@13824
  7141
to peripheral theory "Hilbert_Choice"; some INCOMPATIBILITIES:
paulson@13824
  7142
  - Ex_def has changed, now need to use some_eq_ex
wenzelm@11437
  7143
wenzelm@11572
  7144
* HOL: made split_all_tac safe; EXISTING PROOFS MAY FAIL OR LOOP, so
wenzelm@11572
  7145
in this (rare) case use:
wenzelm@11572
  7146
wenzelm@11572
  7147
  delSWrapper "split_all_tac"
wenzelm@11572
  7148
  addSbefore ("unsafe_split_all_tac", unsafe_split_all_tac)
wenzelm@11572
  7149
wenzelm@11572
  7150
* HOL: added safe wrapper "split_conv_tac" to claset; EXISTING PROOFS
wenzelm@11474
  7151
MAY FAIL;
nipkow@11361
  7152
wenzelm@11572
  7153
* HOL: introduced f^n = f o ... o f; warning: due to the limits of
wenzelm@11572
  7154
Isabelle's type classes, ^ on functions and relations has too general
wenzelm@11572
  7155
a domain, namely ('a * 'b) set and 'a => 'b; this means that it may be
wenzelm@11572
  7156
necessary to attach explicit type constraints;
nipkow@11307
  7157
wenzelm@12917
  7158
* HOL/Relation: the prefix name of the infix "O" has been changed from
wenzelm@12917
  7159
"comp" to "rel_comp"; INCOMPATIBILITY: a few theorems have been
wenzelm@12917
  7160
renamed accordingly (eg "compI" -> "rel_compI").
nipkow@12489
  7161
wenzelm@11487
  7162
* HOL: syntax translations now work properly with numerals and records
wenzelm@11487
  7163
expressions;
wenzelm@11474
  7164
wenzelm@12457
  7165
* HOL: bounded abstraction now uses syntax "%" / "\<lambda>" instead
wenzelm@12457
  7166
of "lam" -- INCOMPATIBILITY;
wenzelm@11474
  7167
wenzelm@11933
  7168
* HOL: got rid of some global declarations (potential INCOMPATIBILITY
wenzelm@11933
  7169
for ML tools): const "()" renamed "Product_Type.Unity", type "unit"
wenzelm@11933
  7170
renamed "Product_Type.unit";
wenzelm@11611
  7171
nipkow@12564
  7172
* HOL: renamed rtrancl_into_rtrancl2 to converse_rtrancl_into_rtrancl
nipkow@12564
  7173
wenzelm@12924
  7174
* HOL: removed obsolete theorem "optionE" (use "option.exhaust", or
wenzelm@12924
  7175
the "cases" method);
wenzelm@12924
  7176
wenzelm@12597
  7177
* HOL/GroupTheory: group theory examples including Sylow's theorem (by
webertj@15154
  7178
Florian Kammller);
wenzelm@12597
  7179
wenzelm@12608
  7180
* HOL/IMP: updated and converted to new-style theory format; several
wenzelm@12608
  7181
parts turned into readable document, with proper Isar proof texts and
wenzelm@12608
  7182
some explanations (by Gerwin Klein);
wenzelm@12597
  7183
wenzelm@12734
  7184
* HOL-Real: added Complex_Numbers (by Gertrud Bauer);
wenzelm@12734
  7185
wenzelm@12690
  7186
* HOL-Hyperreal is now a logic image;
wenzelm@12690
  7187
wenzelm@11611
  7188
wenzelm@12022
  7189
*** HOLCF ***
wenzelm@12022
  7190
wenzelm@12622
  7191
* Isar: consts/constdefs supports mixfix syntax for continuous
wenzelm@12622
  7192
operations;
wenzelm@12622
  7193
wenzelm@12622
  7194
* Isar: domain package adapted to new-style theory format, e.g. see
wenzelm@12622
  7195
HOLCF/ex/Dnat.thy;
wenzelm@12622
  7196
wenzelm@12622
  7197
* theory Lift: proper use of rep_datatype lift instead of ML hacks --
wenzelm@12280
  7198
potential INCOMPATIBILITY; now use plain induct_tac instead of former
wenzelm@12280
  7199
lift.induct_tac, always use UU instead of Undef;
wenzelm@12022
  7200
wenzelm@12597
  7201
* HOLCF/IMP: updated and converted to new-style theory;
wenzelm@12597
  7202
wenzelm@12022
  7203
wenzelm@11474
  7204
*** ZF ***
wenzelm@11474
  7205
wenzelm@12622
  7206
* Isar: proper integration of logic-specific tools and packages,
wenzelm@12622
  7207
including theory commands '(co)inductive', '(co)datatype',
wenzelm@12622
  7208
'rep_datatype', 'inductive_cases', as well as methods 'ind_cases',
wenzelm@12622
  7209
'induct_tac', 'case_tac', and 'typecheck' (with attribute 'TC');
wenzelm@12622
  7210
wenzelm@12622
  7211
* theory Main no longer includes AC; for the Axiom of Choice, base
wenzelm@12622
  7212
your theory on Main_ZFC;
wenzelm@12622
  7213
wenzelm@12622
  7214
* the integer library now covers quotients and remainders, with many
wenzelm@12622
  7215
laws relating division to addition, multiplication, etc.;
paulson@12563
  7216
wenzelm@12280
  7217
* ZF/UNITY: Chandy and Misra's UNITY is now available in ZF, giving a
wenzelm@12280
  7218
typeless version of the formalism;
wenzelm@12280
  7219
wenzelm@13025
  7220
* ZF/AC, Coind, IMP, Resid: updated and converted to new-style theory
wenzelm@13025
  7221
format;
wenzelm@12608
  7222
wenzelm@12280
  7223
* ZF/Induct: new directory for examples of inductive definitions,
wenzelm@12608
  7224
including theory Multiset for multiset orderings; converted to
wenzelm@12608
  7225
new-style theory format;
wenzelm@12177
  7226
wenzelm@13025
  7227
* ZF: many new theorems about lists, ordinals, etc.;
paulson@12850

wenzelm@11474
  7230
*** General ***
wenzelm@11474
  7231
wenzelm@12280
  7232
* Pure/kernel: meta-level proof terms (by Stefan Berghofer); reference
wenzelm@12280
  7233
variable proof controls level of detail: 0 = no proofs (only oracle
wenzelm@12280
  7234
dependencies), 1 = lemma dependencies, 2 = compact proof terms; see
wenzelm@12280
  7235
also ref manual for further ML interfaces;
wenzelm@12280
  7236
wenzelm@12280
  7237
* Pure/axclass: removed obsolete ML interface
wenzelm@12280
  7238
goal_subclass/goal_arity;
wenzelm@12280
  7239
wenzelm@12280
  7240
* Pure/syntax: new token syntax "num" for plain numerals (without "#"
wenzelm@12280
  7241
of "xnum"); potential INCOMPATIBILITY, since -0, -1 etc. are now
wenzelm@12280
  7242
separate tokens, so expressions involving minus need to be spaced
wenzelm@12280
  7243
properly;
wenzelm@12280
  7244
wenzelm@12312
  7245
* Pure/syntax: support non-oriented infixes, using keyword "infix"
wenzelm@12312
  7246
rather than "infixl" or "infixr";
wenzelm@12312
  7247
wenzelm@12312
  7248
* Pure/syntax: concrete syntax for dummy type variables admits genuine
wenzelm@12312
  7249
sort constraint specifications in type inference; e.g. "x::_::foo"
wenzelm@12312
  7250
ensures that the type of "x" is of sort "foo" (but not necessarily a
wenzelm@12312
  7251
type variable);
wenzelm@12280
  7252
wenzelm@12280
  7253
* Pure/syntax: print modes "type_brackets" and "no_type_brackets"
wenzelm@12280
  7254
control output of nested => (types); the default behavior is
wenzelm@12280
  7255
"type_brackets";
wenzelm@12280
  7256
wenzelm@12280
  7257
* Pure/syntax: builtin parse translation for "_constify" turns valued
wenzelm@11817
  7258
tokens into AST constants;
wenzelm@11474
  7259
wenzelm@12280
  7260
* Pure/syntax: prefer later declarations of translations and print
wenzelm@12280
  7261
translation functions; potential INCOMPATIBILITY: need to reverse
wenzelm@12280
  7262
multiple declarations for same syntax element constant;
wenzelm@12280
  7263
wenzelm@12832
  7264
* Pure/show_hyps reset by default (in accordance to existing Isar
wenzelm@12832
  7265
practice);
wenzelm@12832
  7266
wenzelm@12280
  7267
* Provers/classical: renamed addaltern to addafter, addSaltern to
wenzelm@12280
  7268
addSafter;
wenzelm@12280
  7269
wenzelm@12280
  7270
* Provers/clasimp: ``iff'' declarations now handle conditional rules
wenzelm@12280
  7271
as well;
wenzelm@12253
  7272
wenzelm@12538
  7273
* system: tested support for MacOS X; should be able to get Isabelle +
wenzelm@12538
  7274
Proof General to work in a plain Terminal after installing Poly/ML
wenzelm@12538
  7275
(e.g. from the Isabelle distribution area) and GNU bash alone
wenzelm@12538
  7276
(e.g. from http://www.apple.com); full X11, XEmacs and X-Symbol
wenzelm@12538
  7277
support requires further installations, e.g. from
wenzelm@12538
  7278
http://fink.sourceforge.net/);
wenzelm@12538
  7279
wenzelm@12280
  7280
* system: support Poly/ML 4.1.1 (able to manage larger heaps);
wenzelm@11551
  7281
wenzelm@12753
  7282
* system: reduced base memory usage by Poly/ML (approx. 20 MB instead
wenzelm@12753
  7283
of 40 MB), cf. ML_OPTIONS;
wenzelm@12753
  7284
wenzelm@11633
  7285
* system: Proof General keywords specification is now part of the
wenzelm@11633
  7286
Isabelle distribution (see etc/isar-keywords.el);
wenzelm@11633
  7287
wenzelm@12728
  7288
* system: support for persistent Proof General sessions (refrain from
wenzelm@12728
  7289
outdating all loaded theories on startup); user may create writable
wenzelm@12728
  7290
logic images like this: ``isabelle -q HOL Test'';
wenzelm@12597
  7291
wenzelm@11551
  7292
* system: smart selection of Isabelle process versus Isabelle
wenzelm@11572
  7293
interface, accommodates case-insensitive file systems (e.g. HFS+); may
wenzelm@11572
  7294
run both "isabelle" and "Isabelle" even if file names are badly
wenzelm@11572
  7295
damaged (executable inspects the case of the first letter of its own
wenzelm@11572
  7296
name); added separate "isabelle-process" and "isabelle-interface";
wenzelm@11551
  7297
wenzelm@12472
  7298
* system: refrain from any attempt at filtering input streams; no
wenzelm@12472
  7299
longer support ``8bit'' encoding of old isabelle font, instead proper
wenzelm@12472
  7300
iso-latin characters may now be used; the related isatools
wenzelm@12472
  7301
"symbolinput" and "nonascii" have disappeared as well;
wenzelm@12472
  7302
wenzelm@12472
  7303
* system: removed old "xterm" interface (the print modes "xterm" and
wenzelm@12472
  7304
"xterm_color" are still available for direct use in a suitable
wenzelm@12472
  7305

*** Overview of INCOMPATIBILITIES ***
nipkow@10224
  7313
paulson@11241
  7314
* HOL: please note that theories in the Library and elsewhere often use the
paulson@11241
  7315
new-style (Isar) format; to refer to their theorems in an ML script you must
wenzelm@12622
  7316
bind them to ML identifers by e.g.      val thm_name = thm "thm_name";
paulson@11241
  7317
wenzelm@11043
  7318
* HOL: inductive package no longer splits induction rule aggressively,
wenzelm@11043
  7319
but only as far as specified by the introductions given; the old
oheimb@11130
  7320
format may be recovered via ML function complete_split_rule or attribute
wenzelm@11043
  7321
'split_rule (complete)';
wenzelm@11043
  7322
wenzelm@10998
  7323
* HOL: induct renamed to lfp_induct, lfp_Tarski to lfp_unfold,
wenzelm@10998
  7324
gfp_Tarski to gfp_unfold;
nipkow@10224
  7325
paulson@10288

* HOL: infix "dvd" now has priority 50 rather than 70 (because it is a
wenzelm@10858
  7329
relation); infix "^^" has been renamed "``"; infix "``" has been
wenzelm@10858

wenzelm@10998
  7334
nipkow@10868

  7336
wenzelm@10391

* Isar: 'obtain' no longer declares "that" fact as simp/intro;
wenzelm@10391
  7338
wenzelm@10401
  7339
* Isar/HOL: method 'induct' now handles non-atomic goals; as a
wenzelm@10401
  7340
consequence, it is no longer monotonic wrt. the local goal context
wenzelm@10401
  7341
(which is now passed through the inductive cases);
wenzelm@10401
  7342
wenzelm@10976

  7359
the complete list of symbols defined in isabellesym.sty;
wenzelm@10858
  7360
wenzelm@10998
  7361
* improved isabelle style files; more abstract symbol implementation

*** Isar ***
wenzelm@10306
  7380
wenzelm@10547
  7381
* Pure: Isar now suffers initial goal statements to contain unbound
wenzelm@10547
  7382
schematic variables (this does not conform to actual readable proof
wenzelm@10547
  7383
documents, due to unpredictable outcome and non-compositional proof
wenzelm@10547
  7384

wenzelm@10547
  7385
for Prolog-style synthesis of proven results;
wenzelm@10547
  7386
wenzelm@10391
  7387
* Pure: assumption method (an implicit finishing) now handles actual
wenzelm@10391
  7388
rules as well;
wenzelm@10391
  7389
wenzelm@10391
  7390
* Pure: improved 'obtain' --- moved to Pure, insert "that" into
wenzelm@10391
  7391
initial goal, declare "that" only as Pure intro (only for single
wenzelm@10391
  7392
steps); the "that" rule assumption may now be involved in implicit
wenzelm@10391
  7393
finishing, thus ".." becomes a feasible for trivial obtains;
wenzelm@10391
  7394
wenzelm@10391
  7395

wenzelm@10306
  7400
wenzelm@11097
  7401
* Pure: more robust selection of calculational rules;
wenzelm@11097
  7402
wenzelm@10858
  7403
* Pure: the builtin notion of 'finished' goal now includes the ==-refl
wenzelm@10858
  7404
rule (as well as the assumption rule);
wenzelm@10858
  7405
wenzelm@10858
  7406
* Pure: 'thm_deps' command visualizes dependencies of theorems and
wenzelm@10858
  7407
lemmas, using the graph browser tool;
wenzelm@10858
  7408
wenzelm@10944
  7409
* Pure: predict failure of "show" in interactive mode;
wenzelm@10944
  7410
wenzelm@11016

* Pure: 'thms_containing' now takes actual terms as arguments;
wenzelm@11016
  7412
wenzelm@10401
  7413
* HOL: improved method 'induct' --- now handles non-atomic goals
wenzelm@10401
  7414
(potential INCOMPATIBILITY); tuned error handling;
wenzelm@10401
  7415
wenzelm@10557
  7416
* HOL: cases and induct rules now provide explicit hints about the
wenzelm@10547
  7417
number of facts to be consumed (0 for "type" and 1 for "set" rules);
wenzelm@10547
  7418
any remaining facts are inserted into the goal verbatim;
wenzelm@10547
  7419
wenzelm@10858
  7420
* HOL: local contexts (aka cases) may now contain term bindings as
wenzelm@10858
  7421
well; the 'cases' and 'induct' methods new provide a ?case binding for
wenzelm@10858
  7422
the result to be shown in each case;
wenzelm@10858
  7423
wenzelm@10770
  7424

wenzelm@10245
  7431
* HOL/Library: a collection of generic theories to be used together
wenzelm@10245
  7432
with main HOL; the theory loader path already includes this directory
wenzelm@10245
  7433
by default; the following existing theories have been moved here:
wenzelm@10245
  7434
HOL/Induct/Multiset, HOL/Induct/Acc (as Accessible_Part), HOL/While
wenzelm@10337
  7435
(as While_Combinator), HOL/Lex/Prefix (as List_Prefix);
wenzelm@10245
  7436
wenzelm@10966
  7437
* HOL/Unix: "Some aspects of Unix file-system security", a typical
wenzelm@10966
  7438
modelling and verification task performed in Isabelle/HOL +
wenzelm@10966
  7439
Isabelle/Isar + Isabelle document preparation (by Markus Wenzel).
wenzelm@10966
  7440
wenzelm@11094
  7441
* HOL/Algebra: special summation operator SUM no longer exists, it has
wenzelm@11094
  7442
been replaced by setsum; infix 'assoc' now has priority 50 (like
wenzelm@11094
  7443
'dvd'); axiom 'one_not_zero' has been moved from axclass 'ring' to
wenzelm@11094
  7444
'domain', this makes the theory consistent with mathematical
wenzelm@11094
  7445
literature;
wenzelm@11094
  7446
wenzelm@10514
  7447
* HOL basics: added overloaded operations "inverse" and "divide"
wenzelm@10726
  7448
(infix "/"), syntax for generic "abs" operation, generic summation
wenzelm@11094
  7449
operator \<Sum>;
wenzelm@10452
  7450
wenzelm@10391
  7451
* HOL/typedef: simplified package, provide more useful rules (see also
wenzelm@10391
  7452
HOL/subset.thy);
wenzelm@10391
  7453
wenzelm@10915
  7454
* HOL/datatype: induction rule for arbitrarily branching datatypes is
wenzelm@10915
  7455
now expressed as a proper nested rule (old-style tactic scripts may
wenzelm@10915
  7456
require atomize_strip_tac to cope with non-atomic premises);
wenzelm@10915
  7457
wenzelm@10915
  7458
* HOL: renamed theory "Prod" to "Product_Type", renamed "split" rule
wenzelm@10915
  7459
to "split_conv" (old name still available for compatibility);
wenzelm@10915
  7460
wenzelm@10915
  7461
* HOL: improved concrete syntax for strings (e.g. allows translation
wenzelm@10915
  7462
rules with string literals);
wenzelm@10915
  7463
paulson@12245
  7464
* HOL-Real-Hyperreal: this extends HOL-Real with the hyperreals
paulson@12245
  7465
 and Fleuriot's mechanization of analysis, including the transcendental
paulson@12245
  7466
 functions for the reals;
paulson@10756
  7467
wenzelm@11094
  7468
* HOL/Real, HOL/Hyperreal: improved arithmetic simplification;

paulson@10474
  7471
*** CTT ***
paulson@10474
  7472
wenzelm@10547
  7473
* CTT: x-symbol support for Pi, Sigma, -->, : (membership); note that
wenzelm@10547
  7474
"lam" is displayed as TWO lambda-symbols
paulson@10474
  7475
wenzelm@10547
  7476
* CTT: theory Main now available, containing everything (that is, Bool

*** General ***
wenzelm@10391
  7481
wenzelm@10547
  7482
* Pure: the Simplifier has been implemented properly as a derived rule
wenzelm@10547
  7483
outside of the actual kernel (at last!); the overall performance
wenzelm@10547
  7484
penalty in practical applications is about 50%, while reliability of
wenzelm@10547
  7485
the Isabelle inference kernel has been greatly improved;
wenzelm@10547
  7486
wenzelm@11112
  7487
* print modes "brackets" and "no_brackets" control output of nested =>
wenzelm@11112
  7488
(types) and ==> (props); the default behaviour is "brackets";
wenzelm@11112
  7489
wenzelm@10391
  7490
* Provers: fast_tac (and friends) now handle actual object-logic rules
wenzelm@10391
  7491
as assumptions as well;
wenzelm@10391
  7492
wenzelm@11124
  7493
* system: support Poly/ML 4.0;
wenzelm@11124

*** Overview of INCOMPATIBILITIES ***
paulson@8014
  7503
wenzelm@8848
  7504
* HOL: simplification of natural numbers is much changed; to partly
wenzelm@8848
  7505
recover the old behaviour (e.g. to prevent n+n rewriting to #2*n)
wenzelm@8848
  7506
issue the following ML commands:
wenzelm@8848
  7507
wenzelm@8848
  7508
  Delsimprocs Nat_Numeral_Simprocs.cancel_numerals;
wenzelm@8848
  7509
  Delsimprocs [Nat_Numeral_Simprocs.combine_numerals];
paulson@8788
  7510
wenzelm@10129
  7511
* HOL: simplification no longer dives into case-expressions; this is
wenzelm@10129
  7512
controlled by "t.weak_case_cong" for each datatype t;
paulson@8967
  7513
wenzelm@10003
  7514
* HOL: nat_less_induct renamed to less_induct;
wenzelm@10003
  7515
wenzelm@10003
  7516
* HOL: systematic renaming of the SOME (Eps) rules, may use isatool
wenzelm@10003
  7517
fixsome to patch .thy and .ML sources automatically;
wenzelm@10003
  7518

  selectI2         -> someI2
wenzelm@10003
  7523
  selectI          -> someI
wenzelm@10003
  7524
  select1_equality -> some1_equality
wenzelm@10003
  7525
  Eps_sym_eq       -> some_sym_eq_trivial

  Eps_eq           -> some_eq_trivial
wenzelm@10003
  7527
wenzelm@36856
  7528
* HOL: exhaust_tac on datatypes superceded by new generic case_tac;
wenzelm@10003
  7529
wenzelm@10003
  7530
* HOL: removed obsolete theorem binding expand_if (refer to split_if
wenzelm@10003
  7531
instead);
wenzelm@10003
  7532
wenzelm@10003
  7533
* HOL: the recursion equations generated by 'recdef' are now called
wenzelm@10003
  7534
f.simps instead of f.rules;
wenzelm@10003
  7535
wenzelm@10003
  7536
* HOL: qed_spec_mp now also handles bounded ALL as well;
wenzelm@10003
  7537
wenzelm@10003
  7538
* HOL: 0 is now overloaded, so the type constraint ":: nat" may
wenzelm@10003
  7539
sometimes be needed;
wenzelm@10003
  7540
wenzelm@10003
  7541
* HOL: the constant for "f``x" is now "image" rather than "op ``";
paulson@8014
  7542
paulson@10065
  7543
* HOL: the constant for "f-``x" is now "vimage" rather than "op -``";
paulson@10065
  7544
wenzelm@9330
  7545
* HOL: the disjoint sum is now "<+>" instead of "Plus"; the cartesian
wenzelm@9330
  7546
product is now "<*>" instead of "Times"; the lexicographic product is
wenzelm@9330
  7547
now "<*lex*>" instead of "**";
nipkow@8705
  7548
wenzelm@10003
  7549
* HOL: theory Sexp is now in HOL/Induct examples (it used to be part
wenzelm@10003
  7550
of main HOL, but was unused); better use HOL's datatype package;
paulson@9971
  7551
wenzelm@10137
  7552
* HOL: removed "symbols" syntax for constant "override" of theory Map;
wenzelm@10137
  7553
the old syntax may be recovered as follows:
wenzelm@10137
  7554
wenzelm@10137
  7555
  syntax (symbols)
wenzelm@10137
  7556
    override  :: "('a ~=> 'b) => ('a ~=> 'b) => ('a ~=> 'b)"
wenzelm@10137
  7557
      (infixl "\\<oplus>" 100)
wenzelm@10137
  7558
wenzelm@8848
  7559
* HOL/Real: "rabs" replaced by overloaded "abs" function;
wenzelm@8848
  7560
wenzelm@8887
  7561
* HOL/ML: even fewer consts are declared as global (see theories Ord,
wenzelm@8887
  7562
Lfp, Gfp, WF); this only affects ML packages that refer to const names
wenzelm@8887
  7563
internally;
wenzelm@8887
  7564
wenzelm@10003
  7565
* HOL and ZF: syntax for quotienting wrt an equivalence relation
wenzelm@10003
  7566
changed from A/r to A//r;
wenzelm@9908
  7567
wenzelm@10003
  7568
* ZF: new treatment of arithmetic (nat & int) may break some old
wenzelm@10003
  7569
proofs;
paulson@9388
  7570
wenzelm@10003
  7571
* Isar: renamed some attributes (RS -> THEN, simplify -> simplified,
wenzelm@10003
  7572
rulify -> rule_format, elimify -> elim_format, ...);
paulson@9542
  7573
wenzelm@9941
  7574
* Isar/Provers: intro/elim/dest attributes changed; renamed
wenzelm@9941
  7575
intro/intro!/intro!! flags to intro!/intro/intro? (in most cases, one
wenzelm@9937
  7576
should have to change intro!! to intro? only); replaced "delrule" by
wenzelm@9937
  7577
"rule del";
wenzelm@9437
  7578
wenzelm@9612
  7579
* Isar/HOL: renamed "intrs" to "intros" in inductive definitions;
wenzelm@9612
  7580
wenzelm@9437
  7581
* Provers: strengthened force_tac by using new first_best_tac;
oheimb@9402
  7582
wenzelm@10003
  7583
* LaTeX document preparation: several changes of isabelle.sty (see
wenzelm@10003
  7584
lib/texinputs);

*** Document preparation ***
wenzelm@8358
  7588
wenzelm@9198
  7589
* formal comments (text blocks etc.) in new-style theories may now
wenzelm@9753
  7590
contain antiquotations of thm/prop/term/typ/text to be presented
wenzelm@9753
  7591
according to latex print mode; concrete syntax is like this:
wenzelm@9753
  7592
@{term[show_types] "f(x) = a + x"};
wenzelm@9198
  7593
wenzelm@8358
  7594
* isatool mkdir provides easy setup of Isabelle session directories,
wenzelm@8518
  7595
including proper document sources;
wenzelm@8358
  7596
wenzelm@8358
  7597
* generated LaTeX sources are now deleted after successful run
wenzelm@8358
  7598
(isatool document -c); may retain a copy somewhere else via -D option
wenzelm@8358
  7599
of isatool usedir;
wenzelm@8358
  7600
wenzelm@8566
  7601
* isatool usedir -D now lets isatool latex -o sty update the Isabelle
wenzelm@10003
  7602
style files, achieving self-contained LaTeX sources and simplifying
wenzelm@10003
  7603
LaTeX debugging;
wenzelm@8566
  7604
wenzelm@8518
  7605
* old-style theories now produce (crude) LaTeX output as well;
wenzelm@8358
  7606
wenzelm@9057
  7607
* browser info session directories are now self-contained (may be put
wenzelm@9437
  7608
on WWW server seperately); improved graphs of nested sessions; removed
wenzelm@9437
  7609
graph for 'all sessions';

*** Isar ***
wenzelm@8184
  7617
wenzelm@10003
  7618
* Isar/Pure: local results and corresponding term bindings are now
wenzelm@10003
  7619
subject to Hindley-Milner polymorphism (similar to ML); this
wenzelm@10003
  7620
accommodates incremental type-inference very nicely;
wenzelm@8283
  7621
wenzelm@10003
  7622
* Isar/Pure: new derived language element 'obtain' supports
wenzelm@10003
  7623
generalized existence reasoning;
wenzelm@8621
  7624
wenzelm@10003
  7625
* Isar/Pure: new calculational elements 'moreover' and 'ultimately'
wenzelm@10003
  7626
support accumulation of results, without applying any rules yet;
wenzelm@10003
  7627
useful to collect intermediate results without explicit name
wenzelm@10003
  7628
references, and for use with transitivity rules with more than 2
wenzelm@10003
  7629
premises;
wenzelm@8184
  7630
wenzelm@10003
  7631
* Isar/Pure: scalable support for case-analysis type proofs: new
wenzelm@10003
  7632
'case' language element refers to local contexts symbolically, as
wenzelm@10003
  7633
produced by certain proof methods; internally, case names are attached
wenzelm@10003
  7634
to theorems as "tags";
wenzelm@8440
  7635
wenzelm@10003
  7636
* Isar/Pure: theory command 'hide' removes declarations from
wenzelm@9330
  7637
class/type/const name spaces;
wenzelm@9330
  7638
wenzelm@10003
  7639
* Isar/Pure: theory command 'defs' supports option "(overloaded)" to
wenzelm@9330
  7640
indicate potential overloading;
wenzelm@9330
  7641
wenzelm@10003
  7642
* Isar/Pure: changed syntax of local blocks from {{ }} to { };
wenzelm@8921
  7643
wenzelm@10003
  7644
* Isar/Pure: syntax of sorts made 'inner', i.e. have to write
wenzelm@10003
  7645
"{a,b,c}" instead of {a,b,c};
wenzelm@9612
  7646
wenzelm@10003
  7647
* Isar/Pure now provides its own version of intro/elim/dest
wenzelm@10003
  7648
attributes; useful for building new logics, but beware of confusion
wenzelm@10003
  7649
with the version in Provers/classical;
wenzelm@8921
  7650
wenzelm@10003
  7651
* Isar/Pure: the local context of (non-atomic) goals is provided via
wenzelm@10003
  7652
case name 'antecedent';
wenzelm@8621
  7653
wenzelm@10003
  7654
* Isar/Pure: removed obsolete 'transfer' attribute (transfer of thms
wenzelm@10003
  7655
to the current context is now done automatically);
wenzelm@8991
  7656
wenzelm@10003
  7657
* Isar/Pure: theory command 'method_setup' provides a simple interface
wenzelm@10003
  7658
for definining proof methods in ML;
wenzelm@9011
  7659
wenzelm@10003
  7660
* Isar/Provers: intro/elim/dest attributes changed; renamed
wenzelm@9941
  7661
intro/intro!/intro!! flags to intro!/intro/intro? (INCOMPATIBILITY, in
wenzelm@9941
  7662
most cases, one should have to change intro!! to intro? only);
wenzelm@9941
  7663
replaced "delrule" by "rule del";
wenzelm@8283
  7664
wenzelm@10003
  7665
* Isar/Provers: new 'hypsubst' method, plain 'subst' method and
wenzelm@36856
  7666
'symmetric' attribute (the latter supercedes [RS sym]);
wenzelm@9612
  7667
wenzelm@10003
  7668
* Isar/Provers: splitter support (via 'split' attribute and 'simp'
wenzelm@10003
  7669
method modifier); 'simp' method: 'only:' modifier removes loopers as
wenzelm@10003
  7670
well (including splits);
wenzelm@10003
  7671
wenzelm@10003
  7672
* Isar/Provers: Simplifier and Classical methods now support all kind
wenzelm@10003
  7673
of modifiers used in the past, including 'cong', 'iff', etc.
wenzelm@10003
  7674
wenzelm@10003
  7675
* Isar/Provers: added 'fastsimp' and 'clarsimp' methods (combination
wenzelm@10003
  7676
of Simplifier and Classical reasoner);
wenzelm@10003
  7677
wenzelm@10003
  7678
* Isar/HOL: new proof method 'cases' and improved version of 'induct'
wenzelm@10003
  7679
now support named cases; major packages (inductive, datatype, primrec,
wenzelm@10003
  7680
recdef) support case names and properly name parameters;
wenzelm@10003
  7681
wenzelm@10003
  7682
* Isar/HOL: new transitivity rules for substitution in inequalities --
wenzelm@10003
  7683
monotonicity conditions are extracted to be proven at end of
wenzelm@10003
  7684
calculations;
wenzelm@10003
  7685
wenzelm@10003
  7686
* Isar/HOL: removed 'case_split' thm binding, should use 'cases' proof
wenzelm@10003
  7687
method anyway;
wenzelm@10003
  7688
wenzelm@10003
  7689
* Isar/HOL: removed old expand_if = split_if; theorems if_splits =
wenzelm@10003
  7690
split_if split_if_asm; datatype package provides theorems foo.splits =
wenzelm@10003
  7691
foo.split foo.split_asm for each datatype;
wenzelm@10003
  7692
wenzelm@10003
  7693
* Isar/HOL: tuned inductive package, rename "intrs" to "intros"
wenzelm@10003
  7694
(potential INCOMPATIBILITY), emulation of mk_cases feature for proof
wenzelm@10003
  7695
scripts: new 'inductive_cases' command and 'ind_cases' method; (Note:
wenzelm@10003
  7696
use "(cases (simplified))" method in proper proof texts);
wenzelm@10003
  7697
wenzelm@10003
  7698
* Isar/HOL: added global 'arith_split' attribute for 'arith' method;
wenzelm@10003
  7699
wenzelm@10003
  7700
* Isar: names of theorems etc. may be natural numbers as well;
wenzelm@10003
  7701
wenzelm@10003
  7702
* Isar: 'pr' command: optional arguments for goals_limit and
wenzelm@9724
  7703
ProofContext.prems_limit; no longer prints theory contexts, but only
wenzelm@9724
  7704
proof states;
wenzelm@8487
  7705
wenzelm@10003
  7706
* Isar: diagnostic commands 'pr', 'thm', 'prop', 'term', 'typ' admit
wenzelm@8518
  7707
additional print modes to be specified; e.g. "pr(latex)" will print
wenzelm@8518
  7708
proof state according to the Isabelle LaTeX style;
wenzelm@8487
  7709
wenzelm@10003
  7710
* Isar: improved support for emulating tactic scripts, including proof
wenzelm@9612
  7711
methods 'rule_tac' etc., 'cut_tac', 'thin_tac', 'subgoal_tac',
wenzelm@9612
  7712
'rename_tac', 'rotate_tac', 'tactic', and 'case_tac' / 'induct_tac'
wenzelm@9612
  7713
(for HOL datatypes);
wenzelm@8534
  7714
wenzelm@10003
  7715
* Isar: simplified (more robust) goal selection of proof methods: 1st
wenzelm@10003
  7716
goal, all goals, or explicit goal specifier (tactic emulation); thus
wenzelm@10003
  7717
'proof method scripts' have to be in depth-first order;
wenzelm@8673
  7718
wenzelm@10003
  7719
* Isar: tuned 'let' syntax: replaced 'as' keyword by 'and';
wenzelm@8729
  7720
wenzelm@10003
  7721
* Isar: removed 'help' command, which hasn't been too helpful anyway;
wenzelm@10003
  7722
should instead use individual commands for printing items
wenzelm@10003
  7723
(print_commands, print_methods etc.);
wenzelm@9224
  7724
wenzelm@10003
  7725
* Isar: added 'nothing' --- the empty list of theorems;

* HOL/MicroJava: formalization of a fragment of Java, together with a
wenzelm@10080
  7731
corresponding virtual machine and a specification of its bytecode
wenzelm@10080
  7732
verifier and a lightweight bytecode verifier, including proofs of

* HOL/Lattice: fundamental concepts of lattice theory and order
wenzelm@10157
  7745
structures, including duals, properties of bounds versus algebraic
wenzelm@10157
  7746
laws, lattice operations versus set-theoretic ones, the Knaster-Tarski

* HOL/IMPP: extension of IMP with local variables and mutually

  7755
recursive procedures, by David von Oheimb;
wenzelm@10164
  7756
wenzelm@10003
  7757
* HOL/Lambda: converted into new-style theory and document;
paulson@9542
  7758
wenzelm@10003
  7759
* HOL/ex/Multiquote: example of multiple nested quotations and
wenzelm@10003
  7760
anti-quotations -- basically a generalized version of de-Bruijn
wenzelm@10003
  7761
representation; very useful in avoiding lifting of operations;
wenzelm@8848
  7762
wenzelm@9612
  7763
* HOL/record: added general record equality rule to simpset; fixed
wenzelm@9612
  7764
select-update simplification procedure to handle extended records as
wenzelm@9612
  7765
well; admit "r" as field name;
paulson@9542
  7766
paulson@8967
  7767
* HOL: 0 is now overloaded over the new sort "zero", allowing its use with
paulson@8967
  7768
other numeric types and also as the identity of groups, rings, etc.;
paulson@8967
  7769
paulson@8967
  7770
* HOL: new axclass plus_ac0 for addition with the AC-laws and 0 as identity.
paulson@8967
  7771
Types nat and int belong to this axclass;
paulson@8967
  7772
wenzelm@10003
  7773
* HOL: greatly improved simplification involving numerals of type nat, int, real:
paulson@8788
  7774
   (i + #8 + j) = Suc k simplifies to  #7 + (i + j) = k
paulson@8832
  7775
   i*j + k + j*#3*i     simplifies to  #4*(i*j) + k
paulson@8832
  7776
  two terms #m*u and #n*u are replaced by #(m+n)*u
paulson@8832
  7777
    (where #m, #n and u can implicitly be 1; this is simproc combine_numerals)
paulson@8832
  7778
  and the term/formula #m*u+x ~~ #n*u+y simplifies simplifies to #(m-n)+x ~~ y
paulson@8832
  7779
    or x ~~ #(n-m)+y, where ~~ is one of = < <= or - (simproc cancel_numerals);
paulson@8736
  7780
wenzelm@10003
  7781
* HOL: meson_tac is available (previously in ex/meson.ML); it is a
wenzelm@10003
  7782
powerful prover for predicate logic but knows nothing of clasets; see
wenzelm@10003
  7783
ex/mesontest.ML and ex/mesontest2.ML for example applications;
paulson@9835
  7784
wenzelm@8848
  7785
* HOL: new version of "case_tac" subsumes both boolean case split and
wenzelm@8440
  7786
"exhaust_tac" on datatypes; INCOMPATIBILITY: exhaust_tac no longer
wenzelm@8518
  7787
exists, may define val exhaust_tac = case_tac for ad-hoc portability;
wenzelm@8440
  7788
wenzelm@8848
  7789
* HOL: simplification no longer dives into case-expressions: only the
wenzelm@10129
  7790
selector expression is simplified, but not the remaining arms; to
wenzelm@10129
  7791
enable full simplification of case-expressions for datatype t, you may
wenzelm@10129
  7792
remove t.weak_case_cong from the simpset, either globally (Delcongs
wenzelm@10129
  7793
[thm"t.weak_case_cong"];) or locally (delcongs [...]).
nipkow@8603
  7794
wenzelm@8848
  7795
* HOL/recdef: the recursion equations generated by 'recdef' for
wenzelm@8848
  7796
function 'f' are now called f.simps instead of f.rules; if all
wenzelm@8848
  7797
termination conditions are proved automatically, these simplification
wenzelm@8848
  7798
rules are added to the simpset, as in primrec; rules may be named
wenzelm@8848
  7799
individually as well, resulting in a separate list of theorems for
wenzelm@8848
  7800
each equation;
wenzelm@8848
  7801
wenzelm@9489
  7802
* HOL/While is a new theory that provides a while-combinator. It
wenzelm@9489
  7803
permits the definition of tail-recursive functions without the
wenzelm@9489
  7804
provision of a termination measure. The latter is necessary once the
wenzelm@9489
  7805
invariant proof rule for while is applied.
nipkow@9457
  7806
wenzelm@10003
  7807
* HOL: new (overloaded) notation for the set of elements below/above
wenzelm@10003

some element: {..u}, {..u(}, {l..}, {)l..}. See theory SetInterval.
nipkow@8925

wenzelm@8848
  7811
wenzelm@10003
  7812
* HOL: new tactic induct_thm_tac: thm -> string -> int -> tactic
nipkow@9746
  7813
induct_tac th "x1 ... xn" expects th to have a conclusion of the form
nipkow@9746
  7814

* HOL/Real: "rabs" replaced by overloaded "abs" function;
nipkow@9737

  7818
* HOL: theory Sexp now in HOL/Induct examples (it used to be part of
wenzelm@10003
  7819
main HOL, but was unused);
nipkow@8626
  7820
wenzelm@10003
  7821
* HOL: fewer consts declared as global (e.g. have to refer to
wenzelm@10003
  7822
"Lfp.lfp" instead of "lfp" internally; affects ML packages only);
wenzelm@8887
  7823
wenzelm@10003
  7824
* HOL: tuned AST representation of nested pairs, avoiding bogus output
wenzelm@10003
  7825
in case of overlap with user translations (e.g. judgements over
wenzelm@10003
  7826
tuples); (note that the underlying logical represenation is still
wenzelm@10003
  7827
bogus);

paulson@9542
  7831
wenzelm@10003
  7832
* ZF: simplification automatically cancels common terms in arithmetic
wenzelm@10003
  7833
expressions over nat and int;
paulson@9542
  7834
wenzelm@10003
  7835
* ZF: new treatment of nat to minimize type-checking: all operators
wenzelm@10003
  7836
coerce their operands to a natural number using the function natify,
wenzelm@10003
  7837
making the algebraic laws unconditional;
paulson@9542
  7838
wenzelm@10003
  7839
* ZF: as above, for int: operators coerce their operands to an integer
wenzelm@10003
  7840
using the function intify;
paulson@9542
  7841
wenzelm@10003
  7842
* ZF: the integer library now contains many of the usual laws for the
wenzelm@10003
  7843
orderings, including $<=, and monotonicity laws for $+ and $*;
paulson@9542
  7844
wenzelm@10003
  7845
* ZF: new example ZF/ex/NatSum to demonstrate integer arithmetic
wenzelm@10003
  7846
simplification;
paulson@9542
  7847
wenzelm@10003
  7848
* FOL and ZF: AddIffs now available, giving theorems of the form P<->Q
wenzelm@10003
  7849
to the simplifier and classical reasoner simultaneously;

assumptions; note that auto_tac uses blast_tac internally as well;
wenzelm@10003
  7856
wenzelm@10003
  7857
* Provers: new functions rulify/rulify_no_asm: thm -> thm for turning
wenzelm@10003

outer -->/All/Ball into ==>/!!; qed_spec_mp now uses rulify_no_asm;
wenzelm@10003
  7859
wenzelm@9941
  7860
* Provers: delrules now handles destruct rules as well (no longer need
wenzelm@9941
  7861
explicit make_elim);
wenzelm@9941
  7862
wenzelm@10003
  7863
* Provers: Blast_tac now warns of and ignores "weak elimination rules" e.g.
wenzelm@10003
  7864
  [| inj ?f;          ?f ?x = ?f ?y; ?x = ?y ==> ?W |] ==> ?W
wenzelm@10003

use instead the strong form,
wenzelm@10003
  7866
  [| inj ?f; ~ ?W ==> ?f ?x = ?f ?y; ?x = ?y ==> ?W |] ==> ?W
wenzelm@10003
  7867
in HOL, FOL and ZF the function cla_make_elim will create such rules
wenzelm@10003
  7868
from destruct-rules;

wenzelm@9709
  7882
* system: compression of ML heaps images may now be controlled via -c
wenzelm@9709
  7883
option of isabelle and isatool usedir (currently only observed by
wenzelm@9709
  7884
Poly/ML);
wenzelm@9709
  7885
wenzelm@9981
  7886
* system: isatool installfonts may handle X-Symbol fonts as well (very
wenzelm@9981
  7887
useful for remote X11);
wenzelm@9981
  7888
wenzelm@9709
  7889
* system: provide TAGS file for Isabelle sources;
wenzelm@9052
  7890
wenzelm@9288
  7891
* ML: infix 'OF' is a version of 'MRS' with more appropriate argument
wenzelm@9288
  7892
order;
wenzelm@9288
  7893
wenzelm@8994
  7894
* ML: renamed flags Syntax.trace_norm_ast to Syntax.trace_ast; global
wenzelm@8994
  7895
timing flag supersedes proof_timing and Toplevel.trace;
wenzelm@8994
  7896
wenzelm@10003
  7897
* ML: new combinators |>> and |>>> for incremental transformations
wenzelm@10003
  7898
with secondary results (e.g. certain theory extensions):
wenzelm@10003
  7899
wenzelm@9330
  7900
* ML: PureThy.add_defs gets additional argument to indicate potential
wenzelm@9330
  7901
overloading (usually false);
wenzelm@9330
  7902
wenzelm@10003
  7903
* ML: PureThy.add_thms/add_axioms/add_defs now return theorems as
wenzelm@10003
  7904
results;

*** Overview of INCOMPATIBILITIES (see below for more details) ***
paulson@5931
  7912
paulson@6922
  7913
* HOL: The THEN and ELSE parts of conditional expressions (if P then x else y)
paulson@6922
  7914
are no longer simplified.  (This allows the simplifier to unfold recursive
paulson@6922
  7915
functional programs.)  To restore the old behaviour, declare
wenzelm@7215
  7916
wenzelm@7215
  7917
    Delcongs [if_weak_cong];
paulson@6922
  7918
wenzelm@6269
  7919
* HOL: Removed the obsolete syntax "Compl A"; use -A for set
wenzelm@6269
  7920
complement;
paulson@5931
  7921
wenzelm@6269
  7922
* HOL: the predicate "inj" is now defined by translation to "inj_on";
paulson@6174
  7923
berghofe@7847
  7924
* HOL/datatype: mutual_induct_tac no longer exists --
berghofe@7847
  7925
  use induct_tac "x_1 ... x_n" instead of mutual_induct_tac ["x_1", ..., "x_n"]
berghofe@7847
  7926
wenzelm@6386
  7927
* HOL/typedef: fixed type inference for representing set; type
wenzelm@6386
  7928
arguments now have to occur explicitly on the rhs as type constraints;
wenzelm@6386
  7929
wenzelm@6269
  7930
* ZF: The con_defs part of an inductive definition may no longer refer
wenzelm@6269
  7931
to constants declared in the same theory;
nipkow@6057
  7932
wenzelm@6269
  7933
* HOL, ZF: the function mk_cases, generated by the inductive
wenzelm@6269
  7934
definition package, has lost an argument.  To simplify its result, it
wenzelm@6269
  7935
uses the default simpset instead of a supplied list of theorems.
paulson@6141
  7936
wenzelm@7215
  7937
* HOL/List: the constructors of type list are now Nil and Cons;
wenzelm@7215
  7938
nipkow@7619
  7939
* Simplifier: the type of the infix ML functions
wenzelm@8729
  7940
        setSSolver addSSolver setSolver addSolver
nipkow@7619
  7941
is now  simpset * solver -> simpset  where `solver' is a new abstract type
nipkow@7619
  7942
for packaging solvers. A solver is created via
wenzelm@8729
  7943
        mk_solver: string -> (thm list -> int -> tactic) -> solver
nipkow@7619
  7944
where the string argument is only a comment.

*** Proof tools ***
paulson@6069
  7948
wenzelm@6343
  7949
* Provers/Arith/fast_lin_arith.ML contains a functor for creating a
wenzelm@6343
  7950
decision procedure for linear arithmetic. Currently it is used for
wenzelm@7593
  7951
types `nat', `int', and `real' in HOL (see below); it can, should and
wenzelm@7593
  7952
will be instantiated for other types and logics as well.
paulson@6069
  7953
nipkow@7324
  7954
* The simplifier now accepts rewrite rules with flexible heads, eg
nipkow@7324
  7955
     hom ?f ==> ?f(?x+?y) = ?f ?x + ?f ?y
nipkow@7324
  7956
  They are applied like any rule with a non-pattern lhs, i.e. by first-order
nipkow@7324
  7957
  matching.

*** General ***
paulson@6014
  7961
wenzelm@7986
  7962
* New Isabelle/Isar subsystem provides an alternative to traditional
wenzelm@7215
  7963
tactical theorem proving; together with the ProofGeneral/isar user
wenzelm@7215
  7964
interface it offers an interactive environment for developing human
wenzelm@7215
  7965
readable proof documents (Isar == Intelligible semi-automated
wenzelm@7886
  7966
reasoning); for further information see isatool doc isar-ref,
wenzelm@7986
  7967
src/HOL/Isar_examples and http://isabelle.in.tum.de/Isar/
wenzelm@7886
  7968
wenzelm@9612
  7969
* improved and simplified presentation of theories: better HTML markup
wenzelm@9612
  7970
(including colors), graph views in several sizes; isatool usedir now
wenzelm@9612
  7971
provides a proper interface for user theories (via -P option); actual
wenzelm@9612
  7972
document preparation based on (PDF)LaTeX is available as well (for
wenzelm@9612
  7973
new-style theories only); see isatool doc system for more information;
wenzelm@7215
  7974
wenzelm@7252
  7975
* native support for Proof General, both for classic Isabelle and
wenzelm@7986
  7976
Isabelle/Isar;
wenzelm@7215
  7977
wenzelm@7791
  7978
* ML function thm_deps visualizes dependencies of theorems and lemmas,
wenzelm@7791
  7979
using the graph browser tool;
wenzelm@7791
  7980
wenzelm@6751
  7981
* Isabelle manuals now also available as PDF;
wenzelm@6751
  7982
wenzelm@6449
  7983
* theory loader rewritten from scratch (may not be fully
wenzelm@6449
  7984
bug-compatible); old loadpath variable has been replaced by show_path,
wenzelm@6671
  7985
add_path, del_path, reset_path functions; new operations such as
wenzelm@7593
  7986
update_thy, touch_thy, remove_thy, use/update_thy_only (see also
wenzelm@7593
  7987
isatool doc ref);
wenzelm@6449
  7988
wenzelm@7215
  7989
* improved isatool install: option -k creates KDE application icon,
wenzelm@7215
  7990
option -p DIR installs standalone binaries;
wenzelm@7215
  7991
wenzelm@7215
  7992
* added ML_PLATFORM setting (useful for cross-platform installations);
wenzelm@7215
  7993
more robust handling of platform specific ML images for SML/NJ;
wenzelm@7215
  7994
wenzelm@7886
  7995
* the settings environment is now statically scoped, i.e. it is never
wenzelm@7986
  7996
created again in sub-processes invoked from isabelle, isatool, or
wenzelm@7886
  7997
Isabelle;
wenzelm@7886
  7998
wenzelm@7215
  7999
* path element specification '~~' refers to '$ISABELLE_HOME';
wenzelm@7215
  8000
wenzelm@6343
  8001
* in locales, the "assumes" and "defines" parts may be omitted if
wenzelm@6343
  8002
empty;
wenzelm@5973
  8003
wenzelm@6269
  8004
* new print_mode "xsymbols" for extended symbol support (e.g. genuine
wenzelm@6269
  8005
long arrows);
wenzelm@6259
  8006
wenzelm@6343
  8007
* new print_mode "HTML";
wenzelm@6343
  8008
wenzelm@6343
  8009
* new flag show_tags controls display of tags of theorems (which are
wenzelm@6343
  8010
basically just comments that may be attached by some tools);
wenzelm@6343
  8011
wenzelm@6461
  8012
* Isamode 2.6 requires patch to accomodate change of Isabelle font
wenzelm@6461
  8013
mode and goal output format:
wenzelm@6461
  8014
wenzelm@6461

wenzelm@6461
  8025
wenzelm@7450
  8026
* function bind_thms stores lists of theorems (cf. bind_thm);
wenzelm@7450
  8027
wenzelm@7593
  8028
* new shorthand tactics ftac, eatac, datac, fatac;
wenzelm@7593
  8029
wenzelm@7593
  8030
* qed (and friends) now accept "" as result name; in that case the
wenzelm@7986
  8031
theorem is not stored, but proper checks and presentation of the
wenzelm@7986
  8032
result still apply;
wenzelm@7593
  8033
wenzelm@7805
  8034
* theorem database now also indexes constants "Trueprop", "all",
wenzelm@7805
  8035
"==>", "=="; thus thms_containing, findI etc. may retrieve more rules;

  8040
** HOL arithmetic **
wenzelm@7215
  8041
wenzelm@6343
  8042
* There are now decision procedures for linear arithmetic over nat and
wenzelm@6343
  8043
int:
nipkow@6131
  8044
wenzelm@6343
  8045
1. arith_tac copes with arbitrary formulae involving `=', `<', `<=',
wenzelm@6343
  8046
`+', `-', `Suc', `min', `max' and numerical constants; other subterms
wenzelm@6343
  8047
are treated as atomic; subformulae not involving type `nat' or `int'
wenzelm@6343
  8048
are ignored; quantified subformulae are ignored unless they are
wenzelm@6343
  8049
positive universal or negative existential. The tactic has to be
wenzelm@6343
  8050
invoked by hand and can be a little bit slow. In particular, the
wenzelm@6343
  8051
running time is exponential in the number of occurrences of `min' and
wenzelm@6343
  8052
`max', and `-' on `nat'.
nipkow@6131
  8053
wenzelm@6343
  8054
2. fast_arith_tac is a cut-down version of arith_tac: it only takes
wenzelm@6343
  8055
(negated) (in)equalities among the premises and the conclusion into
wenzelm@6343
  8056
account (i.e. no compound formulae) and does not know about `min' and
wenzelm@6343
  8057
`max', and `-' on `nat'. It is fast and is used automatically by the
wenzelm@6343
  8058
simplifier.
nipkow@6131
  8059
wenzelm@6343
  8060
NB: At the moment, these decision procedures do not cope with mixed
wenzelm@6343
  8061
nat/int formulae where the two parts interact, such as `m < n ==>
wenzelm@6343
  8062
int(m) < int(n)'.
oheimb@6028
  8063
wenzelm@7215
  8064
* HOL/Numeral provides a generic theory of numerals (encoded
wenzelm@7313
  8065
efficiently as bit strings); setup for types nat/int/real is in place;
wenzelm@7215
  8066
INCOMPATIBILITY: since numeral syntax is now polymorphic, rather than
wenzelm@7215
  8067
int, existing theories and proof scripts may require a few additional
wenzelm@7215
  8068
type constraints;
paulson@7157
  8069
wenzelm@7215
  8070
* integer division and remainder can now be performed on constant
wenzelm@7215
  8071
arguments;
paulson@6922
  8072
wenzelm@7215
  8073
* many properties of integer multiplication, division and remainder
wenzelm@7215
  8074
are now available;
wenzelm@7215
  8075
paulson@7287
  8076
* An interface to the Stanford Validity Checker (SVC) is available through the
paulson@7287
  8077
tactic svc_tac.  Propositional tautologies and theorems of linear arithmetic
paulson@7287
  8078
are proved automatically.  SVC must be installed separately, and its results
paulson@7287
  8079
must be TAKEN ON TRUST (Isabelle does not check the proofs, but tags any
paulson@7287
  8080
invocation of the underlying oracle).  For SVC see
paulson@7444
  8081
  http://verify.stanford.edu/SVC
paulson@6922
  8082
wenzelm@7125

  8089
(in Isabelle/Isar) -- by Gertrud Bauer;
wenzelm@7595
  8090
wenzelm@7691
  8091
* HOL/BCV: generic model of bytecode verification, i.e. data-flow
wenzelm@7691
  8092
analysis for assembly languages with subtypes;
wenzelm@7691
  8093
wenzelm@6278
  8094
* HOL/TLA (Lamport's Temporal Logic of Actions): major reorganization
wenzelm@6278
  8095
-- avoids syntactic ambiguities and treats state, transition, and
wenzelm@6278
  8096
temporal levels more uniformly; introduces INCOMPATIBILITIES due to
wenzelm@6278
  8097
changed syntax and (many) tactics;
wenzelm@6278
  8098
wenzelm@7791
  8099
* HOL/inductive: Now also handles more general introduction rules such
wenzelm@7791
  8100
  as "ALL y. (y, x) : r --> y : acc r ==> x : acc r"; monotonicity
wenzelm@7791
  8101
  theorems are now maintained within the theory (maintained via the
wenzelm@7791
  8102
  "mono" attribute);
berghofe@7780
  8103
wenzelm@7238
  8104
* HOL/datatype: Now also handles arbitrarily branching datatypes
wenzelm@7238
  8105
  (using function types) such as
wenzelm@7238
  8106
wenzelm@7238
  8107
  datatype 'a tree = Atom 'a | Branch "nat => 'a tree"
berghofe@7047

wenzelm@7326
  8109
* HOL/record: record_simproc (part of the default simpset) takes care
wenzelm@7326
  8110
of selectors applied to updated records; record_split_tac is no longer
wenzelm@7327
  8111
part of the default claset; update_defs may now be removed from the
wenzelm@7327
  8112
simpset in many cases; COMPATIBILITY: old behavior achieved by
wenzelm@7326
  8113
wenzelm@7326
  8114
  claset_ref () := claset() addSWrapper record_split_wrapper;

  8115
  Delsimprocs [record_simproc]
wenzelm@7326
  8116
wenzelm@6386
  8117
* HOL/typedef: fixed type inference for representing set; type
wenzelm@6386
  8118
arguments now have to occur explicitly on the rhs as type constraints;
wenzelm@6386
  8119
paulson@7287
  8120
* HOL/recdef (TFL): 'congs' syntax now expects comma separated list of theorem
paulson@7287
  8121
names rather than an ML expression;
paulson@7287
  8122
paulson@7287
  8123
* HOL/defer_recdef (TFL): like recdef but the well-founded relation can be
paulson@7287
  8124
supplied later.  Program schemes can be defined, such as
paulson@7287
  8125
    "While B C s = (if B s then While B C (C s) else s)"
paulson@7287
  8126
where the well-founded relation can be chosen after B and C have been given.
wenzelm@6563
  8127
wenzelm@7215
  8128
* HOL/List: the constructors of type list are now Nil and Cons;
wenzelm@7215
  8129
INCOMPATIBILITY: while [] and infix # syntax is still there, of
wenzelm@7215
  8130
course, ML tools referring to List.list.op # etc. have to be adapted;
wenzelm@7215
  8131
wenzelm@7238
  8132
* HOL_quantifiers flag superseded by "HOL" print mode, which is
wenzelm@7238
  8133
disabled by default; run isabelle with option -m HOL to get back to
wenzelm@7238
  8134
the original Gordon/HOL-style output;
wenzelm@7238
  8135
wenzelm@7238
  8136
* HOL/Ord.thy: new bounded quantifier syntax (input only): ALL x<y. P,
wenzelm@7238
  8137
ALL x<=y. P, EX x<y. P, EX x<=y. P;
wenzelm@7238
  8138
wenzelm@7238
  8139
* HOL basic syntax simplified (more orthogonal): all variants of
wenzelm@7238
  8140
All/Ex now support plain / symbolic / HOL notation; plain syntax for
wenzelm@7238
  8141
Eps operator is provided as well: "SOME x. P[x]";
wenzelm@7238
  8142
berghofe@7320
  8143
* HOL/Sum.thy: sum_case has been moved to HOL/Datatype;
wenzelm@7261
  8144
wenzelm@7280
  8145
* HOL/Univ.thy: infix syntax <*>, <+>, <**>, <+> eliminated and made
wenzelm@7280
  8146
thus available for user theories;
wenzelm@7280
  8147
wenzelm@7300
  8148
* HOLCF/IOA/Sequents: renamed 'Cons' to 'Consq' to avoid clash with
wenzelm@7300
  8149
HOL/List; hardly an INCOMPATIBILITY since '>>' syntax is used all the
wenzelm@7300
  8150
time;
wenzelm@7300
  8151
wenzelm@7986
  8152

  8170
* new primrec section allows primitive recursive functions to be given
wenzelm@6269
  8171
directly (as in HOL) over datatypes and the natural numbers;
paulson@6064
  8172
wenzelm@6269
  8173
* new tactics induct_tac and exhaust_tac for induction (or case
wenzelm@6269
  8174
analysis) over datatypes and the natural numbers;
paulson@6064
  8175
paulson@6064
  8176
* the datatype declaration of type T now defines the recursor T_rec;
paulson@6064
  8177
paulson@6141
  8178
* simplification automatically does freeness reasoning for datatype
wenzelm@6269
  8179
constructors;
paulson@6141
  8180
wenzelm@6269
  8181
* automatic type-inference, with AddTCs command to insert new
wenzelm@6269
  8182
type-checking rules;
paulson@6155
  8183
wenzelm@6269
  8184
* datatype introduction rules are now added as Safe Introduction rules
wenzelm@6269
  8185
to the claset;
paulson@6155
  8186
wenzelm@6269
  8187
* the syntax "if P then x else y" is now available in addition to
wenzelm@6269

*** Internal programming interfaces ***
wenzelm@6343
  8192
wenzelm@7919
  8193
* tuned simplifier trace output; new flag debug_simp;
wenzelm@7919
  8194
wenzelm@7420
  8195
* structures Vartab / Termtab (instances of TableFun) offer efficient
wenzelm@7420
  8196
tables indexed by indexname_ord / term_ord (compatible with aconv);
wenzelm@7420
  8197
wenzelm@6386
  8198
* AxClass.axclass_tac lost the theory argument;
wenzelm@6386
  8199
wenzelm@6343
  8200
* tuned current_goals_markers semantics: begin / end goal avoids
wenzelm@6343
  8201
printing empty lines;
wenzelm@6343
  8202
wenzelm@6343
  8203
* removed prs and prs_fn hook, which was broken because it did not
wenzelm@6343
  8204
include \n in its semantics, forcing writeln to add one
wenzelm@6343
  8205
uncoditionally; replaced prs_fn by writeln_fn; consider std_output:
wenzelm@6343
  8206
string -> unit if you really want to output text without newline;
wenzelm@6343
  8207
wenzelm@6343
  8208
* Symbol.output subject to print mode; INCOMPATIBILITY: defaults to
wenzelm@6343
  8209
plain output, interface builders may have to enable 'isabelle_font'
wenzelm@6343
  8210
mode to get Isabelle font glyphs as before;
wenzelm@6343
  8211
wenzelm@6343
  8212
* refined token_translation interface; INCOMPATIBILITY: output length
wenzelm@6343
  8213
now of type real instead of int;
wenzelm@6343
  8214
wenzelm@7196
  8215
* theory loader actions may be traced via new ThyInfo.add_hook
wenzelm@7196
  8216
interface (see src/Pure/Thy/thy_info.ML); example application: keep
wenzelm@7196
  8217
your own database of information attached to *whole* theories -- as
wenzelm@7196
  8218
opposed to intra-theory data slots offered via TheoryDataFun;
wenzelm@7196
  8219
wenzelm@7647
  8220
* proper handling of dangling sort hypotheses (at last!);
wenzelm@7647
  8221
Thm.strip_shyps and Drule.strip_shyps_warning take care of removing
wenzelm@7647
  8222
extra sort hypotheses that can be witnessed from the type signature;
wenzelm@7986
  8223
the force_strip_shyps flag is gone, any remaining shyps are simply
wenzelm@7986
  8224
left in the theorem (with a warning issued by strip_shyps_warning);

  8231
*** Overview of INCOMPATIBILITIES (see below for more details) ***
wenzelm@4842
  8232
wenzelm@5726
  8233
* several changes of automated proof tools;
wenzelm@5207
  8234
wenzelm@5726
  8235
* HOL: major changes to the inductive and datatype packages, including
wenzelm@5726
  8236
some minor incompatibilities of theory syntax;
wenzelm@5373
  8237
wenzelm@5726
  8238
* HOL: renamed r^-1 to 'converse' from 'inverse'; 'inj_onto' is now
wenzelm@5217
  8239
called `inj_on';
paulson@5160
  8240
nipkow@5275
  8241
* HOL: removed duplicate thms in Arith:
nipkow@5275
  8242
  less_imp_add_less  should be replaced by  trans_less_add1
nipkow@5275
  8243
  le_imp_add_le      should be replaced by  trans_le_add1
paulson@5160
  8244
wenzelm@5726
  8245
* HOL: unary minus is now overloaded (new type constraints may be
wenzelm@5726
  8246
required);
paulson@5490
  8247
wenzelm@5726
  8248
* HOL and ZF: unary minus for integers is now #- instead of #~.  In
wenzelm@5726
  8249
ZF, expressions such as n#-1 must be changed to n#- 1, since #-1 is
wenzelm@5726
  8250
now taken as an integer constant.
paulson@5541
  8251
wenzelm@5726
  8252
* Pure: ML function 'theory_of' renamed to 'theory';
wenzelm@5397
  8253
wenzelm@5363
  8254
wenzelm@5127
  8255
*** Proof tools ***
nipkow@4880
  8256
nipkow@5657
  8257
* Simplifier:
nipkow@5657
  8258
  1. Asm_full_simp_tac is now more aggressive.
nipkow@5657
  8259
     1. It will sometimes reorient premises if that increases their power to
nipkow@5657
  8260
        simplify.
nipkow@5657
  8261
     2. It does no longer proceed strictly from left to right but may also
nipkow@5657
  8262
        rotate premises to achieve further simplification.
nipkow@5657
  8263
     For compatibility reasons there is now Asm_lr_simp_tac which is like the
nipkow@5657
  8264
     old Asm_full_simp_tac in that it does not rotate premises.
nipkow@5657
  8265
  2. The simplifier now knows a little bit about nat-arithmetic.
nipkow@4880
  8266
wenzelm@5127
  8267
* Classical reasoner: wrapper mechanism for the classical reasoner now
wenzelm@5127
  8268
allows for selected deletion of wrappers, by introduction of names for
wenzelm@5127
  8269
wrapper functionals.  This implies that addbefore, addSbefore,
wenzelm@5127
  8270
addaltern, and addSaltern now take a pair (name, tactic) as argument,
wenzelm@5127
  8271
and that adding two tactics with the same name overwrites the first
wenzelm@5127
  8272
one (emitting a warning).
oheimb@4824
  8273
  type wrapper = (int -> tactic) -> (int -> tactic)
oheimb@4649
  8274
  setWrapper, setSWrapper, compWrapper and compSWrapper are replaced by
oheimb@4824
  8275
  addWrapper, addSWrapper: claset * (string * wrapper) -> claset
oheimb@4824
  8276
  delWrapper, delSWrapper: claset *  string            -> claset
oheimb@4649
  8277
  getWrapper is renamed to appWrappers, getSWrapper to appSWrappers;
oheimb@4649
  8278
wenzelm@5705
  8279
* Classical reasoner: addbefore/addSbefore now have APPEND/ORELSE
wenzelm@5726
  8280
semantics; addbefore now affects only the unsafe part of step_tac
wenzelm@5726
  8281
etc.; this affects addss/auto_tac/force_tac, so EXISTING PROOFS MAY
wenzelm@5726
  8282
FAIL, but proofs should be fixable easily, e.g. by replacing Auto_tac
wenzelm@5726
  8283
by Force_tac;
oheimb@5524
  8284
wenzelm@5726
  8285
* Classical reasoner: setwrapper to setWrapper and compwrapper to
wenzelm@5726
  8286
compWrapper; added safe wrapper (and access functions for it);
oheimb@5524
  8287
wenzelm@5127
  8288
* HOL/split_all_tac is now much faster and fails if there is nothing
wenzelm@5726
  8289
to split.  Some EXISTING PROOFS MAY REQUIRE ADAPTION because the order
wenzelm@5726
  8290
and the names of the automatically generated variables have changed.
wenzelm@5726
  8291
split_all_tac has moved within claset() from unsafe wrappers to safe
wenzelm@5726
  8292
wrappers, which means that !!-bound variables are split much more
wenzelm@5726
  8293
aggressively, and safe_tac and clarify_tac now split such variables.
wenzelm@5726
  8294
If this splitting is not appropriate, use delSWrapper "split_all_tac".
wenzelm@5726
  8295
Note: the same holds for record_split_tac, which does the job of
wenzelm@5726
  8296
split_all_tac for record fields.
wenzelm@5127
  8297
wenzelm@5726
  8298
* HOL/Simplifier: Rewrite rules for case distinctions can now be added
wenzelm@5726
  8299
permanently to the default simpset using Addsplits just like
wenzelm@5726
  8300
Addsimps. They can be removed via Delsplits just like
wenzelm@5726
  8301
Delsimps. Lower-case versions are also available.
wenzelm@5127
  8302
wenzelm@5726
  8303
* HOL/Simplifier: The rule split_if is now part of the default
wenzelm@5726
  8304
simpset. This means that the simplifier will eliminate all occurrences
wenzelm@5726
  8305
of if-then-else in the conclusion of a goal. To prevent this, you can
wenzelm@5726
  8306
either remove split_if completely from the default simpset by
wenzelm@5726
  8307
`Delsplits [split_if]' or remove it in a specific call of the
wenzelm@5726
  8308
simplifier using `... delsplits [split_if]'.  You can also add/delete
wenzelm@5726
  8309
other case splitting rules to/from the default simpset: every datatype
wenzelm@5726
  8310
generates suitable rules `split_t_case' and `split_t_case_asm' (where
wenzelm@5726
  8311
t is the name of the datatype).
wenzelm@5127
  8312
wenzelm@5726
  8313
* Classical reasoner / Simplifier combination: new force_tac (and
wenzelm@5127
  8314
derivatives Force_tac, force) combines rewriting and classical
wenzelm@5127
  8315
reasoning (and whatever other tools) similarly to auto_tac, but is
wenzelm@5726
  8316
aimed to solve the given subgoal completely.
wenzelm@5127

  8318
wenzelm@5127
  8319
*** General ***
wenzelm@5127
  8320
wenzelm@5217
  8321
* new top-level commands `Goal' and `Goalw' that improve upon `goal'
wenzelm@5127
  8322
and `goalw': the theory is no longer needed as an explicit argument -
wenzelm@5127
  8323
the current theory context is used; assumptions are no longer returned
wenzelm@5127
  8324
at the ML-level unless one of them starts with ==> or !!; it is
wenzelm@5217
  8325
recommended to convert to these new commands using isatool fixgoal
wenzelm@5217
  8326
(backup your sources first!);
wenzelm@4842
  8327
wenzelm@5217
  8328
* new top-level commands 'thm' and 'thms' for retrieving theorems from
wenzelm@5207
  8329
the current theory context, and 'theory' to lookup stored theories;
paulson@4806
  8330
paulson@5722
  8331
* new theory section 'locale' for declaring constants, assumptions and
paulson@5722
  8332
definitions that have local scope;
paulson@5722
  8333
wenzelm@5127
  8334
* new theory section 'nonterminals' for purely syntactic types;
wenzelm@4858
  8335
wenzelm@5127
  8336
* new theory section 'setup' for generic ML setup functions
wenzelm@5127
  8337
(e.g. package initialization);
wenzelm@4869
  8338
wenzelm@5131
  8339
* the distribution now includes Isabelle icons: see
wenzelm@5131
  8340
lib/logo/isabelle-{small,tiny}.xpm;
wenzelm@5131
  8341
wenzelm@5363
  8342
* isatool install - install binaries with absolute references to
wenzelm@5363
  8343
ISABELLE_HOME/bin;
wenzelm@5363
  8344
wenzelm@5572
  8345
* isatool logo -- create instances of the Isabelle logo (as EPS);
wenzelm@5572
  8346
wenzelm@5407
  8347
* print mode 'emacs' reserved for Isamode;
wenzelm@5407
  8348
wenzelm@5726
  8349
* support multiple print (ast) translations per constant name;
wenzelm@5726
  8350
wenzelm@6925
  8351
* theorems involving oracles are now printed with a suffixed [!];
wenzelm@6925

paulson@4661
  8354
*** HOL ***
paulson@4661
  8355
wenzelm@5710
  8356
* there is now a tutorial on Isabelle/HOL (do 'isatool doc tutorial');
nipkow@5709
  8357
wenzelm@5217
  8358
* HOL/inductive package reorganized and improved: now supports mutual
paulson@5267
  8359
definitions such as
berghofe@5214
  8360
wenzelm@5217
  8361
  inductive EVEN ODD
wenzelm@5217
  8362
    intrs
wenzelm@5217
  8363
      null "0 : EVEN"
wenzelm@5217
  8364
      oddI "n : EVEN ==> Suc n : ODD"
wenzelm@5217
  8365
      evenI "n : ODD ==> Suc n : EVEN"
berghofe@5214
  8366
wenzelm@5217
  8367
new theorem list "elims" contains an elimination rule for each of the
wenzelm@5217
  8368
recursive sets; inductive definitions now handle disjunctive premises
wenzelm@5217
  8369
correctly (also ZF);
berghofe@5214
  8370
wenzelm@5217
  8371
INCOMPATIBILITIES: requires Inductive as an ancestor; component
wenzelm@5217
  8372
"mutual_induct" no longer exists - the induction rule is always
wenzelm@5217
  8373
contained in "induct";
berghofe@5214
  8374
berghofe@5214
  8375
wenzelm@5217
  8376
* HOL/datatype package re-implemented and greatly improved: now
paulson@5267
  8377
supports mutually recursive datatypes such as
berghofe@5214
  8378
wenzelm@5217
  8379
  datatype
wenzelm@5217
  8380
    'a aexp = IF_THEN_ELSE ('a bexp) ('a aexp) ('a aexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8381
            | SUM ('a aexp) ('a aexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8382
            | DIFF ('a aexp) ('a aexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8383
            | NUM 'a
wenzelm@5217
  8384
  and
wenzelm@5217
  8385
    'a bexp = LESS ('a aexp) ('a aexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8386
            | AND ('a bexp) ('a bexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8387
            | OR ('a bexp) ('a bexp)
wenzelm@5217
  8388
paulson@5267
  8389
as well as indirectly recursive datatypes such as
wenzelm@5217
  8390
wenzelm@5217
  8391
  datatype
wenzelm@5217
  8392
    ('a, 'b) term = Var 'a
wenzelm@5217
  8393
                  | App 'b ((('a, 'b) term) list)
wenzelm@5217
  8394
wenzelm@5217
  8395
The new tactic  mutual_induct_tac [<var_1>, ..., <var_n>] i  performs
wenzelm@5217
  8396
induction on mutually / indirectly recursive datatypes.
wenzelm@5217
  8397
wenzelm@5217
  8398
Primrec equations are now stored in theory and can be accessed via
wenzelm@5217
  8399
<function_name>.simps.
wenzelm@5217
  8400
wenzelm@5217
  8401
INCOMPATIBILITIES:
wenzelm@5217
  8402
wenzelm@5217
  8403
  - Theories using datatypes must now have theory Datatype as an
wenzelm@5217
  8404
    ancestor.
wenzelm@5217
  8405
  - The specific <typename>.induct_tac no longer exists - use the
wenzelm@5217
  8406
    generic induct_tac instead.
berghofe@5226
  8407
  - natE has been renamed to nat.exhaust - use exhaust_tac
wenzelm@5217
  8408
    instead of res_inst_tac ... natE. Note that the variable
berghofe@5226
  8409
    names in nat.exhaust differ from the names in natE, this
wenzelm@5217
  8410
    may cause some "fragile" proofs to fail.
wenzelm@5217
  8411
  - The theorems split_<typename>_case and split_<typename>_case_asm
wenzelm@5217
  8412
    have been renamed to <typename>.split and <typename>.split_asm.
wenzelm@5217
  8413
  - Since default sorts of type variables are now handled correctly,
wenzelm@5217
  8414
    some datatype definitions may have to be annotated with explicit
wenzelm@5217
  8415
    sort constraints.
wenzelm@5217
  8416
  - Primrec definitions no longer require function name and type
wenzelm@5217
  8417
    of recursive argument.
wenzelm@5217
  8418
wenzelm@5217
  8419
Consider using isatool fixdatatype to adapt your theories and proof
wenzelm@5217
  8420
scripts to the new package (backup your sources first!).
wenzelm@5217
  8421
wenzelm@5217
  8422
wenzelm@5726
  8423
* HOL/record package: considerably improved implementation; now
wenzelm@5726
  8424
includes concrete syntax for record types, terms, updates; theorems
wenzelm@5726
  8425
for surjective pairing and splitting !!-bound record variables; proof
wenzelm@5726
  8426
support is as follows:
wenzelm@5726
  8427
wenzelm@5726
  8428
  1) standard conversions (selectors or updates applied to record
wenzelm@5726
  8429
constructor terms) are part of the standard simpset;
wenzelm@5726
  8430
wenzelm@5726
  8431
  2) inject equations of the form ((x, y) = (x', y')) == x=x' & y=y' are
wenzelm@5726
  8432
made part of standard simpset and claset via addIffs;
wenzelm@5726
  8433
wenzelm@5726
  8434
  3) a tactic for record field splitting (record_split_tac) is part of
wenzelm@5726
  8435
the standard claset (addSWrapper);
wenzelm@5726
  8436
wenzelm@5726
  8437
To get a better idea about these rules you may retrieve them via
wenzelm@5726
  8438
something like 'thms "foo.simps"' or 'thms "foo.iffs"', where "foo" is
wenzelm@5726
  8439
the name of your record type.
wenzelm@5726
  8440
wenzelm@5726
  8441
The split tactic 3) conceptually simplifies by the following rule:
wenzelm@5726
  8442
wenzelm@5726
  8443
  "(!!x. PROP ?P x) == (!!a b. PROP ?P (a, b))"
wenzelm@5726
  8444
wenzelm@5726
  8445
Thus any record variable that is bound by meta-all will automatically
wenzelm@5726
  8446
blow up into some record constructor term, consequently the
wenzelm@5726
  8447
simplifications of 1), 2) apply.  Thus force_tac, auto_tac etc. shall
wenzelm@5726
  8448
solve record problems automatically.
wenzelm@5726

* reorganized the main HOL image: HOL/Integ and String loaded by
wenzelm@5125
  8452
default; theory Main includes everything;
wenzelm@5125
  8453
paulson@5650
  8454
* automatic simplification of integer sums and comparisons, using cancellation;
paulson@5650
  8455
oheimb@5526
  8456
* added option_map_eq_Some and not_Some_eq to the default simpset and claset;
wenzelm@5125
  8457
wenzelm@5127
  8458
* added disj_not1 = "(~P | Q) = (P --> Q)" to the default simpset;
wenzelm@5125
  8459
wenzelm@5127
  8460
* many new identities for unions, intersections, set difference, etc.;
wenzelm@5127
  8461
wenzelm@5127
  8462
* expand_if, expand_split, expand_sum_case and expand_nat_case are now
wenzelm@5127
  8463
called split_if, split_split, split_sum_case and split_nat_case (to go
wenzelm@5127
  8464
with add/delsplits);
wenzelm@5127
  8465
wenzelm@5127
  8466
* HOL/Prod introduces simplification procedure unit_eq_proc rewriting
wenzelm@5127
  8467
(?x::unit) = (); this is made part of the default simpset, which COULD
wenzelm@5127
  8468
MAKE EXISTING PROOFS FAIL under rare circumstances (consider
wenzelm@5207
  8469
'Delsimprocs [unit_eq_proc];' as last resort); also note that
wenzelm@5207
  8470
unit_abs_eta_conv is added in order to counter the effect of
wenzelm@5207
  8471
unit_eq_proc on (%u::unit. f u), replacing it by f rather than by
wenzelm@5207
  8472
%u.f();
wenzelm@5127
  8473
wenzelm@5217
  8474
* HOL/Fun INCOMPATIBILITY: `inj_onto' is now called `inj_on' (which
wenzelm@5217
  8475
makes more sense);
wenzelm@5127
  8476
paulson@5475
  8477
* HOL/Set INCOMPATIBILITY: rule `equals0D' is now a well-formed destruct rule;
paulson@5475
  8478
  It and 'sym RS equals0D' are now in the default  claset, giving automatic
paulson@5475
  8479
  disjointness reasoning but breaking a few old proofs.
paulson@5267
  8480
wenzelm@5217
  8481
* HOL/Relation INCOMPATIBILITY: renamed the relational operator r^-1
wenzelm@5217
  8482
to 'converse' from 'inverse' (for compatibility with ZF and some
wenzelm@5217
  8483
literature);
berghofe@5109
  8484
wenzelm@5127
  8485
* HOL/recdef can now declare non-recursive functions, with {} supplied as
wenzelm@5127
  8486
the well-founded relation;
wenzelm@5085
  8487
paulson@5490
  8488
* HOL/Set INCOMPATIBILITY: the complement of set A is now written -A instead of
paulson@5490
  8489
    Compl A.  The "Compl" syntax remains available as input syntax for this
paulson@5490
  8490
    release ONLY.
paulson@5490
  8491
wenzelm@5127
  8492
* HOL/Update: new theory of function updates:
wenzelm@5127
  8493
    f(a:=b) == %x. if x=a then b else f x
wenzelm@5127
  8494
may also be iterated as in f(a:=b,c:=d,...);
oheimb@4824
  8495
wenzelm@5127
  8496
* HOL/Vimage: new theory for inverse image of a function, syntax f-``B;
paulson@4899
  8497
nipkow@5282
  8498
* HOL/List:
nipkow@5282
  8499
  - new function list_update written xs[i:=v] that updates the i-th
nipkow@5282
  8500
    list position. May also be iterated as in xs[i:=a,j:=b,...].
nipkow@5428
  8501
  - new function `upt' written [i..j(] which generates the list
nipkow@5428
  8502
    [i,i+1,...,j-1], i.e. the upper bound is excluded. To include the upper
nipkow@5428
  8503
    bound write [i..j], which is a shorthand for [i..j+1(].
nipkow@5282
  8504
  - new lexicographic orderings and corresponding wellfoundedness theorems.
paulson@4779
  8505
wenzelm@5127
  8506
* HOL/Arith:
wenzelm@5127
  8507
  - removed 'pred' (predecessor) function;
wenzelm@5127
  8508
  - generalized some theorems about n-1;
wenzelm@5127
  8509
  - many new laws about "div" and "mod";
wenzelm@5127
  8510
  - new laws about greatest common divisors (see theory ex/Primes);
oheimb@4766
  8511
wenzelm@5127
  8512
* HOL/Relation: renamed the relational operator r^-1 "converse"
wenzelm@4842
  8513
instead of "inverse";
wenzelm@4711
  8514
nipkow@5651
  8515
* HOL/Induct/Multiset: a theory of multisets, including the wellfoundedness
nipkow@5651
  8516
  of the multiset ordering;
nipkow@5651
  8517
wenzelm@5127
  8518
* directory HOL/Real: a construction of the reals using Dedekind cuts
nipkow@5651
  8519
  (not included by default);
paulson@4806
  8520
wenzelm@5127
  8521
* directory HOL/UNITY: Chandy and Misra's UNITY formalism;
wenzelm@4711
  8522
nipkow@5651
  8523
* directory HOL/Hoare: a new version of Hoare logic which permits many-sorted
nipkow@5651
  8524
  programs, i.e. different program variables may have different types.
nipkow@5651
  8525
paulson@5142
  8526
* calling (stac rew i) now fails if "rew" has no effect on the goal
paulson@5142
  8527
  [previously, this check worked only if the rewrite rule was unconditional]
paulson@5308
  8528
  Now rew can involve either definitions or equalities (either == or =).

*** ZF ***
paulson@4879
  8532
paulson@5332
  8533
* theory Main includes everything; INCOMPATIBILITY: theory ZF.thy contains
paulson@5332
  8534
  only the theorems proved on ZF.ML;
paulson@5160
  8535
paulson@5475
  8536
* ZF INCOMPATIBILITY: rule `equals0D' is now a well-formed destruct rule;
paulson@5475
  8537
  It and 'sym RS equals0D' are now in the default  claset, giving automatic
paulson@5475
  8538
  disjointness reasoning but breaking a few old proofs.
paulson@5267
  8539
paulson@5160
  8540
* ZF/Update: new theory of function updates
paulson@5160
  8541
    with default rewrite rule  f(x:=y) ` z = if(z=x, y, f`z)
paulson@5160
  8542

paulson@5142
  8547

paulson@5308
  8548
  Now rew can involve either definitions or equalities (either == or =).
paulson@5142
  8549
paulson@5160
  8550
* case_tac provided for compatibility with HOL
paulson@5160
  8551

*** Internal programming interfaces ***
wenzelm@5002
  8555
wenzelm@5251
  8556
* Pure: several new basic modules made available for general use, see
wenzelm@5251
  8557
also src/Pure/README;
wenzelm@5207
  8558
wenzelm@5008
  8559
* improved the theory data mechanism to support encapsulation (data
wenzelm@5008
  8560
kind name replaced by private Object.kind, acting as authorization
wenzelm@5373
  8561
key); new type-safe user interface via functor TheoryDataFun; generic
wenzelm@5373
  8562
print_data function becomes basically useless;
wenzelm@5002
  8563
wenzelm@5251
  8564
* removed global_names compatibility flag -- all theory declarations
wenzelm@5251
  8565
are qualified by default;
wenzelm@5251
  8566
wenzelm@5085
  8567
* module Pure/Syntax now offers quote / antiquote translation
wenzelm@5085
  8568
functions (useful for Hoare logic etc. with implicit dependencies);
wenzelm@5373
  8569
see HOL/ex/Antiquote for an example use;
wenzelm@5085
  8570
wenzelm@5127
  8571
* Simplifier now offers conversions (asm_)(full_)rewrite: simpset ->
wenzelm@5127
  8572
cterm -> thm;
wenzelm@5127
  8573
wenzelm@5207
  8574
* new tactical CHANGED_GOAL for checking that a tactic modifies a
wenzelm@5207
  8575
subgoal;
paulson@5142
  8576
wenzelm@5251
  8577
* Display.print_goals function moved to Locale.print_goals;
wenzelm@5251
  8578
wenzelm@5731
  8579
* standard print function for goals supports current_goals_markers
wenzelm@5731
  8580
variable for marking begin of proof, end of proof, start of goal; the
wenzelm@5731
  8581
default is ("", "", ""); setting current_goals_markers := ("<proof>",
wenzelm@5731
  8582
"</proof>", "<goal>") causes SGML like tagged proof state printing,

  8590
*** Overview of INCOMPATIBILITIES (see below for more details) ***
wenzelm@4410
  8591
wenzelm@4410
  8592
* changed lexical syntax of terms / types: dots made part of long
wenzelm@4410
  8593
identifiers, e.g. "%x.x" no longer possible, should be "%x. x";
wenzelm@4410
  8594
wenzelm@4410
  8595
* simpset (and claset) reference variable replaced by functions
wenzelm@4410
  8596
simpset / simpset_ref;
wenzelm@4410
  8597
wenzelm@4410
  8598
* no longer supports theory aliases (via merge) and non-trivial
wenzelm@4410
  8599
implicit merge of thms' signatures;
wenzelm@4410
  8600
wenzelm@4410
  8601
* most internal names of constants changed due to qualified names;
wenzelm@4410
  8602
wenzelm@4410
  8603
* changed Pure/Sequence interface (see Pure/seq.ML);
wenzelm@4410
  8604
wenzelm@3454
  8605
paulson@3715
  8606
*** General Changes ***
wenzelm@3697
  8607
wenzelm@4174
  8608
* hierachically structured name spaces (for consts, types, axms, thms
wenzelm@3943
  8609
etc.); new lexical class 'longid' (e.g. Foo.bar.x) may render much of
wenzelm@4108
  8610
old input syntactically incorrect (e.g. "%x.x"); COMPATIBILITY:
wenzelm@4108
  8611
isatool fixdots ensures space after dots (e.g. "%x. x"); set
wenzelm@4174
  8612
long_names for fully qualified output names; NOTE: ML programs
wenzelm@4174
  8613
(special tactics, packages etc.) referring to internal names may have
wenzelm@4174
  8614
to be adapted to cope with fully qualified names; in case of severe
wenzelm@4174
  8615
backward campatibility problems try setting 'global_names' at compile
wenzelm@4174
  8616
time to have enrything declared within a flat name space; one may also
wenzelm@4174
  8617
fine tune name declarations in theories via the 'global' and 'local'
wenzelm@4174
  8618
section;
wenzelm@4108
  8619
wenzelm@4108
  8620
* reimplemented the implicit simpset and claset using the new anytype
wenzelm@4108
  8621
data filed in signatures; references simpset:simpset ref etc. are
wenzelm@4108
  8622
replaced by functions simpset:unit->simpset and
wenzelm@4108
  8623
simpset_ref:unit->simpset ref; COMPATIBILITY: use isatool fixclasimp
wenzelm@4108
  8624
to patch your ML files accordingly;
paulson@3856
  8625
wenzelm@3857
  8626
* HTML output now includes theory graph data for display with Java
wenzelm@3857
  8627
applet or isatool browser; data generated automatically via isatool
wenzelm@3901
  8628
usedir (see -i option, ISABELLE_USEDIR_OPTIONS);
wenzelm@3857
  8629
paulson@3856
  8630
* defs may now be conditional; improved rewrite_goals_tac to handle
paulson@3856
  8631
conditional equations;
paulson@3856
  8632
wenzelm@4174
  8633
* defs now admits additional type arguments, using TYPE('a) syntax;
wenzelm@4174
  8634
wenzelm@3901
  8635
* theory aliases via merge (e.g. M=A+B+C) no longer supported, always
wenzelm@3901
  8636
creates a new theory node; implicit merge of thms' signatures is
wenzelm@4112
  8637
restricted to 'trivial' ones; COMPATIBILITY: one may have to use
wenzelm@3901
  8638
transfer:theory->thm->thm in (rare) cases;
wenzelm@3901
  8639
wenzelm@3968
  8640
* improved handling of draft signatures / theories; draft thms (and
wenzelm@3968
  8641
ctyps, cterms) are automatically promoted to real ones;
wenzelm@3968
  8642
wenzelm@3901
  8643
* slightly changed interfaces for oracles: admit many per theory, named
wenzelm@3901
  8644
(e.g. oracle foo = mlfun), additional name argument for invoke_oracle;
wenzelm@3901
  8645
wenzelm@3901
  8646
* print_goals: optional output of const types (set show_consts and
wenzelm@3901
  8647
show_types);
wenzelm@3851
  8648
wenzelm@4388
  8649
* improved output of warnings (###) and errors (***);
wenzelm@3697
  8650
paulson@4178
  8651
* subgoal_tac displays a warning if the new subgoal has type variables;
paulson@4178
  8652
paulson@3715
  8653
* removed old README and Makefiles;
paulson@3715
  8654
paulson@3856
  8655
* replaced print_goals_ref hook by print_current_goals_fn and result_error_fn;
wenzelm@3670
  8656
paulson@3715
  8657
* removed obsolete init_pps and init_database;
paulson@3715
  8658
paulson@3715
  8659
* deleted the obsolete tactical STATE, which was declared by
paulson@3715
  8660
    fun STATE tacfun st = tacfun st st;
paulson@3715
  8661
wenzelm@4388
  8662
* cd and use now support path variables, e.g. $ISABELLE_HOME, or ~
wenzelm@4388
  8663
(which abbreviates $HOME);
wenzelm@4269
  8664
wenzelm@4269
  8665
* changed Pure/Sequence interface (see Pure/seq.ML); COMPATIBILITY:
wenzelm@4269
  8666
use isatool fixseq to adapt your ML programs (this works for fully
wenzelm@4269
  8667
qualified references to the Sequence structure only!);
wenzelm@4269
  8668
wenzelm@4381
  8669
* use_thy no longer requires writable current directory; it always
wenzelm@4381
  8670
reloads .ML *and* .thy file, if either one is out of date;
wenzelm@4269
  8671
paulson@3715
  8672
paulson@3715
  8673
*** Classical Reasoner ***
paulson@3715
  8674
wenzelm@3744
  8675
* Clarify_tac, clarify_tac, clarify_step_tac, Clarify_step_tac: new
wenzelm@3744
  8676
tactics that use classical reasoning to simplify a subgoal without
wenzelm@3744
  8677
splitting it into several subgoals;
paulson@3715
  8678
paulson@3719
  8679
* Safe_tac: like safe_tac but uses the default claset;
paulson@3719
  8680
paulson@3715
  8681
paulson@3715
  8682
*** Simplifier ***
paulson@3715
  8683
paulson@3715
  8684
* added simplification meta rules:
paulson@3715
  8685
    (asm_)(full_)simplify: simpset -> thm -> thm;
paulson@3715
  8686
paulson@3715
  8687
* simplifier.ML no longer part of Pure -- has to be loaded by object
paulson@3715
  8688
logics (again);
paulson@3715
  8689
paulson@3715
  8690
* added prems argument to simplification procedures;
paulson@3715
  8691
paulson@4325
  8692
* HOL, FOL, ZF: added infix function `addsplits':
paulson@4325
  8693
  instead of `<simpset> setloop (split_tac <thms>)'
paulson@4325
  8694
  you can simply write `<simpset> addsplits <thms>'
paulson@4325
  8695
paulson@3715
  8696
paulson@3715
  8697
*** Syntax ***
paulson@3715
  8698
wenzelm@4174
  8699
* TYPE('a) syntax for type reflection terms;
wenzelm@4174
  8700
wenzelm@3985
  8701
* no longer handles consts with name "" -- declare as 'syntax' instead;
paulson@3856
  8702
paulson@3856
  8703
* pretty printer: changed order of mixfix annotation preference (again!);
wenzelm@3846
  8704
paulson@3715
  8705
* Pure: fixed idt/idts vs. pttrn/pttrns syntactic categories;
paulson@3715
  8706
paulson@3715
  8707
paulson@3715
  8708
*** HOL ***
paulson@3715
  8709
wenzelm@5726
  8710
* HOL: there is a new splitter `split_asm_tac' that can be used e.g.
oheimb@4189
  8711
  with `addloop' of the simplifier to faciliate case splitting in premises.
oheimb@4189
  8712
nipkow@4035
  8713
* HOL/TLA: Stephan Merz's formalization of Lamport's Temporal Logic of Actions;
wenzelm@3985
  8714
wenzelm@3985
  8715
* HOL/Auth: new protocol proofs including some for the Internet
nipkow@4035
  8716
  protocol TLS;
wenzelm@3985
  8717
wenzelm@4125
  8718
* HOL/Map: new theory of `maps' a la VDM;
nipkow@3982
  8719
wenzelm@4335
  8720
* HOL/simplifier: simplification procedures nat_cancel_sums for
wenzelm@4335
  8721
cancelling out common nat summands from =, <, <= (in)equalities, or
wenzelm@4335
  8722
differences; simplification procedures nat_cancel_factor for
wenzelm@4335
  8723
cancelling common factor from =, <, <= (in)equalities over natural
wenzelm@4373
  8724
sums; nat_cancel contains both kinds of procedures, it is installed by
wenzelm@4373
  8725
default in Arith.thy -- this COULD MAKE EXISTING PROOFS FAIL;
wenzelm@4335
  8726
nipkow@3580
  8727
* HOL/simplifier: terms of the form
paulson@4325
  8728
  `? x. P1(x) & ... & Pn(x) & x=t & Q1(x) & ... Qn(x)'  (or t=x)
nipkow@3580
  8729
  are rewritten to
nipkow@4035
  8730
  `P1(t) & ... & Pn(t) & Q1(t) & ... Qn(t)',
nipkow@4035
  8731
  and those of the form
paulson@4325
  8732
  `! x. P1(x) & ... & Pn(x) & x=t & Q1(x) & ... Qn(x) --> R(x)'  (or t=x)
nipkow@4035
  8733
  are rewritten to
nipkow@4035
  8734
  `P1(t) & ... & Pn(t) & Q1(t) & ... Qn(t) --> R(t)',
nipkow@3580
  8735
nipkow@4035
  8736
* HOL/datatype
nipkow@4035
  8737
  Each datatype `t' now comes with a theorem `split_t_case' of the form
nipkow@4035
  8738
nipkow@4035
  8739
  P(t_case f1 ... fn x) =
nipkow@4035
  8740
     ( (!y1 ... ym1. x = C1 y1 ... ym1 --> P(f1 y1 ... ym1)) &
nipkow@4035
  8741
        ...
oheimb@4189
  8742
       (!y1 ... ymn. x = Cn y1 ... ymn --> P(f1 y1 ... ymn))
nipkow@4035
  8743
     )
nipkow@4035
  8744
oheimb@4930
  8745
  and a theorem `split_t_case_asm' of the form
oheimb@4189
  8746
oheimb@4189
  8747
  P(t_case f1 ... fn x) =
oheimb@4189
  8748
    ~( (? y1 ... ym1. x = C1 y1 ... ym1 & ~P(f1 y1 ... ym1)) |
oheimb@4189
  8749
        ...
oheimb@4189
  8750
       (? y1 ... ymn. x = Cn y1 ... ymn & ~P(f1 y1 ... ymn))
oheimb@4189
  8751
     )
oheimb@4930
  8752
  which can be added to a simpset via `addsplits'. The existing theorems
oheimb@4930
  8753
  expand_list_case and expand_option_case have been renamed to
oheimb@4930
  8754
  split_list_case and split_option_case.
oheimb@4189

  8756
* HOL/Arithmetic:
nipkow@4361
  8757
  - `pred n' is automatically converted to `n-1'.
nipkow@4361
  8758
    Users are strongly encouraged not to use `pred' any longer,
nipkow@4361
  8759
    because it will disappear altogether at some point.
nipkow@4361
  8760
  - Users are strongly encouraged to write "0 < n" rather than
nipkow@4361
  8761
    "n ~= 0". Theorems and proof tools have been modified towards this
nipkow@4361
  8762
    `standard'.
nipkow@4357
  8763
nipkow@4502
  8764
* HOL/Lists:
nipkow@4502
  8765
  the function "set_of_list" has been renamed "set" (and its theorems too);
nipkow@4502
  8766
  the function "nth" now takes its arguments in the reverse order and
nipkow@4502
  8767
  has acquired the infix notation "!" as in "xs!n".
paulson@3570
  8768
paulson@4154
  8769
* HOL/Set: UNIV is now a constant and is no longer translated to Compl{};
paulson@4154
  8770
paulson@4154
  8771
* HOL/Set: The operator (UN x.B x) now abbreviates (UN x:UNIV. B x) and its
paulson@4154
  8772
  specialist theorems (like UN1_I) are gone.  Similarly for (INT x.B x);
paulson@4154
  8773
wenzelm@4575
  8774
* HOL/record: extensible records with schematic structural subtyping
wenzelm@4575
  8775
(single inheritance); EXPERIMENTAL version demonstrating the encoding,
wenzelm@4575
  8776
still lacks various theorems and concrete record syntax;

paulson@3715
  8779
*** HOLCF ***
wenzelm@3511
  8780
wenzelm@4125
  8781
* removed "axioms" and "generated by" sections;
wenzelm@4125
  8782
oheimb@4123
  8783
* replaced "ops" section by extended "consts" section, which is capable of
wenzelm@4125
  8784
  handling the continuous function space "->" directly;
wenzelm@4125
  8785
wenzelm@4125
  8786
* domain package:
wenzelm@4125
  8787
  . proves theorems immediately and stores them in the theory,
wenzelm@4125
  8788
  . creates hierachical name space,
wenzelm@4125
  8789
  . now uses normal mixfix annotations (instead of cinfix...),
wenzelm@4125
  8790
  . minor changes to some names and values (for consistency),
wenzelm@4125
  8791
  . e.g. cases -> casedist, dists_eq -> dist_eqs, [take_lemma] -> take_lemmas,
wenzelm@4125
  8792
  . separator between mutual domain defs: changed "," to "and",
wenzelm@4125
  8793
  . improved handling of sort constraints;  now they have to
wenzelm@4125
  8794
    appear on the left-hand side of the equations only;
oheimb@4123
  8795
oheimb@4123
  8796
* fixed LAM <x,y,zs>.b syntax;
wenzelm@3535
  8797
wenzelm@3744
  8798
* added extended adm_tac to simplifier in HOLCF -- can now discharge
wenzelm@3744
  8799
adm (%x. P (t x)), where P is chainfinite and t continuous;
wenzelm@3579

paulson@3719
  8802
*** FOL and ZF ***
paulson@3719
  8803
wenzelm@5726
  8804
* FOL: there is a new splitter `split_asm_tac' that can be used e.g.
oheimb@4189
  8805
  with `addloop' of the simplifier to faciliate case splitting in premises.
oheimb@4189
  8806
wenzelm@3744
  8807
* qed_spec_mp, qed_goal_spec_mp, qed_goalw_spec_mp are available, as
wenzelm@3744
  8808
in HOL, they strip ALL and --> from proved theorems;

wenzelm@3006
  8813
------------------------------
wenzelm@2654
  8814
paulson@3002
  8815
*** General Changes ***
paulson@3002
  8816
paulson@3002
  8817
* new utilities to build / run / maintain Isabelle etc. (in parts
paulson@3002
  8818
still somewhat experimental); old Makefiles etc. still functional;
wenzelm@2971
  8819
wenzelm@3205
  8820
* new 'Isabelle System Manual';
wenzelm@3205
  8821
wenzelm@2825
  8822
* INSTALL text, together with ./configure and ./build scripts;
wenzelm@2773
  8823
wenzelm@3006
  8824
* reimplemented type inference for greater efficiency, better error
wenzelm@3006
  8825
messages and clean internal interface;
paulson@3002
  8826
paulson@3002
  8827
* prlim command for dealing with lots of subgoals (an easier way of
paulson@3002
  8828
setting goals_limit);
paulson@3002
  8829
wenzelm@3006
  8830
wenzelm@3006
  8831
*** Syntax ***
paulson@3002
  8832
wenzelm@3116
  8833
* supports alternative (named) syntax tables (parser and pretty
wenzelm@3116
  8834
printer); internal interface is provided by add_modesyntax(_i);
wenzelm@3116
  8835
paulson@3002
  8836
* Pure, FOL, ZF, HOL, HOLCF now support symbolic input and output; to
paulson@3002
  8837
be used in conjunction with the Isabelle symbol font; uses the
paulson@3002
  8838
"symbols" syntax table;
paulson@3002
  8839
wenzelm@2705
  8840
* added token_translation interface (may translate name tokens in
wenzelm@2756
  8841
arbitrary ways, dependent on their type (free, bound, tfree, ...) and
wenzelm@3116
  8842
the current print_mode); IMPORTANT: user print translation functions
wenzelm@3116
  8843
are responsible for marking newly introduced bounds
wenzelm@3116
  8844
(Syntax.mark_boundT);
wenzelm@2705
  8845
wenzelm@2730
  8846
* token translations for modes "xterm" and "xterm_color" that display
wenzelm@3006
  8847
names in bold, underline etc. or colors (which requires a color
wenzelm@3006
  8848
version of xterm);
wenzelm@2730
  8849
paulson@3002
  8850
* infixes may now be declared with names independent of their syntax;
paulson@3002
  8851
paulson@3002
  8852
* added typed_print_translation (like print_translation, but may
paulson@3002
  8853
access type of constant);
paulson@3002
  8854
wenzelm@3006
  8855
paulson@3002
  8856
*** Classical Reasoner ***
paulson@3002
  8857
paulson@3002
  8858
Blast_tac: a new tactic!  It is often more powerful than fast_tac, but has
paulson@3002
  8859
some limitations.  Blast_tac...
paulson@3002
  8860
  + ignores addss, addbefore, addafter; this restriction is intrinsic
paulson@3002
  8861
  + ignores elimination rules that don't have the correct format
wenzelm@5726
  8862
        (the conclusion MUST be a formula variable)
paulson@3002
  8863
  + ignores types, which can make HOL proofs fail
paulson@3002
  8864
  + rules must not require higher-order unification, e.g. apply_type in ZF
paulson@3002
  8865
    [message "Function Var's argument not a bound variable" relates to this]
paulson@3002
  8866
  + its proof strategy is more general but can actually be slower
paulson@3002
  8867
wenzelm@3107
  8868
* substitution with equality assumptions no longer permutes other
wenzelm@3107
  8869
assumptions;
paulson@3002
  8870
paulson@3002
  8871
* minor changes in semantics of addafter (now called addaltern); renamed
paulson@3002
  8872
setwrapper to setWrapper and compwrapper to compWrapper; added safe wrapper
wenzelm@3107
  8873
(and access functions for it);
paulson@3002
  8874
wenzelm@5726
  8875
* improved combination of classical reasoner and simplifier:
oheimb@3317
  8876
  + functions for handling clasimpsets
oheimb@3317
  8877
  + improvement of addss: now the simplifier is called _after_ the
oheimb@3317
  8878
    safe steps.
oheimb@3317
  8879
  + safe variant of addss called addSss: uses safe simplifications
wenzelm@5726
  8880
    _during_ the safe steps. It is more complete as it allows multiple
oheimb@3317
  8881
    instantiations of unknowns (e.g. with slow_tac).
wenzelm@3006
  8882
paulson@3002
  8883
*** Simplifier ***
paulson@3002
  8884
wenzelm@3006
  8885
* added interface for simplification procedures (functions that
wenzelm@3006
  8886
produce *proven* rewrite rules on the fly, depending on current
wenzelm@3006
  8887
redex);
wenzelm@3006
  8888
wenzelm@3006
  8889
* ordering on terms as parameter (used for ordered rewriting);
wenzelm@3006
  8890
wenzelm@3107
  8891
* new functions delcongs, deleqcongs, and Delcongs. richer rep_ss;
paulson@3002
  8892
paulson@3002
  8893
* the solver is now split into a safe and an unsafe part.
paulson@3002
  8894
This should be invisible for the normal user, except that the
paulson@3002
  8895
functions setsolver and addsolver have been renamed to setSolver and
wenzelm@3107
  8896
addSolver; added safe_asm_full_simp_tac;
paulson@3002
  8897
paulson@3002
  8898
paulson@3002
  8899
*** HOL ***
paulson@3002
  8900
nipkow@3042
  8901
* a generic induction tactic `induct_tac' which works for all datatypes and
wenzelm@3107
  8902
also for type `nat';
nipkow@3042
  8903
nipkow@3316
  8904
* a generic case distinction tactic `exhaust_tac' which works for all
nipkow@3316
  8905
datatypes and also for type `nat';
nipkow@3316
  8906
nipkow@3316
  8907
* each datatype comes with a function `size';
nipkow@3316
  8908
paulson@3002
  8909
* patterns in case expressions allow tuple patterns as arguments to
wenzelm@3107
  8910
constructors, for example `case x of [] => ... | (x,y,z)#ps => ...';
paulson@3002
  8911
paulson@3002
  8912
* primrec now also works with type nat;
paulson@3002
  8913
paulson@3338
  8914
* recdef: a new declaration form, allows general recursive functions to be
paulson@3338
  8915
defined in theory files.  See HOL/ex/Fib, HOL/ex/Primes, HOL/Subst/Unify.
paulson@3338
  8916
paulson@3002
  8917
* the constant for negation has been renamed from "not" to "Not" to
wenzelm@3107
  8918
harmonize with FOL, ZF, LK, etc.;
paulson@3002
  8919
wenzelm@3107
  8920
* HOL/ex/LFilter theory of a corecursive "filter" functional for
wenzelm@3107
  8921
infinite lists;
paulson@3002
  8922
wenzelm@3227
  8923
* HOL/Modelcheck demonstrates invocation of model checker oracle;
wenzelm@3227
  8924
paulson@3002
  8925
* HOL/ex/Ring.thy declares cring_simp, which solves equational
paulson@3002
  8926
problems in commutative rings, using axiomatic type classes for + and *;
paulson@3002
  8927
paulson@3002
  8928
* more examples in HOL/MiniML and HOL/Auth;
paulson@3002
  8929
paulson@3002
  8930
* more default rewrite rules for quantifiers, union/intersection;
paulson@3002
  8931
nipkow@3321
  8932
* a new constant `arbitrary == @x.False';
nipkow@3321
  8933
wenzelm@3107
  8934
* HOLCF/IOA replaces old HOL/IOA;
wenzelm@3107
  8935
wenzelm@5726
  8936
* HOLCF changes: derived all rules and arities
wenzelm@5726
  8937
  + axiomatic type classes instead of classes
slotosch@2653
  8938
  + typedef instead of faking type definitions
paulson@2747
  8939
  + eliminated the internal constants less_fun, less_cfun, UU_fun, UU_cfun etc.
wenzelm@2730
  8940
  + new axclasses cpo, chfin, flat with flat < chfin < pcpo < cpo < po
slotosch@2653
  8941
  + eliminated the types void, one, tr
slotosch@2653
  8942
  + use unit lift and bool lift (with translations) instead of one and tr
slotosch@2653
  8943
  + eliminated blift from Lift3.thy (use Def instead of blift)
wenzelm@3107
  8944
  all eliminated rules are derived as theorems --> no visible changes ;

  8947
*** ZF ***
wenzelm@2553
  8948
paulson@2865
  8949
* ZF now has Fast_tac, Simp_tac and Auto_tac.  Union_iff is a now a default
paulson@2865
  8950
rewrite rule; this may affect some proofs.  eq_cs is gone but can be put back
paulson@2865
  8951
as ZF_cs addSIs [equalityI];

wenzelm@2554
  8963
quantifications in as far as possible (COULD MAKE EXISTING PROOFS
wenzelm@2554
  8964
FAIL); can suppress it using the command Delsimps (ex_simps @

* Mutually recursive inductive definitions finally work in HOL;
paulson@2557
  9037
paulson@2557
  9038
* In ZF, pattern-matching on tuples is now available in all abstractions and
paulson@2557
  9039
translates to the operator "split";

paulson@2557
  9045
wenzelm@5726
  9046
* new infix operator, addss, allowing the classical reasoner to
paulson@2557
  9047
perform simplification at each step of its search.  Example:
wenzelm@5726
  9048
        fast_tac (cs addss ss)
paulson@2557
  9049
wenzelm@5726
  9050
* a new logic, CHOL, the same as HOL, but with a curried syntax
wenzelm@5726
  9051
for functions.  Application looks like f a b instead of f(a,b).  Also pairs
paulson@2557
  9052
look like (a,b) instead of <a,b>;
paulson@2557
  9053
paulson@2557
  9054
* PLEASE NOTE: CHOL will eventually replace HOL!
paulson@2557

paulson@2557
  9056
* In CHOL, pattern-matching on tuples is now available in all abstractions.

It translates to the operator "split".  A new theory of integers is available;
paulson@2557
  9058
paulson@2557
  9059
* In ZF, integer numerals now denote two's-complement binary integers.
paulson@2557
  9060
Arithmetic operations can be performed by rewriting.  See ZF/ex/Bin.ML;
paulson@2557
  9061
wenzelm@5726
  9062
* Many new examples: I/O automata, Church-Rosser theorem, equivalents
paulson@2557
  9063
of the Axiom of Choice;

* Significantly faster resolution;
paulson@2557
  9071
paulson@2557
  9072
* the different sections in a .thy file can now be mixed and repeated
paulson@2557
  9073
freely;
paulson@2557
  9074
paulson@2557
  9075
* Database of theorems for FOL, HOL and ZF.  New
paulson@2557
  9076
commands including qed, qed_goal and bind_thm store theorems in the database.
paulson@2557
  9077
paulson@2557
  9078
* Simple database queries: return a named theorem (get_thm) or all theorems of
paulson@2557
  9079
a given theory (thms_of), or find out what theory a theorem was proved in
paulson@2557
  9080
(theory_of_thm);
paulson@2557
  9081
paulson@2557
  9082
* Bugs fixed in the inductive definition and datatype packages;
paulson@2557
  9083
paulson@2557
  9084
* The classical reasoner provides deepen_tac and depth_tac, making FOL_dup_cs
paulson@2557
  9085
and HOL_dup_cs obsolete;
paulson@2557
  9086
paulson@2557
  9087
* Syntactic ambiguities caused by the new treatment of syntax in Isabelle94-1
paulson@2557
  9088
have been removed;
paulson@2557
  9089
paulson@2557
  9090
* Simpler definition of function space in ZF;
paulson@2557
  9091
paulson@2557
  9092
* new results about cardinal and ordinal arithmetic in ZF;
paulson@2557
  9093
paulson@2557
  9094
* 'subtype' facility in HOL for introducing new types as subsets of existing
paulson@2557
  9095
types;
