Add push! implementation for AbstractArray depending only on resize! (J…
…uliaLang#55470) Fix JuliaLang#55459 In Julia 1.10, `push!` and `append!` would be functional for `AbstractVector` implementations if `resize!` and `setindex!` were defined. As of JuliaLang#51903 by @vtjnash as in Julia 1.11.0-rc2, `append!` now depends on an implementation of `sizehint!` and `push!`. Since `push!` also depends on `append!`, a stack overflow situation can easily be created. To avoid this, this pull request defines the following * Add generic versions of `push!(a::AbstractVector, x)` which do not depend on `append!` * Add default implementation of `sizehint!` that is a no-op The implementation of `push!(a::AbstractVector, x)` is a generic version based on the implementation of `push!(a::Vector, x)` without depending on internals. # Example for SimpleArray Consider the `SimpleArray` example from test/abstractarray.jl: ```julia mutable struct SimpleArray{T} <: AbstractVector{T} els::Vector{T} end Base.size(sa::SimpleArray) = size(sa.els) Base.getindex(sa::SimpleArray, idx...) = getindex(sa.els, idx...) Base.setindex!(sa::SimpleArray, v, idx...) = setindex!(sa.els, v, idx...) Base.resize!(sa::SimpleArray, n) = resize!(sa.els, n) Base.copy(sa::SimpleArray) = SimpleArray(copy(sa.els)) ``` Note that `setindex!` and `resize!` are implemented for `SimpleArray`. ## Julia 1.10.4: push! is functional On Julia 1.10.4, `push!` has a functional implementation for `SimpleArray` ```julia-repl julia> push!(SimpleArray{Int}(zeros(Int,5)), 6) 6-element SimpleArray{Int64}: 0 0 0 0 0 6 ``` ## Julia 1.11.0-rc2 and nightly: push! requires sizehint! and is prone to stack overflow Before this pull request, on Julia 1.11.0-rc2 and nightly, `push!` fails for want of `sizehint!`. ```julia-repl julia> push!(SimpleArray{Int}(zeros(Int,5)), 6) ERROR: MethodError: no method matching sizehint!(::SimpleArray{Int64}, ::Int64) The function `sizehint!` exists, but no method is defined for this combination of argument types. ... ``` After implementing `sizehint!`, `push!` still fails with a stack overflow. ```julia-repl julia> Base.sizehint!(a::SimpleArray, x) = a julia> push!(SimpleArray{Int}(zeros(Int, 5)), 6) Warning: detected a stack overflow; program state may be corrupted, so further execution might be unreliable. ERROR: StackOverflowError: Stacktrace: [1] _append! @ ./array.jl:1344 [inlined] [2] append! @ ./array.jl:1335 [inlined] [3] push!(a::SimpleArray{Int64}, iter::Int64) @ Base ./array.jl:1336 --- the above 3 lines are repeated 79982 more times --- [239950] _append! @ ./array.jl:1344 [inlined] [239951] append! @ ./array.jl:1335 [inlined] ``` This is because the new implementation of `append!` depends on `push!`. ## After this pull request, push! is functional. After this pull request, there is a functional `push!` for `SimpleArray` again as in Julia 1.10.4: ```julia-repl julia> push!(SimpleArray{Int}(zeros(Int, 5), 6) 6-element SimpleArray{Int64}: 0 0 0 0 0 6 ```
