******************************* Picklers ********************************
Generates both Picklers and Unpicklers for Spores and SporeWithEnvs.
Generates both Picklers and Unpicklers for Spores and SporeWithEnvs.
The Picklers will be used by default and the Unpicklers will be invoked
by the UnpicklerFetcher defined below. Fortunately, we don't have to keep
type information of Captured in the pickled message since we already know
which is the correct tag when unpickle is invoked (this is kind of a hack).
****************************** Unpicklers *******************************
Generates an Unpickler that will be able to get the classname of another
Unpickler and successfully instantiate it and delegate its responsability.
Generates an Unpickler that will be able to get the classname of another
Unpickler and successfully instantiate it and delegate its responsability.
This is used to call Unpicklers that are generated at the same time as
the Picklers but that cannot be run when unpickling because we don't have
enough information, e.g. the user does not specify that a Spore is indeed
SporeWithEnv. Also, it's not allowed to include the type refinements of
Captured in the type annotation of the method unpickle, so that
prevents them from being selected in the implicit search.
The current implementation doesn't really use this method but there can be corner cases or future bugs that could be fixed using it.
