A comptime-constructed type with NO members is now VALID for every kind
(empty struct, empty tuple, empty enum, empty tagged_union) — only a bare
`declare("X")` placeholder that is never completed by a matching `define`
stays rejected (it would panic codegen).
- comptime_vm.zig registerTypeVm: drop the blanket "a type with no members
is never valid" rejection. The per-kind loops are vacuous for an empty
member list and the dup-name checks stay correct.
- types.zig TaggedUnionInfo: add `defined: bool = true`. Every real
construction (normal unions, error sets, register_type completion) is
"defined" by default; only the two declare-PLACEHOLDER sites set it false:
comptime_vm.declareNominal and lower/comptime.preregisterForwardTypes.
- lower/comptime.checkComptimeTypeResult: reject on `!defined` (never-defined
placeholder) instead of `fields.len == 0`, so an explicitly-defined empty
union passes through while a never-completed declare is still gated.
- types.zig typeSizeBytes(tagged_union): floor the payload area at 8 bytes
when no field carries a payload, mirroring the LLVM lowering — fixes a
verifySizes panic on an empty/all-void tagged_union (IR sized to tag-only,
LLVM laid out tag + [8 x i8]).
Tests:
- examples/1179: repurposed from "empty enum rejected" (now valid) to the
never-defined `declare` case (the remaining rejection); preserves its
issue-0140 regression role.
- examples/1180 (duplicate variant): still rejected, unchanged output.
- examples/0641 (new): construct empty struct/tuple/enum/tagged_union via
define/declare; instantiate the constructible ones; exit 0.

// A comptime-constructed type with NO members is VALID for every kind:
|
|
// - an empty struct `struct {}` and empty tuple `()` are zero-size aggregates
|
|
// you can instantiate (`.{}`),
|
|
// - an empty enum and an empty tagged_union are valid uninhabited / zero-member
|
|
// types — legitimate to NAME and reference even though they have no
|
|
// constructible value (no variant to construct).
|
|
//
|
|
// This mirrors normal sx, where `struct {}` and `enum {}` already codegen fine;
|
|
// the metatype `define`/`declare` path now agrees (the old blanket
|
|
// "a type with no members is never valid" rejection is gone).
|
|
//
|
|
// The ONLY thing still rejected on this path is a bare `declare("X")` that is
|
|
// never completed by a matching `define` — an INCOMPLETE forward slot that would
|
|
// panic codegen. That case is exercised by examples/1179.
