ellipsis : Bool
true if .. was used
explicit : Bool
true if @ modifier was used
resultIsOutParamSupport : Bool
If the result type of an application is the outParam of some local instance, then special support may be needed because type class resolution interacts poorly with coercions in this kind of situation. This flag enables the special support.
The idea is quite simple, if the result type is the outParam of some local instance, we simply execute synthesizeSyntheticMVarsUsingDefault. We added this feature to make sure examples as follows are correctly elaborated.
```
class GetElem (Cont : Type u) (Idx : Type v) (Elem : outParam (Type w)) where
  getElem (xs : Cont) (i : Idx) : Elem

export GetElem (getElem)

instance : GetElem (Array α) Nat α where
  getElem xs i := xs.get ⟨i, sorry⟩

opaque f : Option Bool → Bool
opaque g : Bool → Bool

def bad (xs : Array Bool) : Bool :=
  let x := getElem xs 0
  f x && g x
```
Without the special support, Lean fails at g x saying x has type Option Bool but is expected to have type Bool. From the user's point of view this is a bug, since let x := getElem xs 0 clearly constrains x to be Bool, but we only obtain this information after we apply the OfNat default instance for 0.
Before converging to this solution, we have tried to create a "coercion placeholder" when resultIsOutParamSupport = true, but it did not work well in practice. For example, it failed in the example above.

Auxiliary structure for elaborating the application f args namedArgs.

namedArgs : List Lean.Elab.Term.NamedArg
remaining named arguments to be processed.
expectedType? : Option Lean.Expr

When named arguments are provided and explicit arguments occurring before them are missing, the elaborator eta-expands the declaration. For example,
```

#check f (y := 5)

Eliminator-like function application elaborator #

source

structure Lean.Elab.Term.ElabElimInfo :

Type

Information about an eliminator used by the elab-as-elim elaborator. This is not to be confused with Lean.Meta.ElimInfo, which is for induction and cases. The elab-as-elim routine is less restrictive in what counts as an eliminator, and it doesn't need to have a strict notion of what is a "target" — all it cares about are

that the return type of a function is of the form m ... where m is a parameter (unlike induction and cases eliminators, the arguments to m, known as "discriminants", can be any expressions, not just parameters), and
which arguments should be eagerly elaborated, to make discriminants be as elaborated as possible for the expected type generalization procedure, and which should be postponed (since they are the "minor premises").

Note that the routine isn't doing induction/cases on particular expressions. The purpose of elab-as-elim is to successfully solve the higher-order unification problem between the return type of the function and the expected type.

elimExpr : Lean.Expr
The eliminator.
elimType : Lean.Expr
The type of the eliminator.
motivePos : Nat
The position of the motive parameter.
majorsPos : Array Nat
Positions of "major" parameters (those that should be eagerly elaborated because they can contribute to the motive inference procedure). All parameters that are neither the motive nor a major parameter are "minor" parameters. The major parameters include all of the parameters that transitively appear in the motive's arguments, as well as "first-order" arguments that include such parameters, since they too can help with elaborating discriminants.
For example, in the following theorem the argument h : a = b should be elaborated eagerly because it contains b, which occurs in motive b.
```
theorem Eq.subst' {α} {motive : α → Prop} {a b : α} (h : a = b) : motive a → motive b
```
For another example, the term isEmptyElim (α := α) is an underapplied eliminator, and it needs argument α to be elaborated eagerly to create a type-correct motive.
```
def isEmptyElim [IsEmpty α] {p : α → Sort _} (a : α) : p a := ...
example {α : Type _} [IsEmpty α] : id (α → False) := isEmptyElim (α := α)
```

Lean.Elab.TermElabM Lean.Expr

Elaborate a f-application using namedArgs and args as the arguments.

expectedType? the expected type if available. It is used to propagate typing information only. This method does not ensure the result has this type.
explicit = true when notation @ is used, and implicit arguments are assumed to be provided at namedArgs and args.
ellipsis = true when notation .. is used. That is, we add _ for missing arguments.
resultIsOutParamSupport is used to control whether special support is used when processing applications of functions that return output parameter of some local instance. Example:
```
GetElem.getElem : {Cont : Type u_1} → {Idx : Type u_2} → {elem : Type u_3} → {dom : cont → idx → Prop} → [self : GetElem cont idx elem dom] → (xs : cont) → (i : idx) → dom xs i → elem
```
The result type elem is the output parameter of the local instance self. When this parameter is set to true, we execute synthesizeSyntheticMVarsUsingDefault. For additional details, see comment at ElabAppArgs.resultIsOutParam.

Interaction between `errToSorry` and `observing`. #

The method elabTerm catches exceptions, logs them, and returns a synthetic sorry (IF ctx.errToSorry == true).
When we elaborate choice nodes (and overloaded identifiers), we track multiple results using the observing x combinator. The observing x executes x and returns a TermElabResult.

observing x does not check for synthetic sorry's, just an exception. Thus, it may think x worked when it didn't if a synthetic sorry was introduced. We decided that checking for synthetic sorrys at observing is not a good solution because it would not be clear to decide what the "main" error message for the alternative is. When the result contains a synthetic sorry, it is not clear which error message corresponds to the sorry. Moreover, while executing x, many error messages may have been logged. Recall that we need an error per alternative at mergeFailures.

Thus, we decided to set errToSorry to false whenever processing choice nodes and overloaded symbols.

Important: we rely on the property that after errToSorry is set to false, no elaboration function executed by x will reset it to true.
