What's Changed?

This week includes many changes to bring the behaviours of the Old and New Luau Type Solver more in line.

  • The old solver now stringifies tables identically to the new solver. Sealed tables are stringified as { ... } and unsealed tables are represented by {| ... |}, regardless of your choice of solver.

New Type Solver

  • Miscellaneous fixes to make the Luau Frontend able to dynamically toggle which solve is used.
  • Small fixes to reduce instances of nondeterminism of the New Type Solver.
  • Issue an error when a function that has multiple non-viable overloads is used.
  • Subtyping now returns more information about the generics for type inference to consume.
  • Stop stuck type-functions from blocking type inference. This should lead to fewer instances of 'type inference failed to complete'.

Fragment Autocomplete

  • Fixed a bug where incremental autocomplete wouldn't be able to provide results directly on a required module script. require(script.Module).{request completions here} will now recommend the properties returned by the required object.

This test fails due to a bad interaction when `FFlagLuauStoreCSTData` is
enabled, whilst `FFlagLexerFixInterpStringStart` is disabled.
The OSS test suite, when run with `--fflags=true`, enables all
flags starting with a `Luau` prefix, but does not enable any other flag.

To resolve this, we explicitly enable both fflags for the failing
interpolated string test cases. As a consequence, we technically lose
the check that these tests pass when all flags are disabled.
