Options codegen error: ‘tyObject_Option__xxxx’ has no member named ‘has’

[konradmb]

Description

Minimal reproduction:

import options

type
  Node[T] = ref object
    value: T
    previous: Option[Node[T]]
    next: Option[Node[T]]
  LinkedList*[T] = object ## A doubly linked list.
    first: Option[Node[T]]
    last: Option[Node[T]]

var list = LinkedList[int]()
# let qwerqwer = list.first.get.next 
# This ^ line errors on stable (1.6.12), but not on current devel 1.9.1 (f7e3af0c2d68035a649cf9449cc4e02a7ea59e84)
let newNode = Node[int](value: 0,
                      next: list.first.get.next,
                      previous: Node[int].none).some

Expected Output

No error

Possible Solution

Elegantbeef from Matrix says it is a "cgen bug For some reason it's calling .has for a Option[ref] even though it shouldnt"

Additional Information

• This is a part of Exercism "Linked list" exercise, but I'm trying to solve it with options instead of nils.
• There's also something wrong going on when I change the Node[T] = ref object to just Node[T] = object: compiler exits on "......" dots phase without any errors and leaves terminal without newline.

Might be a duplicate of #16754

[konradmb]

@Yardanico I can reproduce this one on --gc:none, --gc:arc, --gc:orc, --gc:refc. Although error messages are slightly different, it still generally boils down to "...has no member named ‘has’"
Also, compiler probably crashes with normal object (not ref).

[metagn]

This:

import options

type
  NodeObj[T] = object
    value: T
    previous: Option[ref NodeObj[T]]
    next: Option[ref NodeObj[T]]
  Node[T] = ref NodeObj[T]
  LinkedList*[T] = object ## A doubly linked list.
    first: Option[Node[T]]
    last: Option[Node[T]]

var list = LinkedList[int]()
let newNode = Node[int](value: 0,
                      next: list.first.get.next,
                      previous: Node[int].none).some

gives:

prog.nim(17Error: unhandled exception: Can't obtain a value from a `none` [UnpackDefect]

While a similar workaround works for #16754

Edit: Actually this is probably the expected behavior of this code, so this workaround seems to work here as well
