Topic: [isabelle] Adding lemmas to fact collections

From: David Trachtenherz <trachten@in.tum.de>
Hello,

in Isabelle 2005 it was possible to successively add lemmas to a
collection of lemmas in a way like:
lemmas some_lemmas = lemma1 lemma2
lemmas some_lemmas = some_lemmas lemma3
lemmas some_lemmas = some_lemmas lemma4
...

In Isabelle 2008 this method yields the error message "Duplicate fact".
Is there a way to add new facts to an already declared fact collection?

Thank You in advance!

David

Overwriting existing fact names in older versions of Isabelle did not
really achieve the effect of "adding facts to a collection", and had many
other problems (there was also a warning). For example, merging theories
did not merge these pseudo-containers, but select one from some branch
(via the name space).

This is how to do named collections of facts properly in Isabelle2008:

ML {* structure Foo = NamedThmsFun(val name = "foo" val description = "foo rules") *}
setup Foo.setup

declare refl [foo]
declare sym [foo]
declare trans [foo]

thm foo

declare refl [foo del]

thm foo
