librustc: Remove the fallback to `int` from typechecking.

2014-06-25T00:18:48+00:00

This breaks a fair amount of code. The typical patterns are: * `for _ in range(0, 10)`: change to `for _ in range(0u, 10)`; * `println!("{}", 3)`: change to `println!("{}", 3i)`; * `[1, 2, 3].len()`: change to `[1i, 2, 3].len()`. RFC #30. Closes #6023. [breaking-change]

rustc: Remove ~[T] from the language

2014-06-11T22:02:17+00:00

The following features have been removed * box [a, b, c] * ~[a, b, c] * box [a, ..N] * ~[a, ..N] * ~[T] (as a type) * deprecated_owned_vector lint All users of ~[T] should move to using Vec instead.

Use phase(plugin) in bootstrap crates

Do this to avoid warnings on post-stage0 builds.

std: Recreate a `rand` module

2014-05-29T23:18:26+00:00

This commit shuffles around some of the `rand` code, along with some reorganization. The new state of the world is as follows: * The librand crate now only depends on libcore. This interface is experimental. * The standard library has a new module, `std::rand`. This interface will eventually become stable. Unfortunately, this entailed more of a breaking change than just shuffling some names around. The following breaking changes were made to the rand library: * Rng::gen_vec() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_iter() which will return an infinite stream of random values. Previous behavior can be regained with `rng.gen_iter().take(n).collect()` * Rng::gen_ascii_str() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_ascii_chars() which will return an infinite stream of random ascii characters. Similarly to gen_iter(), previous behavior can be emulated with `rng.gen_ascii_chars().take(n).collect()` * {IsaacRng, Isaac64Rng, XorShiftRng}::new() have all been removed. These all relied on being able to use an OSRng for seeding, but this is no longer available in librand (where these types are defined). To retain the same functionality, these types now implement the `Rand` trait so they can be generated with a random seed from another random number generator. This allows the stdlib to use an OSRng to create seeded instances of these RNGs. * Rand implementations for `Box` and `@T` were removed. These seemed to be pretty rare in the codebase, and it allows for librand to not depend on liballoc. Additionally, other pointer types like Rc and Arc were not supported. If this is undesirable, librand can depend on liballoc and regain these implementations. * The WeightedChoice structure is no longer built with a `Vec>`, but rather a `&mut [Weighted]`. This means that the WeightedChoice structure now has a lifetime associated with it. * The `sample` method on `Rng` has been moved to a top-level function in the `rand` module due to its dependence on `Vec`. cc #13851 [breaking-change]

Change static.rust-lang.org to doc.rust-lang.org

2014-05-22T02:55:39+00:00

The new documentation site has shorter urls, gzip'd content, and index.html redirecting functionality.

Remove Rng.choose(), rename Rng.choose_option() to .choose()

2014-05-21T03:44:45+00:00

Rng.choose() is used so rarely that it doesn't necessitate having two methods, especially since the failing, non-option variant also requires Clone. [breaking-change]
