std: Redesign c_str and c_vec

2015-01-05T16:00:13+00:00

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 494][rfc] which removes the entire `std::c_vec` module and redesigns the `std::c_str` module as `std::ffi`. [rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0494-c_str-and-c_vec-stability.md The interface of the new `CString` is outlined in the linked RFC, the primary changes being: * The `ToCStr` trait is gone, meaning the `with_c_str` and `to_c_str` methods are now gone. These two methods are replaced with a `CString::from_slice` method. * The `CString` type is now just a wrapper around `Vec` with a static guarantee that there is a trailing nul byte with no internal nul bytes. This means that `CString` now implements `Deref`, which is where it gains most of its methods from. A few helper methods are added to acquire a slice of `u8` instead of `c_char`, as well as including a slice with the trailing nul byte if necessary. * All usage of non-owned `CString` values is now done via two functions inside of `std::ffi`, called `c_str_to_bytes` and `c_str_to_bytes_with_nul`. These functions are now the one method used to convert a `*const c_char` to a Rust slice of `u8`. Many more details, including newly deprecated methods, can be found linked in the RFC.

Remove deprecated functionality

2015-01-04T07:43:57+00:00

This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release. Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed). The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.

std: Stabilize the prelude module

2015-01-02T16:54:06+00:00

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports. Some reexports are kept around, however: * `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn. * `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed. * All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all at once to `std::io::prelude::*`. This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to find the locations of where to import them. [rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0503-prelude-stabilization.md [breaking-change] Closes #20068

std: Second pass stabilization for `ptr`

2014-12-29T23:57:28+00:00

This commit performs a second pass for stabilization over the `std::ptr` module. The specific actions taken were: * The `RawPtr` trait was renamed to `PtrExt` * The `RawMutPtr` trait was renamed to `MutPtrExt` * The module name `ptr` is now stable. * These functions were all marked `#[stable]` with no modification: * `null` * `null_mut` * `swap` * `replace` * `read` * `write` * `PtrExt::is_null` * `PtrExt::offset` * These functions remain unstable: * `as_ref`, `as_mut` - the return value of an `Option` is not fully expressive as null isn't the only bad value, and it's unclear whether we want to commit to these functions at this time. The reference/lifetime semantics as written are also problematic in how they encourage arbitrary lifetimes. * `zero_memory` - This function is currently not used at all in the distribution, and in general it plays a broader role in the "working with unsafe pointers" story. This story is not yet fully developed, so at this time the function remains unstable for now. * `read_and_zero` - This function remains unstable for largely the same reasons as `zero_memory`. * These functions are now all deprecated: * `PtrExt::null` - call `ptr::null` or `ptr::null_mut` instead. * `PtrExt::to_uint` - use an `as` expression instead. * `PtrExt::is_not_null` - use `!p.is_null()` instead.

std: Second pass stabilization for `comm`

2014-12-29T20:16:49+00:00

This commit is a second pass stabilization for the `std::comm` module, performing the following actions: * The entire `std::comm` module was moved under `std::sync::mpsc`. This movement reflects that channels are just yet another synchronization primitive, and they don't necessarily deserve a special place outside of the other concurrency primitives that the standard library offers. * The `send` and `recv` methods have all been removed. * The `send_opt` and `recv_opt` methods have been renamed to `send` and `recv`. This means that all send/receive operations return a `Result` now indicating whether the operation was successful or not. * The error type of `send` is now a `SendError` to implement a custom error message and allow for `unwrap()`. The error type contains an `into_inner` method to extract the value. * The error type of `recv` is now `RecvError` for the same reasons as `send`. * The `TryRecvError` and `TrySendError` types have had public reexports removed of their variants and the variant names have been tweaked with enum namespacing rules. * The `Messages` iterator is renamed to `Iter` This functionality is now all `#[stable]`: * `Sender` * `SyncSender` * `Receiver` * `std::sync::mpsc` * `channel` * `sync_channel` * `Iter` * `Sender::send` * `Sender::clone` * `SyncSender::send` * `SyncSender::try_send` * `SyncSender::clone` * `Receiver::recv` * `Receiver::try_recv` * `Receiver::iter` * `SendError` * `RecvError` * `TrySendError::{mod, Full, Disconnected}` * `TryRecvError::{mod, Empty, Disconnected}` * `SendError::into_inner` * `TrySendError::into_inner` This is a breaking change due to the modification of where this module is located, as well as the changing of the semantics of `send` and `recv`. Most programs just need to rename imports of `std::comm` to `std::sync::mpsc` and add calls to `unwrap` after a send or a receive operation. [breaking-change]

Utilize fewer reexports

In regards to: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/19253#issuecomment-64836729 This commit: * Changes the #deriving code so that it generates code that utilizes fewer reexports (in particur Option::* and Result::*), which is necessary to remove those reexports in the future * Changes other areas of the codebase so that fewer reexports are utilized
