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]

std::sync::TaskPool: Improve module documentation

2014-06-20T03:17:49+00:00

The struct and module doc comments are reformulated. The `execute` method's documentation are put up to date, and failure information is added. A test is also added to address the possible failure.

std: Don't fail the task when a Future is dropped

2014-06-17T01:16:14+00:00

It's a benign failure that no one needs to know about. Closes #14892

sync: Move underneath libstd

2014-06-11T17:00:43+00:00

This commit is the final step in the libstd facade, #13851. The purpose of this commit is to move libsync underneath the standard library, behind the facade. This will allow core primitives like channels, queues, and atomics to all live in the same location. There were a few notable changes and a few breaking changes as part of this movement: * The `Vec` and `String` types are reexported at the top level of libcollections * The `unreachable!()` macro was copied to libcore * The `std::rt::thread` module was moved to librustrt, but it is still reexported at the same location. * The `std::comm` module was moved to libsync * The `sync::comm` module was moved under `sync::comm`, and renamed to `duplex`. It is now a private module with types/functions being reexported under `sync::comm`. This is a breaking change for any existing users of duplex streams. * All concurrent queues/deques were moved directly under libsync. They are also all marked with #![experimental] for now if they are public. * The `task_pool` and `future` modules no longer live in libsync, but rather live under `std::sync`. They will forever live at this location, but they may move to libsync if the `std::task` module moves as well. [breaking-change]

std: Deal with fallout of rtio changes

std: Rename {Eq,Ord} to Partial{Eq,Ord}

2014-05-30T22:52:24+00:00

This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord} or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}. cc #12517 [breaking-change]

std: minor simplification to sync::deque.

std,green: Mark some queue types as NoShare

std: Remove UnsafeArc

2014-05-20T01:12:18+00:00

This type has been superseded by Arc>. The UnsafeArc type is a relic of an era that has long since past, and with the introduction of liballoc the standard library is able to use the Arc smart pointer. With little need left for UnsafeArc, it was removed. All existing code using UnsafeArc should either be reevaluated to whether it can use only Arc, or it should transition to Arc> [breaking-change]

std: Move comm primitives away from UnsafeArc

2014-05-20T00:50:57+00:00

They currently still use `&mut self`, this migration was aimed towards moving from UnsafeArc to Arc>
