2014-05-11core: Remove the cast moduleAlex Crichton-127/+0
This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely, folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate of each function in the `cast` module. * transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as #[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute` function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment). For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898 * transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This function is now #[stable] * forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable] * bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of managed boxes as well as its questionable utility. * transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part of this commit. * transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was removed. * transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong indication that code is incorrect in the first place. * transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as `transmute_lifetime` * copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked `#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in the future if it is found to not be very useful. * copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same treatment as `copy_lifetime`. * copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today, and its existence is not necessary with DST (copy_lifetime will suffice). In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the functions were moved to the `mem` module. transmute - #[unstable] transmute_copy - #[stable] forget - #[stable] copy_lifetime - #[unstable] copy_mut_lifetime - #[unstable] [breaking-change]
2014-05-07std: Change names of transmute's type parametersBrian Anderson-1/+1
from L, G to T, U. I don't know what L and G mean. T, U easier to understand.

Prioritize `transmute` and `forget`.

2014-05-07core: Get coretest workingAlex Crichton-1/+1
This mostly involved frobbing imports between realstd, realcore, and the core being test. Some of the imports are a little counterintuitive, but it mainly focuses around libcore's types not implementing Show while libstd's types implement Show.

pub mod or pub fn).
2013-03-29Add AbiSet and integrate it into the AST.Niko Matsakis-1/+1
I believe this patch incorporates all expected syntax changes from extern function reform (#3678). You can now write things like: extern "<abi>" fn foo(s: S) -> T { ... } extern "<abi>" mod { ... } extern "<abi>" fn(S) -> T The ABI for foreign functions is taken from this syntax (rather than from an annotation). We support the full ABI specification I described on the mailing list. The correct ABI is chosen based on the target architecture. Calls by pointer to C functions are not yet supported, and the Rust type of crust fns is still *u8.

2012-10-04Forbid deprecated modes again in coreTim Chevalier-0/+1
Sadly, there's only one file that requires deprecated modes (stackwalk)... So, forbid them everywhere else.
2012-10-02Removing explicit uses of + modeTim Chevalier-9/+9
This removes most explicit uses of the + argument mode. Pending a snapshot, I had to remove the forbid(deprecated_modes) pragma from a bunch of files. I'll put it back! + mode still has to be used in a few places for functions that get moved (see task.rs) The changes outside core and std are due to the to_bytes trait and making the compiler (with legacy modes on) agree with the libraries (with legacy modes off) about modes.

Needs a snapshot before this can be completed, because I changed the mode for conv_poly.
