This commit handles the fallout from deprecating `_with` and `_equiv` methods.
2014-11-17Switch to purely namespaced enumsSteven Fackler-0/+3
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to refer to the new locations: ``` pub enum Foo { A, B } fn main() { let a = A; } ``` => ``` pub use self::Foo::{A, B}; pub enum Foo { A, B } fn main() { let a = A; } ``` or ``` pub enum Foo { A, B } fn main() { let a = Foo::A; } ``` [breaking-change]

2014-10-31DSTify HashJorge Aparicio-1/+1
- The signature of the `*_equiv` methods of `HashMap` and similar structures have changed, and now require one less level of indirection. Change your code from: ``` hashmap.find_equiv(&"Hello"); hashmap.find_equiv(&&[0u8, 1, 2]); ``` to: ``` hashmap.find_equiv("Hello"); hashmap.find_equiv(&[0u8, 1, 2]); ``` - The generic parameter `T` of the `Hasher::hash<T>` method have become `Sized?`. Downstream code must add `Sized?` to that method in their implementations. For example: ``` impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher { fn hash<T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ } } ``` must be changed to: ``` impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher { fn hash<Sized? T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ } // ^^^^^^ } ``` [breaking-change]

2014-10-29Rename fail! to panic!Steve Klabnik-13/+13
https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/221 The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other circumlocutions. Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate out a section describing the "Err-producing" case. We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe. To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead. Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this will work on UNIX based systems: grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g' You can of course also do this by hand.

2014-10-24Overhaul typechecking of patternsJakub Bukaj-3/+8
Instead of checking patterns in a top-down fashion with a known expected type on entry, this changes makes typeck establish appropriate constraints between a pattern and the expression it destructures, and lets inference compute the final types or produce good error messages if it's impossible.

2014-10-19Remove a large amount of deprecated functionalityAlex Crichton-1/+1
Spring cleaning is here! In the Fall! This commit removes quite a large amount of deprecated functionality from the standard libraries. I tried to ensure that only old deprecated functionality was removed. This is removing lots and lots of deprecated features, so this is a breaking change. Please consult the deprecation messages of the deleted code to see how to migrate code forward if it still needs migration. [breaking-change]
2014-10-09rustc: Add `const` globals to the languageAlex Crichton-1/+4
This change is an implementation of [RFC 69][rfc] which adds a third kind of global to the language, `const`. This global is most similar to what the old `static` was, and if you're unsure about what to use then you should use a `const`. The semantics of these three kinds of globals are: * A `const` does not represent a memory location, but only a value. Constants are translated as rvalues, which means that their values are directly inlined at usage location (similar to a #define in C/C++). Constant values are, well, constant, and can not be modified. Any "modification" is actually a modification to a local value on the stack rather than the actual constant itself. Almost all values are allowed inside constants, whether they have interior mutability or not. There are a few minor restrictions listed in the RFC, but they should in general not come up too often. * A `static` now always represents a memory location (unconditionally). Any references to the same `static` are actually a reference to the same memory location. Only values whose types ascribe to `Sync` are allowed in a `static`. This restriction is in place because many threads may access a `static` concurrently. Lifting this restriction (and allowing unsafe access) is a future extension not implemented at this time. * A `static mut` continues to always represent a memory location. All references to a `static mut` continue to be `unsafe`. This is a large breaking change, and many programs will need to be updated accordingly. A summary of the breaking changes is: * Statics may no longer be used in patterns. Statics now always represent a memory location, which can sometimes be modified. To fix code, repurpose the matched-on-`static` to a `const`. static FOO: uint = 4; match n { FOO => { /* ... */ } _ => { /* ... */ } } change this code to: const FOO: uint = 4; match n { FOO => { /* ... */ } _ => { /* ... */ } } * Statics may no longer refer to other statics by value. Due to statics being able to change at runtime, allowing them to reference one another could possibly lead to confusing semantics. If you are in this situation, use a constant initializer instead. Note, however, that statics may reference other statics by address, however. * Statics may no longer be used in constant expressions, such as array lengths. This is due to the same restrictions as listed above. Use a `const` instead. [breaking-change] [rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/246

2014-10-01auto merge of #17653 : kaini/rust/master, r=alexcrichtonbors-2/+5
Fixes that unit-like structs cannot be used if they are re-exported and used in another crate. (ICE) The relevant changes are in `rustc::metadata::{decoder, encoder}` and `rustc::middle::ty`. A test case is included. The problem is that the expressoin `UnitStruct` is an `ExprPath` to an `DefFn`, which is of expr kind `RvalueDatumExpr`, but for unit-struct ctors the expr kind should be `RvalueDpsExpr`. I fixed this (in a I guess clean way) by introducing `CtorFn` in the metadata and including a `is_ctor` flag in `DefFn`.
2014-09-30Fixes ICE when using reexported unit-like structsMichael Kainer-2/+5
Fixes that unit-like structs cannot be used if they are reexported and used in another crate. The compiler fails with an ICE, because unit-like structs are exported as DefFn and the expression `UnitStruct` is interpreted as function pointer instead of a call to the constructor. To resolve this ambiguity tuple-like struct constructors are now exported as CtorFn. When `rustc::metadata::decoder` finds a CtorFn it sets a new flag `is_ctor` in DefFn to true. Relevant changes are in `rustc::metadata::{encoder, decoder}` and in `rustc::middle::ty`. Closes #12660 and #16973.
2014-09-30librustc: Stop looking in metadata in type contents.Patrick Walton-0/+11
4x improvement in pre-trans compile time for rustc.
2014-09-17librustc: Implement associated types behind a feature gate.Patrick Walton-2/+25
The implementation essentially desugars during type collection and AST type conversion time into the parameter scheme we have now. Only fully qualified names--e.g. `<T as Foo>::Bar`--are supported.
2014-09-17rustdoc: Correctly distinguish enums and typesP1start-2/+2
This is done by adding a new field to the `DefTy` variant of `middle::def::Def`, which also clarifies an error message in the process. Closes #16712.

2014-08-14librustc: Stop assuming that implementations and traits only containPatrick Walton-74/+107
methods. This paves the way to associated items by introducing an extra level of abstraction ("impl-or-trait item") between traits/implementations and methods. This new abstraction is encoded in the metadata and used throughout the compiler where appropriate. There are no functional changes; this is purely a refactoring.
2014-07-31remove serialize::ebml, add librbmlErick Tryzelaar-59/+59
Our implementation of ebml has diverged from the standard in order to better serve the needs of the compiler, so it doesn't make much sense to call what we have ebml anyore. Furthermore, our implementation is pretty crufty, and should eventually be rewritten into a format that better suits the needs of the compiler. This patch factors out serialize::ebml into librbml, otherwise known as the Really Bad Markup Language. This is a stopgap library that shouldn't be used by end users, and will eventually be replaced by something better. [breaking-change]

2014-07-28rustdoc: show struct field docs when inlinedCorey Richardson-0/+14
Some minor changes to the compiler to expose this information. Very inconvenient since struct fields aren't an item. Adds (yet another) table to metadata. Closes #15739
2014-07-16librustc: Implement the fully-expanded, UFCS form of explicit self.Patrick Walton-11/+14
This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no relation between the two regions before region substitution happens, while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation. This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language yet, however. [breaking-change]

formerly, the self identifier was being discarded during parsing, which stymies hygiene. The best fix here seems to be to attach a self identifier to ExplicitSelf_, a change that rippled through the rest of the compiler, but without any obvious damage.
2014-07-08auto merge of #15493 : brson/rust/tostr, r=pcwaltonbors-1/+1
This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075. Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path. Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage. Closes #15046.

2014-07-05rustc: Remove CrateId and all related supportAlex Crichton-16/+11
This commit removes all support in the compiler for the #[crate_id] attribute and all of its derivative infrastructure. A list of the functionality removed is: * The #[crate_id] attribute no longer exists * There is no longer the concept of a version of a crate * Version numbers are no longer appended to symbol names * The --crate-id command line option has been removed To migrate forward, rename #[crate_id] to #[crate_name] and only the name of the crate itself should be mentioned. The version/path of the old crate id should be removed. For a transitionary state, the #[crate_id] attribute is still accepted if the #[crate_name] is not present, but it is warned about if it is the only identifier present. RFC: 0035-remove-crate-id [breaking-change]
2014-07-01rustc: Remove `&str` indexing from the language.Brian Anderson-3/+3
Being able to index into the bytes of a string encourages poor UTF-8 hygiene. To get a view of `&[u8]` from either a `String` or `&str` slice, use the `as_bytes()` method. Closes #12710. [breaking-change]

2014-06-18Add stability inheritanceAaron Turon-0/+8
This commit makes several changes to the stability index infrastructure: * Stability levels are now inherited lexically, i.e., each item's stability level becomes the default for any nested items. * The computed stability level for an item is stored as part of the metadata. When using an item from an external crate, this data is looked up and cached. * The stability lint works from the computed stability level, rather than manual stability attribute annotations. However, the lint still checks only a limited set of item uses (e.g., it does not check every component of a path on import). This will be addressed in a later PR, as part of issue #8962. * The stability lint only applies to items originating from external crates, since the stability index is intended as a promise to downstream crates. * The "experimental" lint is now _allow_ by default. This is because almost all existing crates have been marked "experimental", pending library stabilization. With inheritance in place, this would generate a massive explosion of warnings for every Rust program. The lint should be changed back to deny-by-default after library stabilization is complete. * The "deprecated" lint still warns by default. The net result: we can begin tracking stability index for the standard libraries as we stabilize, without impacting most clients. Closes #13540.
2014-06-13Introduce VecPerParamSpace and use it to represent sets of types andNiko Matsakis-30/+38
parameters This involves numerous substeps: 1. Treat Self same as any other parameter. 2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters. 3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method, eliminating odd discrepancies. 4. Stop doing unspeakable things to static methods and instead just use the natural types, now that we can easily add the type parameters from trait into the method's polytype. 5. No doubt some more. It was hard to separate these into distinct commits. Fixes #13564

2014-06-09rustdoc: Correctly classify enums/typedefsAlex Crichton-0/+8
Both of these items are surfaced as a DefTy, so some extra logic was needed in the decoder module to figure out whether one is actually an enum or whether it's a typedef. Closes #14757
