[breaking-change] 1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code. 2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible. 3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.
2014-08-18libsyntax: Remove the `use foo = bar` syntax from the language in favorPatrick Walton-5/+5
of `use bar as foo`. Change all uses of `use foo = bar` to `use bar as foo`. Implements RFC #47. Closes #16461. [breaking-change]
2014-08-16librustc: Forbid external crates, imports, and/or items from beingPatrick Walton-2/+14
declared with the same name in the same scope. This breaks several common patterns. First are unused imports: use foo::bar; use baz::bar; Change this code to the following: use baz::bar; Second, this patch breaks globs that import names that are shadowed by subsequent imports. For example: use foo::*; // including `bar` use baz::bar; Change this code to remove the glob: use foo::{boo, quux}; use baz::bar; Or qualify all uses of `bar`: use foo::{boo, quux}; use baz; ... baz::bar ... Finally, this patch breaks code that, at top level, explicitly imports `std` and doesn't disable the prelude. extern crate std; Because the prelude imports `std` implicitly, there is no need to explicitly import it; just remove such directives. The old behavior can be opted into via the `import_shadowing` feature gate. Use of this feature gate is discouraged. This implements RFC #116. Closes #16464. [breaking-change]
2014-08-14librustc: Stop assuming that implementations and traits only containPatrick Walton-11/+48
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.
2014-08-14librustc: Tie up loose ends in unboxed closures.Patrick Walton-19/+62
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it prevents lifetimes from leaking out of unboxed closures; (2) it allows unboxed closure type notation, call notation, and construction notation to construct closures matching any of the three traits. This breaks code that looked like: let mut f; { let x = &5i; f = |&mut:| *x + 10; } Change this code to avoid having a reference escape. For example: { let x = &5i; let mut f; // <-- move here to avoid dangling reference f = |&mut:| *x + 10; } I believe this is enough to consider unboxed closures essentially implemented. Further issues (for example, higher-rank lifetimes) should be filed as followups. Closes #14449. [breaking-change]
2014-08-13librustc: Parse, but do not fully turn on, the `ref` keyword forPatrick Walton-1/+27
by-reference upvars. This partially implements RFC 38. A snapshot will be needed to turn this on, because stage0 cannot yet parse the keyword. Part of #12381.

2014-07-31Move SeekableMemWriter into librbmlErick Tryzelaar-1/+1
2014-07-31remove serialize::ebml, add librbmlErick Tryzelaar-151/+150
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]
2014-07-29remove seek from std::io::MemWriter, add SeekableMemWriter to librustcErick Tryzelaar-5/+3
Not all users of MemWriter need to seek, but having MemWriter seekable adds between 3-29% in overhead in certain circumstances. This fixes that performance gap by making a non-seekable MemWriter, and creating a new SeekableMemWriter for those circumstances when that functionality is actually needed. ``` test io::mem::test::bench_buf_reader ... bench: 682 ns/iter (+/- 85) test io::mem::test::bench_buf_writer ... bench: 580 ns/iter (+/- 57) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_reader ... bench: 793 ns/iter (+/- 99) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0000 ... bench: 48 ns/iter (+/- 27) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0010 ... bench: 65 ns/iter (+/- 27) = 153 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_0100 ... bench: 132 ns/iter (+/- 12) = 757 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_001_1000 ... bench: 802 ns/iter (+/- 151) = 1246 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0000 ... bench: 481 ns/iter (+/- 28) test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0010 ... bench: 1957 ns/iter (+/- 126) = 510 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_0100 ... bench: 8222 ns/iter (+/- 434) = 1216 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_mem_writer_100_1000 ... bench: 82496 ns/iter (+/- 11191) = 1212 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0000 ... bench: 48 ns/iter (+/- 2) test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0010 ... bench: 64 ns/iter (+/- 2) = 156 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_0100 ... bench: 129 ns/iter (+/- 7) = 775 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_001_1000 ... bench: 801 ns/iter (+/- 159) = 1248 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0000 ... bench: 711 ns/iter (+/- 51) test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0010 ... bench: 2532 ns/iter (+/- 227) = 394 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_0100 ... bench: 8962 ns/iter (+/- 947) = 1115 MB/s test io::mem::test::bench_seekable_mem_writer_100_1000 ... bench: 85086 ns/iter (+/- 11555) = 1175 MB/s ``` [breaking-change]

2014-07-17librustc: Remove cross-borrowing of `Box<T>` to `&T` from the language,Patrick Walton-2/+3
except where trait objects are involved. Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects. Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we have DST. This will break code like: fn foo(x: &int) { ... } let a = box 3i; foo(a); Change this code to: fn foo(x: &int) { ... } let a = box 3i; foo(&*a); [breaking-change]

This is nice for macros, to allow them to expand into multiple methods
2014-07-13refactor Method definition to make space for macrosJohn Clements-1/+1
This change propagates to many locations, but because of the Macro Exterminator (or, more properly, the invariant that it protects), macro invocations can't occur downstream of expansion. This means that in librustc and librustdoc, extracting the desired field can simply assume that it can't be a macro invocation. Functions in ast_util abstract over this check.

2014-07-05Refactored VecPerParamSpace to hide exposure of `Vec` representation.Felix S. Klock II-1/+1
This basically meant changing the interface so that no borrowed `&Vec` is exposed, by hiding `fn get_vec` and `fn get_mut_vec` and revising `fn all_vecs`. Instead, clients should use one of the other methods; `get_slice`, `pop`, `truncate`, `replace`, `push_all`, or `is_empty_in`, which should work for any case currently used in rustc.

This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental type in the prelude by default. Closes #14193 [breaking-change]
2014-06-13Introduce VecPerParamSpace and use it to represent sets of types andNiko Matsakis-44/+81
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

2014-05-11core: Remove the cast moduleAlex Crichton-3/+3
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]
2014-05-09Currently trans uses Vec<ty::t> to represent substitutions instead of a properNiko Matsakis-9/+30
ty::substs struct. This is a holdover from the olden days of yore. This patch removes the last vestiges of that practice. This is part of the work I was doing on #5527.
2014-04-24Pre-step towards issue #12624 and others: Introduce ExprUseVisitor, remove theNiko Matsakis-65/+4
moves computation. ExprUseVisitor is a visitor that walks the AST for a function and calls a delegate to inform it where borrows, copies, and moves occur. In this patch, I rewrite the gather_loans visitor to use ExprUseVisitor, but in future patches, I think we could rewrite regionck, check_loans, and possibly other passes to use it as well. This would refactor the repeated code between those places that tries to determine where copies/moves/etc occur.
