2015-01-06core: split into fmt::Show and fmt::StringSean McArthur-2/+2
fmt::Show is for debugging, and can and should be implemented for all public types. This trait is used with `{:?}` syntax. There still exists #[derive(Show)]. fmt::String is for types that faithfully be represented as a String. Because of this, there is no way to derive fmt::String, all implementations must be purposeful. It is used by the default format syntax, `{}`. This will break most instances of `{}`, since that now requires the type to impl fmt::String. In most cases, replacing `{}` with `{:?}` is the correct fix. Types that were being printed specifically for users should receive a fmt::String implementation to fix this. Part of #20013 [breaking-change]

2015-01-03Remove deprecated functionalityAlex Crichton-2/+2
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.

2015-01-02std: Stabilize the prelude moduleAlex Crichton-2/+2
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

followed by a semicolon. This allows code like `vec![1i, 2, 3].len();` to work. This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting semicolons after them, such as: fn main() { ... assert!(a == b) assert!(c == d) println(...); } It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons: local_data_key!(foo) fn main() { println("hello world") } Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as follows: fn main() { ... assert!(a == b); assert!(c == d); println(...); } local_data_key!(foo); fn main() { println("hello world") } RFC #378. Closes #18635.

2014-12-08librustc: Make `Copy` opt-in.Niko Matsakis-1/+6
This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for MyType {}`. A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have implemented `Copy` but didn't. For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using `#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should transition your code away from using it. This breaks code like: #[deriving(Show)] struct Point2D { x: int, y: int, } fn main() { let mypoint = Point2D { x: 1, y: 1, }; let otherpoint = mypoint; println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint); } Change this code to: #[deriving(Show)] struct Point2D { x: int, y: int, } impl Copy for Point2D {} fn main() { let mypoint = Point2D { x: 1, y: 1, }; let otherpoint = mypoint; println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint); } This is the backwards-incompatible part of #13231. Part of RFC #3. [breaking-change]
2014-12-08auto merge of #19378 : japaric/rust/no-as-slice, r=alexcrichtonbors-3/+3
Now that we have an overloaded comparison (`==`) operator, and that `Vec`/`String` deref to `[T]`/`str` on method calls, many `as_slice()`/`as_mut_slice()`/`to_string()` calls have become redundant. This patch removes them. These were the most common patterns: - `assert_eq(test_output.as_slice(), "ground truth")` -> `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth")` - `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth".to_string())` -> `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth")` - `vec.as_mut_slice().sort()` -> `vec.sort()` - `vec.as_slice().slice(from, to)` -> `vec.slice(from_to)` --- Note that e.g. `a_string.push_str(b_string.as_slice())` has been left untouched in this PR, since we first need to settle down whether we want to favor the `&*b_string` or the `b_string[]` notation. This is rebased on top of #19167 cc @alexcrichton @aturon

2014-11-23std: Add a new top-level thread_local moduleAlex Crichton-19/+12
This commit removes the `std::local_data` module in favor of a new `std::thread_local` module providing thread local storage. The module provides two variants of TLS: one which owns its contents and one which is based on scoped references. Each implementation has pros and cons listed in the documentation. Both flavors have accessors through a function called `with` which yield a reference to a closure provided. Both flavors also panic if a reference cannot be yielded and provide a function to test whether an access would panic or not. This is an implementation of [RFC 461][rfc] and full details can be found in that RFC. This is a breaking change due to the removal of the `std::local_data` module. All users can migrate to the new thread local system like so: thread_local!(static FOO: Rc<RefCell<Option<T>>> = Rc::new(RefCell::new(None))) The old `local_data` module inherently contained the `Rc<RefCell<Option<T>>>` as an implementation detail which must now be explicitly stated by users.

2014-10-29Rename fail! to panic!Steve Klabnik-6/+6
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.

2014-08-21auto merge of #16362 : nham/rust/std_rand_pi_example, r=huonwbors-0/+43
Pros: I like this example because it's concise without being trivial. The Monty Hall example code is somewhat lengthy and possibly inaccessible to those unfamiliar with probability. Cons: The Monty Hall example already exists. Do we need another example? Also, this is probably inaccessible to people who don't know basic geometry.

2014-06-30libstd: set baseline stability levels.Aaron Turon-0/+2
Earlier commits have established a baseline of `experimental` stability for all crates under the facade (so their contents are considered experimental within libstd). Since `experimental` is `allow` by default, we should use the same baseline stability for libstd itself. This commit adds `experimental` tags to all of the modules defined in `std`, and `unstable` to `std` itself.

2014-05-29std: Recreate a `rand` moduleAlex Crichton-0/+525
This commit shuffles around some of the `rand` code, along with some reorganization. The new state of the world is as follows: * The librand crate now only depends on libcore. This interface is experimental. * The standard library has a new module, `std::rand`. This interface will eventually become stable. Unfortunately, this entailed more of a breaking change than just shuffling some names around. The following breaking changes were made to the rand library: * Rng::gen_vec() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_iter() which will return an infinite stream of random values. Previous behavior can be regained with `rng.gen_iter().take(n).collect()` * Rng::gen_ascii_str() was removed. This has been replaced with Rng::gen_ascii_chars() which will return an infinite stream of random ascii characters. Similarly to gen_iter(), previous behavior can be emulated with `rng.gen_ascii_chars().take(n).collect()` * {IsaacRng, Isaac64Rng, XorShiftRng}::new() have all been removed. These all relied on being able to use an OSRng for seeding, but this is no longer available in librand (where these types are defined). To retain the same functionality, these types now implement the `Rand` trait so they can be generated with a random seed from another random number generator. This allows the stdlib to use an OSRng to create seeded instances of these RNGs. * Rand implementations for `Box<T>` and `@T` were removed. These seemed to be pretty rare in the codebase, and it allows for librand to not depend on liballoc. Additionally, other pointer types like Rc<T> and Arc<T> were not supported. If this is undesirable, librand can depend on liballoc and regain these implementations. * The WeightedChoice structure is no longer built with a `Vec<Weighted<T>>`, but rather a `&mut [Weighted<T>]`. This means that the WeightedChoice structure now has a lifetime associated with it. * The `sample` method on `Rng` has been moved to a top-level function in the `rand` module due to its dependence on `Vec`. cc #13851 [breaking-change]
2014-03-12std: Move rand to librand.Huon Wilson-906/+0
This functionality is not super-core and so doesn't need to be included in std. It's possible that std may need rand (it does a little bit now, for io::test) in which case the functionality required could be moved to a secret hidden module and reexposed by librand. Unfortunately, using #[deprecated] here is hard: there's too much to mock to make it feasible, since we have to ensure that programs still typecheck to reach the linting phase.

2014-01-11Remove re-exports of std::io::stdio::{print, println} in the prelude.Brendan Zabarauskas-1/+1
The `print!` and `println!` macros are now the preferred method of printing, and so there is no reason to export the `stdio` functions in the prelude. The functions have also been replaced by their macro counterparts in the tutorial and other documentation so that newcomers don't get confused about what they should be using.
