2014-05-07core: Inherit non-allocating slice functionalityAlex Crichton-1553/+18
This commit adds a new trait, MutableVectorAllocating, which represents functions on vectors which can allocate. This is another extension trait to slices which should be removed once a lang item exists for the ~ allocation.

2014-05-06librustc: Remove `~EXPR`, `~TYPE`, and `~PAT` from the language, exceptPatrick Walton-11/+6
for `~str`/`~[]`. Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for `Box<self>` before the snapshot. How to update your code: * Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`. * Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`. * Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

2014-05-05std: deprecate cast::transmute_mut.Huon Wilson-8/+12
Turning a `&T` into an `&mut T` carries a large risk of undefined behaviour, and needs to be done very very carefully. Providing a convenience function for exactly this task is a bad idea, just tempting people into doing the wrong thing. The right thing is to use types like `Cell`, `RefCell` or `Unsafe`. For memory safety, Rust has that guarantee that `&mut` pointers do not alias with any other pointer, that is, if you have a `&mut T` then that is the only usable pointer to that `T`. This allows Rust to assume that writes through a `&mut T` do not affect the values of any other `&` or `&mut` references. `&` pointers have no guarantees about aliasing or not, so it's entirely possible for the same pointer to be passed into both arguments of a function like fn foo(x: &int, y: &int) { ... } Converting either of `x` or `y` to a `&mut` pointer and modifying it would affect the other value: invalid behaviour. (Similarly, it's undefined behaviour to modify the value of an immutable local, like `let x = 1;`.) At a low-level, the *only* safe way to obtain an `&mut` out of a `&` is using the `Unsafe` type (there are higher level wrappers around it, like `Cell`, `RefCell`, `Mutex` etc.). The `Unsafe` type is registered with the compiler so that it can reason a little about these `&` to `&mut` casts, but it is still up to the user to ensure that the `&mut`s obtained out of an `Unsafe` never alias. (Note that *any* conversion from `&` to `&mut` can be invalid, including a plain `transmute`, or casting `&T` -> `*T` -> `*mut T` -> `&mut T`.) [breaking-change]
2014-05-03rustdoc: Migrate from sundown to hoedownAlex Crichton-4/+4
This primary fix brought on by this upgrade is the proper matching of the ``` and ~~~ doc blocks. This also moves hoedown to a git submodule rather than a bundled repository. Additionally, hoedown is stricter about code blocks, so this ended up fixing a lot of invalid code blocks (ending with " ```" instead of "```", or ending with "~~~~" instead of "~~~"). Closes #12776

2014-04-28Deprecate the rev_iter pattern in all places where a DoubleEndedIterator is ↵Jonathan S-18/+25
provided (everywhere but treemap) This commit deprecates rev_iter, mut_rev_iter, move_rev_iter everywhere (except treemap) and also deprecates related functions like rsplit, rev_components, and rev_str_components. In every case, these functions can be replaced with the non-reversed form followed by a call to .rev(). To make this more concrete, a translation table for all functional changes necessary follows: * container.rev_iter() -> container.iter().rev() * container.mut_rev_iter() -> container.mut_iter().rev() * container.move_rev_iter() -> container.move_iter().rev() * sliceorstr.rsplit(sep) -> sliceorstr.split(sep).rev() * path.rev_components() -> path.components().rev() * path.rev_str_components() -> path.str_components().rev() In terms of the type system, this change also deprecates any specialized reversed iterator types (except in treemap), opting instead to use Rev directly if any type annotations are needed. However, since methods directly returning reversed iterators are now discouraged, the need for such annotations should be small. However, in those cases, the general pattern for conversion is to take whatever follows Rev in the original reversed name and surround it with Rev<>: * RevComponents<'a> -> Rev<Components<'a>> * RevStrComponents<'a> -> Rev<StrComponents<'a>> * RevItems<'a, T> -> Rev<Items<'a, T>> * etc. The reasoning behind this change is that it makes the standard API much simpler without reducing readability, performance, or power. The presence of functions such as rev_iter adds more boilerplate code to libraries (all of which simply call .iter().rev()), clutters up the documentation, and only helps code by saving two characters. Additionally, the numerous type synonyms that were used to make the type signatures look nice like RevItems add even more boilerplate and clutter up the docs even more. With this change, all that cruft goes away. [breaking-change]
2014-04-28Provide an implementation of DoubleEndedIterator for the results of ↵Jonathan S-58/+53
&[T]::split and &[T]::rsplit This makes the splitting functions in std::slice return DoubleEndedIterators. Unfortunately, splitn and rsplitn cannot provide such an interface and so must return different types. As a result, the following changes were made: * RevSplits was removed in favor of explicitly using Rev * Splits can no longer bound the number of splits done * Splits now implements DoubleEndedIterator * SplitsN was added, taking the role of what both Splits and RevSplits used to be * rsplit returns Rev<Splits<'a, T>> instead of RevSplits<'a, T> * splitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of Splits<'a, T> * rsplitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of RevSplits<'a, T> All functions that were previously implemented on each return value still are, so outside of changing of type annotations, existing code should work out of the box. In the rare case that code relied on the return types of split and splitn or of rsplit and rsplitn being the same, the previous behavior can be emulated by calling splitn or rsplitn with a bount of uint::MAX. The value of this change comes in multiple parts: * Consistency. The splitting code in std::str is structured similarly to the new slice splitting code, having separate CharSplits and CharSplitsN types. * Smaller API. Although this commit doesn't implement it, using a DoubleEndedIterator for splitting means that rsplit, path::RevComponents, path::RevStrComponents, Path::rev_components, and Path::rev_str_components are no longer needed - they can be emulated simply with .rev(). * Power. DoubleEndedIterators are able to traverse the list from both sides at once instead of only forwards or backwards. * Efficiency. For the common case of using split instead of splitn, the iterator is slightly smaller and slightly faster. [breaking-change]

2014-04-23auto merge of #13686 : alexcrichton/rust/issue-12224, r=nikomatsakisbors-7/+8
This alters the borrow checker's requirements on invoking closures from requiring an immutable borrow to requiring a unique immutable borrow. This means that it is illegal to invoke a closure through a `&` pointer because there is no guarantee that is not aliased. This does not mean that a closure is required to be in a mutable location, but rather a location which can be proven to be unique (often through a mutable pointer). For example, the following code is unsound and is no longer allowed: type Fn<'a> = ||:'a; fn call(f: |Fn|) { f(|| { f(|| {}) }); } fn main() { call(|a| { a(); }); } There is no replacement for this pattern. For all closures which are stored in structures, it was previously allowed to invoke the closure through `&self` but it now requires invocation through `&mut self`. The standard library has a good number of violations of this new rule, but the fixes will be separated into multiple breaking change commits. Closes #12224

2014-04-23std: Change RandomAccessIterator to use `&mut self`Alex Crichton-2/+2
Many iterators go through a closure when dealing with the `idx` method, which are invalid after the previous change (closures cannot be invoked through a `&` pointer). This commit alters the `fn idx` method on the RandomAccessIterator to take `&mut self` rather than `&self`. [breaking-change]

2014-04-18std: Make ~[T] no longer a growable vectorAlex Crichton-834/+218
This removes all resizability support for ~[T] vectors in preparation of DST. The only growable vector remaining is Vec<T>. In summary, the following methods from ~[T] and various functions were removed. Each method/function has an equivalent on the Vec type in std::vec unless otherwise stated. * slice::OwnedCloneableVector * slice::OwnedEqVector * slice::append * slice::append_one * slice::build (no replacement) * slice::bytes::push_bytes * slice::from_elem * slice::from_fn * slice::with_capacity * ~[T].capacity() * ~[T].clear() * ~[T].dedup() * ~[T].extend() * ~[T].grow() * ~[T].grow_fn() * ~[T].grow_set() * ~[T].insert() * ~[T].pop() * ~[T].push() * ~[T].push_all() * ~[T].push_all_move() * ~[T].remove() * ~[T].reserve() * ~[T].reserve_additional() * ~[T].reserve_exect() * ~[T].retain() * ~[T].set_len() * ~[T].shift() * ~[T].shrink_to_fit() * ~[T].swap_remove() * ~[T].truncate() * ~[T].unshift() * ~str.clear() * ~str.set_len() * ~str.truncate() Note that no other API changes were made. Existing apis that took or returned ~[T] continue to do so. [breaking-change]

2014-04-13rustdoc: Fix rendering closures and trait boundsAlex Crichton-2/+7
Closures did not have their bounds printed at all, nor their lifetimes. Trait bounds were also printed in angle brackets rather than after a colon with a '+' inbetween them. Note that on the current task::spawn [1] documentation page, there is no mention of a `Send` bound even though it is crucially important!

2014-03-23auto merge of #13102 : huonw/rust/totaleq-deriving, r=thestingerbors-10/+2
std: remove the `equals` method from `TotalEq`. `TotalEq` is now just an assertion about the `Eq` impl of a type (i.e. `==` is a total equality if a type implements `TotalEq`) so the extra method is just confusing. Also, a new method magically appeared as a hack to allow deriving to assert that the contents of a struct/enum are also TotalEq, because the deriving infrastructure makes it very hard to do anything but create a trait method. (You didn't hear about this horrible work-around from me :(.)

This needs to be removed as part of removing `~[T]`. Partial type hints are now allowed, and will remove the need to add a version of this method for `Vec<T>`. For now, this involves a few workarounds for partial type hints not completely working.
