2015-02-11rustc: Fix a number of stability lint holesAlex Crichton-2/+2
There are a number of holes that the stability lint did not previously cover, including: * Types * Bounds on type parameters on functions and impls * Where clauses * Imports * Patterns (structs and enums) These holes have all been fixed by overriding the `visit_path` function on the AST visitor instead of a few specialized cases. This change also necessitated a few stability changes: * The `collections::fmt` module is now stable (it was already supposed to be). * The `thread_local::imp::Key` type is now stable (it was already supposed to be). * The `std::rt::{begin_unwind, begin_unwind_fmt}` functions are now stable. These are required via the `panic!` macro. * The `std::old_io::stdio::{println, println_args}` functions are now stable. These are required by the `print!` and `println!` macros. * The `ops::{FnOnce, FnMut, Fn}` traits are now `#[stable]`. This is required to make bounds with these traits stable. Note that manual implementations of these traits are still gated by default, this stability only allows bounds such as `F: FnOnce()`. Additionally, the compiler now has special logic to ignore its own generated `__test` module for the `--test` harness in terms of stability. Closes #8962 Closes #16360 Closes #20327 [breaking-change]
2014-12-18Revise std::thread API to join by defaultAaron Turon-2/+3
This commit is part of a series that introduces a `std::thread` API to replace `std::task`. In the new API, `spawn` returns a `JoinGuard`, which by default will join the spawned thread when dropped. It can also be used to join explicitly at any time, returning the thread's result. Alternatively, the spawned thread can be explicitly detached (so no join takes place). As part of this change, Rust processes now terminate when the main thread exits, even if other detached threads are still running, moving Rust closer to standard threading models. This new behavior may break code that was relying on the previously implicit join-all. In addition to the above, the new thread API also offers some built-in support for building blocking abstractions in user space; see the module doc for details. Closes #18000 [breaking-change]
2014-12-18libs: merge librustrt into libstdAaron Turon-0/+34
This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system. Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be removed very soon. [breaking-change]
