2014-03-01libsyntax: Mechanically change `~[T]` to `Vec<T>`Patrick Walton-600/+556
2014-02-28syntax: Expand format!() deterministicallyAlex Crichton-13/+26
Previously, format!("{a}{b}", a=foo(), b=bar()) has foo() and bar() run in a nondeterminisc order. This is clearly a non-desirable property, so this commit uses iteration over a list instead of iteration over a hash map to provide deterministic code generation of these format arguments.
2014-02-27Fix syntax::ext::deriving{,::*} docs formatting.Chris Morgan-15/+17
The most significant fix is for `syntax::ext::deriving::encodable`, where one of the blocks of code, auspiciously containing `<S>` (recall that Markdown allows arbitrary HTML to be contained inside it), was not formatted as a code block, with a fun but messy effect.

2014-02-23auto merge of #12338 : edwardw/rust/hygienic-break-continue, r=cmrbors-4/+32
Makes labelled loops hygiene by performing renaming of the labels defined in e.g. `'x: loop { ... }` and then used in break and continue statements within loop body so that they act hygienically when used with macros. Closes #12262.

2014-02-23Move std::{trie, hashmap} to libcollectionsAlex Crichton-5/+6
These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments. This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap', although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.

2014-02-21std: rewrite Hash to make it more genericErick Tryzelaar-6/+105
This patch merges IterBytes and Hash traits, which clears up the confusion of using `#[deriving(IterBytes)]` to support hashing. Instead, it now is much easier to use the new `#[deriving(Hash)]` for making a type hashable with a stream hash. Furthermore, it supports custom non-stream-based hashers, such as if a value's hash was cached in a database. This does not yet replace the old IterBytes-hash with this new version.

2014-02-19librustc: Remove unique vector patterns from the language.Patrick Walton-53/+56
Preparatory work for removing unique vectors from the language, which is itself preparatory work for dynamically sized types.
2014-02-19auto merge of #12349 : edwardw/rust/debug-expansion, r=huonwbors-6/+40
Currently, the format_args! macro and its downstream macros in turn expand to series of let statements, one for each of its arguments, and then the invocation of the macro function. If one or more of the arguments are RefCell's, the enclosing statement for the temporary of the let is the let itself, which leads to scope problem. This patch changes let's to a match expression. Closes #12239.

2014-02-18Avoid returning original macro if expansion fails.Douglas Young-28/+34
Closes #11692. Instead of returning the original expression, a dummy expression (with identical span) is returned. This prevents infinite loops of failed expansions as well as odd double error messages in certain situations.

2014-02-14Expand ItemDecorator extensions in all contextsSteven Fackler-52/+33
Now that fold_item can return multiple items, this is pretty trivial. It also recursively expands generated items so ItemDecorators can generate items that are tagged with ItemDecorators! Closes #4913
2014-02-14auto merge of #12234 : sfackler/rust/restructure-item-decorator, r=huonwbors-74/+76
The old method of building up a list of items and threading it through all of the decorators was unwieldy and not really scalable as non-deriving ItemDecorators become possible. The API is now that the decorator gets an immutable reference to the item it's attached to, and a callback that it can pass new items to. If we want to add syntax extensions that can modify the item they're attached to, we can add that later, but I think it'll have to be separate from ItemDecorator to avoid strange ordering issues. @huonw

2014-02-13auto merge of #12017 : FlaPer87/rust/replace-mod-crate, r=alexcrichtonbors-13/+13
The first setp for #9880 is to add a new `crate` keyword. This PR does exactly that. I took a chance to refactor `parse_item_foreign_mod` and I broke it down into 2 separate methods to isolate each feature. The next step will be to push a new stage0 snapshot and then get rid of all `extern mod` around the code.
2014-02-13Stop unloading syntax librariesSteven Fackler-11/+7
Externally loaded libraries are able to do things that cause references to them to survive past the expansion phase (e.g. creating @-box cycles, launching a task or storing something in task local data). As such, the library has to stay loaded for the lifetime of the process.
2014-02-13Replace `crate` usage with `krate`Flavio Percoco-13/+13
This patch replaces all `crate` usage with `krate` before introducing the new keyword. This ensures that after introducing the keyword, there won't be any compilation errors. krate might not be the most expressive substitution for crate but it's a very close abbreviation for it. `module` was already used in several places already.

fourcc!() allows you to embed FourCC (or OSType) values that are evaluated as u32 literals. It takes a 4-byte ASCII string and produces the u32 resulting in interpreting those 4 bytes as a u32, using either the platform-native endianness, or explicitly as big or little endian.

2014-02-06auto merge of #12039 : alexcrichton/rust/no-conditions, r=brsonbors-11/+14
This has been a long time coming. Conditions in rust were initially envisioned as being a good alternative to error code return pattern. The idea is that all errors are fatal-by-default, and you can opt-in to handling the error by registering an error handler. While sounding nice, conditions ended up having some unforseen shortcomings: * Actually handling an error has some very awkward syntax: let mut result = None; let mut answer = None; io::io_error::cond.trap(|e| { result = Some(e) }).inside(|| { answer = Some(some_io_operation()); }); match result { Some(err) => { /* hit an I/O error */ } None => { let answer = answer.unwrap(); /* deal with the result of I/O */ } } This pattern can certainly use functions like io::result, but at its core actually handling conditions is fairly difficult * The "zero value" of a function is often confusing. One of the main ideas behind using conditions was to change the signature of I/O functions. Instead of read_be_u32() returning a result, it returned a u32. Errors were notified via a condition, and if you caught the condition you understood that the "zero value" returned is actually a garbage value. These zero values are often difficult to understand, however. One case of this is the read_bytes() function. The function takes an integer length of the amount of bytes to read, and returns an array of that size. The array may actually be shorter, however, if an error occurred. Another case is fs::stat(). The theoretical "zero value" is a blank stat struct, but it's a little awkward to create and return a zero'd out stat struct on a call to stat(). In general, the return value of functions that can raise error are much more natural when using a Result as opposed to an always-usable zero-value. * Conditions impose a necessary runtime requirement on *all* I/O. In theory I/O is as simple as calling read() and write(), but using conditions imposed the restriction that a rust local task was required if you wanted to catch errors with I/O. While certainly an surmountable difficulty, this was always a bit of a thorn in the side of conditions. * Functions raising conditions are not always clear that they are raising conditions. This suffers a similar problem to exceptions where you don't actually know whether a function raises a condition or not. The documentation likely explains, but if someone retroactively adds a condition to a function there's nothing forcing upstream users to acknowledge a new point of task failure. * Libaries using I/O are not guaranteed to correctly raise on conditions when an error occurs. In developing various I/O libraries, it's much easier to just return `None` from a read rather than raising an error. The silent contract of "don't raise on EOF" was a little difficult to understand and threw a wrench into the answer of the question "when do I raise a condition?" Many of these difficulties can be overcome through documentation, examples, and general practice. In the end, all of these difficulties added together ended up being too overwhelming and improving various aspects didn't end up helping that much. A result-based I/O error handling strategy also has shortcomings, but the cognitive burden is much smaller. The tooling necessary to make this strategy as usable as conditions were is much smaller than the tooling necessary for conditions. Perhaps conditions may manifest themselves as a future entity, but for now we're going to remove them from the standard library. Closes #9795 Closes #8968
