From 2823be08b7d1b9106cbbd454437384c093c5a5fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Crichton Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2014 12:00:27 -0700 Subject: Register new snapshots This change starts denying `*T` in the parser. All code using `*T` should ensure that the FFI call does indeed take `const T*` on the other side before renaming the type to `*const T`. Otherwise, all code can rename `*T` to `*const T`.
