Make sure Name, SyntaxContext and Ident are passed by value
Make sure Idents don't serve as keys (or parts of keys) in maps, Ident comparison is not well defined
This is a [breaking-change] for syntax extension authors. The fix is to use MultiModifier or MultiDecorator, which have the same functionality but are more flexible. Users of syntax extensions are unaffected.
This is theoretically a breaking change, but GitHub search turns up no
uses of it, and most non-built-in cfg's are passed via cargo features,
which look like `feature = "..."`, and hence can't overlap.
This pull request implements the functionality for [RFC 873](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0873-type-macros.md). This is currently just an update of @freebroccolo's branch from January, the corresponding commits are linked in each commit message.
@nikomatsakis and I had talked about updating the macro language to support a lifetime fragment specifier, and it is possible to do that work on this branch as well. If so we can (collectively) talk about it next week during the pre-RustCamp work week.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1184][rfc] which tweaks the behavior of
the `#![no_std]` attribute and adds a new `#![no_core]` attribute. The
`#![no_std]` attribute now injects `extern crate core` at the top of the crate
as well as the libcore prelude into all modules (in the same manner as the
standard library's prelude). The `#![no_core]` attribute disables both std and
core injection.

Even after expansion, the generated expressions still track depth of
such pushes (i.e. how often you have "pushed" without a corresponding
"pop"), and we add a rule that in a context with a positive
`push_unsafe!` depth, it is effectively an `unsafe` block context.
(This way, we can inject code that uses `unsafe` features, but still
contains within it a sub-expression that should inherit the outer
safety checking setting, outside of the injected code.)
This is a total hack; it not only needs a feature-gate, but probably
should be feature-gated forever (if possible).

Statement macros are now treated somewhat like item macros, in that a
statement macro can now expand into a series of statements, rather than
just a single statement.
This allows statement macros to be nested inside other kinds of macros and
expand properly, where previously the expansion would only work when no
nesting was present.
See: src/test/run-pass/macro-stmt_macro_in_expr_macro.rs
src/test/run-pass/macro-nested_stmt_macro.rs
This changes the interface of the MacResult trait. make_stmt has become
make_stmts and now returns a vector, rather than a single item. Plugin
writers who were implementing MacResult will have breakage, as well as
anyone using MacEager::stmt.
See: src/libsyntax/ext/base.rs
This also causes a minor difference in behavior to the diagnostics
produced by certain malformed macros.
See: src/test/compile-fail/macro-incomplete-parse.rs
- Functions in parser.rs return PResult<> rather than panicing
- Other functions in libsyntax call panic! explicitly for now if they rely on panicing behaviour.
- 'panictry!' macro added as scaffolding while converting panicing functions.
(This does the same as 'unwrap()' but is easier to grep for and turn into try!())
- Leaves panicing wrappers for the following functions so that the
quote_* macros behave the same:
- parse_expr, parse_item, parse_pat, parse_arm, parse_ty, parse_stmt
This permits all coercions to be performed in casts, but adds lints to warn in those cases.
Part of this patch moves cast checking to a later stage of type checking. We acquire obligations to check casts as part of type checking where we previously checked them. Once we have type checked a function or module, then we check any cast obligations which have been acquired. That means we have more type information available to check casts (this was crucial to making coercions work properly in place of some casts), but it means that casts cannot feed input into type inference.
[breaking change]
* Adds two new lints for trivial casts and trivial numeric casts, these are warn by default, but can cause errors if you build with warnings as errors. Previously, trivial numeric casts and casts to trait objects were allowed.
* The unused casts lint has gone.
* Interactions between casting and type inference have changed in subtle ways. Two ways this might manifest are:
- You may need to 'direct' casts more with extra type information, for example, in some cases where `foo as _ as T` succeeded, you may now need to specify the type for `_`
- Casts do not influence inference of integer types. E.g., the following used to type check:
```
let x = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
Because the cast would inform inference that `x` must have type `u32`. This no longer applies and the compiler will fallback to `i32` for `x` and thus there will be a type error in the cast. The solution is to add more type information:
```
let x: u32 = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
This is a hack, but I don't think we can do much better as long as `derive` is
running at the syntax expansion phase.
If the custom_derive feature gate is enabled, this works with user-defined
traits and syntax extensions. Without the gate, you can't use e.g. #[derive_Clone]
directly, so this does not change the stable language.
This commit also cleans up the deriving code somewhat, and forbids some
previously-meaningless attribute syntax. For this reason it's technically a
[breaking-change]
Unstable items used in a macro expansion will now always trigger
stability warnings, *unless* the unstable items are directly inside a
macro marked with `#[allow_internal_unstable]`. IOW, the compiler warns
unless the span of the unstable item is a subspan of the definition of a
macro marked with that attribute.
E.g.
#[allow_internal_unstable]
macro_rules! foo {
($e: expr) => {{
$e;
unstable(); // no warning
only_called_by_foo!();
}}
}
macro_rules! only_called_by_foo {
() => { unstable() } // warning
}
foo!(unstable()) // warning
The unstable inside `foo` is fine, due to the attribute. But the
`unstable` inside `only_called_by_foo` is not, since that macro doesn't
have the attribute, and the `unstable` passed into `foo` is also not
fine since it isn't contained in the macro itself (that is, even though
it is only used directly in the macro).
In the process this makes the stability tracking much more precise,
e.g. previously `println!("{}", unstable())` got no warning, but now it
does. As such, this is a bug fix that may cause [breaking-change]s.
The attribute is definitely feature gated, since it explicitly allows
side-stepping the feature gating system.

This updates `thread_local!` macro to use the attribute, since it uses
unstable features internally (initialising a struct with unstable
fields).

Many of the modifications putting in `Box::new` calls also include a
pointer to Issue 22405, which tracks going back to `box <expr>` if
possible in the future.
(Still tried to use `Box<_>` where it sufficed; thus some tests still
have `box_syntax` enabled, as they use a mix of `box` and `Box::new`.)
Precursor for overloaded-`box` and placement-`in`; see Issue 22181.
MacEager is a MacResult implementation for the common case where you've already
built each form of AST that you might return.
Fixes#17637. Based on #18814.
This is a [breaking-change] for syntax extensions:
* MacExpr::new becomes MacEager::expr.
* MacPat::new becomes MacEager::pat.
* MacItems::new becomes MacEager::items. It takes a SmallVector directly,
not an iterator.
This overlaps with #22276 (I left make check running overnight) but covers a number of additional cases and has a few rewrites where the clones are not even necessary.
This also implements `RandomAccessIterator` for `iter::Cloned`
cc @steveklabnik, you may want to glance at this before #22281 gets the bors treatment
Pass features along during expansion
Use the set of passed features to detect uses of feature-gated macros without the corresponding feature enabled.
Fix#22234.
----
Also, the framework this add (passing along a reference to the features in the expansion context) is a necessary precursor for landing a properly feature-gated desugaring-based overloaded-`box` and placement-`in` (#22181).
----
This is fixing a bug, but since there might be code out there that is unknowingly taking advantage of that bug, I feel obligated to mark this as a:
[breaking-change]
Nonetheless, as this commit demonstrates, the previous commits was a [breaking-change].
In practice, breakage is focused on functions of this form:
```rust
fn foo(..., object: Box<FnMut()>)
````
where `FnMut()` could be any trait object type. The older scheme defaulted objects in argument
position so that they were bounded by a fresh lifetime:
```rust
fn foo<'a>(..., object: Box<FnMut()+'a>)
```
This meant that the object could contain borrowed data. The newer
scheme defaults to a lifetime bound of `'static`:
```rust
fn foo(..., object: Box<FnMut()+'static>)
```
This means that the object cannot contain borrowed data. In some cases, the best fix
is to stop using `Box`:
```rust
fn foo(..., object: &mut FnMut())
```
but another option is to write an explicit annotation for the `'a`
lifetime that used to be implicit. Both fixes are demonstrated in
this commit.
