For now, words() is left in (but deprecated), and Words is a type alias for
struct SplitWhitespace.
Also cleaned up references to s.words() throughout codebase.
Closes#15628
This commit clarifies some of the unstable features in the `str` module by
moving them out of the blanket `core` and `collections` features.
The following methods were moved to the `str_char` feature which generally
encompasses decoding specific characters from a `str` and dealing with the
result. It is unclear if any of these methods need to be stabilized for 1.0 and
the most conservative route for now is to continue providing them but to leave
them as unstable under a more specific name.
* `is_char_boundary`
* `char_at`
* `char_range_at`
* `char_at_reverse`
* `char_range_at_reverse`
* `slice_shift_char`
The following methods were moved into the generic `unicode` feature as they are
specifically enabled by the `unicode` crate itself.
* `nfd_chars`
* `nfkd_chars`
* `nfc_chars`
* `graphemes`
* `grapheme_indices`
* `width`
This commit performs a stabilization pass over the `std::fs` module now that
it's had some time to bake. The change was largely just adding `#[stable]` tags,
but there are a few APIs that remain `#[unstable]`.
The following apis are now marked `#[stable]`:
* `std::fs` (the name)
* `File`
* `Metadata`
* `ReadDir`
* `DirEntry`
* `OpenOptions`
* `Permissions`
* `File::{open, create}`
* `File::{sync_all, sync_data}`
* `File::set_len`
* `File::metadata`
* Trait implementations for `File` and `&File`
* `OpenOptions::new`
* `OpenOptions::{read, write, append, truncate, create}`
* `OpenOptions::open` - this function was modified, however, to not attempt to
reject cross-platform openings of directories. This means that some platforms
will succeed in opening a directory and others will fail.
* `Metadata::{is_dir, is_file, len, permissions}`
* `Permissions::{readonly, set_readonly}`
* `Iterator for ReadDir`
* `DirEntry::path`
* `remove_file` - like with `OpenOptions::open`, the extra windows code to
remove a readonly file has been removed. This means that removing a readonly
file will succeed on some platforms but fail on others.
* `metadata`
* `rename`
* `copy`
* `hard_link`
* `soft_link`
* `read_link`
* `create_dir`
* `create_dir_all`
* `remove_dir`
* `remove_dir_all`
* `read_dir`
The following apis remain `#[unstable]`.
* `WalkDir` and `walk` - there are many methods by which a directory walk can be
constructed, and it's unclear whether the current semantics are the right
ones. For example symlinks are not handled super well currently. This is now
behind a new `fs_walk` feature.
* `File::path` - this is an extra abstraction which the standard library
provides on top of what the system offers and it's unclear whether we should
be doing so. This is now behind a new `file_path` feature.
* `Metadata::{accessed, modified}` - we do not currently have a good
abstraction for a moment in time which is what these APIs should likely be
returning, so these remain `#[unstable]` for now. These are now behind a new
`fs_time` feature
* `set_file_times` - like with `Metadata::accessed`, we do not currently have
the appropriate abstraction for the arguments here so this API remains
unstable behind the `fs_time` feature gate.
* `PathExt` - the precise set of methods on this trait may change over time and
some methods may be removed. This API remains unstable behind the `path_ext`
feature gate.
* `set_permissions` - we may wish to expose a more granular ability to set the
permissions on a file instead of just a blanket "set all permissions" method.
This function remains behind the `fs` feature.
The following apis are now `#[deprecated]`
* The `TempDir` type is now entirely deprecated and is [located on
crates.io][tempdir] as the `tempdir` crate with [its source][github] at
rust-lang/tempdir.

The stability of some of these APIs has been questioned over the past few weeks
in using these APIs, and it is intentional that the majority of APIs here are
marked `#[stable]`. The `std::fs` module has a lot of room to grow and the
material is [being tracked in a RFC issue][rfc-issue].

[breaking-change]
This commit deprecates the majority of std::old_io::fs in favor of std::fs and
its new functionality. Some functions remain non-deprecated but are now behind a
feature gate called `old_fs`. These functions will be deprecated once
suitable replacements have been implemented.
The compiler has been migrated to new `std::fs` and `std::path` APIs where
appropriate as part of this change.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 565][rfc] which is a stabilization of
the `std::fmt` module and the implementations of various formatting traits.
Specifically, the following changes were performed:
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0565-show-string-guidelines.md
* The `Show` trait is now deprecated, it was renamed to `Debug`
* The `String` trait is now deprecated, it was renamed to `Display`
* Many `Debug` and `Display` implementations were audited in accordance with the
RFC and audited implementations now have the `#[stable]` attribute
* Integers and floats no longer print a suffix
* Smart pointers no longer print details that they are a smart pointer
* Paths with `Debug` are now quoted and escape characters
* The `unwrap` methods on `Result` now require `Display` instead of `Debug`
* The `Error` trait no longer has a `detail` method and now requires that
`Display` must be implemented. With the loss of `String`, this has moved into
libcore.
* `impl<E: Error> FromError<E> for Box<Error>` now exists
* `derive(Show)` has been renamed to `derive(Debug)`. This is not currently
warned about due to warnings being emitted on stage1+
While backwards compatibility is attempted to be maintained with a blanket
implementation of `Display` for the old `String` trait (and the same for
`Show`/`Debug`) this is still a breaking change due to primitives no longer
implementing `String` as well as modifications such as `unwrap` and the `Error`
trait. Most code is fairly straightforward to update with a rename or tweaks of
method calls.

Closes#21436
This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
This partially implements the feature staging described in the
[release channel RFC][rc]. It does not yet fully conform to the RFC as
written, but does accomplish its goals sufficiently for the 1.0 alpha
release.
It has three primary user-visible effects:
* On the nightly channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of feature gates generates a warning.
Code that does not trigger these warnings is considered 'stable',
modulo pre-1.0 bugs.
Disabling the warnings for unstable APIs continues to be done in the
existing (i.e. old) style, via `#[allow(...)]`, not that specified in
the RFC. I deem this marginally acceptable since any code that must do
this is not using the stable dialect of Rust.
Use of feature gates is itself gated with the new 'unstable_features'
lint, on nightly set to 'allow', and on beta 'warn'.
The attribute scheme used here corresponds to an older version of the
RFC, with the `#[staged_api]` crate attribute toggling the staging
behavior of the stability attributes, but the user impact is only
in-tree so I'm not concerned about having to make design changes later
(and I may ultimately prefer the scheme here after all, with the
`#[staged_api]` crate attribute).
Since the Rust codebase itself makes use of unstable features the
compiler and build system to a midly elaborate dance to allow it to
bootstrap while disobeying these lints (which would otherwise be
errors because Rust builds with `-D warnings`).
This patch includes one significant hack that causes a
regression. Because the `format_args!` macro emits calls to unstable
APIs it would trigger the lint. I added a hack to the lint to make it
not trigger, but this in turn causes arguments to `println!` not to be
checked for feature gates. I don't presently understand macro
expansion well enough to fix. This is bug #20661.
Closes#16678
[rc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0507-release-channels.md
fmt::Show is for debugging, and can and should be implemented for
all public types. This trait is used with `{:?}` syntax. There still
exists #[derive(Show)].
fmt::String is for types that faithfully be represented as a String.
Because of this, there is no way to derive fmt::String, all
implementations must be purposeful. It is used by the default format
syntax, `{}`.
This will break most instances of `{}`, since that now requires the type
to impl fmt::String. In most cases, replacing `{}` with `{:?}` is the
correct fix. Types that were being printed specifically for users should
receive a fmt::String implementation to fix this.
