This enables `num_milliseconds` to return an `i64` again instead of
`Option<i64>`, because it is guaranteed not to overflow.
The Duration range is now rougly 300e6 years (positive and negative),
whereas it was 300e9 years previously. To put these numbers in
perspective, 300e9 years is about 21 times the age of the universe
(according to Wolfram|Alpha). 300e6 years is about 1/15 of the age of
the earth (according to Wolfram|Alpha).
This changes the internal representation of `Duration` from
days: i32,
secs: i32,
nanos: u32
to
secs: i64,
nanos: i32
This resolves#16466. Some methods now take `i64` instead of `i32` due
to the increased range. Some methods, like `num_milliseconds`, now
return an `Option<i64>` instead of `i64`, because the range of
`Duration` is now larger than e.g. 2^63 milliseconds.
This implements `Add` and `Sub` for `Timespec`, which enables `Timespec` to be used as a time span. For example:
```rust
let begin = get_time();
// Do some stuff.
let end = get_time();
let delta = end - begin;
println!("Doing stuff took {}.{:09d} seconds.", delta.sec, delta.nsec);
```
This resolves one of the points mentioned in #2153.
First commit enables regex test on Windows. It was not working at some point (#13725), but it works now.
Second commit removes various FIXMEs regarding #13793, since upstream bug has been fixed.
This is enough for dynamic libraries, but not executables because MinGW
does not output a .reloc section even with `--dynamicbase`. It could
either be worked around by exporting a DLL symbol from the executable or
fixed in MinGW itself.

Pretty self-explanatory. Only annoying thing is that it *seems* that I had to add `#![feature(default_type_params)]` to libnum because of Hasher. Don't know if there's a way around that.
Fix#16551
This is very half-baked at the moment and very inefficient, e.g.
inappropriate use of by-value `self` (and thus being forced into an
overuse of `clone`). People get the wrong impression about Rust when
using it, e.g. that Rust cannot express what other languages can because
the implementation is inefficient: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8187831 .
The first commit improves code generation through a few changes:
- The `#[inline]` attributes allow llvm to constant fold the encoding step away in certain situations. For example, code like this changes from a call to `encode_utf8` in a inner loop to the pushing of a byte constant:
```rust
let mut s = String::new();
for _ in range(0u, 21) {
s.push_char('a');
}
```
- Both methods changed their semantic from causing run time failure if the target buffer is not large enough to returning `None` instead. This makes llvm no longer emit code for causing failure for these methods.
- A few debug `assert!()` calls got removed because they affected code generation due to unwinding, and where basically unnecessary with today's sound handling of `char` as a Unicode scalar value.
~~The second commit is optional. It changes the methods from regular indexing with the `dst[i]` syntax to unsafe indexing with `dst.unsafe_mut_ref(i)`. This does not change code generation directly - in both cases llvm is smart enough to see that there can never be an out-of-bounds access. But it makes it emit a `nounwind` attribute for the function.
However, I'm not sure whether that is a real improvement, so if there is any objection to this I'll remove the commit.~~
This changes how the methods behave on a too small buffer, so this is a
[breaking-change]
declared with the same name in the same scope.
This breaks several common patterns. First are unused imports:
use foo::bar;
use baz::bar;
Change this code to the following:
use baz::bar;
Second, this patch breaks globs that import names that are shadowed by
subsequent imports. For example:
use foo::*; // including `bar`
use baz::bar;
Change this code to remove the glob:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz::bar;
Or qualify all uses of `bar`:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz;
... baz::bar ...
Finally, this patch breaks code that, at top level, explicitly imports
`std` and doesn't disable the prelude.
extern crate std;
Because the prelude imports `std` implicitly, there is no need to
explicitly import it; just remove such directives.
The old behavior can be opted into via the `import_shadowing` feature
gate. Use of this feature gate is discouraged.
This implements RFC #116.
Closes#16464.
