The prospects of a generic failure function such as this existing in libcore are
bleak, due to monomorphization not working across the crate boundary, and
allocation into a ~Any is not allowed in libcore.
The argument to expect() is now &str instead of <M: Send + Any>
[breaking-change]
This adds an small of failure to libcore, hamstrung by the fact that std::fmt
hasn't been migrated yet. A few asserts were re-worked to not use std::fmt
features, but these asserts can go back to their original form once std::fmt has
migrated.
The current failure implementation is to just have some symbols exposed by
std::rt::unwind that are linked against by libcore. This is an explicit circular
dependency, unfortunately. This will be officially supported in the future
through compiler support with much nicer failure messages. Additionally, there
are two depended-upon symbols today, but in the future there will only be one
(once std::fmt has migrated).
Coherence requires that libcore's traits be implemented in libcore for ~[T] and
~str (due to them being language defined types). These implementations cannot
live in libcore forever, but for now, until Heap/Box/Uniq is a lang item, these
implementations must reside inside of libcore. While not perfect
implementations, these shouldn't reside in libcore for too long.
With some form of lang item these implementations can be in a proper crate
because the lang item will not be present in libcore.
This moves as much allocation as possible from teh std::str module into
core::str. This includes essentially all non-allocating functionality, mostly
iterators and slicing and such.
This primarily splits the Str trait into only having the as_slice() method,
adding a new StrAllocating trait to std::str which contains the relevant new
allocation methods. This is a breaking change if any of the methods of "trait
Str" were overriden. The old functionality can be restored by implementing both
the Str and StrAllocating traits.

This commit adds a new trait, MutableVectorAllocating, which represents
functions on vectors which can allocate.
This is another extension trait to slices which should be removed once a lang
item exists for the ~ allocation.
This implements all traits inside of core::num for all the primitive types,
removing all the functionality from libstd. The std modules reexport all of the
necessary items from the core modules.
This strips out all string-related functionality from the num module. The
inherited functionality is all that will be implemented in libcore (for now).
Primarily, libcore will not implement the Float trait or any string-related
functionality.
It may be possible to migrate string parsing functionality into libcore in the
future, but for now it will remain in libstd.
All functionality in core::num is reexported in std::num.
This commit removes the std::{managed, reference} modules. The modules serve
essentially no purpose, and the only free function removed was `managed::ptr_eq`
which can be achieved by comparing references.
[breaking-change]
This removes the TotalOrd and TotalEq implementation macros, they will be added
later to the numeric modules (where the other comparison implementations live).
Compile-fail tests for syntax extensions belong in this suite which has correct
dependencies on all artifacts rather than just the target artifacts.
Closes#13818
This change makes internal compile errors in the compile-fail tests failures.
I believe this is the correct behaviour- those tests are intended to assert that the compiler doesn't proceed, not that it explodes.
So far, it fails on 4 tests in my environment, my testcase for #13943 which is what caused me to tackle this, and 3 others:
```
failures:
[compile-fail] compile-fail/incompatible-tuple.rs # This one is mine and not on master
[compile-fail] compile-fail/inherit-struct8.rs
[compile-fail] compile-fail/issue-9725.rs
[compile-fail] compile-fail/unsupported-cast.rs
```
for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
r? @brson or @alexcrichton or whoever
for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

The underlying I/O objects implement a good deal of various options here and
there for tuning network sockets and how they perform. Most of this is a relic
of "whatever libuv provides", but these options are genuinely useful.
It is unclear at this time whether these options should be well supported or
not, or whether they have correct names or not. For now, I believe it's better
to expose the functionality than to not, but all new methods are added with
an #[experimental] annotation.
Previously, the parser would not allow you to simultaneously implement a
function with a different abi as well as being unsafe at the same time. This
extends the parser to allow functions of the form:
unsafe extern fn foo() {
// ...
}
The closure type grammar was also changed to reflect this reversal, types
previously written as "extern unsafe fn()" must now be written as
"unsafe extern fn()". The parser currently has a hack which allows the old
style, but this will go away once a snapshot has landed.
Closes#10025
[breaking-change]
Currently, rustc requires that a linkage be a product of 100% rlibs or 100%
dylibs. This is to satisfy the requirement that each object appear at most once
in the final output products. This is a bit limiting, and the upcoming libcore
library cannot exist as a dylib, so these rules must change.
The goal of this commit is to enable *some* use cases for mixing rlibs and
dylibs, primarily libcore's use case. It is not targeted at allowing an
exhaustive number of linkage flavors.
There is a new dependency_format module in rustc which calculates what format
each upstream library should be linked as in each output type of the current
unit of compilation. The module itself contains many gory details about what's
going on here.
