Closes#17841.
The majority of the work should be done, e.g. trait and inherent impls, different forms of UFCS syntax, defaults, and cross-crate usage. It's probably enough to replace the constants in `f32`, `i8`, and so on, or close to good enough.
There is still some significant functionality missing from this commit:
- ~~Associated consts can't be used in match patterns at all. This is simply because I haven't updated the relevant bits in the parser or `resolve`, but it's *probably* not hard to get working.~~
- Since you can't select an impl for trait-associated consts until partway through type-checking, there are some problems with code that assumes that you can check constants earlier. Associated consts that are not in inherent impls cause ICEs if you try to use them in array sizes or match ranges. For similar reasons, `check_static_recursion` doesn't check them properly, so the stack goes ka-blooey if you use an associated constant that's recursively defined. That's a bit trickier to solve; I'm not entirely sure what the best approach is yet.
- Dealing with consts associated with type parameters will raise some new issues (e.g. if you have a `T: Int` type parameter and want to use `<T>::ZERO`). See rust-lang/rfcs#865.
- ~~Unused associated consts don't seem to trigger the `dead_code` lint when they should. Probably easy to fix.~~
Also, this is the first time I've been spelunking in rustc to such a large extent, so I've probably done some silly things in a couple of places.
The minus sign ‘−’ is the same width as the plus sign ‘+’, so the button’s transition between the two symbols will look slightly smoother.
If you don’t want to use literal Unicode characters, I can change ‘−’ to `\u2212`. I’m not starting with that suggestion because ‘−’ is easier to read and understand, and if I used `\u2212`, it would probably be necessary to also comment the usage on each line to explain what character is being used.
So that if people accidentally delete the character, they won’t re-type it as a hyphen, which would cause bugs.
I changed ‘+’ too, even though it won’t be re-typed incorrectly, so that it is easier to see when plus is used as a symbol for the button, and when it is used as an operator in code. It also makes it clearer that the use of an entity for minus is on purpose, so people won’t be tempted to replace the entity incorrectly with a hyphen character.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
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 patch
1. renames libunicode to librustc_unicode,
2. deprecates several pieces of libunicode (see below), and
3. removes references to deprecated functions from
librustc_driver and libsyntax. This may change pretty-printed
output from these modules in cases involving wide or combining
characters used in filenames, identifiers, etc.
The following functions are marked deprecated:
1. char.width() and str.width():
--> use unicode-width crate
2. str.graphemes() and str.grapheme_indices():
--> use unicode-segmentation crate
3. str.nfd_chars(), str.nfkd_chars(), str.nfc_chars(), str.nfkc_chars(),
char.compose(), char.decompose_canonical(), char.decompose_compatible(),
char.canonical_combining_class():
--> use unicode-normalization crate
This makes it illegal to have unconstrained lifetimes that appear in an associated type definition. Arguably, we should prohibit all unconstrained lifetimes -- but it would break various macros. It'd be good to evaluate how large a break change it would be. But this seems like the minimal change we need to do to establish soundness, so we should land it regardless. Another variant would be to prohibit all lifetimes that appear in any impl item, not just associated types. I don't think that's necessary for soundness -- associated types are different because they can be projected -- but it would feel a bit more consistent and "obviously" safe. I'll experiment with that in the meantime.

Whenever a type implements Deref, rustdoc will now add a section to the "methods
available" sections for "Methods from Deref<Target=Foo>", listing all the
inherent methods of the type `Foo`.
Closes#19190
This commit is an overhaul to how rustdoc deals with stability of the standard
library. The handling has all been revisited with respect to Rust's current
approach to stability in terms of implementation as well as the state of the
standard library today. The high level changes made were:
* Stable items now have no marker by default
* Color-based small stability markers have been removed
* Module listings now fade out unstable/deprecated items slightly
* Trait methods have a separate background color based on stability and also
list the reason that they are unstable.
* `impl` blocks with stability no longer render at all. This may be re-added
once the compiler recognizes stability on `impl` blocks.
* `impl` blocks no longer have stability of the methods implemente indicated
* The stability summary has been removed
Closes#15468Closes#21674Closes#24201
The set of types which can have an inherent impl changed slightly and rustdoc
just needed to catch up to understand what it means to see a `impl str`!
Closes#23511
This ends up causing duplicate output in rustdoc. The source of these duplicates
is that the item is defined in both resolve namespaces, so it's listed twice.
Closes#23207
This change is aimed at improving cross-crate (inlined) notation of generic
closures. The change modifies `simplify::where_predicates` to handle
parenthesized notation as well as starting to handle supertrait bounds as well.
This was necessary because all output constraints of closures are bound to
`FnOnce` but most trait bounds are that of `FnMut`.
Close#21801
Had to fix a bug in `--markdown-playground-url` for markdown files in rustdoc as
well as adding some necessary JS to the rustbook output as well.
Closes#21553
* All bounds are now discovered through the trait to be inlined.
* The `?Sized` bound now renders correctly for inlined associated types.
* All `QPath`s (`<A as B>::C`) instances are rendered as `A::C` where `C` is a
hyperlink to the trait `B`. This should improve at least how the docs look at
least.
* Supertrait bounds are now separated and display as the source lists them.
Closes#20727Closes#21145
Add a custom module to rustdoc which simplifies the output of `middle::ty` into
a more readable form which tends to be written down anyway!
Closes#20646
This adds support in rustdoc to blanket apply crate attributes to all doc tests
for a crate at once. The syntax for doing this is:
#![doc(test(attr(...)))]
Each meta item in `...` will be applied to each doctest as a crate attribute.
cc #18199
All methods listed in "Trait Implementations" now hyperlink to the source trait
instead of themselves, allowing easy browsing of the documentation of a trait
method.
Closes#17476
This ensures that all external traits are run through the same filters that the
rest of the AST goes through, stripping hidden function as necessary.
Closes#13698
