name resolution for static methods changes.
move errno -> IoError converter into std, bubble up OSRng errors
Also adds a general errno -> `~str` converter to `std::os`, and makes the failure messages for the things using `OSRng` (e.g. (transitively) the task-local RNG, meaning hashmap initialisation failures aren't such a black box).
Previously it was printing the address of the Unsafe contained in the
Cell (i.e. the address of the Cell itself). This is clearly useless, and
was presumably a mistake due to writing `*&` instead of `&*`.
However, this later expression is likely also incorrect, since it takes
a reference into a Cell while other user code is executing (i.e. the
Show instance for the contained type), hence the contents should just be
copied out.
This is an implementation detail of the `f32` and `f64` modules and it
should not be public. It renames many functions and leaves out any
provided by LLVM intrinsics, so it is not a sensible binding to the C
standard library's math library and will never be a stable target.
This also removes the abuse of link_name so that this can be switched to
using automatically generated definitions in the future. This also
removes the `scalbn` binding as it is equivalent to `ldexp` when
`FLT_RADIX` is 2, which must always be true for Rust.
The various ...Rng::new() methods can hit IO errors from the OSRng they use,
and it seems sensible to expose them at a higher level. Unfortunately, writing
e.g. `StdRng::new().unwrap()` gives a much poorer error message than if it
failed internally, but this is a problem with all `IoResult`s.
This commit deals with the fallout of the previous change by making tuples
structs have public fields where necessary (now that the fields are private by
default).
This is a continuation of the work done in #13184 to make struct fields private
by default. This commit finishes RFC 4 by making all tuple structs have private
fields by default. Note that enum variants are not affected.
A tuple struct having a private field means that it cannot be matched on in a
pattern match (both refutable and irrefutable), and it also cannot have a value
specified to be constructed. Similarly to private fields, switching the type of
a private field in a tuple struct should be able to be done in a backwards
compatible way.
The one snag that I ran into which wasn't mentioned in the RFC is that this
commit also forbids taking the value of a tuple struct constructor. For example,
this code now fails to compile:
mod a {
pub struct A(int);
}
let a: fn(int) -> a::A = a::A; //~ ERROR: first field is private
Although no fields are bound in this example, it exposes implementation details
through the type itself. For this reason, taking the value of a struct
constructor with private fields is forbidden (outside the containing module).
RFC: 0004-private-fields
This is an implementation of a portion of [RFC #4](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0004-private-fields.md). This PR makes named struct fields private by default (as opposed to inherited by default).
The only real meaty change is the first commit to `rustc`, all other commits are just fallout of that change.
Summary of changes made:
* Named fields are private by default *everywhere*
* The `priv` keyword is now default-deny on named fields (done in a "lint" pass in privacy)
Changes yet to be done (before the RFC is closed)
* Change tuple structs to have private fields by default
* Remove `priv` enum variants
* Make `priv` a reserved keyword
