The API documentation is not explicit enough that because `try!` returns
`Err` early for you, you can only use it in functions that return
`Result`. The book mentions this, but if you come across `try!` outside
of the book and look it up in the docs, this restriction on the return
type of the function is not particularly clear.
This was always a weird feature, and isn't being used in the compiler.
Static assertions should be done better than this.
This implements RFC #1096.

This is behind a feature gate, but that's still a
[breaking-change]
This was causing `rustdoc` to interpret the part starting with
`(A.) ...` as a code block based on its four-space indentation,
which then was treated by `rustdoc` as a *Rust* code snippet,
and thus was attempting (and failing) to parse my english as
Rust code. Thus causing the compiler-docs build to fail.
Independently, we should probably change `rustdoc` to not interpret
four-space indents as code that needs to be tested; it seems too
perilous to me at least.
(But the formatting here needed to be changed either way.)
cc Issue #25699.
These are implemented in asm, they're just not inlined.
Open questions are:
* Should I just inline them? They're.. big, but it seems as though this needs violates the #[inline(always)] gaurantees the others make.
* Does something (llvm?) provide these as intrinsics? The structure of this code suggests that we could be hoisting off something else, instead of flagrantly ignoring it like we do for power and mips.
Bug fixes for configure on FreeBSD:
- Don't ban using gcc; newer versions can be installed and other checks should enforce its suitability.
- Don't force Rust to link itself with /usr/local/lib{,gcc4[46]}, which causes builds to fail if Rust is already installed. I've not been able to find an use case where this is actually necessary.
The compiler already has special support for fixing up verbatim paths with disks
on Windows to something that can be correctly passed down to gcc, and this
commit adds support for verbatim UNC paths as well.
Closes#25505
GDB and LLDB pretty printers have some common functionality and also access some common information, such as the layout of standard library types. So far, this information has been duplicated in the two pretty printing python modules. This PR introduces a common module used by both debuggers.
This PR also implements proper rendering of `String` and `&str` values in LLDB.
rustdoc: Tweak css of function where clauses
Method where clauses are put indented on a new line, do the same tweak
to free functions, which makes it cleaner and easier to read.
Now that MSVC support has landed in the most recent nightlies we can now have
MSVC bootstrap itself without going through a GNU compiler first. Unfortunately,
however, the bootstrap currently fails due to the compiler not being able to
find the llvm-ar.exe tool during the stage0 libcore compile. The compiler cannot
find this tool because it's looking inside a directory that does not exist:
$SYSROOT/rustlib/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/bin
The `gnu` on this triple is because the bootstrap compiler's host architecture
is GNU. The build system, however, only arranges for the llvm-ar.exe tool to be
available in this location:
$SYSROOT/rustlib/x86_64-pc-windows-msvc/bin
To resolve this discrepancy, the build system has been modified to understand
triples that are bootstrapped from another triple, and in this case copy the
native tools to the right location.
