This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
This partially implements the feature staging described in the
[release channel RFC][rc]. It does not yet fully conform to the RFC as
written, but does accomplish its goals sufficiently for the 1.0 alpha
release.
It has three primary user-visible effects:
* On the nightly channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of feature gates generates a warning.
Code that does not trigger these warnings is considered 'stable',
modulo pre-1.0 bugs.
Disabling the warnings for unstable APIs continues to be done in the
existing (i.e. old) style, via `#[allow(...)]`, not that specified in
the RFC. I deem this marginally acceptable since any code that must do
this is not using the stable dialect of Rust.
Use of feature gates is itself gated with the new 'unstable_features'
lint, on nightly set to 'allow', and on beta 'warn'.
The attribute scheme used here corresponds to an older version of the
RFC, with the `#[staged_api]` crate attribute toggling the staging
behavior of the stability attributes, but the user impact is only
in-tree so I'm not concerned about having to make design changes later
(and I may ultimately prefer the scheme here after all, with the
`#[staged_api]` crate attribute).
Since the Rust codebase itself makes use of unstable features the
compiler and build system to a midly elaborate dance to allow it to
bootstrap while disobeying these lints (which would otherwise be
errors because Rust builds with `-D warnings`).
This patch includes one significant hack that causes a
regression. Because the `format_args!` macro emits calls to unstable
APIs it would trigger the lint. I added a hack to the lint to make it
not trigger, but this in turn causes arguments to `println!` not to be
checked for feature gates. I don't presently understand macro
expansion well enough to fix. This is bug #20661.

This "reexports" all the functionality of `core::char::CharExt` as
methods on `unicode::u_char::UnicodeChar` (renamed to `CharExt`).
Imports may need to be updated (one now just imports
`unicode::CharExt`, or `std::char::CharExt` rather than two traits from
either), so this is a
[breaking-change]
This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how
recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the
standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release.
Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated
command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently
accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed).
The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both
of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.
This modifies `Parser::eat_lt` to always split up `<<`s, instead of doing so only when a lifetime name followed or the `force` parameter (now removed) was `true`. This is because `Foo<<TYPE` is now a valid start to a type, whereas previously only `Foo<<LIFETIME` was valid.
This is a [breaking-change]. Change code that looks like this:
```rust
let x = foo as bar << 13;
```
to use parentheses, like this:
```rust
let x = (foo as bar) << 13;
```
Closes#17362.
This breaks code that looks like this:
let x = foo as bar << 13;
Change such code to look like this:
let x = (foo as bar) << 13;

post-unboxed-closure-conversion. This requires a fair amount of
annoying coercions because all the `map` etc types are defined
generically over the `F`, so the automatic coercions don't propagate;
this is compounded by the need to use `let` and not `as` due to
stage0. That said, this pattern is to a large extent temporary and
unusual.
This commit starts out by consolidating all `str` extension traits into one
`StrExt` trait to be included in the prelude. This means that
`UnicodeStrPrelude`, `StrPrelude`, and `StrAllocating` have all been merged into
one `StrExt` exported by the standard library. Some functionality is currently
duplicated with the `StrExt` present in libcore.
This commit also currently avoids any methods which require any form of pattern
to operate. These functions will be stabilized via a separate RFC.
Next, stability of methods and structures are as follows:
Stable
* from_utf8_unchecked
* CowString - after moving to std::string
* StrExt::as_bytes
* StrExt::as_ptr
* StrExt::bytes/Bytes - also made a struct instead of a typedef
* StrExt::char_indices/CharIndices - CharOffsets was renamed
* StrExt::chars/Chars
* StrExt::is_empty
* StrExt::len
* StrExt::lines/Lines
* StrExt::lines_any/LinesAny
* StrExt::slice_unchecked
* StrExt::trim
* StrExt::trim_left
* StrExt::trim_right
* StrExt::words/Words - also made a struct instead of a typedef
Unstable
* from_utf8 - the error type was changed to a `Result`, but the error type has
yet to prove itself
* from_c_str - this function will be handled by the c_str RFC
* FromStr - this trait will have an associated error type eventually
* StrExt::escape_default - needs iterators at least, unsure if it should make
the cut
* StrExt::escape_unicode - needs iterators at least, unsure if it should make
the cut
* StrExt::slice_chars - this function has yet to prove itself
* StrExt::slice_shift_char - awaiting conventions about slicing and shifting
* StrExt::graphemes/Graphemes - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::grapheme_indices/GraphemeIndices - this functionality may only be in
libunicode
* StrExt::width - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::utf16_units - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfd_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfkd_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfc_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfkc_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::is_char_boundary - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_range_at - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_range_at_reverse - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_at - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_at_reverse - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrVector::concat - this functionality may be replaced with iterators, but
it's not certain at this time
* StrVector::connect - as with concat, may be deprecated in favor of iterators
Deprecated
* StrAllocating and UnicodeStrPrelude have been merged into StrExit
* eq_slice - compiler implementation detail
* from_str - use the inherent parse() method
* is_utf8 - call from_utf8 instead
* replace - call the method instead
* truncate_utf16_at_nul - this is an implementation detail of windows and does
not need to be exposed.
* utf8_char_width - moved to libunicode
* utf16_items - moved to libunicode
* is_utf16 - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Items - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Item - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Encoder - moved to libunicode
* AnyLines - renamed to LinesAny and made a struct
* SendStr - use CowString<'static> instead
* str::raw - all functionality is deprecated
* StrExt::into_string - call to_string() instead
* StrExt::repeat - use iterators instead
* StrExt::char_len - use .chars().count() instead
* StrExt::is_alphanumeric - use .chars().all(..)
* StrExt::is_whitespace - use .chars().all(..)
Pending deprecation -- while slicing syntax is being worked out, these methods
are all #[unstable]
* Str - while currently used for generic programming, this trait will be
replaced with one of [], deref coercions, or a generic conversion trait.
* StrExt::slice - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::slice_to - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::slice_from - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::lev_distance - deprecated with no replacement
Awaiting stabilization due to patterns and/or matching
* StrExt::contains
* StrExt::contains_char
* StrExt::split
* StrExt::splitn
* StrExt::split_terminator
* StrExt::rsplitn
* StrExt::match_indices
* StrExt::split_str
* StrExt::starts_with
* StrExt::ends_with
* StrExt::trim_chars
* StrExt::trim_left_chars
* StrExt::trim_right_chars
* StrExt::find
* StrExt::rfind
* StrExt::find_str
* StrExt::subslice_offset
This commit collapses the various prelude traits for slices into just one trait:
* SlicePrelude/SliceAllocPrelude => SliceExt
* CloneSlicePrelude/CloneSliceAllocPrelude => CloneSliceExt
* OrdSlicePrelude/OrdSliceAllocPrelude => OrdSliceExt
* PartialEqSlicePrelude => PartialEqSliceExt
This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.
This breaks code like:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
Change this code to:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
impl Copy for Point2D {}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
This is the backwards-incompatible part of #13231.
Part of RFC #3.

In regards to:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/19253#issuecomment-64836729
This commit:
* Changes the #deriving code so that it generates code that utilizes fewer
reexports (in particur Option::* and Result::*), which is necessary to
remove those reexports in the future
* Changes other areas of the codebase so that fewer reexports are utilized
'Numeric' is the proper name of the unicode character class,
and this frees up the word 'digit' for ascii use in libcore.
Since I'm going to rename `Char::is_digit_radix` to
`is_digit`, I am not leaving a deprecated method in place,
because that would just cause name clashes, as both
`Char` and `UnicodeChar` are in the prelude.

This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;
}
```
