A mutable and immutable borrow place some restrictions on what you can
with the variable until the borrow ends. This commit attempts to convey
to the user what those restrictions are. Also, if the original borrow is
a mutable borrow, the error message has been changed (more specifically,
i. "cannot borrow `x` as immutable because it is also borrowed as
mutable" and ii. "cannot borrow `x` as mutable more than once" have
been changed to "cannot borrow `x` because it is already borrowed as
mutable").
In addition, this adds a (custom) span note to communicate where the
original borrow ends.
```rust
fn main() {
match true {
true => {
let mut x = 1;
let y = &x;
let z = &mut x;
}
false => ()
}
}
test.rs:6:21: 6:27 error: cannot borrow `x` as mutable because it is already borrowed as immutable
test.rs:6 let z = &mut x;
^~~~~~
test.rs:5:21: 5:23 note: previous borrow of `x` occurs here; the immutable borrow prevents subsequent moves or mutable borrows of `x` until the borrow ends
test.rs:5 let y = &x;
^~
test.rs:7:10: 7:10 note: previous borrow ends here
test.rs:3 true => {
test.rs:4 let mut x = 1;
test.rs:5 let y = &x;
test.rs:6 let z = &mut x;
test.rs:7 }
^
```
```rust
fn foo3(t0: &mut &mut int) {
let t1 = &mut *t0;
let p: &int = &**t0;
}
fn main() {}
test.rs:3:19: 3:24 error: cannot borrow `**t0` because it is already borrowed as mutable
test.rs:3 let p: &int = &**t0;
^~~~~
test.rs:2:14: 2:22 note: previous borrow of `**t0` as mutable occurs here; the mutable borrow prevents subsequent moves, borrows, or modification of `**t0` until the borrow ends
test.rs:2 let t1 = &mut *t0;
^~~~~~~~
test.rs:4:2: 4:2 note: previous borrow ends here
test.rs:1 fn foo3(t0: &mut &mut int) {
test.rs:2 let t1 = &mut *t0;
test.rs:3 let p: &int = &**t0;
test.rs:4 }
^
```
For the "previous borrow ends here" note, if the span is too long (has too many lines), then only the first and last lines are printed, and the middle is replaced with dot dot dot:
```rust
fn foo3(t0: &mut &mut int) {
let t1 = &mut *t0;
let p: &int = &**t0;
}
fn main() {}
test.rs:3:19: 3:24 error: cannot borrow `**t0` because it is already borrowed as mutable
test.rs:3 let p: &int = &**t0;
^~~~~
test.rs:2:14: 2:22 note: previous borrow of `**t0` as mutable occurs here; the mutable borrow prevents subsequent moves, borrows, or modification of `**t0` until the borrow ends
test.rs:2 let t1 = &mut *t0;
^~~~~~~~
test.rs:7:2: 7:2 note: previous borrow ends here
test.rs:1 fn foo3(t0: &mut &mut int) {
...
test.rs:7 }
^
```

When --dep-info is given, rustc will write out a `$input_base.d` file in the
output directory that contains Makefile compatible dependency information for
use with tools like make and ninja.
I removed the `static-method-test.rs` test because it was heavily based
on `BaseIter` and there are plenty of other more complex uses of static
methods anyway.
This almost removes the StringRef wrapper, since all strings are
Equiv-alent now. Removes a lot of `/* bad */ copy *`'s, and converts
several things to be &'static str (the lint table and the intrinsics
table).
There are many instances of .to_managed(), unfortunately.
Replace all instances of #[auto_*code] with the appropriate #[deriving] attribute
and remove the majority of the actual code, leaving stubs to refer the user to
the new syntax.
fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
