This uncovered some dead code, most notably in middle/liveness.rs, which I think suggests there must be something fishy with that part of the code.
The #[allow(dead_code)] annotations on some of the fields I am not super happy about but as I understand, marker type may disappear at some point.
There's a fair number of attributes that have to be whitelisted since
they're either looked for by rustdoc, in trans, or as needed. These can
be cleaned up in the future.
The #[phase(syntax,link)] attribute on `extern crate std` needs to be an
outer attribute so it can pretty-print properly.
Also add `#![no_std]` and `#[feature(phase)]` so compiling the
pretty-printed source will work.
Inject `extern crate {std, native}` before `use` statements.
Add `#![feature(glob)]` since `use std::prelude::*` is used.
(Unfortunately `rustc --pretty expanded` does not converge,
since `extern crate` and `use std::prelude::*` is injected at every
iteration.)
The goal of this refactoring is to make the rustc driver code easier to understand and use. Since this is as close to an API as we have, I think it is important that it is nice. On getting stuck in, I found that there wasn't as much to change as I'd hoped to make the stage... fns easier to use by tools.
This patch only moves code around - mostly just moving code to different files, but a few extracted method refactorings too. To summarise the changes: I added driver::config which handles everything about configuring the compiler. driver::session now just defines and builds session objects. I moved driver code from librustc/lib.rs to librustc/driver/mod.rs so all the code is one place. I extracted methods to make emulating the compiler without being the compiler a little easier. Within the driver directory, I moved code around to more logically fit in the modules.
This has long since not been too relevant since the introduction of many crate
type outputs. This commit removes the flag entirely, adjusting all logic to do
the most reasonable thing when building both a library and an executable.
Closes#13337

This PR is primarily motivated by (and fixes) #12926.
We currently only have a span for the individual item itself and not for the referred contents. This normally does not cause a problem since both are located in the same file; it *is* possible that the contained statement or item is located in the other file (the syntax extension can do that), but even in that case the syntax extension should be located in the same file as the item. The module item (i.e. `mod foo;`) is the only exception here, and thus warrants a special treatment.
Rustdoc would now distinguish `mod foo;` from `mod foo {...}` by checking if the span for the module item and module contents is in different files. If it's the case, we'd prefer module contents over module item. There are alternative strategies, but as noted above we will have some corner cases if we don't record the contents span explicitly.
this is useful when the module item and module contents are defined
from different files (like rustdoc). in most cases the original span
for the module item would be used; in other cases, the span for
module contents is available separately at the `inner` field.
it reflected the obsolete syntax `use a, b, c;` and did not make
past the parser (though it was a non-fatal error so we can continue).
this legacy affected many portions of rustc and rustdoc as well,
so this commit cleans them up altogether.
This alters the borrow checker's requirements on invoking closures from
requiring an immutable borrow to requiring a unique immutable borrow. This means
that it is illegal to invoke a closure through a `&` pointer because there is no
guarantee that is not aliased. This does not mean that a closure is required to
be in a mutable location, but rather a location which can be proven to be
unique (often through a mutable pointer).
For example, the following code is unsound and is no longer allowed:
type Fn<'a> = ||:'a;
fn call(f: |Fn|) {
f(|| {
f(|| {})
});
}
fn main() {
call(|a| {
a();
});
}
There is no replacement for this pattern. For all closures which are stored in
structures, it was previously allowed to invoke the closure through `&self` but
it now requires invocation through `&mut self`.
The standard library has a good number of violations of this new rule, but the
fixes will be separated into multiple breaking change commits.
Closes#12224
Now with proper checking of enums and allows unsized fields as the last field in a struct or variant. This PR only checks passing of unsized types and distinguishing them from sized ones. To be safe we also need to control storage.
Closes issues #12969 and #13121, supersedes #13375 (all the discussion there is valid here too).
This currently requires linking against a library like libquadmath (or
libgcc), because compiler-rt barely has any support for this and most
hardware does not yet have 128-bit precision floating point. For this
reason, it's currently hidden behind a feature gate.
When compiler-rt is updated to trunk, some tests can be added for
constant evaluation since there will be support for the comparison
operators.
Closes#13381
The current error message is misleading, it asks users to add `#[feature(..)]` which ends up being treated as an outer attribute, which then has no error unless `attribute_usage` lint is enforced. The code will still fail and the user might not understand why.
Resolve is currently erroneously allowing imports through private `use`
statements in some circumstances, even across module boundaries. For example,
this code compiles successfully today:
use std::c_str;
mod test {
use c_str::CString;
}
This should not be allowed because it was explicitly decided that private `use`
statements are purely bringing local names into scope, they are not
participating further in name resolution.
As a consequence of this patch, this code, while valid today, is now invalid:
mod test {
use std::c_str;
unsafe fn foo() {
::test::c_str::CString::new(0 as *u8, false);
}
}
While plausibly acceptable, I found it to be more consistent if private imports
were only considered candidates to resolve the first component in a path, and no
others.
Closes#12612
`RefCell::get` can be a bit surprising, because it actually clones the wrapped value. This removes `RefCell::get` and replaces all the users with `RefCell::borrow()` when it can, and `RefCell::borrow().clone()` when it can't. It removes `RefCell::set` for consistency. This closes#13182.
It also fixes an infinite loop in a test when debugging is on.
rustc: feature-gate `concat_idents!`.
concat_idents! is not as useful as it could be, due to macros only being
allowed in limited places, and hygiene, so lets feature gate it until we
make a decision about it.

It's surprising that `RefCell::get()` is implicitly doing a clone
on a value. This patch removes it and replaces all users with
either `.borrow()` when we can autoderef, or `.borrow().clone()`
when we cannot.
