Hey folks,
This patch series does some work on the json decoder, specifically with auto decoding of enums. Previously, we would take this code:
```
enum A {
B,
C(~str, uint)
}
```
and would encode a value of this enum to either `["B", []]` or `["C", ["D", 123]]`. I've changed this to `"B"` or `["C", "D", 123]`. This matches the style of the O'Caml json library [json-wheel](http://mjambon.com/json-wheel.html). I've added tests to make sure all this work.
In order to make this change, I added passing a `&[&str]` vec to `Decode::emit_enum_variant` so the json decoder can convert the name of a variant into it's position. I also changed the impl of `Encodable` for `Option<T>` to have the right upper casing.
I also did some work on the parser, which allows for `fn foo<T: ::cmp::Eq>() { ... }` statements (#5572), fixed the pretty printer properly expanding `debug!("...")` expressions, and removed `ast::expr_vstore_fixed`, which doesn't appear to be used anymore.
Because the json::Decoder uses the string variant name, we need a
way to correlate the string to the enum index. This passes in a
static &[&str] to read_enum_variant, which allows the json::Decoder
to know which branch it's trying to process.
Adds an assert_eq! macro that asserts that its two arguments are equal. Error messages can therefore be somewhat more informative than a simple assert, because the error message includes "expected" and "given" values.
the assert_eq! macro compares its arguments and fails if they're not
equal. It's more informative than fail_unless!, because it explicitly
writes the given and expected arguments on failure.
This would close#2761. I figured that if you're supplying your own custom message, you probably don't mind the stringification of the condition to not be in the message.
For bootstrapping purposes, this commit does not remove all uses of
the keyword "pure" -- doing so would cause the compiler to no longer
bootstrap due to some syntax extensions ("deriving" in particular).
Instead, it makes the compiler ignore "pure". Post-snapshot, we can
remove "pure" from the language.
There are quite a few (~100) borrow check errors that were essentially
all the result of mutable fields or partial borrows of `@mut`. Per
discussions with Niko I think we want to allow partial borrows of
`@mut` but detect obvious footguns. We should also improve the error
message when `@mut` is erroneously reborrowed.
Continuation of #5317. Actually use operands properly now, including any number of output operands.
Which means you can do things like call printf:
```Rust
fn main() {
unsafe {
do str::as_c_str(~"The answer is %d.\n") |c| {
let a = 42;
asm!("mov $0, %rdi\n\t\
mov $1, %rsi\n\t\
xorl %eax, %eax\n\t\
call _printf"
:
: "r"(c), "r"(a)
: "rdi", "rsi", "eax"
: "volatile","alignstack"
);
}
}
}
```
```
% rustc foo.rs
% ./foo
The answer is 42.
```
Or just add 2 numbers:
```Rust
fn add(a: int, b: int) -> int {
let mut c = 0;
unsafe {
asm!("add $2, $0"
: "=r"(c)
: "0"(a), "r"(b)
);
}
c
}
fn main() {
io::println(fmt!("%d", add(1, 2)));
}
```
```
% rustc foo.rs
% ./foo
3
```
Multiple outputs!
```Rust
fn addsub(a: int, b: int) -> (int, int) {
let mut c = 0;
let mut d = 0;
unsafe {
asm!("add $4, $0\n\t\
sub $4, $1"
: "=r"(c), "=r"(d)
: "0"(a), "1"(a), "r"(b)
);
}
(c, d)
}
fn main() {
io::println(fmt!("%?", addsub(5, 1)));
}
```
```
% rustc foo.rs
% ./foo
(6, 4)
```
This also classifies inline asm as RvalueStmtExpr instead of the somewhat arbitrary kind I made it initially. There are a few XXX's regarding what to do in the liveness and move passes.
