@nikomatsakis and I were talking about how the serializers were a bit too complicated. None of the users of With the `emit_option` and `read_option` functions, the serializers are now moving more high level. This patch series continues that trend. I've removed support for emitting specific string and vec types, and added support for emitting mapping types.
I believe this patch incorporates all expected syntax changes from extern
function reform (#3678). You can now write things like:
extern "<abi>" fn foo(s: S) -> T { ... }
extern "<abi>" mod { ... }
extern "<abi>" fn(S) -> T
The ABI for foreign functions is taken from this syntax (rather than from an
annotation). We support the full ABI specification I described on the mailing
list. The correct ABI is chosen based on the target architecture.
Calls by pointer to C functions are not yet supported, and the Rust type of
crust fns is still *u8.
Before it wouldn't warn about unused imports in the list if something in the list was used. These commits fix that case, add a test, and remove all unused imports in lists of imports throughout the compiler.
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.
the types. Initially I thought it would be necessary to thread this data
through not only the AST but the types themselves, but then I remembered that
the pretty printer only cares about the AST. Regardless, I have elected to
leave the changes to the types intact since they will eventually be needed. I
left a few FIXMEs where it didn't seem worth finishing up since the code wasn't
crucial yet.
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.
- Most functions that used to return `~[~str]` for a list of substrings got turned into iterators over `&str` slices
- Some cleanup of apis, docs and code layout
This makes the `trim` and `substr` functions return a slice instead of an `~str`, and removes the unnecessary `Trimmable` trait (`StrSlice` already contains the same functionality).
Also moves the `ToStr` implementations for the three str types into the str module in anticipation of further untangling.
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.
Removes a lot of instances of `/*bad*/ copy` throughout libsyntax/librustc. On the plus side, this shaves about 2s off of the runtime when compiling `librustc` with optimizations.
Ideally I would have run a profiler to figure out which copies are the most critical to remove, but in reality there was a liberal amount of `git grep`s along with some spot checking and removing the easy ones.
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.
All current meta items types (word, name-value, list) are now
properly parsed by rustc --cfg command line. Fixes#2399

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.
Before this change, encoding an object containing a codemap::span
using the JSON encodeng produced invalid JSON, for instance:
[{"span":,"global":false,"idents":["abc"]}]
Since the decoder for codemap::span's ignores its argument, I
conjecture that this will not damage decoding, and should improve
it for many decoders.

This removes `log` from the language. Because we can't quite implement it as a syntax extension (probably need globals at the least) it simply renames the keyword to `__log` and hides it behind macros.
After this the only way to log is with `debug!`, `info!`, etc. I figure that if there is demand for `log!` we can add it back later.
I am not sure that we ever agreed on this course of action, though I *think* there is consensus that `log` shouldn't be a statement.
This is the first in a series of patches I'm working on to clean up the code related to `deriving`. This patch allows
```
#[deriving_eq]
#[deriving_iter_bytes]
#[deriving_clone]
struct Foo { bar: uint }
```
to be replaced with:
```
#[deriving(Eq, IterBytes, Clone)]
struct Foo { bar: uint }
```
It leaves the old attributes alone for the time being.
Eventually I'd like to incorporate the new closest-match-suggestion infrastructure for mistyped trait names, and also pass the sub-attributes to the deriving code, so that the following will be possible:
```
#[deriving(TotalOrd(qux, bar))]
struct Foo { bar: uint, baz: char, qux: int }
```
This says to derive an `impl` in which the objects' `qux` fields are compared first, followed by `bar`, while `baz` is ignored in the comparison. If no fields are specified explicitly, all fields will be compared in the order they're defined in the `struct`. This might also be useful for `Eq`. Coming soon.
These changes make const translation use adjustments (autodereference, autoreference, bare-fn-to-closure), like normal code does, replacing some ad-hoc logic that wasn't always right.
As a convenient side-effect, explicit dereference (both of pointers and of newtypes) is also supported in const expressions.
There is also a “bonus fix” for a bug in the pretty-printer exposed by one of the added tests.
