This is has been obsolete for quite a while now (including a release),
so removing the special handling seems fine. (The error message is quite
good still anyway.)
Fixes#9580.
`Times::times` was always a second-class loop because it did not support the `break` and `continue` operations. Its playful appeal was then lost after `do` was disabled for closures. It's time to let this one go.
cc #7621.
See the commit message. I'm not sure if we should merge this now, or wait until we can write `Clone::clone(x)` which will directly solve the above issue with perfect error messages.
This unfortunately changes an error like
error: mismatched types: expected `&&NotClone` but found `&NotClone`
into
error: type `NotClone` does not implement any method in scope named `clone`
I'd forgotten to update them when I changed this a while ago; it now displays error messages linked to the struct/variant field, rather than the `#[deriving(Trait)]` line, for all traits.
This also adds a very large number of autogenerated tests. I can easily remove/tone down that commit if necessary.
This makes error messages about (e.g.) `#[deriving(Clone)] struct Foo {
x: Type }` point at `x: Type` rather than `Clone` in the header (while
still referring to the `#[deriving(Clone)]` in the expansion info).
Now that procedural macros can be implemented outside of the compiler,
it's more important to have a reasonable API to work with. Here are the
basic changes:
* Rename SyntaxExpanderTTTrait to MacroExpander, SyntaxExpanderTT to
BasicMacroExpander, etc. I think "procedural macro" is the right
term for these now, right? The other option would be SynExtExpander
or something like that.
* Stop passing the SyntaxContext to extensions. This was only ever used
by macro_rules, which doesn't even use it anymore. I can't think of
a context in which an external extension would need it, and removal
allows the API to be significantly simpler - no more
SyntaxExpanderTTItemExpanderWithoutContext wrappers to worry about.

They all have to go into a single module at the moment unfortunately.
Ideally, the logging macros would live in std::logging, condition! would
live in std::condition, format! in std::fmt, etc. However, this
introduces cyclic dependencies between those modules and the macros they
use which the current expansion system can't deal with. We may be able
to get around this by changing the expansion phase to a two-pass system
but that's for a later PR.

The old method of serializing the AST gives totally bogus spans if the
expansion of an imported macro causes compilation errors. The best
solution seems to be to serialize the actual textual macro definition
and load it the same way the std-macros are. I'm not totally confident
that getting the source from the CodeMap will always do the right thing,
but it seems to work in simple cases.
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.

true => {

let y = &x;
let z = &mut x;

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:

(Sidenote: the `span_end_note` currently also has issue #11715)
Renamed the ```invert()``` function in ```iter.rs``` to ```flip()```, from #10632
Also renamed the ```Invert<T>``` type to ```Flip<T>```.
Some related code comments changed. Documentation that I could find has
been updated, and all the instances I could locate where the
function/type were called have been updated as well.
This is my first contribution to Rust! Apologies in advance if I've snarfed the
PR process, I'm not used to rebase.
I initially had issues with the ```codegen``` section of the tests failing, however
the ```make check``` process is not reporting any failures at this time. I think
that was a local env issue more than me facerolling my changes. :)
This patchset consists of three parts:
- rustpkg doesn't guess crate version if it is not given by user.
- `rustpkg::version::Version` is replaced by `Option<~str>`.
It removes some semantic versioning portions which is not currently used.
(cc #8405 and #11396)
`rustpkg::crate_id::CrateId` is also replaced by `syntax::crateid::CrateId`.
- rustpkg now computes hash to find crate, instead of manual filename parse.

This means that compilation continues for longer, and so we can see more
errors per compile. This is mildly more user-friendly because it stops
users having to run rustc n times to see n macro errors: just run it
once to see all of them.
If the library is in the working directory, its path won't have a "/"
which will cause dlopen to search /usr/lib etc. It turns out that Path
auto-normalizes during joins so Path::new(".").join(path) is actually a
no-op.
NodeIds are sequential integers starting at zero, so we can achieve some
memory savings by just storing the items all in a line in a vector.
The occupancy for typical crates seems to be 75-80%, so we're already
more efficient than a HashMap (maximum occupancy 75%), not even counting
the extra book-keeping that HashMap does.
This commit re-works how the monitor() function works and how it both receives
and transmits errors. There are a few cases in which the compiler can abort:
1. A normal compiler error. In this case, the compiler raises a FatalError as
the failure value of the task. If this happens, then the monitor task does
nothing. It ignores all stderr output of the child task and it also
suppresses the failure message of the main task itself. This means that on a
normal compiler error just the error message itself is printed.
2. A normal internal compiler error. These are invoked from sess.span_bug() and
friends. In these cases, they follow the same path (raising a FatalError),
but they will also print an ICE message which has a URL to go report a bug.
3. An actual compiler bug. This happens whenever anything calls fail!() instead
of going through the session itself. In this case, we print out stuff about
RUST_LOG=2 and we by default capture all stderr and print via warn!() so it's
only printed out with the RUST_LOG var set.
For `use` statements, this means disallowing qualifiers when in functions and
disallowing `priv` outside of functions.
For `extern mod` statements, this means disallowing everything everywhere. It
may have been envisioned for `pub extern mod foo` to be a thing, but it
currently doesn't do anything (resolve doesn't pick it up), so better to err on
the side of forwards-compatibility and forbid it entirely for now.

This is a first pass on support for procedural macros that aren't hardcoded into libsyntax. It is **not yet ready to merge** but I've opened a PR to have a chance to discuss some open questions and implementation issues.
Example
=======
Here's a silly example showing off the basics:
my_synext.rs
```rust
#[feature(managed_boxes, globs, macro_registrar, macro_rules)];
extern mod syntax;
use syntax::ast::{Name, token_tree};
use syntax::codemap::Span;
use syntax::ext::base::*;
use syntax::parse::token;
#[macro_export]
macro_rules! exported_macro (() => (2))
#[macro_registrar]
pub fn macro_registrar(register: |Name, SyntaxExtension|) {
register(token::intern(&"make_a_1"),
NormalTT(@SyntaxExpanderTT {
expander: SyntaxExpanderTTExpanderWithoutContext(expand_make_a_1),
span: None,
} as @SyntaxExpanderTTTrait,
None));
}
pub fn expand_make_a_1(cx: &mut ExtCtxt, sp: Span, tts: &[token_tree]) -> MacResult {
if !tts.is_empty() {
cx.span_fatal(sp, "make_a_1 takes no arguments");
}
MRExpr(quote_expr!(cx, 1i))
}
```
main.rs:
```rust
#[feature(phase)];
#[phase(syntax)]
extern mod my_synext;
fn main() {
assert_eq!(1, make_a_1!());
assert_eq!(2, exported_macro!());
}
```
Overview
=======
Crates that contain syntax extensions need to define a function with the following signature and annotation:
```rust
#[macro_registrar]
pub fn registrar(register: |ast::Name, ext::base::SyntaxExtension|) { ... }
```
that should call the `register` closure with each extension it defines. `macro_rules!` style macros can be tagged with `#[macro_export]` to be exported from the crate as well.
Crates that wish to use externally loadable syntax extensions load them by adding the `#[phase(syntax)]` attribute to an `extern mod`. All extensions registered by the specified crate are loaded with the same scoping rules as `macro_rules!` macros. If you want to use a crate both for syntax extensions and normal linkage, you can use `#[phase(syntax, link)]`.
Open questions
===========
* ~~Does the `macro_crate` syntax make sense? It wraps an entire `extern mod` declaration which looks a bit weird but is nice in the sense that the crate lookup logic can be identical between normal external crates and external macro crates. If the `extern mod` syntax, changes, this will get it for free, etc.~~ Changed to a `phase` attribute.
* ~~Is the magic name `macro_crate_registration` the right way to handle extension registration? It could alternatively be handled by a function annotated with `#[macro_registration]` I guess.~~ Switched to an attribute.
* The crate loading logic lives inside of librustc, which means that the syntax extension infrastructure can't directly access it. I've worked around this by passing a `CrateLoader` trait object from the driver to libsyntax that can call back into the crate loading logic. It should be possible to pull things apart enough that this isn't necessary anymore, but it will be an enormous refactoring project. I think we'll need to create a couple of new libraries: libsynext libmetadata/ty and libmiddle.
* Item decorator extensions can be loaded but the `deriving` decorator itself can't be extended so you'd need to do e.g. `#[deriving_MyTrait] #[deriving(Clone)]` instead of `#[deriving(MyTrait, Clone)]`. Is this something worth bothering with for now?
Remaining work
===========
- [x] ~~There is not yet support for rustdoc downloading and compiling referenced macro crates as it does for other referenced crates. This shouldn't be too hard I think.~~
- [x] ~~This is not testable at stage1 and sketchily testable at stages above that. The stage *n* rustc links against the stage *n-1* libsyntax and librustc. Unfortunately, crates in the test/auxiliary directory link against the stage *n* libstd, libextra, libsyntax, etc. This causes macro crates to fail to properly dynamically link into rustc since names end up being mangled slightly differently. In addition, when rustc is actually installed onto a system, there are actually do copies of libsyntax, libstd, etc: the ones that user code links against and a separate set from the previous stage that rustc itself uses. By this point in the bootstrap process, the two library versions *should probably* be binary compatible, but it doesn't seem like a sure thing. Fixing this is apparently hard, but necessary to properly cross compile as well and is being tracked in #11145.~~ The offending tests are ignored during `check-stage1-rpass` and `check-stage1-cfail`. When we get a snapshot that has this commit, I'll look into how feasible it'll be to get them working on stage1.
- [x] ~~`macro_rules!` style macros aren't being exported. Now that the crate loading infrastructure is there, this should just require serializing the AST of the macros into the crate metadata and yanking them out again, but I'm not very familiar with that part of the compiler.~~
- [x] ~~The `macro_crate_registration` function isn't type-checked when it's loaded. I poked around in the `csearch` infrastructure a bit but didn't find any super obvious ways of checking the type of an item with a certain name. Fixing this may also eliminate the need to `#[no_mangle]` the registration function.~~ Now that the registration function is identified by an attribute, typechecking this will be like typechecking other annotated functions.
- [x] ~~The dynamic libraries that are loaded are never unloaded. It shouldn't require too much work to tie the lifetime of the `DynamicLibrary` object to the `MapChain` that its extensions are loaded into.~~
- [x] ~~The compiler segfaults sometimes when loading external crates. The `DynamicLibrary` reference and code objects from that library are both put into the same hash table. When the table drops, due to the random ordering the library sometimes drops before the objects do. Once #11228 lands it'll be easy to fix this.~~

This fixes the incorrect lexing of things like:
~~~rust
let b = 0o2f32;
let d = 0o4e6;
let f = 0o6e6f32;
~~~
and brings the float literal lexer in line with the description of the float literals in the manual.
Specifically, dissallow setting the number base for every type of float
literal, not only those that contain the decimal point. This is in line with
the description in the manual.
The `print!` and `println!` macros are now the preferred method of printing, and so there is no reason to export the `stdio` functions in the prelude. The functions have also been replaced by their macro counterparts in the tutorial and other documentation so that newcomers don't get confused about what they should be using.

This trait seems to stray too far from the mandate of a standard library as implementations may vary between use cases. Third party libraries should implement their own if they need something like it.
This closes#5316.
r? @alexcrichton, @pcwalton
This is just an unnecessary trait that no one's ever going to parameterize over
and it's more useful to just define the methods directly on the types
themselves. The implementors of this type almost always don't want
inner_mut_ref() but they're forced to define it as well.
`expand_include_str()` in libsyntax seems to have corrupted the CodeMap by always setting the BytePos of any included files to zero. It now uses `CodeMap::new_filemap()` which should set everything properly. This should fix issue #11322 but I don't want to close it before I have confirmation from the reporters that the problem is indeed fixed.
