Raw string literals are lexed into regular string literals. This is okay
for them to "work" and be usable/testable, but the pretty-printer does
not know about them yet and will just emit regular string literals.
This commit fixes all of the fallout of the previous commit which is an attempt
to refine privacy. There were a few unfortunate leaks which now must be plugged,
and the most horrible one is the current `shouldnt_be_public` module now inside
`std::rt`. I think that this either needs a slight reorganization of the
runtime, or otherwise it needs to just wait for the external users of these
modules to get replaced with their `rt` implementations.
Other fixes involve making things pub which should be pub, and otherwise
updating error messages that now reference privacy instead of referencing an
"unresolved name" (yay!).
This commit is the culmination of my recent effort to refine Rust's notion of
privacy and visibility among crates. The major goals of this commit were to
remove privacy checking from resolve for the sake of sane error messages, and to
attempt a much more rigid and well-tested implementation of visibility
throughout rust. The implemented rules for name visibility are:
1. Everything pub from the root namespace is visible to anyone
2. You may access any private item of your ancestors.
"Accessing a private item" depends on what the item is, so for a function this
means that you can call it, but for a module it means that you can look inside
of it. Once you look inside a private module, any accessed item must be "pub
from the root" where the new root is the private module that you looked into.
These rules required some more analysis results to get propagated from trans to
privacy in the form of a few hash tables.
I added a new test in which my goal was to showcase all of the privacy nuances
of the language, and I hope to place any new bugs into this file to prevent
regressions.
Overall, I was unable to completely remove the notion of privacy from resolve.
One use of privacy is for dealing with glob imports. Essentially a glob import
can only import *public* items from the destination, and because this must be
done at namespace resolution time, resolve must maintain the notion of "what
items are public in a module". There are some sad approximations of privacy, but
I unfortunately can't see clear methods to extract them outside.
The other use case of privacy in resolve now is one that must stick around
regardless of glob imports. When dealing with privacy, checking a private path
needs to know "what the last private thing was" when looking at a path. Resolve
is the only compiler pass which knows the answer to this question, so it
maintains the answer on a per-path resolution basis (works similarly to the
def_map generated).

This PR solves one of the pain points with c-style enums. Simplifies writing a fn to convert from an int/uint to an enum. It does this through a `#[deriving(FromPrimitive)]` syntax extension.
Before this is committed though, we need to discuss if `ToPrimitive`/`FromPrimitive` has the right design (cc #4819). I've changed all the `.to_int()` and `from_int()` style functions to return `Option<int>` so we can handle partial functions. For this PR though only enums and `extra::num::bigint::*` take advantage of returning None for unrepresentable values. In the long run it'd be better if `i64.to_i8()` returned `None` if the value was too large, but I'll save this for a future PR.
Closes#3868.

This PR removes these specific "obsolete syntax"/"suggestion for change" errors and just lets the parser run into regular parser errors for long-invalid syntax. I also removed `ObsoletePrivSection` which apparently dates further back than cmr or I could recall and `ObsoleteUnenforcedBound` which seemed unused. Also I removed `ObsoleteNewtypeEnum`.
Replaces existing tests for removed obsolete-syntax errors with tests
for the resulting regular errors, adds a test for each of the removed
parser errors to make sure that obsolete forms don't start working
again, removes some obsolete/superfluous tests that were now failing.
Deletes some amount of dead code in the parser, also includes some small
changes to parser error messages to accomodate new tests.
That is, only a single expression or item gets parsed, so if there are
any extra tokens (e.g. the start of another item/expression) the user
should be told, rather than silently dropping them.
An example:
macro_rules! foo {
() => {
println("hi");
println("bye);
}
}
would expand to just `println("hi")`, which is almost certainly not
what the programmer wanted.
Fixes#8012.

It is simply defined as `f64` across every platform right now.
A use case hasn't been presented for a `float` type defined as the
highest precision floating point type implemented in hardware on the
platform. Performance-wise, using the smallest precision correct for the
use case greatly saves on cache space and allows for fitting more
numbers into SSE/AVX registers.
If there was a use case, this could be implemented as simply a type
alias or a struct thanks to `#[cfg(...)]`.

As mentioned in #9456, the format! syntax extension would previously consider an
empty format as a 'Unknown' format which could then also get coerced into a
different style of format on another argument.
This is unusual behavior because `{}` is a very common format and if you have
`{0} {0:?}` you wouldn't expect them both to be coereced to the `Poly`
formatter. This commit removes this coercion, but still retains the requirement
that each argument has exactly one format specified for it (an empty format now
counts as well).
Perhaps at a later date we can add support for multiple formats of one argument,
but this puts us in at least a backwards-compatible situation if we decide to do
that.

This lifts various restrictions on the runtime, for example the character limit
when logging a message. Right now the old debug!-style macros still involve
allocating (because they use fmt! syntax), but the new debug2! macros don't
involve allocating at all (unless the formatter for a type requires allocation.

Previously, the lexer calling `rdr.fatal(...)` would report the span of
the last complete token, instead of a span within the erroneous token
(besides one span fixed in 1ac90bb).
This branch adds wrappers around `rdr.fatal(...)` that sets the span
explicilty, so that all fatal errors in `libsyntax/parse/lexer.rs` now
report the offending code more precisely. A number of tests try to
verify that, though the `compile-fail` testing setup can only check that
the spans are on the right lines, and the "unterminated string/block
comment" errors can't have the line marked at all, so that's incomplete.
This closes#9149.
Also, the lexer errors now report the offending code in the error message,
not just via the span, just like other errors do.
The `Drop` implementation was used to prevent `Future` from being implicitly copyable. Since `~fn`s are no longer copyable, this is no longer needed. I added a cfail test to make sure that this is actually the case.
I method-ized all of the `Future` creation methods and added a new one, `spawn_with`, which is similar to `task::spawn_with`.
I also got rid of some unused imports in tests.

This renames the syntax-extension file to format from ifmt, and it also reduces
the amount of complexity inside by defining all other macros in terms of
format_args!
The purpose of this macro is to further reduce the number of allocations which
occur when dealing with formatting strings. This macro will perform all of the
static analysis necessary to validate that a format string is safe, and then it
will wrap up the "format string" into an opaque struct which can then be passed
around.
Two safe functions are added (write/format) which take this opaque argument
structure, unwrap it, and then call the unsafe version of write/format (in an
unsafe block). Other than these two functions, it is not intended for anyone to
ever look inside this opaque struct.
The macro looks a bit odd, but mostly because of rvalue lifetimes this is the
only way for it to be safe that I know of.
Example use-cases of this are:
* third-party libraries can use the default formatting syntax without any
forced allocations
* the fail!() macro can avoid allocating the format string
* the logging macros can avoid allocation any strings
This removes another large chunk of this odd 'clownshoes' identifier showing up
in symbol names. These all originated from external crates because the encoded
items were encoded independently of the paths calculated in ast_map. The
encoding of these paths now uses the helper function in ast_map to calculate the
"pretty name" for an impl block.
Unfortunately there is still no information about generics in the symbol name,
but it's certainly vastly better than before
hash::__extensions__::write::_version::v0.8
becomes
hash::Writer$SipState::write::hversion::v0.8
This also fixes bugs in which lots of methods would show up as `meth_XXX`, they
now only show up as `meth` and throw some extra characters onto the version
string.
These commits fix bugs related to identically named statics in functions of implementations in various situations. The commit messages have most of the information about what bugs are being fixed and why.
As a bonus, while I was messing around with name mangling, I improved the backtraces we'll get in gdb by removing `__extensions__` for the trait/type being implemented and by adding the method name as well. Yay!
Remove __extensions__ from method symbols as well as the meth_XXX. The XXX is
now used to append a few characters at the end of the name of the symbol.

This is currently unsound since `bool` is represented as `i8`. It will
become sound when `bool` is stored as `i8` but always used as `i1`.
However, the current behaviour will always be identical to `x & 1 != 0`,
so there's no need for it. It's also surprising, since `x != 0` is the
expected behaviour.

There are 6 new compiler recognised attributes: deprecated, experimental,
unstable, stable, frozen, locked (these levels are taken directly from
Node's "stability index"[1]). These indicate the stability of the
item to which they are attached; e.g. `#[deprecated] fn foo() { .. }`
says that `foo` is deprecated.
This comes with 3 lints for the first 3 levels (with matching names) that
will detect the use of items marked with them (the `unstable` lint
includes items with no stability attribute). The attributes can be given
a short text note that will be displayed by the lint. An example:
#[warn(unstable)]; // `allow` by default
#[deprecated="use `bar`"]
fn foo() { }
#[stable]
fn bar() { }
fn baz() { }
fn main() {
foo(); // "warning: use of deprecated item: use `bar`"
bar(); // all fine
baz(); // "warning: use of unmarked item"
}
The lints currently only check the "edges" of the AST: i.e. functions,
methods[2], structs and enum variants. Any stability attributes on modules,
enums, traits and impls are not checked.
[1]: http://nodejs.org/api/documentation.html
[2]: the method check is currently incorrect and doesn't work.
I've added a test for the second example mentioned in #5239. The first example does not compile with a reasonable error message. Should I add a compile-fail test for that example as well?

This removes the stacking of type parameters that occurs when invoking
trait methods, and fixes all places in the standard library that were
relying on it. It is somewhat awkward in places; I think we'll probably
want something like the `Foo::<for T>::new()` syntax.

This is a rewrite of TLS to get towards not requiring `@` when using task local storage. Most of the rewrite is straightforward, although there are two caveats:
1. Changing `local_set` to not require `@` is blocked on #7673
2. The code in `local_pop` is some of the most unsafe code I've written. A second set of eyes should definitely scrutinize it...
The public-facing interface currently hasn't changed, although it will have to change because `local_data::get` cannot return `Option<T>`, nor can it return `Option<&T>` (the lifetime isn't known). This will have to be changed to be given a closure which yield `&T` (or as an Option). I didn't do this part of the api rewrite in this pull request as I figured that it could wait until when `@` is fully removed.
This also doesn't deal with the issue of using something other than functions as keys, but I'm looking into using static slices (as mentioned in the issues).
This a followup to #7510. @catamorphism requested a test - so I have created one, but in doing so I noticed some inconsistency in the error messages resulting from referencing nonexistent traits, so I changed the messages to be more consistent.

the LUB/GLB.
This patch makes error handling for region inference failures more
uniform by not reporting *any* region errors until the reigon inference
step. This requires threading through more information about what
caused a region constraint, so that we can still give informative
error messages.
I have only taken partial advantage of this information: when region
inference fails, we still report the same error we always did, despite
the fact that we now know precisely what caused the various constriants
and what the region variable represents, which we did not know before.
This change is required not only to improve error messages but
because the region hierarchy is not in fact fully known until regionck,
because it is not clear where closure bodies fit in (our current
treatment is unsound). Moreover, the relationships between free variables
cannot be fully determined until type inference is otherwise complete.

The commit f9a5453 is meant to be a temporary hold-over. Whether or not there is added a way for the compiler to "implicitly borrow" stack closures in this way, there should be a codegen optimization that prevents having to traverse possibly-very-many function pointers to find the function you ultimately wanted to call. I tried to separate out the changes so this particular commit could be straight-up reverted if auto-borrowing happens in the future.

@graydon suggested that once closures not be part of the language for 1.0, but that they might be hidden behind a -Z compile flag as an "experimental feature" in case people decide they need them.
Regardless of whether ```-Z once-fns``` is set, this PR will parse the ```once``` keyword and will prevent closures labelled with it from being called more than once. It will also permit moving out of captured vars in heap closures, just to let the runtime writers stop using ```Cell``` sooner. Setting ```-Z once-fns``` only toggles whether the move-out-from-capture privilege is also given for stack closures.

Fix#7322.
I started out with a band-aid approach to special-case the duplicate module error using `is_duplicate_module`, but thought this would be better in the long term.
add_child() is responsible for reporting errors about type, value, and
module duplicate definitions. Although it checks for all three, it uses
namespace_to_str() to convert a Namespace value into a string before
printing an error like:
error: duplicate definition of type `foo`
^^^^
note: first definition of type foo here:
^^^^
Unfortunately, this string can only be one of "type" or
"value" (corresponding to TypeNS and ValueNS respectively), and it
reports duplicate modules as duplicate types.
To alleviate the problem, define a special NamespaceError enum to define
more specialized errors, and use it instead of attempting to reuse the
Namespace enum.

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.
Minimally fixes#7017, we were overwriting the result and thus ignoring attributes before the last.
csearch::get_item_attrs and decoder::get_item_attrs should probably also be changed to each_item_attrs using the for protocol, but that's just a minor performance/style issue.
