These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.
This PR merges `IterBytes` and `Hash` into a trait that allows for generic non-stream-based hashing. It makes use of @eddyb's default type parameter support in order to have a similar usage to the old `Hash` framework.
Fixes#8038.
Todo:
- [x] Better documentation
- [ ] Benchmark
- [ ] Parameterize `HashMap` on a `Hasher`.
Closes#12366.
Parentheses around assignment statements such as
let mut a = (0);
a = (1);
a += (2);
are not necessary and therefore an unnecessary_parens warning is raised when
statements like this occur.
The warning mechanism was refactored along the way to allow for code reuse
between the routines for checking expressions and statements.
Code had to be adopted throughout the compiler and standard libraries to comply
with this modification of the lint.
- `extra::json` didn't make the cut, because of `extra::json` required
dep on `extra::TreeMap`. If/when `extra::TreeMap` moves out of `extra`,
then `extra::json` could move into `serialize`
- `libextra`, `libsyntax` and `librustc` depend on the newly created
`libserialize`
- The extensions to various `extra` types like `DList`, `RingBuf`, `TreeMap`
and `TreeSet` for `Encodable`/`Decodable` were moved into the respective
modules in `extra`
- There is some trickery, evident in `src/libextra/lib.rs` where a stub
of `extra::serialize` is set up (in `src/libextra/serialize.rs`) for
use in the stage0 build, where the snapshot rustc is still making
deriving for `Encodable` and `Decodable` point at extra. Big props to
