...and cleanup, making how we handle version numbers more rational
(specifically, not passing in a versioned name to rustc
with the -o flag), and removing unused code.
Addressing issue #6037, this Scheme-style conditional helps to improve code clarity in instances where the `if`, `else if`, and `else` keywords obscure predicates undesirably.
Here is an example:
~~~rust
let clamped =
if x > mx { mx }
else if x < mn { mn }
else { x };
~~~
Using `cond!`, the above could be written as:
~~~rust
let clamped = cond!(
(x > mx) { mx }
(x < mn) { mn }
_ { x }
);
~~~
The optional default case is denoted by `_`.
I have altered `std::fun_treemap` to demonstrate it in use. I am definitely interested in using it for some of the numeric functions, but I will have to wait for it to reach `stage0` first.
This patch implements package IDs like
github.com/catamorphism/test-pkg.
To support such package IDs, I changed the PkgId struct to contain
a LocalPath and a RemotePath field, where the RemotePath reflects
the actual URL and the LocalPath reflects the file name of the cached
copy. Right now, the only difference is that the local path doesn't
contain dashes, but this will change when we implement #6407.
Also, PkgIds now have a short_name field -- though the short name
can be derived from the LocalPath, I thought it was cleaner not to
call option::get() wantonly.
`std::ratio` module contains `BigRational` type, but the type is not usable by following reasons.
* `Ratio::new` requires `T: Copy + Num + Ord`, but `BigInt` is not implicitly copyable, because it contains unique vector.
* `BigInt` is not implements `Num`
So, I rewrite `Ratio` as follows.
* `Ratio` requires `T: Clone + Integer + Ord`.
* `Copy` -> `Clone`: to be able to use `BigRational`
* `Num` -> `Integer`: It is incorrect that a rational number constructed by two non-integer numbers.
* `BigInt` implements `Num` and `Orderable` which are required by `Integer` bound
These few commits address a few existing issues:
* #5469 - adding regression tests for `rusti`. This adds unit tests to the `rusti.rc` file (which needed some reorganization of the Makefile, see the first commit message). These are super-simple right now, and sadly can't test the output of the tests. I worked for a bit on making a compiletest version of the rusti tests, but I ended up hitting something which blocked me, although I've forgotten it by this point.
* #5937 - regression test added, and it's fixed
* #5803 - just doesn't appear to happen any more
* #5784 - it's no longer broken, and it no longer spits out warnings about unused variables.
I also did some investigation into #5774, and you may want to read the comment I left on the bug. The gist of the situation is that C++ exceptions across JIT code don't look like they're working, even though they [should be working](3aa1122ec2/src/rustllvm/RustWrapper.cpp (L387)). If anyone has any insight on this, that would be awesome!
