Lots of linking arguments need to be passed as -Wl,--foo so giving the
comma meaning at the rustc layer makes those flags impossible to pass.
Multiple arguments can now be passed from a shell by quoting the
argument: --link-args='-lfoo -Wl,--as-needed'.
I've added trt_field_vtable, trt_field_box, and trt_field_tydesc, and
inserted them in place of the "magic numbers" used to access trait
object fields through GEPi().
The drop block has been deprecated for quite some time. This patch series removes support for parsing it and all the related machinery that made drop work.
As a side feature of all this, I also added the ability to annote fields in structs. This allows comments to be properly associated with an individual field. However, I didn't update `rustdoc` to integrate these comment blocks into the documentation it generates.
After much discussion on IRC and #4819, we have decided to revert to the old naming of the `/` operator. This does not change its behavior. In making this change, we also have had to rename some of the methods in the `Integer` trait. Here is a list of the methods that have changed:
- `Quot::quot` -> `Div::div`
- `Rem::rem` - stays the same
- `Integer::quot_rem` -> `Integer::div_rem`
- `Integer::div` -> `Integer::div_floor`
- `Integer::modulo` -> `Integer::mod_floor`
- `Integer::div_mod` -> `Integer::div_mod_floor`
Adds two extra flags: `--linker` which takes extra flags to pass to the linker, can be used multiple times and `--print-link-args` which prints out linker arguments. Currently `--print-link-args` needs execution to get past translation to get the `LinkMeta` data.
I haven't done tests or updated any extra documentation yet, so this pull request is currently here for review.
Cases like `Either<@int,()>` have a null case with at most one value but
a nonzero number of fields; if we misreport this, then bad things can
happen inside of, for example, pattern matching.
Closes#6117.

A month's worth of parser cleanup here. Much of this is new comments and renaming. A number of these commits also remove unneeded code. Probably the biggest refactor here is splitting "parse_item_or_view_item" into two functions; it turns out that the only overlap between items in foreign modules and items in regular modules was macros, so this refactor should make things substantially easier for future maintenance.
I didn't know how to use "use" initially, and an error message like this would
have solved quite a bit of frustration. I think this properly handles cases
where it's not appropriate but I'm not sure.
Closes#3083.
This takes a similar approach to #5797 where a set is present on the `tcx` of used mutable definitions. Everything is by default warned about, and analyses must explicitly add mutable definitions to this set so they're not warned about.
Most of this was pretty straightforward, although there was one caveat that I ran into when implementing it. Apparently when the old modes are used (or maybe `legacy_modes`, I'm not sure) some different code paths are taken to cause spurious warnings to be issued which shouldn't be issued. I'm not really sure how modes even worked, so I was having a lot of trouble tracking this down. I figured that because they're a legacy thing that I'd just de-mode the compiler so that the warnings wouldn't be a problem anymore (or at least for the compiler).
Other than that, the entire compiler compiles without warnings of unused mutable variables. To prevent bad warnings, #5965 should be landed (which in turn is waiting on #5963) before landing this. I figured I'd stick it out for review anyway though.
As the name suggests this replaces many instances of cast::reinterpret_cast by cast::transmute. It's essentially the boring part of fixing #5163, the remaining reinterpret_casts should be more tricky to remove (unless I missed a boring case).

This adds debugging symbol generation for boxes, bare functions, vectors, and strings, along with a tests for boxes and vectors.
Note that gdb will see them as their actual compiled representation with the refcount, tydesc, etc. fields, so if `b` refers to box, `b->boxed` will refer to its value. Also, since you seem to use the [C struct hack](http://c-faq.com/struct/structhack.html) for dynamic vectors, you won't be able to print out the whole vector at once, only one element at a time by indexing specific elements.
r? @nikomatsakis
This doesn't completely fix the x86 ABI for structs, but it does fix some cases. On linux, structs appear to be returned correctly now. On windows, structs are only returned by pointer when they are greater than 8 bytes. That scenario works now.
In the case where the struct is less than 8 bytes our generated code looks peculiar. When returning a pair of u16, C packs both variables into %eax to return them. Our generated code though expects to find one of the pair in %ax and the other in %dx. Similar for u8. I haven't looked into it yet.
There appears to also be struct passing problems on linux, where my `extern-pass-TwoU8s` and `extern-pass-TwoU16s` tests are failing.
This Adds a bunch of tests for passing and returning structs
of various sizes to C. It fixes the struct return rules on unix,
and on windows for structs of size > 8 bytes. Struct passing
on unix for structs under a certain size appears to still be broken.
This will help not to meet confusing errors.
In issue #5873, the error was "expected constant expr for vector length: Can't cast str to int".
It was originally "expected constant expr for vector length: Non-constant path in constant expr" (though still invalid error).
This patch make the original error to be printed.
This patch is a sledge hammer that moves all tests into `#[cfg(test)] mod test { .. }`, and makes them private, there were several instances of `pub mod tests { #[test] pub fn ... } `.
(The reason for this is I was playing with using `syntax` to index code ([result so far](http://www.ug.it.usyd.edu.au/~hwil7821/rust-api/)) and it was getting some junk from the tests.)
The rustdoc commit is particularly brutal, so it's fine if that one isn't landed.
Closes#5487, #1913, and #4568
I tracked this by adding all used unsafe blocks/functions to a set on the `tcx` passed around, and then when the lint pass comes around if an unsafe block/function isn't listed in that set, it's unused.
I also removed everything from the compiler that was unused, and up to stage2 is now compiling without any known unused unsafe blocks.
I chose `unused_unsafe` as the name of the lint attribute, but there may be a better name...

This takes care of one of the last remnants of assumptions about enum layout. A type visitor is now passed a function to read a value's discriminant, then accesses fields by being passed a byte offset for each one. The latter may not be fully general, despite the constraints imposed on representations by borrowed pointers, but works for any representations currently planned and is relatively simple.
Closes#5652.
This implements #5158. Currently it takes the command line args and the crate map. Since it doesn't take a `main` function pointer, you can't actually start the runtime easily, but that seems to be a shim to allow the current `rust_start` function to call into main.
However, you can do an end-run round the io library and do this:
```rust
use core::libc::{write, c_int, c_void, size_t, STDOUT_FILENO};
#[start]
fn my_start(_argc:int, _argv: **u8, _crate_map: *u8) -> int {
do str::as_buf("Hello World!\n") |s,len| {
unsafe {
write(STDOUT_FILENO, s as *c_void, len as size_t);
}
}
return 0;
}
```
Which is the most basic "Hello World" you can do in rust without starting up the runtime (though that has quite a lot to do with the fact that `core::io` uses `@` everywhere...)
Good morning,
This first patch series adds support for `#[deriving(Decodable, Encodable)]`, but does not yet remove `#[auto_encode]` and `#[auto_decode]`. I need a snapshot to remove the old code. Along the way it also extends support for tuple structs and struct enum variants.
Also, it includes a minor fix to the pretty printer. We decided a while ago to use 4 spaces to indent a match arm instead of 2. This updates the pretty printer to reflect that.
There's no unifying theme here; I'm just trying to clear a bunch of small commits: removing dead code, adding comments, renaming to an upper-case type, fixing one test case.
Revert map.each to something which takes two parameters rather than a tuple. The current setup iterates over `BaseIter<(&'self K, &'self V)>` where 'self is a lifetime declared *in the `each()` method*. You can't place such a type in the impl declaration. The compiler currently allows it, but this will not be legal under #5656 and I'm pretty sure it's not sound now. It's too bad that maps can't implement `BaseIter` (at least not over a tuple as they do here) but I think it has to be this way for the time being.
r? @thestinger
signature. In a nutshell, the idea is to (1) report an error if, for
a region pointer `'a T`, the lifetime `'a` is longer than any
lifetimes that appear in `T` (in other words, if a borrowed pointer
outlives any portion of its contents) and then (2) use this to assume
that in a function like `fn(self: &'a &'b T)`, the relationship `'a <=
'b` holds. This is needed for #5656. Fixes#5728.

A struct (inc. tuple struct) can be annotated with #[packed], so that there
is no padding between its elements, like GCC's `__attribute__((packed))`.
Closes#1704
This leaves the default lint modes at `warn`, but now the unused variable and dead assignment warnings are configurable on a per-item basis. As described in #3266, this just involved carrying around a couple ids to pass over to `span_lint`. I personally would prefer to keep the `_` prefix as well.
This closes#3266.
Cleanup substitutions and treatment of generics around traits in a number of ways
- In a TraitRef, use the self type consistently to refer to the Self type:
- trait ref in `impl Trait<A,B,C> for S` has a self type of `S`.
- trait ref in `A:Trait` has the self type `A`
- trait ref associated with a trait decl has self type `Self`
- trait ref associated with a supertype has self type `Self`
- trait ref in an object type `@Trait` has no self type
- Rewrite `each_bound_traits_and_supertraits` to perform
substitutions as it goes, and thus yield a series of trait refs
that are always in the same 'namespace' as the type parameter
bound given as input. Before, we left this to the caller, but
this doesn't work because the caller lacks adequare information
to perform the type substitutions correctly.
- For provided methods, substitute the generics involved in the provided
method correctly.
- Introduce TypeParameterDef, which tracks the bounds declared on a type
parameter and brings them together with the def_id and (in the future)
other information (maybe even the parameter's name!).
- Introduce Subst trait, which helps to cleanup a lot of the
repetitive code involved with doing type substitution.
- Introduce Repr trait, which makes debug printouts far more convenient.
Fixes#4183. Needed for #5656.

This naming is free now that `oldmap` has finally been removed, so this is a search-and-replace to take advantage of that. It might as well be called `HashMap` instead of being named after the specific implementation, since there's only one.
SipHash distributes keys so well that I don't think there will ever be much need to use anything but a simple hash table with open addressing. If there *is* a better way to do it, it will probably be better in all cases and can just be the default implementation.
A cuckoo-hashing implementation combining a weaker hash with SipHash could be useful, but that won't be as general purpose - you would need to write a separate fast hash function specialized for the type to really take advantage of it (like taking a page from libstdc++/libc++ and just using the integer value as the "hash"). I think a more specific naming for a truly alternative implementation like that would be fine, with the nice naming reserved for the general purpose container.
Changes the parser to parse all streams into token-trees before hitting the parser proper, in preparation for hygiene. As an added bonus, it appears to speed up the parser (albeit by a totally imperceptible 1%).
Also, many comments in the parser.
Also, field renaming in token-trees (readme->forest, cur->stack).
@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.
