This gets rid of the 'experimental' level, removes the non-staged_api
case (i.e. stability levels for out-of-tree crates), and lets the
staged_api attributes use 'unstable' and 'deprecated' lints.
This makes the transition period to the full feature staging design
a bit nicer.
This partially implements the feature staging described in the
[release channel RFC][rc]. It does not yet fully conform to the RFC as
written, but does accomplish its goals sufficiently for the 1.0 alpha
release.
It has three primary user-visible effects:
* On the nightly channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of unstable APIs generates a warning.
* On the beta channel, use of feature gates generates a warning.
Code that does not trigger these warnings is considered 'stable',
modulo pre-1.0 bugs.
Disabling the warnings for unstable APIs continues to be done in the
existing (i.e. old) style, via `#[allow(...)]`, not that specified in
the RFC. I deem this marginally acceptable since any code that must do
this is not using the stable dialect of Rust.
Use of feature gates is itself gated with the new 'unstable_features'
lint, on nightly set to 'allow', and on beta 'warn'.
The attribute scheme used here corresponds to an older version of the
RFC, with the `#[staged_api]` crate attribute toggling the staging
behavior of the stability attributes, but the user impact is only
in-tree so I'm not concerned about having to make design changes later
(and I may ultimately prefer the scheme here after all, with the
`#[staged_api]` crate attribute).
Since the Rust codebase itself makes use of unstable features the
compiler and build system to a midly elaborate dance to allow it to
bootstrap while disobeying these lints (which would otherwise be
errors because Rust builds with `-D warnings`).
This patch includes one significant hack that causes a
regression. Because the `format_args!` macro emits calls to unstable
APIs it would trigger the lint. I added a hack to the lint to make it
not trigger, but this in turn causes arguments to `println!` not to be
checked for feature gates. I don't presently understand macro
expansion well enough to fix. This is bug #20661.
Closes#16678
[rc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0507-release-channels.md
There's been some debate over the precise form that these APIs should take, and
they've undergone some changes recently, so these APIs are going to be left
unstable for now to be fleshed out during the next release cycle.
fmt::Show is for debugging, and can and should be implemented for
all public types. This trait is used with `{:?}` syntax. There still
exists #[derive(Show)].
fmt::String is for types that faithfully be represented as a String.
Because of this, there is no way to derive fmt::String, all
implementations must be purposeful. It is used by the default format
syntax, `{}`.
This will break most instances of `{}`, since that now requires the type
to impl fmt::String. In most cases, replacing `{}` with `{:?}` is the
correct fix. Types that were being printed specifically for users should
receive a fmt::String implementation to fix this.

parameters on impls must now also appear in the trait ref, self type,
or some associated type declared on the impl. This ensures that they
are constrianed in some way and that the semantics of the trait system
are well-defined (always a good thing).
There are three major ways to fix this error:
1. Convert the trait to use associated types; most often the type
parameters are not constrained because they are in fact outputs of
the impl.
2. Move the type parameters to methods.
3. Add an additional type parameter to the self type or trait so that
the unused parameter can appear there.
In some cases, it is not possible to fix the impl because the trait
definition needs to be changed first (and that may be out of your
control). In that case, for the time being, you can opt out of these
rules by using `#[old_impl_check]` on the impl and adding a
`#![feature(old_impl_check)]` to your crate declaration.
`#[deriving]` has been changed to `#[derive]`, so we should update this lint accordingly so that it remains consistent with the language.
Also register the rename with the LintStore.
I've changed the one reference to `raw_pointer_deriving` that occurs in the tests (as well as renamed the file appropriately), but the rest of the `raw_pointer_deriving`s in the Rust codebase will need to wait for a snapshot to be changed because stage0 doesn't know about the new lint name. I'll take care of the remaining renaming after the next snapshot.
Closes#20498.
- the self type includes some local type; and,
- type parameters in the self type must be constrained by a local type.
A type parameter is called *constrained* if it appears in some type-parameter of a local type.
Here are some examples that are accepted. In all of these examples, I
assume that `Foo` is a trait defined in another crate. If `Foo` were
defined in the local crate, then all the examples would be legal.
- `impl Foo for LocalType`
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType` -- T does not appear in Self, so it is OK
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType<T>` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for (LocalType<T>, T)` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
Here are some illegal examples (again, these examples assume that
`Foo` is not local to the current crate):
- `impl Foo for int` -- the Self type is not local
- `impl<T> Foo for T` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
- `impl<T> Foo for (LocalType, T)` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
This is a [breaking-change]. For the time being, you can opt out of
the new rules by placing `#[old_orphan_check]` on the trait (and
enabling the feature gate where the trait is defined). Longer term,
you should restructure your traits to avoid the problem. Usually this
means changing the order of parameters so that the "central" type
parameter is in the `Self` position.
As an example of that refactoring, consider the `BorrowFrom` trait:
```rust
pub trait BorrowFrom<Sized? Owned> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Owned) -> &Self;
}
```
As defined, this trait is commonly implemented for custom pointer
types, such as `Arc`. Those impls follow the pattern:
```rust
impl<T> BorrowFrom<Arc<T>> for T {...}
```
Unfortunately, this impl is illegal because the self type `T` is not
local to the current crate. Therefore, we are going to change the order of the parameters,
so that `BorrowFrom` becomes `Borrow`:
```rust
pub trait Borrow<Sized? Borrowed> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Self) -> &Borrowed;
}
```
Now the `Arc` impl is written:
```rust
impl<T> Borrow<T> for Arc<T> { ... }
```
This impl is legal because the self type (`Arc<T>`) is local.

as shown below:

which should always result in an error.
NB. Some of the hunks in this commit rely on a later commit which adds
`tcx` into `param_env` and modifies `ParameterEnvironment` to
implement `Typer`.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization
story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports.
Some reexports are kept around, however:
* `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn.
* `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to
prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed.
* All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all
at once to `std::io::prelude::*`.
This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and
the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to
find the locations of where to import them.

This stabilizes most methods on `&str` working with patterns in a way that is forwards-compatible with a generic string pattern matching API:
- Methods that are using the primary name for their operation are marked as `#[stable]`, as they can be upgraded to a full `Pattern` API later without existing code breaking. Example: `contains(&str)`
- Methods that are using a more specific name in order to not clash with the primary one are marked as `#[unstable]`, as they will likely be removed once their functionality is merged into the primary one. Example: `contains_char<C: CharEq>(C)`
- The method docs got changed to consistently refer to the pattern types as a pattern.
- Methods whose names do not match in the context of the more generic API got renamed. Example: `trim_chars -> trim_matches`
Additionally, all methods returning iterators got changed to return unique new types with changed names in accordance with the new naming guidelines.

This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting
semicolons after them, such as:
fn main() {

It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons:

Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as

This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.
This breaks code like:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
Change this code to:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
impl Copy for Point2D {}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}

'Numeric' is the proper name of the unicode character class,
and this frees up the word 'digit' for ascii use in libcore.
Since I'm going to rename `Char::is_digit_radix` to
`is_digit`, I am not leaving a deprecated method in place,
because that would just cause name clashes, as both
`Char` and `UnicodeChar` are in the prelude.

This is especially useful for declaring a static with external linkage in an executable. There isn't any way to do that currently since we mark everything in an executable as internal by default.
Also, a quick fix to have the no-compiler-rt target option respected when building staticlibs as well.
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to

let a = A;

```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {

This implements a considerable portion of rust-lang/rfcs#369 (tracked in #18640). Some interpretations had to be made in order to get this to work. The breaking changes are listed below:
[breaking-change]
- `core::num::{Num, Unsigned, Primitive}` have been deprecated and their re-exports removed from the `{std, core}::prelude`.
- `core::num::{Zero, One, Bounded}` have been deprecated. Use the static methods on `core::num::{Float, Int}` instead. There is no equivalent to `Zero::is_zero`. Use `(==)` with `{Float, Int}::zero` instead.
- `Signed::abs_sub` has been moved to `std::num::FloatMath`, and is no longer implemented for signed integers.
- `core::num::Signed` has been removed, and its methods have been moved to `core::num::Float` and a new trait, `core::num::SignedInt`. The methods now take the `self` parameter by value.
- `core::num::{Saturating, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub, CheckedMul, CheckedDiv}` have been removed, and their methods moved to `core::num::Int`. Their parameters are now taken by value. This means that
- `std::time::Duration` no longer implements `core::num::{Zero, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub}` instead defining the required methods non-polymorphically.
- `core::num::{zero, one, abs, signum}` have been deprecated. Use their respective methods instead.
- The `core::num::{next_power_of_two, is_power_of_two, checked_next_power_of_two}` functions have been deprecated in favor of methods defined a new trait, `core::num::UnsignedInt`
- `core::iter::{AdditiveIterator, MultiplicativeIterator}` are now only implemented for the built-in numeric types.
- `core::iter::{range, range_inclusive, range_step, range_step_inclusive}` now require `core::num::Int` to be implemented for the type they a re parametrized over.
