Clearer Error Message for Duplicate Definition
Clearer use of the error message and span labels to communicate duplication definitions/imports.
fixes#42061
Convert `Into<Box<[T]>> for Vec<T>` into `From<Vec<T>> for Box<[T]>`
As the `collections` crate has been merged into `alloc` in #42648 this impl is now possible. This is the final part of #42129 missing from #42227.
add `FromStr` Impl for `char`
fixes#24939.
is it possible to use pub(restricted) instead of using a stability attribute for the internal error representation? is it needed at all?
This commit deletes the in-tree `getopts` crate in favor of the crates.io-based
`getopts` crate. The main difference here is with a new builder-style API, but
otherwise everything else remains relatively standard.
The unwind path is always cold, so that should not have bad performance
implications. This avoids catastrophic exponential inlining, and also
decreases the size of librustc.so by 1.5% (OTOH, the size of `libstd.so`
increased by 0.5% for some reason).
Fixes#41696.
A long time coming this commit removes the `flate` crate in favor of the
`flate2` crate on crates.io. The functionality in `flate2` originally flowered
out of `flate` itself and is additionally the namesake for the crate. This will
leave a gap in the naming (there's not `flate` crate), which will likely cause a
particle collapse of some form somewhere.
Enable wasm LLVM backend
Enables compilation to WebAssembly with the LLVM backend using the target triple "wasm32-unknown-unknown". This is the beginning of my work on #38804.
**edit:** The new new target is now wasm32-experimental-emscripten instead of wasm32-unknown-unknown.
Allocator integration
Lets start getting some feedback on `trait Alloc`.
Here is:
* the `trait Alloc` itself,
* the `struct Layout` and `enum AllocErr` that its API relies on
* a `struct HeapAlloc` that exposes the system allocator as an instance of `Alloc`
* an integration of `Alloc` with `RawVec`
* ~~an integration of `Alloc` with `Vec`~~
TODO
* [x] split `fn realloc_in_place` into `grow` and `shrink` variants
* [x] add `# Unsafety` and `# Errors` sections to documentation for all relevant methods
* [x] remove `Vec` integration with `Allocator`
* [x] add `allocate_zeroed` impl to `HeapAllocator`
* [x] remove typedefs e.g. `type Size = usize;`
* [x] impl `trait Error` for all error types in PR
* [x] make `Layout::from_size_align` public
* [x] clarify docs of `fn padding_needed_for`.
* [x] revise `Layout` constructors to ensure that [size+align combination is valid](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42313#issuecomment-306845446)
* [x] resolve mismatch re requirements of align on dealloc. See [comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/42313#issuecomment-306202489).
I could have made representability a cached query, but that would have
been added complexity for not much benefit - outside of the exponential
worst-case, this pass is fast enough already.
Fixes#42747.
