Before, literal printing would basically get derailed completely when
a literal was encountered that did not end up being printed. This
caused the strangeness seen in #1532.
Also cleans up pretty-printing of discriminants a little.
Closes#1510Closes#1532
Use ifaces instead of objs, stop wrapping everything in two (or three)
layers of no-value-added indirection, and remove some of the more
pointless/outdated idioms from the code.
The (temporary) syntax is
iface seq<T> {
fn len() -> uint;
fn iter(f: block(T));
}
// The 'blah<T>' can be left of to default the name of the
// impl to seq<T>. The 'of seq<T>' can be left off when
// not implementing a named interface.
impl blah<T> of seq<T> for [T] {
fn len() -> uint { vec::len(self) }
fn iter(f: block(T)) { for x in self { f(x); } }
}
We should probalby warn when defining a method foo on {foo: int} etc.
This should reduce the amount of useless typevars that are allocated.
Issue #1227
Move the name of the bundle to the front, allow type parameters (not
handled yet), and add a 'for' keyword:
impl utils for int {
fn str() -> str { int::str(self) }
fn times(f: block()) { ... }
}
Get rid of expr_self_call, introduces def_self. `self` is now,
syntactically, simply a variable. A method implicitly brings a `self`
binding into scope.
Issue #1227
See src/test/run-pass/nested-patterns.rs for some examples. The syntax is
boundvar@subpattern
Which will match the subpattern as usual, but also bind boundvar to the
whole matched value.
Closes#838
Also shuffles around the organization of numeric literals and types,
separating by int/uint/float instead of machine-vs-non-machine types.
This simplifies some code.
Closes#974Closes#1252
It's proving too inflexible, so I'm ripping out the extra complexity
in the hope that regions will, at some point, provide something
similar.
Closes#918
This involved adding 'copy' to more generics than I hoped, but an
experiment with making it implicit showed that that way lies madness --
unless enforced, you will not remember to mark functions that don't
copy as not requiring copyable kind.
Issue #1177
This is intended to solve the problem of how to pass arguments to
constructor functions -- you want to move in rvalues, but not have to
explicitly copy stuff that is not an rvalue. The by-copy passing
convention will ensure the callee gets its own copy of the value. For
rvalues, it'll just pass off the value. For lvalues, it'll make a
copy.
Issue #1177
This goes before a snapshot, so that subsequenct patches can make the
transition without breaking the build. Disables kind checking pass, makes
parser accept both new and old-style kind annotation.
