This commit allows patterns like:
alt x { some(_) { ... } none { } }
without the '.' after none. The parser suspends judgment about
whether a bare ident is a tag or a new bound variable; instead,
the resolver disambiguates.
This means that any code after resolution that pattern-matches on
patterns needs to call pat_util::normalize_pat, which consults
an environment to do this disambiguation.
In addition, local variables are no longer allowed to shadow
tag names, so this required changing some code (e.g. renaming
variables named "mut", and renaming ast::sub to subtract).
The parser currently accepts patterns with and without the '.'.
Once the compiler and libraries are changed, it will no longer
accept the '.'.
Remove disr_val from ast::variant_ and always use ty::variant_info
when the value is needed. Move what was done during parsing into
other passes, primary typeck.rs. This move also correctly type checks
the disr. value expression; thus, fixing rustc --pretty=typed when
disr. values are used.
Addresses issue #1393.
For now disallow disr. values unless all variants use nullary
contractors (i.e. "enum-like").
Disr. values are now encoded in the crate metadata, but only when it
will differ from the inferred value based on the order.
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); } }
}
Something will still have to be done to the AST to make it possible to
say `x.foo::<int>()`, since currently field access never allows type
parameters.
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.

The path information was an optional "filename" component of crate
directive AST. It is now replaced by an attribute with metadata named
"path".
With this commit, a directive
mod foo = "foo.rs";
should be written as:
#[path = "foo.rs"]
mod foo;
Closes issue #906.
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
The reference now has an empty hole where the auth keyword used to be.
Changing the keyword table seems to require manually sorting the
keywords and putting them back into some kind of arcane interleaved
order. I'll open an issue to actually fix this.
Closes#1211
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.
