The compiler was updated to recognize that implementations for ty_uniq(..) are
allowed if the Box lang item is located in the current crate. This enforces the
idea that libcore cannot allocated, and moves all related trait implementations
from libcore to libstd.
This is a breaking change in that the AnyOwnExt trait has moved from the any
module to the owned module. Any previous users of std::any::AnyOwnExt should now
use std::owned::AnyOwnExt instead. This was done because the trait is intended
for Box traits and only Box traits.
[breaking-change]
- Added `TraitObject` representation to `std::raw`.
- Added doc to `std::raw`.
- Removed `Any::as_void_ptr()` and `Any::as_mut_void_ptr()`
methods as they are uneccessary now after the removal of
headers on owned boxes. This reduces the number of virtual calls needed.
- Made the `..Ext` implementations work directly with the repr of
a trait object.
- Removed `Any`-related traits from the prelude.
- Added bench for `Any`
- `begin_unwind` is now generic over any `T: Any + Send`.
- Every value you fail with gets boxed as an `~Any`.
- Because of implementation details, `&'static str` and `~str` are still
handled specially behind the scenes.
- Changed the big macro source string in libsyntax to a raw string
literal, and enabled doc comments there.
Some code cleanup, sorting of import blocks
Removed std::unstable::UnsafeArc's use of Either
Added run-fail tests for the new FailWithCause impls
Changed future_result and try to return Result<(), ~Any>.
- Internally, there is an enum of possible fail messages passend around.
- In case of linked failure or a string message, the ~Any gets
lazyly allocated in future_results recv method.
- For that, future result now returns a wrapper around a Port.
- Moved and renamed task::TaskResult into rt::task::UnwindResult
and made it an internal enum.
- Introduced a replacement typedef `type TaskResult = Result<(), ~Any>`.
