Move format_args!() into AST (and expand it during AST lowering)
Implements https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/541
This moves FormatArgs from rustc_builtin_macros to rustc_ast_lowering. For now, the end result is the same. But this allows for future changes to do smarter things with format_args!(). It also allows Clippy to directly access the ast::FormatArgs, making things a lot easier.
This change turns the format args types into lang items. The builtin macro used to refer to them by their path. After this change, the path is no longer relevant, making it easier to make changes in `core`.
This updates clippy to use the new language items, but this doesn't yet make clippy use the ast::FormatArgs structure that's now available. That should be done after this is merged.
Teach parser to understand fake anonymous enum syntax
Parse `Ty | OtherTy` in function argument and return types.
Parse type ascription in top level patterns.
Minimally address #100741.
Convert all the crates that have had their diagnostic migration
completed (except save_analysis because that will be deleted soon and
apfloat because of the licensing problem).
Document some of the AST nodes
Someone was confused about some of this on Zulip, added some docs
We probably should make sure every last field/variant in the AST/HIR is documented at some point
`@bors` rollup
Remove the `..` from the body, only a few invocations used it and it's
inconsistent with rust syntax.
Use `;` instead of `,` between consts. As the Rust syntax gods inteded.
This removes the `custom` format functionality as its only user was
trivially migrated to using a normal format.
If a new use case for a custom formatting impl pops up, you can add it
back.
Remove `token::Lit` from `ast::MetaItemLit`.
Currently `ast::MetaItemLit` represents the literal kind twice. This PR removes that redundancy. Best reviewed one commit at a time.
r? `@petrochenkov`
It has a single call site in the HIR pretty printer, where the resulting
token lit is immediately converted to a string.
This commit replaces `LitKind::synthesize_token_lit` with a `Display`
impl for `LitKind`, which can be used by the HIR pretty printer.
There are better ways to create the meta items.
- In the rustdoc tests, the commit adds `dummy_meta_item_name_value`,
which matches the existing `dummy_meta_item_word` function and
`dummy_meta_item_list` macro.
- In `types.rs` the commit clones the existing meta item and then
modifies the clone.
Remove useless borrows and derefs
They are nothing more than noise.
<sub>These are not all of them, but my clippy started crashing (stack overflow), so rip :(</sub>
`token::Lit` contains a `kind` field that indicates what kind of literal
it is. `ast::MetaItemLit` currently wraps a `token::Lit` but also has
its own `kind` field. This means that `ast::MetaItemLit` encodes the
literal kind in two different ways.
This commit changes `ast::MetaItemLit` so it no longer wraps
`token::Lit`. It now contains the `symbol` and `suffix` fields from
`token::Lit`, but not the `kind` field, eliminating the redundancy.
This is required to distinguish between cooked and raw byte string
literals in an `ast::LitKind`, without referring to an adjacent
`token::Lit`. It's a prerequisite for the next commit.
Lower them into a single item with multiple resolutions instead.
This also allows to remove additional `NodId`s and `DefId`s related to those additional items.
There is code for converting `Attribute` (syntactic) to `MetaItem`
(semantic). There is also code for the reverse direction. The reverse
direction isn't really necessary; it's currently only used when
generating attributes, e.g. in `derive` code.
This commit adds some new functions for creating `Attributes`s directly,
without involving `MetaItem`s: `mk_attr_word`, `mk_attr_name_value_str`,
`mk_attr_nested_word`, and
`ExtCtxt::attr_{word,name_value_str,nested_word}`.
These new methods replace the old functions for creating `Attribute`s:
`mk_attr_inner`, `mk_attr_outer`, and `ExtCtxt::attribute`. Those
functions took `MetaItem`s as input, and relied on many other functions
that created `MetaItems`, which are also removed: `mk_name_value_item`,
`mk_list_item`, `mk_word_item`, `mk_nested_word_item`,
`{MetaItem,MetaItemKind,NestedMetaItem}::token_trees`,
`MetaItemKind::attr_args`, `MetaItemLit::{from_lit_kind,to_token}`,
`ExtCtxt::meta_word`.
Overall this cuts more than 100 lines of code and makes thing simpler.
