This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1044][rfc] which adds additional
surface area to the `std::fs` module. All new APIs are `#[unstable]` behind
assorted feature names for each one.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/1044
The new APIs added are:
* `fs::canonicalize` - bindings to `realpath` on unix and
`GetFinalPathNameByHandle` on windows.
* `fs::symlink_metadata` - similar to `lstat` on unix
* `fs::FileType` and accessor methods as `is_{file,dir,symlink}`
* `fs::Metadata::file_type` - accessor for the raw file type
* `fs::DirEntry::metadata` - acquisition of metadata which is free on Windows
but requires a syscall on unix.
* `fs::DirEntry::file_type` - access the file type which may not require a
syscall on most platforms.
* `fs::DirEntry::file_name` - access just the file name without leading
components.
* `fs::PathExt::symlink_metadata` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::canonicalize` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::read_link` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `fs::PathExt::read_dir` - convenience method for the top-level
function.
* `std::os::raw` - type definitions for raw OS/C types available on all
platforms.
* `std::os::$platform` - new modules have been added for all currently supported
platforms (e.g. those more specific than just `unix`).
* `std::os::$platform::raw` - platform-specific type definitions. These modules
are populated with the bare essentials necessary for lowing I/O types into
their raw representations, and currently largely consist of the `stat`
definition for unix platforms.
This commit also deprecates `Metadata::{modified, accessed}` in favor of
inspecting the raw representations via the lowering methods of `Metadata`.

- Functions in parser.rs return PResult<> rather than panicing
- Other functions in libsyntax call panic! explicitly for now if they rely on panicing behaviour.
- 'panictry!' macro added as scaffolding while converting panicing functions.
(This does the same as 'unwrap()' but is easier to grep for and turn into try!())
- Leaves panicing wrappers for the following functions so that the
quote_* macros behave the same:
- parse_expr, parse_item, parse_pat, parse_arm, parse_ty, parse_stmt
This commit removes parser support for `extern crate "foo" as bar` as the
renamed crate is now required to be an identifier. Additionally this commit
enables hard errors on crate names that contain hyphens in them, they must now
solely contain alphanumeric characters or underscores.
If the crate name is inferred from the file name, however, the file name
`foo-bar.rs` will have the crate name inferred as `foo_bar`. If a binary is
being emitted it will have the name `foo-bar` and a library will have the name
`libfoo_bar.rlib`.
This commit is a breaking change for a number of reasons:
* Old syntax is being removed. This was previously only issuing warnings.
* The output for the compiler when input is received on stdin is now `rust_out`
instead of `rust-out`.
* The crate name for a crate in the file `foo-bar.rs` is now `foo_bar` which can
affect infrastructure such as logging.
[breaking-change]
The compiler will now issue a warning for crates that have syntax of the form
`extern crate "foo" as bar`, but it will still continue to accept this syntax.
Additionally, the string `foo-bar` will match the crate name `foo_bar` to assist
in the transition period as well.
This patch will land hopefully in tandem with a Cargo patch that will start
translating all crate names to have underscores instead of hyphens.

Unstable items used in a macro expansion will now always trigger
stability warnings, *unless* the unstable items are directly inside a
macro marked with `#[allow_internal_unstable]`. IOW, the compiler warns
unless the span of the unstable item is a subspan of the definition of a
macro marked with that attribute.
E.g.
#[allow_internal_unstable]
macro_rules! foo {
($e: expr) => {{
$e;
unstable(); // no warning
only_called_by_foo!();
}}
}
macro_rules! only_called_by_foo {
() => { unstable() } // warning
}
foo!(unstable()) // warning
The unstable inside `foo` is fine, due to the attribute. But the
`unstable` inside `only_called_by_foo` is not, since that macro doesn't
have the attribute, and the `unstable` passed into `foo` is also not
fine since it isn't contained in the macro itself (that is, even though
it is only used directly in the macro).
In the process this makes the stability tracking much more precise,
e.g. previously `println!("{}", unstable())` got no warning, but now it
does. As such, this is a bug fix that may cause [breaking-change]s.
The attribute is definitely feature gated, since it explicitly allows
side-stepping the feature gating system.
This commit deprecates the majority of std::old_io::fs in favor of std::fs and
its new functionality. Some functions remain non-deprecated but are now behind a
feature gate called `old_fs`. These functions will be deprecated once
suitable replacements have been implemented.
The compiler has been migrated to new `std::fs` and `std::path` APIs where
appropriate as part of this change.
This allows to create proper debuginfo line information for items inlined from other crates (e.g. instantiations of generics).
Only the codemap's 'metadata' is stored in a crate's metadata. That is, just filename, line-beginnings, etc. but not the actual source code itself. We are thus missing the opportunity of making Rust the first "open-source-only" programming language out there. Pity.
#[plugin] #[no_link] extern crate bleh;
becomes a crate attribute
#![plugin(bleh)]
The feature gate is still required.
It's almost never correct to link a plugin into the resulting library /
executable, because it will bring all of libsyntax and librustc with it.
However if you really want this behavior, you can get it with a separate
`extern crate` item in addition to the `plugin` attribute.
Fixes#21043.
Fixes#20769.

Previously if --extern was specified it would not override crates in the
standard distribution, leading to issues like #21771. This commit alters the
behavior such that if --extern is passed then it will always override any other
choice of crates and no previous match will be used (unless it is the same path
as --extern).
Closes#21771
With the addition of separate search paths to the compiler, it was intended that
applications such as Cargo could require a `--extern` flag per `extern crate`
directive in the source. The system can currently be subverted, however, due to
the `existing_match()` logic in the crate loader.
When loading crates we first attempt to match an `extern crate` directive
against all previously loaded crates to avoid reading metadata twice. This "hit
the cache if possible" step was erroneously leaking crates across the search
path boundaries, however. For example:
extern crate b;
extern crate a;
If `b` depends on `a`, then it will load crate `a` when the `extern crate b`
directive is being processed. When the compiler reaches `extern crate a` it will
use the previously loaded version no matter what. If the compiler was not
invoked with `-L crate=path/to/a`, it will still succeed.
This behavior is allowing `extern crate` declarations in Cargo without a
corresponding declaration in the manifest of a dependency, which is considered
a bug.
This commit fixes this problem by keeping track of the origin search path for a
crate. Crates loaded from the dependency search path are not candidates for
crates which are loaded from the crate search path.
As a result of this fix, this is a likely a breaking change for a number of
Cargo packages. If the compiler starts informing that a crate can no longer be
found, it likely means that the dependency was forgotten in your Cargo.toml.
[breaking-change]
This warning has been around in the compiler for quite some time now, but the
real place for a warning like this, if it should exist, is in Cargo, not in the
compiler itself. It's a first-class feature of Cargo that multiple versions of a
crate can be compiled into the same executable, and we shouldn't be warning
about our first-class features.
Instead of copy-pasting the whole macro_rules! item from the original .rs file,
we serialize a separate name, attributes list, and body, the latter as
pretty-printed TTs. The compilation of macro_rules! macros is decoupled
somewhat from the expansion of macros in item position.
This filters out comments, and facilitates selective imports.
This commit adds support for the compiler to distinguish between different forms
of lookup paths in the compiler itself. Issue #19767 has some background on this
topic, as well as some sample bugs which can occur if these lookup paths are not
separated.
This commits extends the existing command line flag `-L` with the same trailing
syntax as the `-l` flag. Each argument to `-L` can now have a trailing `:all`,
`:native`, `:crate`, or `:dependency`. This suffix indicates what form of lookup
path the compiler should add the argument to. The `dependency` lookup path is
used when looking up crate dependencies, the `crate` lookup path is used when
looking for immediate dependencies (`extern crate` statements), and the `native`
lookup path is used for probing for native libraries to insert into rlibs. Paths
with `all` are used for all of these purposes (the default).
The default compiler lookup path (the rustlib libdir) is by default added to all
of these paths. Additionally, the `RUST_PATH` lookup path is added to all of
these paths.
Closes#19767
