method calls are involved.
This breaks code like:
impl<T:Copy> Foo for T { ... }
fn take_param<T:Foo>(foo: &T) { ... }
fn main() {
let x = box 3i; // note no `Copy` bound
take_param(&x);
}
Change this code to not contain a type error. For example:
impl<T:Copy> Foo for T { ... }
fn take_param<T:Foo>(foo: &T) { ... }
fn main() {
let x = 3i; // satisfies `Copy` bound
take_param(&x);
}
Closes#15860.

This makes edge cases in which the `Iterator` trait was not in scope
and/or `Option` or its variants were not in scope work properly.
This breaks code that looks like:
struct MyStruct { ... }
impl MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
for x in MyStruct { ... } { ... }
Change ad-hoc `next` methods like the above to implementations of the
`Iterator` trait. For example:
impl Iterator<int> for MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
Closes#15392.

This is done entirely in the libraries for functions up to 16 arguments.
A macro is used so that more arguments can be easily added if we need.
Note that I had to adjust the overloaded call algorithm to not try
calling the overloaded call operator if the callee is a built-in
function type, to prevent loops.
Closes#15448.
At the moment, writing generic functions for integer types that involve shifting is rather verbose. For example, a function at shifts an integer left by 1 currently requires
use std::num::One;
fn f<T: Int>(x : T) -> T {
x << One::one()
}
If the shift amount is not 1, it's even worse:
use std::num::FromPrimitive;
fn f<T: Int + FromPrimitive>(x: T) -> T {
x << FromPrimitive::from_int(2).unwrap()
}
This patch allows the much simpler implementation
fn f<T: Int>(x: T) -> T {
x << 2
}
It accomplishes this by changing the built-in integer types (and the `Int` trait) to implement `Shl<uint, T>` instead of `Shl<T, T>` as it currently is defined. Note that the internal implementations of `shl` already cast the right-hand side to `uint`. `BigInt` also implements `Shl<uint, BigInt>`, so this increases consistency.
All of the above applies similarly to right shifts, i.e., `Shr<uint, T>`.
Summary:
* alloc::rc module stable
* Rc type stable
* Functions relating to weak references experimental
* core::cmp module stable
* PartialEq/Eq/PartialOrd/Ord unstable because trait reform will make them change again
* Equiv experimental because there may be better sol'ns
* lexical_ordering deprecated because it can be done trivially with the Ord trait
* min/max stable
* std::task module stable
* TaskBuilder::stdout/stderr experimental because we aren't certain we want to configure the environment this way
* try_future experimental because Future is experimental
* try unstable because the error type might change
* deschedule/failing unstable
The major thing I did differently than previously-discussed is that I made `try` experimental: there's been discussion that the error type `Box<Any + Send>` is not sufficient.

Reimplement the string slice's `Iterator<char>` by wrapping the already efficient
slice iterator.
The iterator uses our guarantee that the string contains valid UTF-8, but its only unsafe
code is transmuting the decoded `u32` into `char`.
Benchmarks suggest that the runtime of `Chars` benchmarks are reduced by up to 30%,
runtime of `Chars` reversed reduced by up to 60%.

Note: Branch name is no longer indicative of the implementation.
Mark Eq, PartialEq, Ord, PartialOrd as unstable: they will change
slightly after trait reform. Equiv as experimental: better solutions
are desired. min/max stable.
Thanks to comments from @alexcrichton, write the next/next_back function
bodies without nested functions in a more top-to-bottom flow style.
Also improve comment style and motivate the unsafe blocks with comments.
Thanks to comments from @huonw, clarify decoding details and use
statics for important constants for UTF-8 decoding. Convert some magic
numbers scattered in the same file to use the statics too.
Re-use the vector iterator to implement the chars iterator.
The iterator uses our guarantee that the string contains valid UTF-8,
but its only unsafe code is transmuting the decoded u32 into char.
This PR is the outcome of the library stabilization meeting for the
`liballoc::owned` and `libcore::cell` modules.
Aside from the stability attributes, there are a few breaking changes:
* The `owned` modules is now named `boxed`, to better represent its
contents. (`box` was unavailable, since it's a keyword.) This will
help avoid the misconception that `Box` plays a special role wrt
ownership.
* The `AnyOwnExt` extension trait is renamed to `BoxAny`, and its `move`
method is renamed to `downcast`, in both cases to improve clarity.
* The recently-added `AnySendOwnExt` extension trait is removed; it was
not being used and is unnecessary.

Implementation by Kevin Ballard.
The function returns an Unfold iterator producing an infinite stream
of results of repeated applications of the function, starting from
the provided seed value.
The current example of a spinlock was not correct. The lock is actually acquired
when `old == result`. So we only need to deschedule when this is not the case.
code bloat.
This didn't make a difference in any compile times that I saw, but it
fits what we're doing with `transmute` and seems prudent.

when old == result. So we only need to deschedule when this is not the case.
Similar to the stability attributes, a type annotated with `#[must_use =
"informative snippet"]` will print the normal warning message along with
"informative snippet". This allows the type author to provide some
guidance about why the type should be used.

It can be a little unintuitive that something like `v.iter().map(|x|
println!("{}", x));` does nothing: the majority of the iterator adaptors
are lazy and do not execute anything until something calls `next`, e.g.
a `for` loop, `collect`, `fold`, etc.
The majority of such errors can be seen by someone writing something
like the above, i.e. just calling an iterator adaptor and doing nothing
with it (and doing this is certainly useless), so we can co-opt the
`must_use` lint, using the message functionality to give a hint to the
reason why.
Fixes#14666.

Add libunicode; move unicode functions from core
- created new crate, libunicode, below libstd
- split `Char` trait into `Char` (libcore) and `UnicodeChar` (libunicode)
- Unicode-aware functions now live in libunicode
- `is_alphabetic`, `is_XID_start`, `is_XID_continue`, `is_lowercase`,
`is_uppercase`, `is_whitespace`, `is_alphanumeric`, `is_control`, `is_digit`,
`to_uppercase`, `to_lowercase`
- added `width` method in UnicodeChar trait
- determines printed width of character in columns, or None if it is a non-NULL control character
- takes a boolean argument indicating whether the present context is CJK or not (characters with 'A'mbiguous widths are double-wide in CJK contexts, single-wide otherwise)
- split `StrSlice` into `StrSlice` (libcore) and `UnicodeStrSlice` (libunicode)
- functionality formerly in `StrSlice` that relied upon Unicode functionality from `Char` is now in `UnicodeStrSlice`
- `words`, `is_whitespace`, `is_alphanumeric`, `trim`, `trim_left`, `trim_right`
- also moved `Words` type alias into libunicode because `words` method is in `UnicodeStrSlice`
- unified Unicode tables from libcollections, libcore, and libregex into libunicode
- updated `unicode.py` in `src/etc` to generate aforementioned tables
- generated new tables based on latest Unicode data
- added `UnicodeChar` and `UnicodeStrSlice` traits to prelude
- libunicode is now the collection point for the `std::char` module, combining the libunicode functionality with the `Char` functionality from libcore
- thus, moved doc comment for `char` from `core::char` to `unicode::char`
- libcollections remains the collection point for `std::str`
The Unicode-aware functions that previously lived in the `Char` and `StrSlice` traits are no longer available to programs that only use libcore. To regain use of these methods, include the libunicode crate and `use` the `UnicodeChar` and/or `UnicodeStrSlice` traits:
extern crate unicode;
use unicode::UnicodeChar;
use unicode::UnicodeStrSlice;
use unicode::Words; // if you want to use the words() method
NOTE: this does *not* impact programs that use libstd, since UnicodeChar and UnicodeStrSlice have been added to the prelude.

Extend the null ptr optimization to work with slices, closures, procs, & trait objects by using the internal pointers as the discriminant.
This decreases the size of `Option<&[int]>` (and similar) by one word.
