This should be clearer, and fits in better with the `TTNonterminal` variant.
Renames:
- `TTTok` -> `TTToken`
- `TTDelim` -> `TTDelimited`
- `TTSeq` -> `TTSequence`
This came up when working [on the gl-rs generator extension](990383de80/src/gl_generator/lib.rs (L135-L146)).
The new definition of `TTDelim` adds an associated `Span` that covers the whole token tree and enforces the invariant that a delimited sequence of token trees must have an opening and closing delimiter.
A `get_span` method has also been added to `TokenTree` type to make it easier to implement better error messages for syntax extensions.
This change is an implementation of [RFC 69][rfc] which adds a third kind of
global to the language, `const`. This global is most similar to what the old
`static` was, and if you're unsure about what to use then you should use a
`const`.
The semantics of these three kinds of globals are:
* A `const` does not represent a memory location, but only a value. Constants
are translated as rvalues, which means that their values are directly inlined
at usage location (similar to a #define in C/C++). Constant values are, well,
constant, and can not be modified. Any "modification" is actually a
modification to a local value on the stack rather than the actual constant
itself.
Almost all values are allowed inside constants, whether they have interior
mutability or not. There are a few minor restrictions listed in the RFC, but
they should in general not come up too often.
* A `static` now always represents a memory location (unconditionally). Any
references to the same `static` are actually a reference to the same memory
location. Only values whose types ascribe to `Sync` are allowed in a `static`.
This restriction is in place because many threads may access a `static`
concurrently. Lifting this restriction (and allowing unsafe access) is a
future extension not implemented at this time.
* A `static mut` continues to always represent a memory location. All references
to a `static mut` continue to be `unsafe`.
This is a large breaking change, and many programs will need to be updated
accordingly. A summary of the breaking changes is:
* Statics may no longer be used in patterns. Statics now always represent a
memory location, which can sometimes be modified. To fix code, repurpose the
matched-on-`static` to a `const`.
static FOO: uint = 4;
match n {
FOO => { /* ... */ }
_ => { /* ... */ }
}
change this code to:
const FOO: uint = 4;
match n {
FOO => { /* ... */ }
_ => { /* ... */ }
}
* Statics may no longer refer to other statics by value. Due to statics being
able to change at runtime, allowing them to reference one another could
possibly lead to confusing semantics. If you are in this situation, use a
constant initializer instead. Note, however, that statics may reference other
statics by address, however.
* Statics may no longer be used in constant expressions, such as array lengths.
This is due to the same restrictions as listed above. Use a `const` instead.

Modify ast::ExprMatch to include a new value of type ast::MatchSource,
making it easy to tell whether the match was written literally or
produced via desugaring. This allows us to customize error messages
appropriately.
Part of issue #16640. I am leaving this issue open to handle parsing of
higher-rank lifetimes in traits.
This change breaks code that used unboxed closures:
* Instead of `F:|&: int| -> int`, write `F:Fn(int) -> int`.
* Instead of `F:|&mut: int| -> int`, write `F:FnMut(int) -> int`.
* Instead of `F:|: int| -> int`, write `F:FnOnce(int) -> int`.

The implementation essentially desugars during type collection and AST
type conversion time into the parameter scheme we have now. Only fully
qualified names--e.g. `<T as Foo>::Bar`--are supported.
This allows code to access the fields of tuples and tuple structs:
let x = (1i, 2i);
assert_eq!(x.1, 2);
struct Point(int, int);
let origin = Point(0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.1, 0);
This unifies the `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints
into one lint, `non_snake_case`. It also now checks for non-snake-case modules.
This also extends the non-camel-case types lint to check type parameters, and
merges the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` lint into the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint.
Because the `uppercase_variables` lint is now part of the `non_snake_case`
lint, all non-snake-case variables that start with lowercase characters (such
as `fooBar`) will now trigger the `non_snake_case` lint.
New code should be updated to use the new `non_snake_case` lint instead of the
previous `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints. All use of
the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` should be replaced with the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint. Any code that previously contained non-snake-case
module or variable names should be updated to use snake case names or disable
the `non_snake_case` lint. Any code with non-camel-case type parameters should
be changed to use camel case or disable the `non_camel_case_types` lint.

1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code.
2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible.
3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.
Stop read+write expressions from expanding into two occurences
in the AST. Add a bool to indicate whether an operand in output
position if read+write or not.

methods.
This paves the way to associated items by introducing an extra level of
abstraction ("impl-or-trait item") between traits/implementations and
methods. This new abstraction is encoded in the metadata and used
throughout the compiler where appropriate.
There are no functional changes; this is purely a refactoring.
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it prevents lifetimes from
leaking out of unboxed closures; (2) it allows unboxed closure type
notation, call notation, and construction notation to construct closures
matching any of the three traits.
This breaks code that looked like:
let mut f;
{
let x = &5i;
f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
}
Change this code to avoid having a reference escape. For example:
{
let x = &5i;
let mut f; // <-- move here to avoid dangling reference
f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
}
I believe this is enough to consider unboxed closures essentially
implemented. Further issues (for example, higher-rank lifetimes) should
be filed as followups.

This adds support to `quote_expr!` and friends for round-trip hygienic

Here are the pieces of the puzzle:
* adding a method for encoding Ident for re-reading into token tree.
* Support for reading such encoded Idents in the lexer. Note that one
must peek ahead for MOD_SEP after scan_embedded_hygienic_ident.
* To ensure that encoded Idents are only read when we are in the midst
of expanding a `quote_expr` or similar, added a
`read_embedded_ident` flag on `StringReader`.
* pprust support for encoding Ident's as (uint,uint) pairs (for hygiene).

The `type_overflow` lint, doesn't catch the overflow for `i64` because
the overflow happens earlier in the parse phase when the `u64` as biggest
possible int gets casted to `i64` , without checking the for overflows.
We can't lint in the parse phase, so a refactoring of the `LitInt` type
was necessary.
The types `LitInt`, `LitUint` and `LitIntUnsuffixed` where merged to one
type `LitInt` which stores it's value as `u64`. An additional parameter was
added which indicate the signedness of the type and the sign of the value.
Note: This PR is motivated by an attempt to write an custom syntax extension that tried to use `syntax::fold`, and that could only do so by fixing bugs in it and copying out private functions.

Refactored `syntax::fold`
Prior to this, the code there had a few issues:
- Default implementations inconsistenly either had the prefix `noop_` or
not.
- Some default methods where implemented in terms of a public noop function
for user code to call, others where implemented directly on the trait
and did not allow users of the trait to reuse the code.
- Some of the default implementations where private, and thus not reusable
for other implementors.
- There where some bugs where default implemntations called other default
implementations directly, rather than to the underlying Folder, with the
result of some ast nodes never being visted even if the user implemented that
method. (For example, the current Folder never folded struct fields)
This commit solves this situation somewhat radically by making __all__
`fold_...` functions in the module into Folder methods, and implementing
them all in terms of public `noop_...` functions for other implementors to
call out to.
Some public functions had to be renamed to fit the new system, so this is a
breaking change.

In f1ad425199, I changed the handling
of macros, to prevent macro invocations from occurring in fully expanded
source. Instead, I added a side table. It contained only the
spans of the macros, because this was the only information required
in order to make macro export work.
However, librustdoc was also affected by this change, since it
extracts macro information in a similar way. As a result of the earlier
change, exported macros were no longer documented.
In order to repair this, I've adjusted the side table to contain whole
items, rather than just the spans.
This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region
inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be
related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no
relation between the two regions before region substitution happens,
while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before
variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes
are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation.
This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language
yet, however.

This patch adds support for macros in method position. It follows roughly the template for Item macros, where an outer `Method` wrapper contains a `Method_` enum which can either be a macro invocation or a standard macro definition.
One note; adding support for macros that expand into multiple methods is not included here, but should be a simple parser change, since this patch updates the type of fold_macro to return a smallvector of methods.
For reviewers, please pay special attention to the parser changes; these are the ones I'm most concerned about.

This change propagates to many locations, but because of the
Macro Exterminator (or, more properly, the invariant that it
protects), macro invocations can't occur downstream of expansion.
This means that in librustc and librustdoc, extracting the
desired field can simply assume that it can't be a macro
invocation. Functions in ast_util abstract over this check.
* Don't warn about `#[crate_name]` if `--crate-name` is specified
* Don't warn about non camel case identifiers on `#[repr(C)]` structs
* Switch `mode` to `mode_t` in libc.
Our AST definition can include macro invocations, which can expand into all kinds of things. Macro invocations are expanded away during expansion time, and the rest of the compiler doesn't have to deal with them. However, we have no way of enforcing this.
This patch adds two protective mechanisms.
First, it adds a (quick) explicit check that ensures there are no macro invocations remaining in the AST after expansion. Second, it updates the visit and fold mechanisms so that by default, they will not traverse macro invocations. It's easy enough to add this, if desired (it's documented in the source, and examples appear, e.g. in the IdentFinder.
Along the way, I also consulted with @sfackler to refactor the macro export mechanism so that it stores macro text spans in a side table, rather than leaving them in the AST.
Per discussion with @sfackler, refactored the expander to
change the way that exported macros are collected. Specifically,
a crate now contains a side table of spans that exported macros
go into.
This has two benefits. First, the encoder doesn't need to scan through
the expanded crate in order to discover exported macros. Second, the
expander can drop all expanded macros from the crate, with the pleasant
result that a fully expanded crate contains no macro invocations (which
include macro definitions).
This removes a bunch of token types. Tokens now store the original, unaltered
numeric literal (that is still checked for correctness), which is parsed into
an actual number later, as needed, when creating the AST.
This can change how syntax extensions work, but otherwise poses no visible
changes.

Rather than just dumping the id in the interner, which is useless, actually
print the interned string. Adjust the lexer logging to use Show instead of
Poly.
formerly, the self identifier was being discarded during parsing, which
stymies hygiene. The best fix here seems to be to attach a self identifier
to ExplicitSelf_, a change that rippled through the rest of the compiler,

This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075.
Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path.
Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage.

Rationale: for what appear to be historical reasons only, the PatIdent contains
a Path rather than an Ident. This means that there are many places in the code
where an ident is artificially promoted to a path, and---much more problematically---
a bunch of elements from a path are simply thrown away, which seems like an invitation
to some really nasty bugs.
This commit replaces the Path in a PatIdent with a SpannedIdent, which just contains an ident
and a span.

This involves numerous substeps:

2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters.
3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method,

trait into the method's polytype.
