There is a broader revision (that does this across the board) pending
in #12675, but that is awaiting the arrival of more data (to decide
whether to keep OptVec alive by using a non-Vec internally).
For this code, the representation of lifetime lists needs to be the
same in both ScopeChain and in the ast and ty structures. So it
seemed cleanest to just use `vec_ng::Vec`, now that it has a cheaper
empty representation than the current `vec` code.
Formatting via reflection has been a little questionable for some time now, and
it's a little unfortunate that one of the standard macros will silently use
reflection when you weren't expecting it. This adds small bits of code bloat to
libraries, as well as not always being necessary. In light of this information,
this commit switches assert_eq!() to using {} in the error message instead of
{:?}.
In updating existing code, there were a few error cases that I encountered:
* It's impossible to define Show for [T, ..N]. I think DST will alleviate this
because we can define Show for [T].
* A few types here and there just needed a #[deriving(Show)]
* Type parameters needed a Show bound, I often moved this to `assert!(a == b)`
* `Path` doesn't implement `Show`, so assert_eq!() cannot be used on two paths.
I don't think this is much of a regression though because {:?} on paths looks
awful (it's a byte array).
Concretely speaking, this shaved 10K off a 656K binary. Not a lot, but sometime
significant for smaller binaries.
This commit alters the diagnostic emission machinery to be focused around a
Writer for emitting errors. This allows it to not hard-code emission of errors
to stderr (useful for other applications).
- `extra::json` didn't make the cut, because of `extra::json` required
dep on `extra::TreeMap`. If/when `extra::TreeMap` moves out of `extra`,
then `extra::json` could move into `serialize`
- `libextra`, `libsyntax` and `librustc` depend on the newly created
`libserialize`
- The extensions to various `extra` types like `DList`, `RingBuf`, `TreeMap`
and `TreeSet` for `Encodable`/`Decodable` were moved into the respective
modules in `extra`
- There is some trickery, evident in `src/libextra/lib.rs` where a stub
of `extra::serialize` is set up (in `src/libextra/serialize.rs`) for
use in the stage0 build, where the snapshot rustc is still making
deriving for `Encodable` and `Decodable` point at extra. Big props to
@huonw for help working out the re-export solution for this
extra: inline extra::serialize stub
fix stuff clobbered in rebase + don't reexport serialize::serialize
no more globs in libserialize
syntax: fix import of libserialize traits
librustc: fix bad imports in encoder/decoder
add serialize dep to librustdoc
fix failing run-pass tests w/ serialize dep
adjust uuid dep
more rebase de-clobbering for libserialize
fixing tests, pushing libextra dep into cfg(test)
fix doc code in extra::json
adjust index.md links to serialize and uuid library
The old method of serializing the AST gives totally bogus spans if the
expansion of an imported macro causes compilation errors. The best
solution seems to be to serialize the actual textual macro definition
and load it the same way the std-macros are. I'm not totally confident
that getting the source from the CodeMap will always do the right thing,
but it seems to work in simple cases.
* Reexport io::mem and io::buffered structs directly under io, make mem/buffered
private modules
* Remove with_mem_writer
* Remove DEFAULT_CAPACITY and use DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE (in io::buffered)

This is just an unnecessary trait that no one's ever going to parameterize over
and it's more useful to just define the methods directly on the types
themselves. The implementors of this type almost always don't want
inner_mut_ref() but they're forced to define it as well.
Right now the --crate-id and related flags are all process *after* the entire
crate is parsed. This is less than desirable when used with makefiles because it
means that just to learn the output name of the crate you have to parse the
entire crate (unnecessary).
This commit changes the behavior to lift the handling of these flags much sooner
in the compilation process. This allows us to not have to parse the entire crate
and only have to worry about parsing the crate attributes themselves. The
related methods have all been updated to take an array of attributes rather than
a crate.
Additionally, this ceases duplication of the "what output are we producing"
logic in order to correctly handle things in the case of --test.
Finally, this adds tests for all of this functionality to ensure that it does
not regress.
**Note**: I only tested on top of my #10670 PR, size reductions come from both change sets.
With this, [more enums are shrinked](https://gist.github.com/eddyb/08fef0dfc6ff54e890bc), the most significant one being `ast_node`, from 104 bytes (master) to 96 (#10670) and now to 32 bytes.
My own testcase requires **200MB** less when compiling (not including the other **200MB** gained in #10670), and rustc-stage2 is down by about **130MB**.
I believe there is more to gain by fiddling with the enums' layouts.
