Addresses issue #1393.
For now disallow disr. values unless all variants use nullary
contractors (i.e. "enum-like").
Disr. values are now encoded in the crate metadata, but only when it
will differ from the inferred value based on the order.
Now, if you have a tag named "foo", a variable declaration like
"let foo..." is illegal. This change makes it possible to eliminate
the '.' after a nullary tag pattern in an alt (but I'll be doing
that in a future commit) -- as now it's always obvious whether a
name refers to a tag or a new declared variable.
resolve implements this change -- all the other changes are just to
get rid of existing code that declares variables that shadow tag
names.
We should probalby warn when defining a method foo on {foo: int} etc.
This should reduce the amount of useless typevars that are allocated.
Issue #1227
I think it should undefined to have multiple modules that link in the same
library, but provide different link arguments. Unfortunately we don't track
link_args by module -- they are just appended as discovered into the crate
store -- but for now, it should be an error to provide link_args on a module
that's already been included (with or without link_args).
Get rid of expr_self_call, introduces def_self. `self` is now,
syntactically, simply a variable. A method implicitly brings a `self`
binding into scope.
Issue #1227
The path information was an optional "filename" component of crate
directive AST. It is now replaced by an attribute with metadata named
"path".
With this commit, a directive
mod foo = "foo.rs";
should be written as:
#[path = "foo.rs"]
mod foo;
Closes issue #906.
It's proving too inflexible, so I'm ripping out the extra complexity
in the hope that regions will, at some point, provide something
similar.
Closes#918
This involved adding 'copy' to more generics than I hoped, but an
experiment with making it implicit showed that that way lies madness --
unless enforced, you will not remember to mark functions that don't
copy as not requiring copyable kind.
Issue #1177
This goes before a snapshot, so that subsequenct patches can make the
transition without breaking the build. Disables kind checking pass, makes
parser accept both new and old-style kind annotation.
