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.
Issue #1177
This patch changes how to specify ABI and link name of a native module.
Before:
native "cdecl" mod llvm = "rustllvm" {...}
After:
#[abi = "cdecl"]
#[link_name = "rustllvm"]
native mod llvm {...}
The old optional syntax for ABI and link name is no longer supported.
Fixes issue #547
It now threads information about invalidated aliases through the AST
properly. This makes it more permissive for conditionals (invalidating
an alias in one branch doesn't prevent you from using it in another),
and less permissive for loops (it now properly notices when a loop
invalidates an alias that it might still use in another iteration).
Closes#1144
