This flag to the linker asks it to strip away all dead code during linking, as
well as dead data. This reduces the size of hello world from 1.7MB to 458K on my
system (70% reduction).
I have not seen this impact link times negatively, and I have seen this pass
'make check' successfully. I am slightly wary of adding this option, but the
benefits are so huge tha I think we should work hard to work around any issues
rather than avoid using the flag entirely.
All links inside docblocks will have their color set to `#4e8bca` (a
light blue color to contrast against the black text). This color also
offers a visible contrast from the surrounding text if viewed as
grayscale, making it suitable for accessability.
Docblock links will also be underlined when hovered over.
Currently, in both chrome and firefox, if I type something in the search box in the reference docs I get immediately the search results. That's great. However, if I want to go back to the doc I was reading and try to press the back button, I am immediately forwarded again to the search results. This is caused by the fact that the search term is (deliberately) left in the search box, and the search() function is called as if I typed the search term again.
I disabled calling the search() function if there's no search term in the URL, and now it seems to work fine.
I hope I'm sending the pull request correctly - I'm not really used to git and github.
Compile-fail tests for syntax extensions belong in this suite which has correct
dependencies on all artifacts rather than just the target artifacts.
Closes#13818
This commit deprecates rev_iter, mut_rev_iter, move_rev_iter everywhere (except treemap) and also
deprecates related functions like rsplit, rev_components, and rev_str_components. In every case,
these functions can be replaced with the non-reversed form followed by a call to .rev(). To make this
more concrete, a translation table for all functional changes necessary follows:
* container.rev_iter() -> container.iter().rev()
* container.mut_rev_iter() -> container.mut_iter().rev()
* container.move_rev_iter() -> container.move_iter().rev()
* sliceorstr.rsplit(sep) -> sliceorstr.split(sep).rev()
* path.rev_components() -> path.components().rev()
* path.rev_str_components() -> path.str_components().rev()
In terms of the type system, this change also deprecates any specialized reversed iterator types (except
in treemap), opting instead to use Rev directly if any type annotations are needed. However, since
methods directly returning reversed iterators are now discouraged, the need for such annotations should
be small. However, in those cases, the general pattern for conversion is to take whatever follows Rev in
the original reversed name and surround it with Rev<>:
* RevComponents<'a> -> Rev<Components<'a>>
* RevStrComponents<'a> -> Rev<StrComponents<'a>>
* RevItems<'a, T> -> Rev<Items<'a, T>>
* etc.
The reasoning behind this change is that it makes the standard API much simpler without reducing readability,
performance, or power. The presence of functions such as rev_iter adds more boilerplate code to libraries
(all of which simply call .iter().rev()), clutters up the documentation, and only helps code by saving two
characters. Additionally, the numerous type synonyms that were used to make the type signatures look nice
like RevItems add even more boilerplate and clutter up the docs even more. With this change, all that cruft
goes away.

This makes the splitting functions in std::slice return DoubleEndedIterators. Unfortunately,
splitn and rsplitn cannot provide such an interface and so must return different types. As a
result, the following changes were made:
* RevSplits was removed in favor of explicitly using Rev
* Splits can no longer bound the number of splits done
* Splits now implements DoubleEndedIterator
* SplitsN was added, taking the role of what both Splits and RevSplits used to be
* rsplit returns Rev<Splits<'a, T>> instead of RevSplits<'a, T>
* splitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of Splits<'a, T>
* rsplitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of RevSplits<'a, T>
All functions that were previously implemented on each return value still are, so outside of changing
of type annotations, existing code should work out of the box. In the rare case that code relied
on the return types of split and splitn or of rsplit and rsplitn being the same, the previous
behavior can be emulated by calling splitn or rsplitn with a bount of uint::MAX.
The value of this change comes in multiple parts:
* Consistency. The splitting code in std::str is structured similarly to the new slice splitting code,
having separate CharSplits and CharSplitsN types.
* Smaller API. Although this commit doesn't implement it, using a DoubleEndedIterator for splitting
means that rsplit, path::RevComponents, path::RevStrComponents, Path::rev_components, and
Path::rev_str_components are no longer needed - they can be emulated simply with .rev().
* Power. DoubleEndedIterators are able to traverse the list from both sides at once instead of only
forwards or backwards.
* Efficiency. For the common case of using split instead of splitn, the iterator is slightly smaller
and slightly faster.

Similar to my recent changes to ~[T]/&[T], these changes remove the vstore abstraction and represent str types as ~(str) and &(str). The Option<uint> in ty_str is the length of the string, None if the string is dynamically sized.

This PR is primarily motivated by (and fixes) #12926.
We currently only have a span for the individual item itself and not for the referred contents. This normally does not cause a problem since both are located in the same file; it *is* possible that the contained statement or item is located in the other file (the syntax extension can do that), but even in that case the syntax extension should be located in the same file as the item. The module item (i.e. `mod foo;`) is the only exception here, and thus warrants a special treatment.
Rustdoc would now distinguish `mod foo;` from `mod foo {...}` by checking if the span for the module item and module contents is in different files. If it's the case, we'd prefer module contents over module item. There are alternative strategies, but as noted above we will have some corner cases if we don't record the contents span explicitly.

As of cc6ec8df, the Owned closures example uses println! instead of
debug!, making a note about seeing debug seem out-of-place in this
section.
Since debug! is not used elsewhere in the tutorial, remove the note
entirely.
Hello,
With the latest version of Rust, calling to the function [`std::io::standard_error()`](http://static.rust-lang.org/doc/master/std/io/fn.standard_error.html) succeeds only if the value of the argument is `EndOfFile`, `IoUnavailable` or `InvalidInput`. If the function is called with another value as argument, it fails without message.
Here is a piece of code that reproduces the problem:
```rust
use std::io::{standard_error,EndOfFile,FileNotFound,PermissionDenied};
fn main() {
println!("Error 1: {}", standard_error(EndOfFile)); // does not fail
println!("Error 2: {}", standard_error(FileNotFound)); // fails
println!("Error 3: {}", standard_error(PermissionDenied)); //fails
}
```
This was because the `IoErrorKind` passed as argument wasn't matched against all the possible values.
I added the missing branches in the `match` statement inside the function, and i removed the call to the `fail!()` macro. I rebuilt the crate with the latest `rustc` version and it seems to works.
As of cc6ec8df, the Owned closures example uses println! instead of
debug!, making a note about seeing debug seem out-of-place in this
section.

Just modified the documentation for parse_bytes to make it more clear how the bytes were parsed (big endian) and to show an example of what it returned. I also added documentation for the to_str_bytes which previously had no documentation (besides one stackoverflow post).
the basic strategy is to distinguish `mod foo;` from `mod foo {...}`
by checking if the span for the module item and module contents is
in different files. if it's the case, we prefer module contents.
it is technically possible to fix#12926 without changing the AST,
probably by checking the individual items' span. this is not without
a problem though, since it is possible that some items inside
`mod foo {...}` may have originated from other file (e.g. `include!`).
therefore it is better to record both spans explicitly.
I filed bugs #13734 and #13759 recently, and then realized I could probably fix them myself. This does exactly that, with a couple additional modifications and additions to the test-suite to pick up on that.
I've never done this before, so please feel free to tell me all the things I'm doing wrong or could be doing better.
this is useful when the module item and module contents are defined
from different files (like rustdoc). in most cases the original span
for the module item would be used; in other cases, the span for
module contents is available separately at the `inner` field.
