type they provide an implementation for.
This breaks code like:
mod foo {
struct Foo { ... }
}
impl foo::Foo {
...
}
Change this code to:
mod foo {
struct Foo { ... }
impl Foo {
...
}
}
Additionally, if you used the I/O path extension methods `stat`,
`lstat`, `exists`, `is_file`, or `is_dir`, note that these methods have
been moved to the the `std::io::fs::PathExtensions` trait. This breaks
code like:
fn is_it_there() -> bool {
Path::new("/foo/bar/baz").exists()
}
Change this code to:
use std::io::fs::PathExtensions;
fn is_it_there() -> bool {
Path::new("/foo/bar/baz").exists()
}

The other extension types already worked this way and it can be useful to track some state along with the extension.
I also removed the `BasicMacroExpander` and `BasicIdentMacroExpander` since the span inside of them was never used. The expander function types now directly implement the relevant trait.
The string slices returned by `get_ref` can actually be
invalidated by calling `clear`. Since this method is unused,
it is easiest to simply remove it.

This PR creates a new lint : ``unused_extern_crate``, which do pretty much the same thing as ``unused_import``, but for ``extern crate`` statements. It is related to feature request #10385.
I adapted the code tracking used imports so that it tracks extern crates usage as well. This was mainly trial and error and while I believe all cases are covered, there might be some code I added that is useless (long compile times didn't give me the opportunity to check this in detail).
Also, I removed some unused ``extern crate`` statements from the libs, that where spotted by this new lint.
Few visitors used the context passing feature and it can be easily emulated.
The added lifetime threading allows a visitor to keep safe references to AST
nodes it visits, making a non-owning ast_map design possible, for #13316.
`Box<[T]>` is created by allocating `Box<[T, ..n]>` and coercing it so
this code path is never used. It's also broken because it clamps the
capacity of the memory allocations to 4 elements and that's incompatible
with sized deallocation. This dates back to when `~[T]` was a growable
vector type implemented as:
*{ { tydesc, ref_count, prev, next }, { length, capacity, data[] } }
Since even empty vectors had to allocate, it started off the capacity of
all vectors at 4 as a heuristic. It's not possible to grow `Box<[T]>`
and there is no need for a memory allocation when it's empty, so it
would be a terrible heuristic today even if it worked.
When checking for an existing crate, compare against the
`crate_metadata::name` field, which is the crate name which
was requested during resolution, rather than the result of the
`crate_metadata::name()` method, which is the crate name within
the crate metadata, as these may not match when using the --extern
option to `rustc`.
This fixes spurious "multiple crate version" warnings under the
following scenario:
- The crate `foo`, is referenced multiple times
- `--extern foo=./path/to/libbar.rlib` is specified to rustc
- The internal crate name of `libbar.rlib` is not `foo`
The behavior surrounding `Context::should_match_name` and the
comments in `loader.rs` both lead me to believe that this scenario
is intended to work.

The Guide isn't 100% perfect, but it's basically complete. It's
certainly better than the tutorial is. Time to start pointing more
people its way.
I also just made it consistent to call all things 'guides' rather than
tutorials.
Fixes#9874. This is the big one.
And two bugs that just go away.

Avoid ever constructing cyclic types in the first place, rather than detecting them in resolve. This simplifies logic elsewhere in the compiler, in particular on the trait reform branch.

Bugs in pdflatex (#12804) are preventing the guide from landing (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/16657). This solves the immediate problem by changing the build system to prefer lualatex, xelatex to pdflatex (which is apparently obsolete). Because the xelatex on the snapshot bot seems to completely ignore the `-output-directory` option, I also had to frob the makefiles a bit for that case.
