Alex Crichton 18607149fb syntax: Add a new unstable #[linked_from] attribute
To correctly reexport statically included libraries from a DLL on Windows, the
compiler will soon need to have knowledge about what symbols are statically
included and which are not. To solve this problem a new unstable
`#[linked_from]` attribute is being added and recognized on `extern` blocks to
indicate which native library the symbols are coming from.

The compiler then keeps track of what the set of FFI symbols are that are
included statically. This information will be used in a future commit to
configure how we invoke the linker on Windows.

Rust documentations

Dependencies

Pandoc, a universal document converter, is required to generate docs as HTML from Rust's source code.

Building

To generate all the docs, just run make docs from the root of the repository. This will convert the distributed Markdown docs to HTML and generate HTML doc for the 'std' and 'extra' libraries.

To generate HTML documentation from one source file/crate, do something like:

rustdoc --output html-doc/ --output-format html ../src/libstd/path.rs

(This, of course, requires a working build of the rustdoc tool.)

Additional notes

To generate an HTML version of a doc from Markdown manually, you can do something like:

pandoc --from=markdown --to=html5 --number-sections -o reference.html reference.md

(reference.md being the Rust Reference Manual.)

The syntax for pandoc flavored markdown can be found at:

A nice quick reference (for non-pandoc markdown) is at:
