parameters on impls must now also appear in the trait ref, self type, or some associated type declared on the impl. This ensures that they are constrianed in some way and that the semantics of the trait system are well-defined (always a good thing). There are three major ways to fix this error: 1. Convert the trait to use associated types; most often the type parameters are not constrained because they are in fact outputs of the impl. 2. Move the type parameters to methods. 3. Add an additional type parameter to the self type or trait so that the unused parameter can appear there. In some cases, it is not possible to fix the impl because the trait definition needs to be changed first (and that may be out of your control). In that case, for the time being, you can opt out of these rules by using `#[old_impl_check]` on the impl and adding a `#![feature(old_impl_check)]` to your crate declaration.
The Rust Programming Language
This is a compiler for Rust, including standard libraries, tools and documentation.
Quick Start
- Download a binary installer for your platform.
- Read the guide.
- Enjoy!
Note: Windows users can read the detailed using Rust on Windows notes on the wiki.
Building from Source
-
Make sure you have installed the dependencies:
g++4.7 orclang++3.xpython2.6 or later (but not 3.x)perl5.0 or later- GNU
make3.81 or later curlgit
-
Download and build Rust:
You can either download a tarball or build directly from the repo.
To build from the tarball do:
$ curl -O https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-nightly.tar.gz $ tar -xzf rust-nightly.tar.gz $ cd rust-nightlyOr to build from the repo do:
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/rust.git $ cd rustNow that you have Rust's source code, you can configure and build it:
$ ./configure $ make && make installNote: You may need to use
sudo make installif you do not normally have permission to modify the destination directory. The install locations can be adjusted by passing a--prefixargument toconfigure. Various other options are also supported, pass--helpfor more information on them.When complete,
make installwill place several programs into/usr/local/bin:rustc, the Rust compiler, andrustdoc, the API-documentation tool. -
Read the guide.
-
Enjoy!
Building on Windows
To easily build on windows we can use MSYS2:
-
Grab the latest MSYS2 installer and go through the installer.
-
Now from the MSYS2 terminal we want to install the mingw64 toolchain and the other tools we need.
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain $ pacman -S base-devel -
With that now start
mingw32_shell.batfrom where you installed MSYS2 (i.e.C:\msys). -
From there just navigate to where you have Rust's source code, configure and build it:
$ ./configure $ make && make install
Notes
Since the Rust compiler is written in Rust, it must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version of itself (made in an earlier state of development). As such, source builds require a connection to the Internet, to fetch snapshots, and an OS that can execute the available snapshot binaries.
Snapshot binaries are currently built and tested on several platforms:
- Windows (7, 8, Server 2008 R2), x86 and x86-64 (64-bit support added in Rust 0.12.0)
- Linux (2.6.18 or later, various distributions), x86 and x86-64
- OSX 10.7 (Lion) or greater, x86 and x86-64
You may find that other platforms work, but these are our officially supported build environments that are most likely to work.
Rust currently needs about 1.5 GiB of RAM to build without swapping; if it hits swap, it will take a very long time to build.
There is a lot more documentation in the wiki.
