This commit alters rustdoc to crawl the metadata of upstream libraries in order
to fill in default methods for traits implemented in downstream crates. This,
for example, documents the `insert` function on hash maps.
This is a fairly lossy extraction from the metadata. Documentation and
attributes are lost, but they aren't used anyway. Unfortunately, argument names
are also lost because they are not present in the metadata. Source links are
also lost because the spans are not serialized.
While not perfect, it appears that presenting this documentation through rustdoc
is much better than nothing, so I wanted to land this to allow iteration on it
later on.
Right now, when you look in the "Implementors" section for traits, you only see
implementors within that crate. This commit modifies that section to include
implementors from neighboring crates as well.
For example, the Container trait currently says that it is only implemented by
strings and slices, but it is in fact implemented by nearly all containers.
Implementation-wise, this change generates an "implementors cache" similarly to
the search index where each crate will append implementors to the files. When
the page for a trait is loaded, it will load its specific cache file, rendering
links for all upstream types which implement the trait.
1. Wherever the `buf` field of a `Formatter` was used, the `Formatter` is used
instead.
2. The usage of `write_fmt` is minimized as much as possible, the `write!` macro
is preferred wherever possible.
3. Usage of `fmt::write` is minimized, favoring the `write!` macro instead.
This commit brings the local_data api up to modern rust standards with a few key
improvements:
* The `pop` and `set` methods have been combined into one method, `replace`
* The `get_mut` method has been removed. All interior mutability should be done
through `RefCell`.
* All functionality is now exposed as a method on the keys themselves. Instead
of importing std::local_data, you now use "key.replace()" and "key.get()".
* All closures have been removed in favor of RAII functionality. This means that
get() and get_mut() no long require closures, but rather return
Option<SmartPointer> where the smart pointer takes care of relinquishing the
borrow and also implements the necessary Deref traits
* The modify() function was removed to cut the local_data interface down to its
bare essentials (similarly to how RefCell removed set/get).
[breaking-change]
This commit removes the inherited documentation from type pages. This generally
just clutters up the page when you can click through to the trait itself to get
all the meaty documentation.
Closes#11991
These fonts were moved into place by rust's makefiles, but rustdoc is widely
used outside of rustc itself. This moves the fonts into the rustdoc binary,
similarly to the other static assets, and writes them to the output location
whenever rustdoc generates documentation.

It reflected the obsolete syntax `use a, b, c;` and did not make past the parser (though it was a non-fatal error so we can continue). This legacy affected many portions of rustc and rustdoc as well, so this PR cleans them up altogether.
As a side effect of cleanup, we now have `SCHEMA_VERSION` in `rustdoc::clean` (instead of the crate root), so it has a better chance to be updated when `rustdoc::clean` gets updated.

The fields of tuple structs recently gained the ability to have privacy
associated with them, but rustdoc was not updated accodingly. This moves the
struct field filtering to the rendering phase in order to preserve the ordering
of struct fields to allow tuple structs to have their private fields printed as
underscores.

Since the items roughly follow the lexical order, there are
many consecutive items with the same path value which can be
easily compressed.
For the library and compiler docs, this commit decreases
the index size by 26% and 6% before and after gzip, respectively.
`buildIndex` JS function recovers them into the original object form.
This greatly reduces the size of the uncompressed search index (27%),
while this effect is less visible after gzipped (~5%).
libstd: Implement `StrBuf`, a new string buffer type like `Vec`, and port all code over to use it.

This moves derived impls to the bottom of the list, separate from the rest,
and collapses default methods that aren't overridden into an expandible
accordion.
This needs to be removed as part of removing `~[T]`. Partial type hints
are now allowed, and will remove the need to add a version of this
method for `Vec<T>`. For now, this involves a few workarounds for
partial type hints not completely working.
A major discoverability issue with rustdoc is that all crates have their
documentation built in isolation, so it's difficult when looking at the
documentation for libstd to learn that there's a libcollections crate with a
HashMap in it.
This commit moves rustdoc a little closer to improving the multiple crate
experience. This unifies all search indexes for all crates into one file so all
pages share the same search index. This allows searching to work across crates
in the same documentation directory (as the standard distribution is currently
built).
This strategy involves updating a shared file amongst many rustdoc processes, so
I implemented a simple file locking API for handling synchronization for updates
to the shared files.

The `~str` type is not long for this world as it will be superseded by the
soon-to-come DST changes for the language. The new type will be
`~Str`, and matching over the allocation will no longer be supported.
Matching on `&str` will continue to work, in both a pre and post DST world.
Previously the :hover rules were making the links to the traits/types in
something like
impl<K: Hash + Eq, V> ... { ... }
be displayed with a trailing `§` when hovered over. This commit
restricts that behaviour to specific headers, i.e. those that are known
to be section headers (like those rendered in markdown doc-comments, and
the "Modules", "Functions" etc. headings).
This avoids having to include JS in the guide/tutorial/manual pages just
to get the headers being links. The on-hover behaviour showing the
little section marker § is preserved, because that gives a useful hint
that the heading is a link.
A structure's definition and implementation may be cross-module. If the
implementing module is parsed before defining module, the fully
qualified name of the structure won't be present for the implementation
to use when being indexed. So caches such 'orphan' implementation and
indexes it at the end of crate parsing.
Closes#10284.
This leverages the new hashing framework and hashmap implementation to provide a
much speedier hashing algorithm for node ids and def ids. The hash algorithm
used is currentl FNV hashing, but it's quite easy to swap out.
I originally implemented hashing as the identity function, but this actually
ended up in slowing down rustc compiling libstd from 8s to 13s. I would suspect
that this is a result of a large number of collisions.
With FNV hashing, we get these timings (compiling with --no-trans, in seconds):
| | before | after |
|-----------|---------:|--------:|
| libstd | 8.324 | 6.703 |
| stdtest | 47.674 | 46.857 |
| libsyntax | 9.918 | 8.400 |
This commit adds a appear-on-over link to all section headers to generated
documentation. Each header also receives an id now, even those generated through
markdown. The purpose of this is to provide easy to link to sections.
This modifies the default header markdown generation because the default id
added looks like "toc_NN" which is difficult to reconcile among all sections (by
default each section gets a "toc_0" id), and it's also not very descriptive of
where you're going.
This chooses to adopt the github-style anchors by taking the contents of the
title and hyphen-separating them (after lower casing).
Closes#12681
Macro definitions are just their raw source code, and so should be
highlighted where possible. Also, $ident non-terminal substitutions are
special, and so are worth of a little special treatment.
There's a lot of these types in the compiler libraries, and a few of the
older or private stdlib ones. Some types are obviously meant to be
public, others not so much.
This adds simple syntax highlighting based off libsyntax's lexer to be sure to
stay up to date with rust's grammar. Some of the highlighting is a bit ad-hoc,
but it definitely seems to get the job done!
This currently doesn't highlight rustdoc-rendered function signatures and
structs that are emitted to each page because the colors already signify what's
clickable and I think we'd have to figure out a different scheme before
colorizing them. This does, however, colorize all code examples and source code.
Closes#11393
These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.

This "bubble up an error" macro was originally named if_ok! in order to get it
landed, but after the fact it was discovered that this name is not exactly
desirable.
The name `if_ok!` isn't immediately clear that is has much to do with error
handling, and it doesn't look fantastic in all contexts (if if_ok!(...) {}). In
general, the agreed opinion about `if_ok!` is that is came in as subpar.
The name `try!` is more invocative of error handling, it's shorter by 2 letters,
and it looks fitting in almost all circumstances. One concern about the word
`try!` is that it's too invocative of exceptions, but the belief is that this
will be overcome with documentation and examples.

Any macro tagged with #[macro_export] will be showed in the documentation for
that module. This also documents all the existing macros inside of std::macros.
Closes#3163
cc #5605Closes#9954
The std macros used to be injected with a filename of "<std-macros>", but macros
are now injected with a filename of "<{} macros>" where `{}` is filled in with
the crate name. This updates rustdoc to understand this new system so it'll
render source more frequently.
This patch replaces all `crate` usage with `krate` before introducing the
new keyword. This ensures that after introducing the keyword, there
won't be any compilation errors.
krate might not be the most expressive substitution for crate but it's a
very close abbreviation for it. `module` was already used in several
places already.

Major changes:
- Define temporary scopes in a syntax-based way that basically defaults
to the innermost statement or conditional block, except for in
a `let` initializer, where we default to the innermost block. Rules
are documented in the code, but not in the manual (yet).
See new test run-pass/cleanup-value-scopes.rs for examples.
- Refactors Datum to better define cleanup roles.
- Refactor cleanup scopes to not be tied to basic blocks, permitting
us to have a very large number of scopes (one per AST node).
- Introduce nascent documentation in trans/doc.rs covering datums and
cleanup in a more comprehensive way.
