Previously we would only mention that the item was gated out, and opportunisitically mention the feature flag name when possible. We now point to the place where the item was gated, which can be behind layers of macro indirection, or in different modules.

Error codes are integers, but `String` is used everywhere to represent
them. Gross!
This commit introduces `ErrCode`, an integral newtype for error codes,
replacing `String`. It also introduces a constant for every error code,
e.g. `E0123`, and removes the `error_code!` macro. The constants are
imported wherever used with `use rustc_errors::codes::*`.
With the old code, we have three different ways to specify an error code
at a use point:
```
error_code!(E0123) // macro call
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // bare ident arg to macro call
\#[diag(name, code = "E0123")] // string
struct Diag;
```
With the new code, they all use the `E0123` constant.
```
E0123 // constant
struct_span_code_err!(dcx, span, E0123, "msg"); // constant
\#[diag(name, code = E0123)] // constant
struct Diag;
```
The commit also changes the structure of the error code definitions:
- `rustc_error_codes` now just defines a higher-order macro listing the
used error codes and nothing else.
- Because that's now the only thing in the `rustc_error_codes` crate, I
moved it into the `lib.rs` file and removed the `error_codes.rs` file.
- `rustc_errors` uses that macro to define everything, e.g. the error
code constants and the `DIAGNOSTIC_TABLES`. This is in its new
`codes.rs` file.
This makes no sense, and has no effect. I suspect it's been confused
with a `code = "{code}"` attribute on a subdiagnostic suggestion, where
it is valid (but the "code" there is suggested source code, rather than
an error code.)
Improve diagnostic for generic params from outer items (E0401)
Generalize the wording of E0401 to talk about *outer items* instead of *outer functions* since the current phrasing is outdated. The outer item can be a function, constant, trait, ADT or impl block (see the new UI test for the more exotic examples).
Further, don't suggest introducing generic parameters to constant items unless the feature `generic_const_items` is enabled.
Lastly, make E0401 translatable while we're at it.
Fixes#115720.
Add translatable diagnostic for cannot be reexported error
also added for subdiagnostics
Add translatable diagnostics for resolve_glob_import errors
Add translatable diag for unable to determine import resolution
Add translatable diag for is not directly importable
`#[cfg]`s are frequently used to gate crate content behind cargo
features. This can lead to very confusing errors when features are
missing. For example, `serde` doesn't have the `derive` feature by
default. Therefore, `serde::Serialize` fails to resolve with a generic
error, even though the macro is present in the docs.
This commit adds a list of all stripped item names to metadata. This is
filled during macro expansion and then, through a fed query, persisted
in metadata. The downstream resolver can then access the metadata to
look at possible candidates for mentioning in the errors.
This slightly increases metadata (800k->809k for the feature-heavy
windows crate), but not enough to really matter.
Add suggestion to remove `derive()` if invoked macro is non-derive
Adds to the existing `expected derive macro, found {}` error message:
```
help: remove the surrounding "derive()":
--> $DIR/macro-path-prelude-fail-4.rs:1:3
|
LL | #[derive(inline)]
| ^^^^^^^ ^
```
This suggestion will either fix the issue, in the case that the macro was valid, or provide a better error message if not
Not ready for merge yet, as the highlighted span is only valid for trivial formatting. Is there a nice way to get the parent span of the macro path within `smart_resolve_macro_path`?
Closes#109589
