Because it's almost always static.
This makes `impl IntoDiagnosticArg for DiagnosticArgValue` trivial,
which is nice.
There are a few diagnostics constructed in
`compiler/rustc_mir_build/src/check_unsafety.rs` and
`compiler/rustc_mir_transform/src/errors.rs` that now need symbols
converted to `String` with `to_string` instead of `&str` with `as_str`,
but that' no big deal, and worth it for the simplifications elsewhere.
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.
`Diagnostic::code` has the type `DiagnosticId`, which has `Error` and
`Lint` variants. Plus `Diagnostic::is_lint` is a bool, which should be
redundant w.r.t. `Diagnostic::code`.
Seems simple. Except it's possible for a lint to have an error code, in
which case its `code` field is recorded as `Error`, and `is_lint` is
required to indicate that it's a lint. This is what happens with
`derive(LintDiagnostic)` lints. Which means those lints don't have a
lint name or a `has_future_breakage` field because those are stored in
the `DiagnosticId::Lint`.
It's all a bit messy and confused and seems unintentional.
This commit:
- removes `DiagnosticId`;
- changes `Diagnostic::code` to `Option<String>`, which means both
errors and lints can straightforwardly have an error code;
- changes `Diagnostic::is_lint` to `Option<IsLint>`, where `IsLint` is a
new type containing a lint name and a `has_future_breakage` bool, so
all lints can have those, error code or not.
Currently it's used for two dynamic checks:
- When a diagnostic is emitted, has it been emitted before?
- When a diagnostic is dropped, has it been emitted/cancelled?
The first check is no longer need, because `emit` is consuming, so it's
impossible to emit a `DiagnosticBuilder` twice. The second check is
still needed.
This commit replaces `DiagnosticBuilderState` with a simpler
`Option<Box<Diagnostic>>`, which is enough for the second check:
functions like `emit` and `cancel` can take the `Diagnostic` and then
`drop` can check that the `Diagnostic` was taken.
The `DiagCtxt` reference from `DiagnosticBuilderState` is now stored as
its own field, removing the need for the `dcx` method.
As well as making the code shorter and simpler, the commit removes:
- One (deprecated) `ErrorGuaranteed::unchecked_claim_error_was_emitted`
call.
- Two `FIXME(eddyb)` comments that are no longer relevant.
- The use of a dummy `Diagnostic` in `into_diagnostic`.
Nice!
`Diagnostic` has 40 methods that return `&mut Self` and could be
considered setters. Four of them have a `set_` prefix. This doesn't seem
necessary for a type that implements the builder pattern. This commit
removes the `set_` prefixes on those four methods.
And make all hand-written `IntoDiagnostic` impls generic, by using
`DiagnosticBuilder::new(dcx, level, ...)` instead of e.g.
`dcx.struct_err(...)`.
This means the `create_*` functions are the source of the error level.
This change will let us remove `struct_diagnostic`.
Note: `#[rustc_lint_diagnostics]` is added to `DiagnosticBuilder::new`,
it's necessary to pass diagnostics tests now that it's used in
`into_diagnostic` functions.
It's necessary for `derive(Diagnostic)`, but is best avoided elsewhere
because there are clearer alternatives.
This required adding `Handler::struct_almost_fatal`.
These impls are all needed for just a single `IntoDiagnostic` type, not
a family of them.
Note that `ErrorGuaranteed` is the default type parameter for
`IntoDiagnostic`.
Add MVP suggestion for `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn`
Rebase of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/99827
cc tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/71668
No real changes since the original PR, just migrated the new suggestion to use fluent messages and added a couple more testcases, AFAICT from the discussion there were no outstanding changes requested.
