Many links in this series have the `[link text]` and `(url)` on separate
lines, which doesn't get correctly interpreted in markdown. Or maybe it
once did, but it doesn't now. This patch joins the lines together.
Fixed wrong link in release notes
The link for the pull request updating hash_map to implement Debug was a copy of the previous link, this changes the link to the correct PR.
Reading this, one item stood out a bit. Small improvements here.
. ‘Compile-time’ is not a noun, ‘compilation time’ was meant;
. Mathematical formulas are best not rendered as code;
. Use the same tense as in other items.
Fix conflicting link identifiers
Caused "Errors for non-exhaustive match patterns now list up to 3 missing variants while also indicating the total number of missing variants if more than 3." to link to "libsyntax: Restrict where non-inline modules can appear (fixes#29765)"
At the moment, it only mentions the fix to parallel codegen.
I was going to add more, but I have to go for a while - If this isn't reviewed when I get back, I'll remove it and resubmit it after filling in more :)
This commit stabilizes the following APIs, slating them all to be cherry-picked
into the 1.1 release.
* fs::FileType (and transitively the derived trait implementations)
* fs::Metadata::file_type
* fs::FileType::is_dir
* fs::FileType::is_file
* fs::FileType::is_symlink
* fs::DirEntry::metadata
* fs::DirEntry::file_type
* fs::DirEntry::file_name
* fs::set_permissions
* fs::symlink_metadata
* os::raw::{self, *}
* os::{android, bitrig, linux, ...}::raw::{self, *}
* os::{android, bitrig, linux, ...}::fs::MetadataExt
* os::{android, bitrig, linux, ...}::fs::MetadataExt::as_raw_stat
* os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt
* os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt::mode
* os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt::set_mode
* os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt::from_mode
* os::unix::fs::OpenOptionsExt
* os::unix::fs::OpenOptionsExt::mode
* os::unix::fs::DirEntryExt
* os::unix::fs::DirEntryExt::ino
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt::file_attributes
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt::creation_time
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt::last_access_time
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt::last_write_time
* os::windows::fs::MetadataExt::file_size
The `os::unix::fs::Metadata` structure was also removed entirely, moving all of
its associated methods into the `os::unix::fs::MetadataExt` trait instead. The
methods are all marked as `#[stable]` still.
As some minor cleanup, some deprecated and unstable fs apis were also removed:
* File::path
* Metadata::accessed
* Metadata::modified
Features that were explicitly left unstable include:
* fs::WalkDir - the semantics of this were not considered in the recent fs
expansion RFC.
* fs::DirBuilder - it's still not 100% clear if the naming is right here and if
the set of functionality exposed is appropriate.
* fs::canonicalize - the implementation on Windows here is specifically in
question as it always returns a verbatim path. Additionally the Unix
implementation is susceptible to buffer overflows on long paths unfortunately.
* fs::PathExt - as this is just a convenience trait, it is not stabilized at
this time.
* fs::set_file_times - this funciton is still waiting on a time abstraction.
This pulls all of our long-form documentation into a single document,
nicknamed "the book" and formally titled "The Rust Programming
Language."
A few things motivated this change:
* People knew of The Guide, but not the individual Guides. This merges
them together, helping discoverability.
* You can get all of Rust's longform documentation in one place, which
is nice.
* We now have rustbook in-tree, which can generate this kind of
documentation. While its style is basic, the general idea is much
better: a table of contents on the left-hand side.
* Rather than a almost 10,000-line guide.md, there are now smaller files
per section.
