In principle, it seems like a nice idea to abstract over the two
functions that parse blocks (one with inner attrs allowed, one not).
However, the existing one wound up making things more complex than
just having two separate functions, especially after the obsolete
syntax is (will be) removed.
prec.rs no longer had much to do with precedence; the token->binop
function fits better in token.rs, and the one-liner defining the
precedence of 'as' can go next to the other precedence stuff in
ast_util.rs
Closes#3083.
This takes a similar approach to #5797 where a set is present on the `tcx` of used mutable definitions. Everything is by default warned about, and analyses must explicitly add mutable definitions to this set so they're not warned about.
Most of this was pretty straightforward, although there was one caveat that I ran into when implementing it. Apparently when the old modes are used (or maybe `legacy_modes`, I'm not sure) some different code paths are taken to cause spurious warnings to be issued which shouldn't be issued. I'm not really sure how modes even worked, so I was having a lot of trouble tracking this down. I figured that because they're a legacy thing that I'd just de-mode the compiler so that the warnings wouldn't be a problem anymore (or at least for the compiler).
Other than that, the entire compiler compiles without warnings of unused mutable variables. To prevent bad warnings, #5965 should be landed (which in turn is waiting on #5963) before landing this. I figured I'd stick it out for review anyway though.
bare function store (which is not in fact a kind of value) but rather
ty::TraitRef. Removes many uses of fail!() and other telltale signs of
type-semantic mismatch.
cc #4183 (not a fix, but related)
This naming is free now that `oldmap` has finally been removed, so this is a search-and-replace to take advantage of that. It might as well be called `HashMap` instead of being named after the specific implementation, since there's only one.
SipHash distributes keys so well that I don't think there will ever be much need to use anything but a simple hash table with open addressing. If there *is* a better way to do it, it will probably be better in all cases and can just be the default implementation.
A cuckoo-hashing implementation combining a weaker hash with SipHash could be useful, but that won't be as general purpose - you would need to write a separate fast hash function specialized for the type to really take advantage of it (like taking a page from libstdc++/libc++ and just using the integer value as the "hash"). I think a more specific naming for a truly alternative implementation like that would be fine, with the nice naming reserved for the general purpose container.
Changes the parser to parse all streams into token-trees before hitting the parser proper, in preparation for hygiene. As an added bonus, it appears to speed up the parser (albeit by a totally imperceptible 1%).
Also, many comments in the parser.
Also, field renaming in token-trees (readme->forest, cur->stack).
I believe this patch incorporates all expected syntax changes from extern
function reform (#3678). You can now write things like:
extern "<abi>" fn foo(s: S) -> T { ... }
extern "<abi>" mod { ... }
extern "<abi>" fn(S) -> T
The ABI for foreign functions is taken from this syntax (rather than from an
annotation). We support the full ABI specification I described on the mailing
list. The correct ABI is chosen based on the target architecture.
Calls by pointer to C functions are not yet supported, and the Rust type of
crust fns is still *u8.
Before it wouldn't warn about unused imports in the list if something in the list was used. These commits fix that case, add a test, and remove all unused imports in lists of imports throughout the compiler.
Hey folks,
This patch series does some work on the json decoder, specifically with auto decoding of enums. Previously, we would take this code:
```
enum A {
B,
C(~str, uint)
}
```
and would encode a value of this enum to either `["B", []]` or `["C", ["D", 123]]`. I've changed this to `"B"` or `["C", "D", 123]`. This matches the style of the O'Caml json library [json-wheel](http://mjambon.com/json-wheel.html). I've added tests to make sure all this work.
In order to make this change, I added passing a `&[&str]` vec to `Decode::emit_enum_variant` so the json decoder can convert the name of a variant into it's position. I also changed the impl of `Encodable` for `Option<T>` to have the right upper casing.
I also did some work on the parser, which allows for `fn foo<T: ::cmp::Eq>() { ... }` statements (#5572), fixed the pretty printer properly expanding `debug!("...")` expressions, and removed `ast::expr_vstore_fixed`, which doesn't appear to be used anymore.
the types. Initially I thought it would be necessary to thread this data
through not only the AST but the types themselves, but then I remembered that
the pretty printer only cares about the AST. Regardless, I have elected to
leave the changes to the types intact since they will eventually be needed. I
left a few FIXMEs where it didn't seem worth finishing up since the code wasn't
crucial yet.
Removes a lot of instances of `/*bad*/ copy` throughout libsyntax/librustc. On the plus side, this shaves about 2s off of the runtime when compiling `librustc` with optimizations.
Ideally I would have run a profiler to figure out which copies are the most critical to remove, but in reality there was a liberal amount of `git grep`s along with some spot checking and removing the easy ones.
For bootstrapping purposes, this commit does not remove all uses of
the keyword "pure" -- doing so would cause the compiler to no longer
bootstrap due to some syntax extensions ("deriving" in particular).
Instead, it makes the compiler ignore "pure". Post-snapshot, we can
remove "pure" from the language.
There are quite a few (~100) borrow check errors that were essentially
all the result of mutable fields or partial borrows of `@mut`. Per
discussions with Niko I think we want to allow partial borrows of
`@mut` but detect obvious footguns. We should also improve the error
message when `@mut` is erroneously reborrowed.

This removes `log` from the language. Because we can't quite implement it as a syntax extension (probably need globals at the least) it simply renames the keyword to `__log` and hides it behind macros.
After this the only way to log is with `debug!`, `info!`, etc. I figure that if there is demand for `log!` we can add it back later.
I am not sure that we ever agreed on this course of action, though I *think* there is consensus that `log` shouldn't be a statement.
After the removal of the "restricted keyword" feature in 0c82c00dc4 , there's no longer any difference between parse_ident() and parse_value_ident(), and therefore no difference between parse parse_path_without_tps() and parse_value_path(). I've collapsed all of these, removing the redundant functions and eliminating the need for two higher-order arguments.
This removes all but 6 uses of `drop {}` from the entire codebase. Removing any of the remaining uses causes various non-trivial bugs; I'll start reporting them once this gets merged.
Major changes are:
- replace ~[ty_param] with Generics structure, which includes
both OptVec<TyParam> and OptVec<Lifetime>;
- the use of syntax::opt_vec to avoid allocation for empty lists;

It appears that using deriving_eq/auto_encode on ASTs bumps up against the "gee this looks like infinite unfolding" limit of 10 in monomorphization. Increasing it to 30 seems to solve this problem for me....
Also, commenting and a few renames.
This patch series is doing a couple things with the ultimate goal of removing `#[allow(vecs_implicitly_copyable)]`, although I'm not quite there yet. The main change is passing around `@~str`s in most places, and using `ref`s in others. As far as I could tell, there are no performance changes with these patches, and all the tests pass on my mac.
r? @graydon - This is for greater uniformity (for example, macros that generate
tuples). rustc already supported 1-tuple patterns, but there was no
way to construct a 1-tuple term.
@graydon , as far as your comment on #4898 - it did turn out to be solvable inside the macro (since @luqmana already fixed it using structs instead), but I still think it's a good idea to allow 1-tuples, for uniformity. I don't think anyone is likely to trip over it, and I'm not too worried that it changes the amount of ambiguity.

Apply deriving_eq to the data structures in ast.rs, and get rid of the custom definitions of eq that were everywhere. resulting ast.rs is about 400 lines shorter.
Also: add a few test cases and a bunch of comments.
Also: change ast_ty_to_ty_cache to use node ids rather than ast::ty's. I believe this was a suggestion related to my changes, and it appears to pass all tests.
Also: tiny doc fix, remove references to crate keywords.
LinearMap is quite a bit faster, and is fully owned/sendable without
requiring copies. The older std::map also doesn't use explicit self and
relies on mutable fields.
