This commit moves reflection (as well as the {:?} format modifier) to a new
libdebug crate, all of which is marked experimental.
This is a breaking change because it now requires the debug crate to be
explicitly linked if the :? format qualifier is used. This means that any code
using this feature will have to add `extern crate debug;` to the top of the
crate. Any code relying on reflection will also need to do this.

messages when the pattern is refutable.
This means the compiler points directly to the pattern and said that the
problem is the pattern being refutable (rather than just saying that
some value isn't covered in the `match` as it did previously).
Fixes#14390.
All of these features have been obsolete since February 2014, where most have
been obsolete since 2013. There shouldn't be any more need to keep around the
parser hacks after this length of time.
One of the long-term goals of the libstd facade is to move the collections
library underneath the standard library. This would imply that libcollections
today would invert its dependency with libstd.
One of the primary blockers for doing this is the HashMap collection. Of its two
major dependencies, hashing and randomness, this commit is the first step in
dealing with hashing.
When moving the hash module beneath libstd, it must break its primary dependence
on the io::Writer trait (used as the hashing state). The proposed strategy for
breaking this dependence is taking a similar path as core::fmt, which is to have
the hash module define its own "writer trait". This trait would be similar to
std::io::Writer, except that it would not return errors and it would have fewer
convenience methods.
The Hash trait today has its type parameter behind a feature gate (default type
parameters), so this pending change will likely break no code which hasn't opted
in to the feature gate. The SipState struct will lose its implementation of
io::Writer, but it will regain similar methods for dealing with writing data.
This change specifically prepares for the hash migration by modifying
deriving(Hash) to use the std:#️⃣:Writer bound instead of the std::io::Writer
bound. This bound is currently wired to std::io::Writer, but after a snapshot it
will have no need to be wired to the io writer trait.

This is an implementation of RFC 16. A module can now only be loaded if the
module declaring `mod name;` "owns" the current directory. A module is
considered as owning its directory if it meets one of the following criteria:
* It is the top-level crate file
* It is a `mod.rs` file
* It was loaded via `#[path]`
* It was loaded via `include!`
* The module was declared via an inline `mod foo { ... }` statement
For example, this directory structure is now invalid
// lib.rs
mod foo;
// foo.rs
mod bar;
// bar.rs;
fn bar() {}
With this change `foo.rs` must be renamed to `foo/mod.rs`, and `bar.rs` must be
renamed to `foo/bar.rs`. This makes it clear that `bar` is a submodule of `foo`,
and can only be accessed through `foo`.

Fix#13732.
This is a revised, much less hacky form of PR #13753
The changes here:
* add instrumentation to aid debugging of linkage errors,
* fine tune some things in the Makefile where we are telling binaries to use a host-oriented path for finding dynamic libraries, when it should be feeding the binaries a target-oriented path for dynamic libraries.
* pass along the current stage number to run-make tests, and
* skip certain tests when running atop stage1.
Fix#13746 as well.
Change `bytes!()` to return
{
static BYTES: &'static [u8] = &[...];
BYTES
}
This gives it the `'static` lifetime, whereas before it had an rvalue
lifetime. Until recently this would have prevented assigning `bytes!()`
to a static, as in
static FOO: &'static [u8] = bytes!(1,2,3);
but #14183 fixed it so blocks are now allowed in constant expressions
(with restrictions).

Currently, the format_args!() macro takes as its first argument an expression
which is the callee of an ExprCall. This means that if format_args!() is used
with calling a method a closure must be used. Consider this code, however:
format_args!(|args| { foo.writer.write_fmt(args) }, "{}", foo.field)
The closure borrows the entire `foo` structure, disallowing the later borrow of
`foo.field`. To preserve the semantics of the `write!` macro, it is also
impossible to borrow specifically the `writer` field of the `foo` structure
because it must be borrowed mutably, but the `foo` structure is not guaranteed
to be mutable itself.
This new macro is invoked like:
format_args_method!(foo.writer, write_fmt, "{}", foo.field)
This macro will generate an ExprMethodCall which allows the borrow checker to
understand that `writer` and `field` should be borrowed separately.
This macro is not strictly necessary, with DST or possibly UFCS other
workarounds could be used. For now, though, it looks like this is required to
implement the `write!` macro.
Now that the #[deriving] attribute is removed, the raw_pointers_deriving lint
was broken. This commit restores the lint by preserving lint attributes
across #[deriving] to the implementations and using #[automatically_derived] as
the trigger for activating the lint.
* Added `// no-pretty-expanded` to pretty-print a test, but not run it through
the `expanded` variant.
* Removed #[deriving] and other expanded attributes after they are expanded
* Removed hacks around &str and &&str and friends (from both the parser and the
pretty printer).
* Un-ignored a bunch of tests
This commit revisits the `cast` module in libcore and libstd, and scrutinizes
all functions inside of it. The result was to remove the `cast` module entirely,
folding all functionality into the `mem` module. Specifically, this is the fate
of each function in the `cast` module.
* transmute - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is now marked as
#[unstable]. This is due to planned changes to the `transmute`
function and how it can be invoked (see the #[unstable] comment).
For more information, see RFC 5 and #12898
* transmute_copy - This function was moved to `mem`, with clarification that is
is not an error to invoke it with T/U that are different
sizes, but rather that it is strongly discouraged. This
function is now #[stable]
* forget - This function was moved to `mem` and marked #[stable]
* bump_box_refcount - This function was removed due to the deprecation of
managed boxes as well as its questionable utility.
* transmute_mut - This function was previously deprecated, and removed as part
of this commit.
* transmute_mut_unsafe - This function doesn't serve much of a purpose when it
can be achieved with an `as` in safe code, so it was
removed.
* transmute_lifetime - This function was removed because it is likely a strong
indication that code is incorrect in the first place.
* transmute_mut_lifetime - This function was removed for the same reasons as
`transmute_lifetime`
* copy_lifetime - This function was moved to `mem`, but it is marked
`#[unstable]` now due to the likelihood of being removed in
the future if it is found to not be very useful.
* copy_mut_lifetime - This function was also moved to `mem`, but had the same
treatment as `copy_lifetime`.
* copy_lifetime_vec - This function was removed because it is not used today,
and its existence is not necessary with DST
(copy_lifetime will suffice).
In summary, the cast module was stripped down to these functions, and then the
functions were moved to the `mem` module.

This code does not belong in libstd, and rather belongs in a dedicated crate. In
the future, the syntax::ext::format module should move to the fmt_macros crate
(hence the name of the crate), but for now the fmt_macros crate will only
contain the format string parser.
The entire fmt_macros crate is marked #[experimental] because it is not meant
for general consumption, only the format!() interface is officially supported,
not the internals.
This is a breaking change for anyone using the internals of std::fmt::parse.
Some of the flags have moved to std::fmt::rt, while the actual parsing support
has all moved to the fmt_macros library.

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).

for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

Commits for details.
This shouldn't change the generated code at all (except for switching to `LitBinary` from an explicit ExprVec of individual ExprLit bytes for `prefix_bytes`).
Clearly storing them as `char` is semantically nicer, but this also
fixes a bug whereby `quote_expr!(cx, 'a')` wasn't working, because the
code created by quotation was not matching the actual AST definitions.
This PR is primarily motivated by (and fixes) #12926.
We currently only have a span for the individual item itself and not for the referred contents. This normally does not cause a problem since both are located in the same file; it *is* possible that the contained statement or item is located in the other file (the syntax extension can do that), but even in that case the syntax extension should be located in the same file as the item. The module item (i.e. `mod foo;`) is the only exception here, and thus warrants a special treatment.
Rustdoc would now distinguish `mod foo;` from `mod foo {...}` by checking if the span for the module item and module contents is in different files. If it's the case, we'd prefer module contents over module item. There are alternative strategies, but as noted above we will have some corner cases if we don't record the contents span explicitly.
this is useful when the module item and module contents are defined
from different files (like rustdoc). in most cases the original span
for the module item would be used; in other cases, the span for
module contents is available separately at the `inner` field.
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 commit cleans them up altogether.
Specifically, the method parameter cardinality mismatch or missing
method error message span now gets method itself exactly. It was the
whole expression.

This patch removes the special auto-rooting for `@` from the borrow checker. With `@` moving into a library, it doesn't make sense to keep this code around anymore. It also simplifies `trans` by removing root checking from there
