`TyCtxt::short_string` ensures that user visible type paths aren't overwhelming on the terminal output, and properly saves the long name to disk as a side-channel. We already use these throughout the compiler and have been using them as needed when users find cases where the output is verbose. This is a proactive search of some cases to use `short_string`.
We add support for shortening the path of "trait path only".
Every manual use of `short_string` is a bright marker that that error should be using structured diagnostics instead (as they have proper handling of long types without the maintainer having to think abou tthem).
When we don't actually print out a shortened type we don't need the "use `--verbose`" note.
On E0599 show type identity to avoid expanding the receiver's generic parameters.
Unify wording on `long_ty_path` everywhere.
Improve diagnostics for usage of qualified paths within tuple struct exprs/pats
For patterns the old diagnostic was just incorrect, but I also added machine applicable suggestions.
For context, this special cases errors for `<T as Trait>::Assoc(..)` patterns and expressions (latter is just a call). Tuple struct patterns and expressions both live in the value namespace, so they are not forwarded through associated *types*.
r? ``@jdonszelmann``
cc ``@petrochenkov`` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80080#issuecomment-800630582 you were wondering why it doesn't work for types, that's why — tuple patterns are resolved in the value namespace.
Stabilize `cfg_boolean_literals`
Closes#131204
`@rustbot` labels +T-lang +I-lang-nominated
This will end up conflicting with the test in #138293 so whichever doesn't land first will need updating

# Stabilization Report
## General design
### What is the RFC for this feature and what changes have occurred to the user-facing design since the RFC was finalized?
[RFC 3695](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3695), none.
### What behavior are we committing to that has been controversial? Summarize the major arguments pro/con.
None
### Are there extensions to this feature that remain unstable? How do we know that we are not accidentally committing to those?
None
## Has a call-for-testing period been conducted? If so, what feedback was received?
Yes; only positive feedback was received.
## Implementation quality
### Summarize the major parts of the implementation and provide links into the code (or to PRs)
Implemented in [#131034](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/131034).
### Summarize existing test coverage of this feature
- [Basic usage, including `#[cfg()]`, `cfg!()` and `#[cfg_attr()]`](6d71251cf9/tests/ui/cfg/true-false.rs)
- [`--cfg=true/false` on the command line being accessible via `r#true/r#false`](6d71251cf9/tests/ui/cfg/raw-true-false.rs)
- [Interaction with the unstable `#[doc(cfg(..))]` feature](6d71251/tests/rustdoc-ui/cfg-boolean-literal.rs)
- [Denying `--check-cfg=cfg(true/false)`](6d71251/tests/ui/check-cfg/invalid-arguments.rs)
- Ensuring `--cfg false` on the command line doesn't change the meaning of `cfg(false)`: `tests/ui/cfg/cmdline-false.rs`
- Ensuring both `cfg(true)` and `cfg(false)` on the same item result in it being disabled: `tests/ui/cfg/both-true-false.rs`
### What outstanding bugs in the issue tracker involve this feature? Are they stabilization-blocking?
The above mentioned issue; it should not block as it interacts with another unstable feature.
### What FIXMEs are still in the code for that feature and why is it ok to leave them there?
None
### Summarize contributors to the feature by name for recognition and assuredness that people involved in the feature agree with stabilization
- `@clubby789` (RFC)
- `@Urgau` (Implementation in rustc)
### Which tools need to be adjusted to support this feature. Has this work been done?
`rustdoc`'s unstable`#[doc(cfg(..)]` has been updated to respect it. `cargo` has been updated with a forward compatibility lint to enable supporting it in cargo once stabilized.
## Type system and execution rules
### What updates are needed to the reference/specification? (link to PRs when they exist)
A few lines to be added to the reference for configuration predicates, specified in the RFC.
```
error[E0432]: unresolved import `some_novel_crate`
--> file.rs:1:5
|
1 | use some_novel_crate::Type;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ use of unresolved module or unlinked crate `some_novel_crate`
```
On resolve errors where there might be a missing crate, mention `cargo add foo`:
```
error[E0433]: failed to resolve: use of unresolved module or unlinked crate `nope`
--> $DIR/conflicting-impl-with-err.rs:4:11
|
LL | impl From<nope::Thing> for Error {
| ^^^^ use of unresolved module or unlinked crate `nope`
|
= help: if you wanted to use a crate named `nope`, use `cargo add nope` to add it to your `Cargo.toml`
```
Accurately refer to assoc fn without receiver as assoc fn instead of methods.
Add `AssocItem::descr` method to centralize where we call methods and associated functions.
delegation: Implement glob delegation
Support delegating to all trait methods in one go.
Overriding globs with explicit definitions is also supported.
The implementation is generally based on the design from https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3530#issuecomment-2020869823, but unlike with list delegation in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123413 we cannot expand glob delegation eagerly.
We have to enqueue it into the queue of unexpanded macros (most other macros are processed this way too), and then a glob delegation waits in that queue until its trait path is resolved, and enough code expands to generate the identifier list produced from the glob.
Glob delegation is only allowed in impls, and can only point to traits.
Supporting it in other places gives very little practical benefit, but significantly raises the implementation complexity.
Part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/118212.
delegation: Fix hygiene for `self`
And fix diagnostics for `self` from a macro.
The missing rib caused `self` to be treated as a generic parameter and ignore `macro_rules` hygiene.
Addresses this comment https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/124135#discussion_r1637492234.
Also allow `impl Trait` in delegated functions.
The delegation item will refer to the original opaque type from the callee, fresh opaque type won't be created.
Delegation: fix ICE on wrong `self` resolution
fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/122874
Delegation item should be wrapped in a `rib` to behave like a regular function during name resolution.
