If a symbol name can only be imported from one place for a type, and
as long as it was not glob-imported anywhere in the current crate, we
can trim its printed path and print only the name.
This has wide implications on error messages with types, for example,
shortening `std::vec::Vec` to just `Vec`, as long as there is no other
`Vec` importable anywhere.
This adds a new '-Z trim-diagnostic-paths=false' option to control this
feature.
On the good path, with no diagnosis printed, we should try to avoid
issuing this query, so we need to prevent trimmed_def_paths query on
several cases.
This change also relies on a previous commit that differentiates
between `Debug` and `Display` on various rustc types, where the latter
is trimmed and presented to the user and the former is not.
Currently, the def span of a funtion encompasses the entire function
signature and body. However, this is usually unnecessarily verbose - when we are
pointing at an entire function in a diagnostic, we almost always want to
point at the signature. The actual contents of the body tends to be
irrelevant to the diagnostic we are emitting, and just takes up
additional screen space.
This commit changes the `def_span` of all function items (freestanding
functions, `impl`-block methods, and `trait`-block methods) to be the
span of the signature. For example, the function
```rust
pub fn foo<T>(val: T) -> T { val }
```
now has a `def_span` corresponding to `pub fn foo<T>(val: T) -> T`
(everything before the opening curly brace).
Trait methods without a body have a `def_span` which includes the
trailing semicolon. For example:
```rust
trait Foo {
fn bar();
}```
the function definition `Foo::bar` has a `def_span` of `fn bar();`
This makes our diagnostic output much shorter, and emphasizes
information that is relevant to whatever diagnostic we are reporting.
We continue to use the full span (including the body) in a few of
places:
* MIR building uses the full span when building source scopes.
* 'Outlives suggestions' use the full span to sort the diagnostics being
emitted.
* The `#[rustc_on_unimplemented(enclosing_scope="in this scope")]`
attribute points the entire scope body.
* The 'unconditional recursion' lint uses the full span to show
additional context for the recursive call.
All of these cases work only with local items, so we don't need to
add anything extra to crate metadata.
Point at the span for the definition of ADTs internal to the current
crate.
Look at the leading char of the ident to determine whether we're
expecting a likely fn or any of a fn, a tuple struct or a tuple variant.
Turn fn `add_typo_suggestion` into a `Resolver` method.
Increase spacing for suggestions in diagnostics
Make the spacing between the code snippet and verbose structured
suggestions consistent with note and help messages.
r? @Centril
also updated some error messages
removed the code manually checking for `receiver_ty: Deref<Target=self_ty>`, in favour of using autoderef but only doing one iteration. This will cause error messages to be more consistent. Before, a "mismatched method receiver" error would be emitted when `receiver_ty` was valid except for a lifetime parameter, but only when `feature(arbitrary_self_types)` was enabled, and without the feature flag the error would be "uncoercible receiver". Now it emits "mismatched method receiver" in both cases.
It looks like we tend to use angle-brackets around the placeholder in
the few other places we use `Applicability::HasPlaceholders`, but that
would be confusing here, so ...
