This commit updates the version number to 1.17.0 as we're not on that version of
the nightly compiler, and at the same time this updates src/stage0.txt to
bootstrap from freshly minted beta compiler and beta Cargo.
Forward more ExactSizeIterator methods and `is_empty` edits
- Forward ExactSizeIterator methods in more places, like `&mut I` and `Box<I>` iterator impls.
- Improve `VecDeque::is_empty` itself (see commit 4)
- All the collections iterators now have `len` or `is_empty` forwarded if doing so is a benefit. In the remaining cases, they already use a simple size hint (using something like a stored `usize` value), which is sufficient for the default implementation of len and is_empty.
It is an unnecessary restriction; nth neither needs self to be sized
nor needs to be exempted from the trait object.
It increases the utility of the nth method, because type specific
implementations are available through `&mut I` or through an iterator
trait object.
It is a backwards compatible change due to the special cases of the
`where Self: Sized` bound; it was already optional to include this bound
in `Iterator` implementations.
This allows printing pointers to unsized types with the {:p} formatting
directive. The following impls are extended to unsized types:
- impl<'a, T: ?Sized> Pointer for &'a T
- impl<'a, T: ?Sized> Pointer for &'a mut T
- impl<T: ?Sized> Pointer for *const T
- impl<T: ?Sized> Pointer for *mut T
- impl<T: ?Sized> fmt::Pointer for Box<T>
- impl<T: ?Sized> fmt::Pointer for Rc<T>
- impl<T: ?Sized> fmt::Pointer for Arc<T>
This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below
Stabilized APIs
* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
`char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
`try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
standard library now.
* The `#![no_std]` attribute
* `fs::DirBuilder`
* `fs::DirBuilder::new`
* `fs::DirBuilder::recursive`
* `fs::DirBuilder::create`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt::mode`
* `vec::Drain`
* `vec::Vec::drain`
* `string::Drain`
* `string::String::drain`
* `vec_deque::Drain`
* `vec_deque::VecDeque::drain`
* `collections::hash_map::Drain`
* `collections::hash_map::HashMap::drain`
* `collections::hash_set::Drain`
* `collections::hash_set::HashSet::drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::Drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::BinaryHeap::drain`
* `Vec::extend_from_slice` (renamed from `push_all`)
* `Mutex::get_mut`
* `Mutex::into_inner`
* `RwLock::get_mut`
* `RwLock::into_inner`
* `Iterator::min_by_key` (renamed from `min_by`)
* `Iterator::max_by_key` (renamed from `max_by`)
Deprecated APIs
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEOF` (renamed to `UnexpectedEof`)
* `OsString::from_bytes`
* `OsStr::to_cstring`
* `OsStr::to_bytes`
* `fs::walk_dir` and `fs::WalkDir`
* `path::Components::peek`
* `slice::bytes::MutableByteVector`
* `slice::bytes::copy_memory`
* `Vec::push_all` (renamed to `extend_from_slice`)
* `Duration::span`
* `IpAddr`
* `SocketAddr::ip`
* `Read::tee`
* `io::Tee`
* `Write::broadcast`
* `io::Broadcast`
* `Iterator::min_by` (renamed to `min_by_key`)
* `Iterator::max_by` (renamed to `max_by_key`)
* `net::lookup_addr`
New APIs (still unstable)
* `<[T]>::sort_by_key` (added to mirror `min_by_key`)

Sometimes when writing generic code you want to abstract over
owning/pointer type so that calling code isn't restricted by one
concrete owning/pointer type. This commit makes possible such code:
```rust
fn i_will_work_with_arc<T: Into<Arc<MyTy>>>(t: T) {
let the_arc = t.into();
// Do something
}
i_will_work_with_arc(MyTy::new());
i_will_work_with_arc(Box::new(MyTy::new()));
let arc_that_i_already_have = Arc::new(MyTy::new());
i_will_work_with_arc(arc_that_i_already_have);
```
Please note that this patch doesn't work with DSTs.
Also to mention, I made those impls stable, and I don't know whether they should be actually stable from the beginning. Please tell me if this should be feature-gated.

These common traits were left off originally by accident from these smart
pointers, and a past attempt (#26008) to add them was later reverted (#26160)
due to unexpected breakge (#26096) occurring. The specific breakage in worry is
the meaning of this return value changed:
let a: Box<Option<T>> = ...;
a.as_ref()
Currently this returns `Option<&T>` but after this change it will return
`&Option<T>` because the `AsRef::as_ref` method shares the same name as
`Option::as_ref`. A [crater report][crater] of this change, however, has shown
that the fallout of this change is quite minimal. These trait implementations
are "the right impls to add" to these smart pointers and would enable various
generalizations such as those in #27197.
[crater]: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/0ba4c3512b07641c0f99
This commit is a breaking change for the above reasons mentioned, and the
mitigation strategies look like any of:
Option::as_ref(&a)
a.as_ref().as_ref()
(*a).as_ref()
This commit removes all unstable and deprecated functions in the standard
library. A release was recently cut (1.3) which makes this a good time for some
spring cleaning of the deprecated functions.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1184][rfc] which tweaks the behavior of
the `#![no_std]` attribute and adds a new `#![no_core]` attribute. The
`#![no_std]` attribute now injects `extern crate core` at the top of the crate
as well as the libcore prelude into all modules (in the same manner as the
standard library's prelude). The `#![no_core]` attribute disables both std and
core injection.

This is a minor [breaking-change], as it changes what
`boxed_str.to_owned()` does (previously it would deref to `&str` and
call `to_owned` on that to get a `String`). However `Box<str>` is such an
exceptionally rare type that this is not expected to be a serious
concern. Also a `Box<str>` can be freely converted to a `String` to
obtain the previous result anyway.
