Improve error message for uninferrable types #38812
Hello,
I tried to improve the error message for uninferrable types. The error code is `E0282`.
```rust
error[E0282]: type annotations needed
--> /home/cengizIO/issue38812.rs:2:11
|
2 | let x = vec![];
| - ^^^^^^ cannot infer type for `T`
| |
| consider giving `x` a type
|
= note: this error originates in a macro outside of the current crate
```
and
```rust
error[E0282]: type annotations needed
--> /home/cengizIO/issue38812.rs:2:15
|
2 | let (x,) = (vec![],);
| ---- ^^^^^^ cannot infer type for `T`
| |
| consider giving a type to pattern
|
= note: this error originates in a macro outside of the current crate
```
Rust compiler now tries to find uninferred `local`s with type `_` and adds them into the error message.
I'm probably wrong on wording that I used. Please feel free to suggest better alternatives.
Thanks @nikomatsakis for mentoring 🍺
Any comments/feedback is more than welcome!
Thank you
This is the full and proper fix for #32330. This also makes some effort
to give a nice error message (as evidenced by the `ui` test), sending
users over to the tracking issue for a full explanation.
Don't suggest to use things which weren't found either
Fixes#38054
The best code I can come up with, suggestions are welcome.
Basically, removing ```. Did you mean to use `DoesntExist1`?``` in the code below, because it is useless.
```rust
error[E0432]: unresolved import `DoesntExist1`
--> src/lib.rs:1:5
|
1 | use DoesntExist1;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^ no `DoesntExist1` in the root
error[E0432]: unresolved import `DoesntExist2`
--> src/lib.rs:2:5
|
2 | use DoesntExist2;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^ no `DoesntExist2` in the root. Did you mean to use `DoesntExist1`?
```
Expand derive macros in the MacroExpander
This removes the expand_derives function, and sprinkles the functionality throughout the Invocation Collector, Expander and Resolver.

Previously, the note/message for the source of a lint being the command
line unconditionally named the individual lint, even if the actual
command specified a lint group (e.g., `-D warnings`); here, we take note
of the actual command options so we can be more specific.
This remains in the matter of #36846.
Warning or error messages set via a lint group attribute
(e.g. `#[deny(warnings)]`) should still make it clear which individual
lint (by name) was triggered, similarly to how we include "on by
default" language for default lints. This—and, while we're here, the
existing "on by default" language—can be tucked into a note rather than
cluttering the main error message. This occasions the slightest of
refactorings (we now have to get the diagnostic-builder with the main
message first, before matching on the lint source).
This is in the matter of #36846.
Add clearer error message using `&str + &str`
This is the first part of #39018. One of the common things for new users
coming from more dynamic languages like JavaScript, Python or Ruby is to
use `+` to concatenate strings. However, this doesn't work that way in
Rust unless the first type is a `String`. This commit adds a check for
this use case and outputs a new error as well as a suggestion to guide
the user towards the desired behavior. It also adds a new test case to
test the output of the error.
Privatize constructors of tuple structs with private fields
This PR implements the strictest version of such "privatization" - it just sets visibilities for struct constructors, this affects everything including imports.
```
visibility(struct_ctor) = min(visibility(struct), visibility(field_1), ..., visibility(field_N))
```
Needs crater run before proceeding.

rustc: Remove all "consider using an explicit lifetime parameter" suggestions
These give so many incorrect suggestions that having them is
detrimental to the user experience. The compiler should not be
suggesting changes to the code that are wrong - it is infuriating: not
only is the compiler telling you that _you don't understand_ borrowing,
_the compiler itself_ appears to not understand borrowing. It does not
inspire confidence.

Point to immutable borrow arguments and fields when trying to use them as
mutable borrows. Add label to primary span on "cannot borrow as mutable"
errors.
Present the following output when trying to access an immutable borrow's
field as mutable:
```

--> $DIR/issue-38147-1.rs:27:9
|
26 | fn f(&self) {
| ----- use `&mut self` here to make mutable
27 | f.s.push('x');
| ^^^ assignment into an immutable reference
```
And the following when trying to access an immutable struct field as mutable:
```
error: cannot borrow immutable borrowed content `*self.s` as mutable
--> $DIR/issue-38147-3.rs:17:9
|
12 | s: &'a String
| ------------- use `&'a mut String` here to make mutable
...|
16 | fn f(&self) {
| ----- use `&mut self` here to make mutable
17 | self.s.push('x');
| ^^^^^^ cannot borrow as mutable
```

```

Fix#37767.
Fix lint attributes on non-item nodes.
Currently, late lint checking uses two HIR visitors: LateContext and
IdVisitor. IdVisitor only overrides visit_id, and for each node searches
for builtin lints previously added to the session; LateContext overrides
a number of methods, and runs late lints. When LateContext encounters an
item, it first has IdVisitor walk everything in it except nested items
(OnlyBodies), then recurses into it itself - i.e. there are two separate
walks.
Aside from apparently being unnecessary, this separation prevents lint
attributes (allow/deny/warn) on non-item HIR nodes from working
properly. Test case:
```rust
// generates warning without this change
fn main() { #[allow(unreachable_code)] loop { break; break; } }
```
LateContext contains logic to merge attributes seen into the current lint
settings while walking (with_lint_attrs), but IdVisitor does not. So
such attributes will affect late lints (because they are called from
LateContext), and if the node contains any items within it, they will
affect builtin lints within those items (because that IdVisitor is run
while LateContext is within the attributed node), but otherwise the
attributes will be ignored for builtin lints.
This change simply removes IdVisitor and moves its visit_id into
LateContext itself. Hopefully this doesn't break anything...
Also added walk calls to visit_lifetime and visit_lifetime_def
respectively, so visit_lifetime_def will recurse into the lifetime and
visit_lifetime will recurse into the name. In principle this could
confuse lint plugins. This is "necessary" because walk_lifetime calls
visit_id on the lifetime; of course, an alternative would be directly
calling visit_id (which would require manually iterating over the
lifetimes in visit_lifetime_def), but that seems less clean.

resolve: Do not use "resolve"/"resolution" in error messages
Use less jargon-y wording instead.
`cannot find <struct> <S> in <this scope>` and `cannot find <struct> <S> in <module a::b>` are used for base messages (this also harmonizes nicely with "you can import it into scope" suggestions) and `not found in <this scope>` and `not found in <a::b>` are used for short labels in fall-back case.
I tweaked some other diagnostics to avoid using "resolve" (see, e.g., `librustc_resolve/macros.rs`), but haven't touched messages for imports.
