- the self type includes some local type; and,
- type parameters in the self type must be constrained by a local type.
A type parameter is called *constrained* if it appears in some type-parameter of a local type.
Here are some examples that are accepted. In all of these examples, I
assume that `Foo` is a trait defined in another crate. If `Foo` were
defined in the local crate, then all the examples would be legal.
- `impl Foo for LocalType`
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType` -- T does not appear in Self, so it is OK
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType<T>` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for (LocalType<T>, T)` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
Here are some illegal examples (again, these examples assume that
`Foo` is not local to the current crate):
- `impl Foo for int` -- the Self type is not local
- `impl<T> Foo for T` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
- `impl<T> Foo for (LocalType, T)` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
This is a [breaking-change]. For the time being, you can opt out of
the new rules by placing `#[old_orphan_check]` on the trait (and
enabling the feature gate where the trait is defined). Longer term,
you should restructure your traits to avoid the problem. Usually this
means changing the order of parameters so that the "central" type
parameter is in the `Self` position.
As an example of that refactoring, consider the `BorrowFrom` trait:
```rust
pub trait BorrowFrom<Sized? Owned> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Owned) -> &Self;
}
```
As defined, this trait is commonly implemented for custom pointer
types, such as `Arc`. Those impls follow the pattern:
```rust
impl<T> BorrowFrom<Arc<T>> for T {...}
```
Unfortunately, this impl is illegal because the self type `T` is not
local to the current crate. Therefore, we are going to change the order of the parameters,
so that `BorrowFrom` becomes `Borrow`:
```rust
pub trait Borrow<Sized? Borrowed> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Self) -> &Borrowed;
}
```
Now the `Arc` impl is written:
```rust
impl<T> Borrow<T> for Arc<T> { ... }
```
This impl is legal because the self type (`Arc<T>`) is local.
Instead of copy-pasting the whole macro_rules! item from the original .rs file,
we serialize a separate name, attributes list, and body, the latter as
pretty-printed TTs. The compilation of macro_rules! macros is decoupled
somewhat from the expansion of macros in item position.
This filters out comments, and facilitates selective imports.
This commit moves the libserialize crate (and will force the hand of the
rustc-serialize crate) to not require the `old_orphan_check` feature gate as
well as using associated types wherever possible. Concretely, the following
changes were made:
* The error type of `Encoder` and `Decoder` is now an associated type, meaning
that these traits have no type parameters.
* The `Encoder` and `Decoder` type parameters on the `Encodable` and `Decodable`
traits have moved to the corresponding method of the trait. This movement
alleviates the dependency on `old_orphan_check` but implies that
implementations can no longer be specialized for the type of encoder/decoder
being implemented.
Due to the trait definitions changing, this is a:

This implements RFC 179 by making the pattern `&<pat>` require matching
against a variable of type `&T`, and introducing the pattern `&mut
<pat>` which only works with variables of type `&mut T`.
The pattern `&mut x` currently parses as `&(mut x)` i.e. a pattern match
through a `&T` or a `&mut T` that binds the variable `x` to have type
`T` and to be mutable. This should be rewritten as follows, for example,
for &mut x in slice.iter() {
becomes
for &x in slice.iter() {
let mut x = x;
Due to this, this is a

TODOs:
- ~~Entry is still `<'a, K, V>` instead of `<'a, O, V>`~~
- ~~BTreeMap is still outstanding~~.
- ~~Transform appropriate things into `.entry(...).get().or_else(|e| ...)`~~
Things that make me frowny face:
- I'm not happy about the fact that this `clone`s the key even when it's already owned.
- With small keys (e.g. `int`s), taking a reference seems wasteful.

This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how
recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the
standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release.
Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated
command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently
accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed).
The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both
of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.
This modifies `Parser::eat_lt` to always split up `<<`s, instead of doing so only when a lifetime name followed or the `force` parameter (now removed) was `true`. This is because `Foo<<TYPE` is now a valid start to a type, whereas previously only `Foo<<LIFETIME` was valid.
This is a [breaking-change]. Change code that looks like this:
```rust
let x = foo as bar << 13;
```
to use parentheses, like this:
```rust
let x = (foo as bar) << 13;
```
Closes#17362.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization
story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports.
Some reexports are kept around, however:
* `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn.
* `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to
prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed.
* All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all
at once to `std::io::prelude::*`.
This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and
the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to
find the locations of where to import them.
