It was pointed out in review that the glob-exported
underscore-suffixed convention for `Spanned` HIR nodes is no longer
preferred: see February 2016's #31487 for AST's migration away from
this style towards properly namespaced NodeKind enums.
This concerns #51968.
There are at least a couple (and plausibly even three) diagnostics that
could use the spans of visibility modifiers in order to be reliably
correct (rather than hacking and munging surrounding spans to try to
infer where the visibility keyword must have been).
We follow the naming convention established by the other `Spanned` HIR
nodes: the "outer" type alias gets the "prime" node-type name, the
"inner" enum gets the name suffixed with an underscore, and the variant
names are prefixed with the prime name and `pub use` exported from here
(from HIR).
Thanks to veteran reviewer Vadim Petrochenkov for suggesting this
uniform approach. (A previous draft, based on the reasoning that
`Visibility::Inherited` should not have a span, tried to hack in a named
`span` field on `Visibility::Restricted` and a positional field on
`Public` and `Crate`. This was ... not so uniform.)
This is gated on edition 2018 & the `async_await` feature gate.
The parser will accept `async fn` and `async unsafe fn` as fn
items. Along the same lines as `const fn`, only `async unsafe fn`
is permitted, not `unsafe async fn`.The parser will not accept
`async` functions as trait methods.
To do a little code clean up, four fields of the function type
struct have been merged into the new `FnHeader` struct: constness,
asyncness, unsafety, and ABI.
Also, a small bug in HIR printing is fixed: it previously printed
`const unsafe fn` as `unsafe const fn`, which is grammatically
incorrect.
A new section is added to both both struct and trait doc pages.
On struct/enum pages, a new 'Auto Trait Implementations' section displays any
synthetic implementations for auto traits. Currently, this is only done
for Send and Sync.
On trait pages, a new 'Auto Implementors' section displays all types
which automatically implement the trait. Effectively, this is a list of
all public types in the standard library.
Synthesized impls for a particular auto trait ('synthetic impls') take
into account generic bounds. For example, a type 'struct Foo<T>(T)' will
have 'impl<T> Send for Foo<T> where T: Send' generated for it.
Manual implementations of auto traits are also taken into account. If we have
the following types:
'struct Foo<T>(T)'
'struct Wrapper<T>(Foo<T>)'
'unsafe impl<T> Send for Wrapper<T>' // pretend that Wrapper<T> makes
this sound somehow
Then Wrapper will have the following impl generated:
'impl<T> Send for Wrapper<T>'
reflecting the fact that 'T: Send' need not hold for 'Wrapper<T>: Send'
to hold
Lifetimes, HRTBS, and projections (e.g. '<T as Iterator>::Item') are
taken into account by synthetic impls
However, if a type can *never* implement a particular auto trait
(e.g. 'struct MyStruct<T>(*const T)'), then a negative impl will be
generated (in this case, 'impl<T> !Send for MyStruct<T>')
All of this means that a user should be able to copy-paste a synthetic
impl into their code, without any observable changes in behavior
(assuming the rest of the program remains unchanged).
No longer parse it.
Remove AutoTrait variant from AST and HIR.
Remove backwards compatibility lint.
Remove coherence checks, they make no sense for the new syntax.
Remove from rustdoc.
DefaultImpl is a highly confusing name for what we now call auto impls,
as in `impl Send for ..`. The name auto impl is not formally decided
but for sanity anything is better than `DefaultImpl` which refers
neither to `default impl` nor to `impl Default`.
this commit implements the first step of the `default impl` feature:
all items in a `default impl` are (implicitly) `default` and hence
specializable.
In order to test this feature I've copied all the tests provided for the
`default` method implementation (in run-pass/specialization and
compile-fail/specialization directories) and moved the `default` keyword
from the item to the impl.
