This involves replacing `nt_pretty_printing_compatibility_hack` with
`stream_pretty_printing_compatibility_hack`.
The handling of statements in `transcribe` is slightly different to
other nonterminal kinds, due to the lack of `from_ast` implementation
for empty statements.
Notable test changes:
- `tests/ui/proc-macro/expand-to-derive.rs`: the diff looks large but
the only difference is the insertion of a single invisible-delimited
group around a metavar.
Note: there was an existing code path involving `Interpolated` in
`MetaItem::from_tokens` that was dead. This commit transfers that to the
new form, but puts an `unreachable!` call inside it.
The one notable test change is `tests/ui/macros/trace_faulty_macros.rs`.
This commit removes the complicated `Interpolated` handling in
`expected_expression_found` that results in a longer error message. But
I think the new, shorter message is actually an improvement.
The original complaint was in #71039, when the error message started
with "error: expected expression, found `1 + 1`". That was confusing
because `1 + 1` is an expression. Other than that, the reporter said
"the whole error message is not too bad if you ignore the first line".
Subsequently, extra complexity and wording was added to the error
message. But I don't think the extra wording actually helps all that
much. In particular, it still says of the `1+1` that "this is expected
to be expression". This repeats the problem from the original complaint!
This commit removes the extra complexity, reverting to a simpler error
message. This is primarily because the traversal is a pain without
`Interpolated` tokens. Nonetheless, I think the error message is
*improved*. It now starts with "expected expression, found `pat`
metavariable", which is much clearer and the real problem. It also
doesn't say anything specific about `1+1`, which is good, because the
`1+1` isn't really relevant to the error -- it's the `$e:pat` that's
important.
Notes about tests:
- tests/ui/parser/macro/trait-object-macro-matcher.rs: the syntax error
is duplicated, because it occurs now when parsing the decl macro
input, and also when parsing the expanded decl macro. But this won't
show up for normal users due to error de-duplication.
- tests/ui/associated-consts/issue-93835.rs: similar, plus there are
some additional errors about this very broken code.
- The changes to metavariable descriptions in #132629 are now visible in
error message for several tests.
The only place it is meaningfully used is in a panic message in
`TokenStream::from_ast`. But `node.span()` doesn't need to be printed
because `node` is also printed and it must contain the span.
The extra span is now recorded in the new `TokenKind::NtIdent` and
`TokenKind::NtLifetime`. These both consist of a single token, and so
there's no operator precedence problems with inserting them directly
into the token stream.
The other way to do this would be to wrap the ident/lifetime in invisible
delimiters, but there's a lot of code that assumes an interpolated
ident/lifetime fits in a single token, and changing all that code to work with
invisible delimiters would have been a pain. (Maybe it could be done in a
follow-up.)
This change might not seem like much of a win, but it's a first step toward the
much bigger and long-desired removal of `Nonterminal` and
`TokenKind::Interpolated`. That change is big and complex enough that it's
worth doing this piece separately. (Indeed, this commit is based on part of a
late commit in #114647, a prior attempt at that big and complex change.)
Convert all the crates that have had their diagnostic migration
completed (except save_analysis because that will be deleted soon and
apfloat because of the licensing problem).
`To` is better than `Create` for indicating that this is a non-consuming
conversion, rather than creating something out of nothing.
And the addition of `Attr` is because the current names makes them sound
like they relate to `TokenStream`, but really they relate to
`AttrTokenStream`.
In some places we use `Vec<Attribute>` and some places we use
`ThinVec<Attribute>` (a.k.a. `AttrVec`). This results in various points
where we have to convert between `Vec` and `ThinVec`.
This commit changes the places that use `Vec<Attribute>` to use
`AttrVec`. A lot of this is mechanical and boring, but there are
some interesting parts:
- It adds a few new methods to `ThinVec`.
- It implements `MapInPlace` for `ThinVec`, and introduces a macro to
avoid the repetition of this trait for `Vec`, `SmallVec`, and
`ThinVec`.
Overall, it makes the code a little nicer, and has little effect on
performance. But it is a precursor to removing
`rustc_data_structures::thin_vec::ThinVec` and replacing it with
`thin_vec::ThinVec`, which is implemented more efficiently.
