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`

last cycle, specifically:
Stabilized APIs:

Currently, `early_error` and `early_warn` in `librustc::session` always
use `ColorConfig::Auto`. Modify them to follow the color configuration
set by the `--color` option.
As colored output is also printed during the early stage, parsing the
`--color` option should be done as early as possible. However, there are
still some cases when the output needs to be colored before knowing the
exact color settings. In these cases, it will be defaulted to
`ColorConfig::Auto`, which is the same as before.
Fixes#27879.
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.
Many of these have long since reached their stage of being obsolete, so this
commit starts the removal process for all of them. The unstable features that
were deprecated are:
* cmp_partial
* fs_time
* hash_default
* int_slice
* iter_min_max
* iter_reset_fuse
* iter_to_vec
* map_in_place
* move_from
* owned_ascii_ext
* page_size
* read_and_zero
* scan_state
* slice_chars
* slice_position_elem
* subslice_offset
For now, words() is left in (but deprecated), and Words is a type alias for
struct SplitWhitespace.
Also cleaned up references to s.words() throughout codebase.
Closes#15628
This patch
1. renames libunicode to librustc_unicode,
2. deprecates several pieces of libunicode (see below), and
3. removes references to deprecated functions from
librustc_driver and libsyntax. This may change pretty-printed
output from these modules in cases involving wide or combining
characters used in filenames, identifiers, etc.
The following functions are marked deprecated:
1. char.width() and str.width():
--> use unicode-width crate
2. str.graphemes() and str.grapheme_indices():
--> use unicode-segmentation crate
3. str.nfd_chars(), str.nfkd_chars(), str.nfc_chars(), str.nfkc_chars(),
char.compose(), char.decompose_canonical(), char.decompose_compatible(),
char.canonical_combining_class():
--> use unicode-normalization crate

This commit is an overhaul to how rustdoc deals with stability of the standard
library. The handling has all been revisited with respect to Rust's current
approach to stability in terms of implementation as well as the state of the
standard library today. The high level changes made were:
* Stable items now have no marker by default
* Color-based small stability markers have been removed
* Module listings now fade out unstable/deprecated items slightly
* Trait methods have a separate background color based on stability and also
list the reason that they are unstable.
* `impl` blocks with stability no longer render at all. This may be re-added
once the compiler recognizes stability on `impl` blocks.
* `impl` blocks no longer have stability of the methods implemente indicated
* The stability summary has been removed
Closes#15468Closes#21674Closes#24201
The current help string ("space separated list") suggests that
`--passes "pass1 pass2"` is expected; the correct usage is
`--passes pass1 --passes pass2`.
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 979][rfc] which changes the meaning of
the count parameter to the `splitn` function on strings and slices. The
parameter now means the number of items that are returned from the iterator, not
the number of splits that are made.

* Marks `#[stable]` the contents of the `std::convert` module.
* Added methods `PathBuf::as_path`, `OsString::as_os_str`,
`String::as_str`, `Vec::{as_slice, as_mut_slice}`.
* Deprecates `OsStr::from_str` in favor of a new, stable, and more
general `OsStr::new`.
* Adds unstable methods `OsString::from_bytes` and `OsStr::{to_bytes,
to_cstring}` for ergonomic FFI usage.
[breaking-change]
This commit:
* Introduces `std::convert`, providing an implementation of
RFC 529.
* Deprecates the `AsPath`, `AsOsStr`, and `IntoBytes` traits, all
in favor of the corresponding generic conversion traits.
Consequently, various IO APIs now take `AsRef<Path>` rather than
`AsPath`, and so on. Since the types provided by `std` implement both
traits, this should cause relatively little breakage.
* Deprecates many `from_foo` constructors in favor of `from`.
* Changes `PathBuf::new` to take no argument (creating an empty buffer,
as per convention). The previous behavior is now available as
`PathBuf::from`.
* De-stabilizes `IntoCow`. It's not clear whether we need this separate trait.
Closes#22751Closes#14433

This commit removes the reexports of `old_io` traits as well as `old_path` types
and traits from the prelude. This functionality is now all deprecated and needs
to be removed to make way for other functionality like `Seek` in the `std::io`
module (currently reexported as `NewSeek` in the io prelude).
Closes#23377Closes#23378
This commit stabilizes the `ErrorKind` enumeration which is consumed by and
generated by the `io::Error` type. The purpose of this type is to serve as a
cross-platform namespace to categorize errors into. Two specific issues are
addressed as part of this stablization:
* The naming of each variant was scrutinized and some were tweaked. An example
is how `FileNotFound` was renamed to simply `NotFound`. These names should not
show either a Unix or Windows bias and the set of names is intended to grow
over time. For now the names will likely largely consist of those errors
generated by the I/O APIs in the standard library.
* The mapping of OS error codes onto kinds has been altered. Coalescing no
longer occurs (multiple error codes become one kind). It is intended that each
OS error code, if bound, corresponds to only one `ErrorKind`. The current set
of error kinds was expanded slightly to include some networking errors.
This commit also adds a `raw_os_error` function which returns an `Option<i32>`
to extract the underlying raw error code from the `Error`.
This commit stabilizes essentially all of the new `std::path` API. The
API itself is changed in a couple of ways (which brings it in closer
alignment with the RFC):
* `.` components are now normalized away, unless they appear at the
start of a path. This in turn effects the semantics of e.g. asking for
the file name of `foo/` or `foo/.`, both of which yield `Some("foo")`
now. This semantics is what the original RFC specified, and is also
desirable given early experience rolling out the new API.
* The `parent` function now succeeds if, and only if, the path has at
least one non-root/prefix component. This change affects `pop` as
well.
* The `Prefix` component now involves a separate `PrefixComponent`
struct, to better allow for keeping both parsed and unparsed prefix data.
In addition, the `old_path` module is now deprecated.
Closes#23264
[breaking-change]
This commit performs a stabilization pass over the `std::fs` module now that
it's had some time to bake. The change was largely just adding `#[stable]` tags,
but there are a few APIs that remain `#[unstable]`.
The following apis are now marked `#[stable]`:
* `std::fs` (the name)
* `File`
* `Metadata`
* `ReadDir`
* `DirEntry`
* `OpenOptions`
* `Permissions`
* `File::{open, create}`
* `File::{sync_all, sync_data}`
* `File::set_len`
* `File::metadata`
* Trait implementations for `File` and `&File`
* `OpenOptions::new`
* `OpenOptions::{read, write, append, truncate, create}`
* `OpenOptions::open` - this function was modified, however, to not attempt to
reject cross-platform openings of directories. This means that some platforms
will succeed in opening a directory and others will fail.
* `Metadata::{is_dir, is_file, len, permissions}`
* `Permissions::{readonly, set_readonly}`
* `Iterator for ReadDir`
* `DirEntry::path`
* `remove_file` - like with `OpenOptions::open`, the extra windows code to
remove a readonly file has been removed. This means that removing a readonly
file will succeed on some platforms but fail on others.
* `metadata`
* `rename`
* `copy`
* `hard_link`
* `soft_link`
* `read_link`
* `create_dir`
* `create_dir_all`
* `remove_dir`
* `remove_dir_all`
* `read_dir`
The following apis remain `#[unstable]`.
* `WalkDir` and `walk` - there are many methods by which a directory walk can be
constructed, and it's unclear whether the current semantics are the right
ones. For example symlinks are not handled super well currently. This is now
behind a new `fs_walk` feature.
* `File::path` - this is an extra abstraction which the standard library
provides on top of what the system offers and it's unclear whether we should
be doing so. This is now behind a new `file_path` feature.
* `Metadata::{accessed, modified}` - we do not currently have a good
abstraction for a moment in time which is what these APIs should likely be
returning, so these remain `#[unstable]` for now. These are now behind a new
`fs_time` feature
* `set_file_times` - like with `Metadata::accessed`, we do not currently have
the appropriate abstraction for the arguments here so this API remains
unstable behind the `fs_time` feature gate.
* `PathExt` - the precise set of methods on this trait may change over time and
some methods may be removed. This API remains unstable behind the `path_ext`
feature gate.
* `set_permissions` - we may wish to expose a more granular ability to set the
permissions on a file instead of just a blanket "set all permissions" method.
This function remains behind the `fs` feature.
The following apis are now `#[deprecated]`
* The `TempDir` type is now entirely deprecated and is [located on
crates.io][tempdir] as the `tempdir` crate with [its source][github] at
rust-lang/tempdir.

The stability of some of these APIs has been questioned over the past few weeks
in using these APIs, and it is intentional that the majority of APIs here are
marked `#[stable]`. The `std::fs` module has a lot of room to grow and the
material is [being tracked in a RFC issue][rfc-issue].
