Currently, we only infer the kind of a closure based on the expected type or explicit annotation. If neither applies, we currently report an error. This pull request changes that case to defer the decision until we are able to analyze the actions of the closure: closures which mutate their environment require `FnMut`, closures which move out of their environment require `FnOnce`. This PR is not the end of the story: - It does not remove the explicit annotations nor disregard them. The latter is the logical next step to removing them (we'll need a snapshot before we can do anything anyhow). Disregarding explicit annotations might expose more bugs since right now all closures in libstd/rustc use explicit annotations or the expected type, so this inference never kicks in. - The interaction with instantiating type parameter fallbacks leaves something to be desired. This is mostly just saying that the algorithm from https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/213 needs to be implemented, which is a separate bug. There are some semi-subtle interactions though because not knowing whether a closure is `Fn` vs `FnMut` prevents us from resolving obligations like `F : FnMut(...)`, which can in turn prevent unification of some type parameters, which might (in turn) lead to undesired fallback. We can improve this situation however -- even if we don't know whether (or just how) `F : FnMut(..)` holds or not for some closure type `F`, we can still perform unification since we *do* know the argument and return types. Once kind inference is done, we can complete the `F : FnMut(..)` analysis -- which might yield an error if (e.g.) the `F` moves out of its environment. r? @nick29581 |

The Rust Programming Language
This is a compiler for Rust, including standard libraries, tools and documentation.
Quick Start
- Download a binary installer for your platform.
- Read The Rust Programming Language.
- Enjoy!
Note: Windows users can read the detailed using Rust on Windows notes on the wiki.
Building from Source
-
Make sure you have installed the dependencies:
g++4.7 orclang++3.xpython2.6 or later (but not 3.x)- GNU
make3.81 or later curlgit
-
Download and build Rust:
You can either download a tarball or build directly from the repo.
To build from the tarball do:
$ curl -O https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rustc-nightly-src.tar.gz $ tar -xzf rustc-nightly-src.tar.gz $ cd rustc-nightlyOr to build from the repo do:
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/rust.git $ cd rustNow that you have Rust's source code, you can configure and build it:
$ ./configure $ make && make installNote: You may need to use
sudo make installif you do not normally have permission to modify the destination directory. The install locations can be adjusted by passing a--prefixargument toconfigure. Various other options are also supported, pass--helpfor more information on them.When complete,
make installwill place several programs into/usr/local/bin:rustc, the Rust compiler, andrustdoc, the API-documentation tool. -
Enjoy!
Building on Windows
To easily build on windows we can use MSYS2:
- Grab the latest MSYS2 installer and go through the installer.
- Now from the MSYS2 terminal we want to install the mingw64 toolchain and the other tools we need.
# choose one based on platform
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain
$ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain
$ pacman -S base-devel
-
With that now start
mingw32_shell.batormingw64_shell.batfrom where you installed MSYS2 (i.e.C:\msys). Which one you choose depends on if you want 32 or 64 bit Rust. -
From there just navigate to where you have Rust's source code, configure and build it:
$ ./configure $ make && make install
Notes
Since the Rust compiler is written in Rust, it must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version of itself (made in an earlier state of development). As such, source builds require a connection to the Internet, to fetch snapshots, and an OS that can execute the available snapshot binaries.
Snapshot binaries are currently built and tested on several platforms:
- Windows (7, 8, Server 2008 R2), x86 and x86-64 (64-bit support added in Rust 0.12.0)
- Linux (2.6.18 or later, various distributions), x86 and x86-64
- OSX 10.7 (Lion) or greater, x86 and x86-64
You may find that other platforms work, but these are our officially supported build environments that are most likely to work.
Rust currently needs about 1.5 GiB of RAM to build without swapping; if it hits swap, it will take a very long time to build.
There is a lot more documentation in the wiki.
Getting help and getting involved
The Rust community congregates in a few places:
- StackOverflow - Direct questions about using the language here.
- users.rust-lang.org - General discussion, broader questions.
- internals.rust-lang.org - For development of the Rust language itself.
- /r/rust - News and general discussion.
