-Cremark#[test]-like built-in attribute macro is present multiple times.-Z emit-future-incompat as --json future-incompatThis release disables incremental compilation, unless the user has explicitly opted in via the newly added RUSTC_FORCE_INCREMENTAL=1 environment variable. This is due to a known and relatively frequently occurring bug in incremental compilation, which causes builds to issue internal compiler errors. This particular bug is already fixed on nightly, but that fix has not yet rolled out to stable and is deemed too risky for a direct stable backport.
As always, we encourage users to test with nightly and report bugs so that we can track failures and fix issues earlier.

std::sys::windows::alloc implementation.get_blanket_implsThis release disables incremental compilation, unless the user has explicitly opted in via the newly added RUSTC_FORCE_INCREMENTAL=1 environment variable.
This is due to the widespread, and frequently occurring, breakage encountered by Rust users due to newly enabled incremental verification in 1.52.0. Notably, Rust users should upgrade to 1.52.0 or 1.52.1: the bugs that are detected by newly added incremental verification are still present in past stable versions, and are not yet fixed on any channel. These bugs can lead to miscompilation of Rust binaries.
These problems only affect incremental builds, so release builds with Cargo should not be affected unless the user has explicitly opted into incremental. Debug and check builds are affected.

You can now use #[repr(transparent)] on univariant enums. Meaning that you can create an enum that has the exact layout and ABI of the type it contains.
You can now use outer attribute procedural macros on inline modules.
There are some syntax-only changes:
default is syntactically allowed before items in trait definitions.impls (i.e. consts, types, and fns) may syntactically leave out their bodies in favor of ;.impls are now syntactically allowed (e.g. type Foo: Ord;).... (the C-variadic type) may occur syntactically directly as the type of any function parameter.These are still rejected semantically, so you will likely receive an error but these changes can be seen and parsed by procedural macros and conditional compilation.

You can also use [profile.<profile>.build-override] to override build scripts and their dependencies.edition in documentation code blocks to compile the block for that edition. E.g. edition2018 tells rustdoc that the code sample should be compiled the 2018 edition of Rust.--theme, and check the current theme with --check-theme.#[cfg(doc)] to compile an item when building documentation.You can now use tuple structs and tuple enum variant's constructors in const contexts. e.g.
pub struct Point(i32, i32); const ORIGIN: Point = { let constructor = Point; constructor(0, 0) };
You can now mark structs, enums, and enum variants with the #[non_exhaustive] attribute to indicate that there may be variants or fields added in the future. For example this requires adding a wild-card branch (_ => {}) to any match statements on a non-exhaustive enum. (RFC 2008)
You can now use function-like procedural macros in extern blocks and in type positions. e.g. type Generated = macro!();
The meta pattern matcher in macro_rules! now correctly matches the modern attribute syntax. For example (#[$m:meta]) now matches #[attr], #[attr{tokens}], #[attr[tokens]], and #[attr(tokens)].

Padding zeroes are now always placed after the sign if it exists and before the digits. With the # flag the zeroes are placed after the prefix and before the digits.
Due to the struct field optimisation, using transmute on structs that have no repr attribute or #[repr(Rust)] will no longer work. This has always been undefined behavior, but is now more likely to break in practice.
The refactor of trait object type parsing fixed a bug where + was receiving the wrong priority parsing things like &for<'a> Tr<'a> + Send as &(for<'a> Tr<'a> + Send) instead of (&for<'a> Tr<'a>) + Send

These include Condvar::wait_timeout_ms, thread::sleep_ms, and thread::park_timeout_ms.Vec reserves additional elements was tweaked to not allocate excessive space while still growing exponentially.From conversions are implemented from integers to floats in cases where the conversion is lossless. Thus they are not implemented for 32-bit ints to f32, nor for 64-bit ints to f32 or f64. They are also not implemented for isize and usize because the implementations would be platform-specific.

In 1.6 it will no longer be possible to publish crates with wildcard dependencies.AsRef and AsMut were added to Box, Rc, and Arc. Because these smart pointer types implement Deref, this causes breakage in cases where the interior type contains methods of the same name.Self are not object safe. Soundness fix.no_default_libraries setting that controls whether -nodefaultlibs is passed to the linker, and in turn the is_like_windows setting no longer affects the -nodefaultlibs flag.#[derive(Show)], long-deprecated, has been removed.#[inline] and #[repr] attributes can only appear in valid locations.#[no_debug] and #[omit_gdb_pretty_printer_section] are feature gated.use statements to import unstable features.improper_ctypes lint no longer warns about using isize and usize in FFI.Arc<T> and Rc<T> are covariant with respect to T instead of invariant.Default is implemented for mutable slices.FromStr is implemented for SockAddrV4 and SockAddrV6.From conversions between floating point types where the conversions are lossless.From conversions between integer types where the conversions are lossless.fs::Metadata implements Clone.parse method accepts a leading “+” when parsing integers.AsMut is implemented for Vec.clone_from implementations for String and BinaryHeap have been optimized and no longer rely on the default impl.extern "Rust", extern "C", unsafe extern "Rust" and unsafe extern "C" function types now implement Clone, PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, Ord, Hash, fmt::Pointer, and fmt::Debug for up to 12 arguments.Vecs is much faster in unoptimized builds when the element types don't implement Drop.VecDeque with zero-sized types was resolved.PartialOrd for slices is faster.str::lines and BufRead::lines iterators treat \r\n as line breaks in addition to \n.'static lifetime extend to the end of a function.str::parse no longer introduces avoidable rounding error when parsing floating point numbers. Together with earlier changes to float formatting/output, “round trips” like f.to_string().parse() now preserve the value of f exactly.

This basic unit of timekeeping is employed by other std APIs, as well as out-of-tree time crates.#[prelude_import] attribute, an internal implementation detail, was accidentally stabilized previously. It has been put behind the prelude_import feature gate. This change is believed to break no existing code.size_of_val and align_of_val is more sane for dynamically sized types. Code that relied on the previous behavior is thought to be broken.dropck rules, which checks that destructors can't access destroyed values, have been updated to match the RFC. This fixes some soundness holes, and as such will cause some previously-compiling code to no longer build.size_of_val and align_of_val is more sane for dynamically sized types. Code that relied on the previous behavior is not known to exist, and suspected to be broken.'static variables may now be recursive.ref bindings choose between Deref and DerefMut implementations correctly.dropck rules, which checks that destructors can't access destroyed values, have been updated to match the RFC.Duration API, has been stabilized, as well as the std::time module, which presently contains only Duration.Box<str> and Box<[T]> both implement Clone.CString, implements Borrow and the borrowed C string, CStr, implements ToOwned. The two of these allow C strings to be borrowed and cloned in generic code.CStr implements Debug.AtomicPtr implements Debug.Error trait objects can be downcast to their concrete types in many common configurations, using the is, downcast, downcast_ref and downcast_mut methods, similarly to the Any trait.contains, find, rfind, split. starts_with and ends_with are also faster.PartialEq for slices is much faster.Hash trait offers the default method, hash_slice, which is overridden and optimized by the implementations for scalars.Hasher trait now has a number of specialized write_* methods for primitive types, for efficiency.std::io::Error, gained a set of methods for accessing the ‘inner error’, if any: get_ref, get_mut, into_inner. As well, the implementation of std::error::Error::cause also delegates to the inner error.process::Child gained the id method, which returns a u32 representing the platform-specific process identifier.connect method on slices is deprecated, replaced by the new join method (note that both of these are on the unstable SliceConcatExt trait, but through the magic of the prelude are available to stable code anyway).Div operator is implemented for Wrapping types.DerefMut is implemented for String.HashMap) is better for long data.AtomicPtr implements Send.read_to_end implementations for Stdin and File are now specialized to use uninitialized buffers for increased performance.--explain flag.dropck pass, which checks that destructors can't access destroyed values, has been rewritten.

This is not known to break real code.#[packed] attribute is no longer silently accepted by the compiler. This attribute did nothing and code that mentioned it likely did not work as intended.associated_type_defaults feature gate. In 1.1 associated type defaults did not work, but could be mentioned syntactically. As such this breakage has minimal impact.ref mut now correctly invoke DerefMut when matching against dereferenceable values.Extend trait, which grows a collection from an iterator, is implemented over iterators of references, for String, Vec, LinkedList, VecDeque, EnumSet, BinaryHeap, VecMap, BTreeSet and BTreeMap.

These are in addition to the existing wrapping_add, wrapping_sub, and wrapping_mul methods, and alternatives to the Wrapping type.. It is illegal for the default arithmetic operations in Rust to overflow; the desire to wrap must be explicit.{:#?} formatting specifier displays the alternate, pretty-printed form of the Debug formatter. This feature was actually introduced prior to 1.0 with little fanfare.fmt::Formatter implements fmt::Write, a fmt-specific trait for writing data to formatted strings, similar to io::Write.fmt::Formatter adds ‘debug builder’ methods, debug_struct, debug_tuple, debug_list, debug_set, debug_map. These are used by code generators to emit implementations of Debug.str has new to_uppercase and to_lowercase methods that convert case, following Unicode case mapping.PoisonError type, returned by failing lock operations, exposes into_inner, get_ref, and get_mut, which all give access to the inner lock guard, and allow the poisoned lock to continue to operate.

On Windows the FromRawHandle trait is implemented for Stdio, and AsRawHandle for ChildStdin, ChildStdout, ChildStderr.io::ErrorKind has a new variant, InvalidData, which indicates malformed input.rustc employs smarter heuristics for guessing at typos.rustc emits more efficient code for no-op conversions between unsafe pointers.std::fs module has been expanded to expand the set of functionality exposed:DirEntry now supports optimizations like file_type and metadata which don't incur a syscall on some platforms.symlink_metadata function has been added.fs::Metadata structure now lowers to its OS counterpart, providing access to all underlying information.--explain flag to read the explanation. Error explanations are also available online.str::split_whitespace method splits a string on unicode whitespace boundaries.FromRawFd and AsRawFd, on Windows FromRawHandle and AsRawHandle. These are implemented for File, TcpStream, TcpListener, and UpdSocket. Further implementations for std::process will be stabilized later.std::os::unix::symlink creates symlinks.

Presently this is set to gnu for common GNU Linux targets and for MinGW targets, and musl for MUSL Linux targets.cargo rustc command invokes a build with custom flags to rustc.drop_with_repr_extern lint warns about mixing repr(C) with Drop.#[stable]. It is no longer possible to use unstable features with a stable build of the compiler.0b1234 is now lexed as 0b1234 instead of two tokens, 0b1 and 234.PhantomFn and MarkerTrait lang items, which have been removed.extern crate "foo" as bar syntax has been replaced with extern crate foo as bar, and Cargo now automatically translates “-” in package names to underscore for the crate name.Send no longer implies 'static.MyType::default().SliceExt.Self: Sized in their where clause are considered object-safe, allowing many extension traits like IteratorExt to be merged into the traits they extended.where clause.Send and Sync are now library-defined.Any trait is effectively limited to concrete types. This helps retain the potentially-important “parametricity” property: generic code cannot behave differently for different type arguments except in minor ways.unsafe_destructor feature is now deprecated in favor of the new dropck. This change is a major reduction in unsafe code.thread_local module has been renamed to std::thread.IteratorExt have been moved to the Iterator trait itself.AsMut, AsRef, From, and Into have been centralized in the std::convert module.FromError trait was removed in favor of From.std::thread::sleep_ms.splitn function now takes an n parameter that represents the number of items yielded by the returned iterator instead of the number of ‘splits’.CLOEXEC by default.PartialOrd now order enums according to their explicitly-assigned discriminants.Patterns, implemented presently by &char, &str, FnMut(char) -> bool and some others.String::from_str has been deprecated in favor of the From impl, String::from.io::Error implements Sync.words method on &str has been replaced with split_whitespace, to avoid answering the tricky question, ‘what is a word?’#[stable]. This was the major library focus for this cycle.., adjusting the tradeoffs in favor of the most common usage.std were also stabilized during this cycle; about 75% of the non-deprecated API surface is now stable.Fn traits are now related via inheritance and provide ergonomic blanket implementations.Index and IndexMut traits were changed to take the index by value, enabling code like hash_map["string"] to work.Copy now inherits from Clone, meaning that all Copy data is known to be Clone as well.--explain flag to rustc.~1300 changes, numerous bugfixes

io module remains temporarily at std::old_io.#![feature(...)] attribute. The impact of this change is described on the forum. RFC.Language
for loops now operate on the IntoIterator trait, which eliminates the need to call .iter(), etc. to iterate over collections. There are some new subtleties to remember though regarding what sort of iterators various types yield, in particular that for foo in bar { } yields values from a move iterator, destroying the original collection. RFC.Box<Trait+'static> when you don’t care about storing references. RFC.Drop, lifetimes must outlive the value. This will soon make it possible to safely implement Drop for types where #[unsafe_destructor] is now required. Read the gorgeous RFC for details.Deref<U> now automatically coerce to references to the dereferenced type U, e.g. &T where T: Deref<U> automatically coerces to &U. This should eliminate many unsightly uses of &*, as when converting from references to vectors into references to slices. RFC.|&:|, |&mut:|, |:|) is obsolete and closure kind is inferred from context.Self is a keyword.Libraries

Unsafe pointers no longer implement Sync and Send so types containing them don't automatically either. Sync and Send are now ‘unsafe traits’ so one can “forcibly” implement them via unsafe impl if a type confirms to the requirements for them even though the internals do not (e.g. structs containing unsafe pointers like Arc). These changes are intended to prevent some footguns and are collectively known as opt-in built-in traits (though Sync and Send will soon become pure library types unknown to the compiler).String to be compared with &str.if let and while let are no longer feature-gated.macro_rules! has been declared stable. Though it is a flawed system it is sufficiently popular that it must be usable for 1.0.
