The example with OpenSSL is incorrect, because OpenSSL is using a
static variable for the return value and isn't thread-safe.
The gettimeofday example isn't great because it's not very portable.
This is preliminary work on bringing rustpkg up to conformance with #5679
and related issues.
This change makes rustpkg infer a package ID from its containing directory,
instead of requiring name and vers attributes in the code. Many aspects of it
are incomplete; I've only tested one package (see README.txt) and one command,
"build". So far it only works for local packages.
I also removed code for several of the package commands other than "build",
replacing them with stubs that fail, since they used package IDs in ways that
didn't jibe well with the new scheme. I will re-implement the commands one
at a time.
This adds an example for most of the methods in Rng.
As a total newcomer to Rust, it took a while to figure out how to do basic things like use library functions, because there aren't many usage examples, and most examples that Google turns up are out of date. Something like this would have saved me a bit of time.
This might be a bit verbose. Some alternative options would be to consolidate all the examples into one section, or to only have code for the specific function call inline.
Good morning,
This first patch series adds support for `#[deriving(Decodable, Encodable)]`, but does not yet remove `#[auto_encode]` and `#[auto_decode]`. I need a snapshot to remove the old code. Along the way it also extends support for tuple structs and struct enum variants.
Also, it includes a minor fix to the pretty printer. We decided a while ago to use 4 spaces to indent a match arm instead of 2. This updates the pretty printer to reflect that.
There's no unifying theme here; I'm just trying to clear a bunch of small commits: removing dead code, adding comments, renaming to an upper-case type, fixing one test case.
