according to various people on tech-pkg@, there are no problems with the Firefox build Version 1.46.0 (2020-08-27) ========================== Language -------- - [`if`, `match`, and `loop` expressions can now be used in const functions.][72437] - [Additionally you are now also able to coerce and cast to slices (`&[T]`) in const functions.][73862] - [The `#[track_caller]` attribute can now be added to functions to use the function's caller's location information for panic messages.][72445] - [Recursively indexing into tuples no longer needs parentheses.][71322] E.g. `x.0.0` over `(x.0).0`. - [`mem::transmute` can now be used in static and constants.][72920] **Note** You currently can't use `mem::transmute` in constant functions. Compiler -------- - [You can now use the `cdylib` target on Apple iOS and tvOS platforms.][73516] - [Enabled static "Position Independent Executables" by default for `x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`.][70740] Libraries --------- - [`mem::forget` is now a `const fn`.][73887] - [`String` now implements `From<char>`.][73466] - [The `leading_ones`, and `trailing_ones` methods have been stabilised for all integer types.][73032] - [`vec::IntoIter<T>` now implements `AsRef<[T]>`.][72583] - [All non-zero integer types (`NonZeroU8`) now implement `TryFrom` for their zero-able equivalent (e.g. `TryFrom<u8>`).][72717] - [`&[T]` and `&mut [T]` now implement `PartialEq<Vec<T>>`.][71660] - [`(String, u16)` now implements `ToSocketAddrs`.][73007] - [`vec::Drain<'_, T>` now implements `AsRef<[T]>`.][72584] Stabilized APIs --------------- - [`Option::zip`] - [`vec::Drain::as_slice`] Cargo ----- Added a number of new environment variables that are now available when compiling your crate. - [`CARGO_BIN_NAME` and `CARGO_CRATE_NAME`][cargo/8270] Providing the name of the specific binary being compiled and the name of the crate. - [`CARGO_PKG_LICENSE`][cargo/8325] The license from the manifest of the package. - [`CARGO_PKG_LICENSE_FILE`][cargo/8387] The path to the license file. Compatibility Notes ------------------- - [The target configuration option `abi_blacklist` has been renamed to `unsupported_abis`.][74150] The old name will still continue to work. - [Rustc will now warn if you cast a C-like enum that implements `Drop`.][72331] This was previously accepted but will become a hard error in a future release. - [Rustc will fail to compile if you have a struct with `#[repr(i128)]` or `#[repr(u128)]`.][74109] This representation is currently only allowed on `enum`s. - [Tokens passed to `macro_rules!` are now always captured.][73293] This helps ensure that spans have the correct information, and may cause breakage if you were relying on receiving spans with dummy information. - [The InnoSetup installer for Windows is no longer available.][72569] This was a legacy installer that was replaced by a MSI installer a few years ago but was still being built. - [`{f32, f64}::asinh` now returns the correct values for negative numbers.][72486] - [Rustc will no longer accept overlapping trait implementations that only differ in how the lifetime was bound.][72493] - [Rustc now correctly relates the lifetime of an existential associated type.][71896] This fixes some edge cases where `rustc` would erroneously allow you to pass a shorter lifetime than expected. - [Rustc now dynamically links to `libz` (also called `zlib`) on Linux.][74420] The library will need to be installed for `rustc` to work, even though we expect it to be already available on most systems. - [Tests annotated with `#[should_panic]` are broken on ARMv7 while running under QEMU.][74820] - [Pretty printing of some tokens in procedural macros changed.][75453] The exact output returned by rustc's pretty printing is an unstable implementation detail: we recommend any macro relying on it to switch to a more robust parsing system.
