Version 1.44.0 (2020-06-04)
==========================

Language
--------
- [You can now use `async/.await` with `#[no_std]` enabled.][69033]
- [Added the `unused_braces` lint.][70081]

**Syntax-only changes**

- [Expansion-driven outline module parsing][69838]
```rust
#[cfg(FALSE)]
mod foo {
mod bar {
mod baz; // `foo/bar/baz.rs` doesn't exist, but no error!
}
}
```

These are still rejected semantically, so you will likely receive an error but
XAMPPRocky marked this conversation as resolved.

these changes can be seen and parsed by macros and conditional compilation.

Compiler
--------
- [Rustc now respects the `-C codegen-units` flag in incremental mode.][70156]
Additionally when in incremental mode rustc defaults to 256 codegen units.
- [Refactored `catch_unwind`, to have zero-cost unless unwinding is enabled and
a panic is thrown.][67502]
- [Added tier 3\* support for the `aarch64-unknown-none` and
`aarch64-unknown-none-softfloat` targets.][68334]
- [Added tier 3 support for `arm64-apple-tvos` and
`x86_64-apple-tvos` targets.][68191]


Libraries
---------
- [Special cased `vec![]` to map directly to `Vec::new()`.][70632] This allows
`vec![]` to be able to be used in `const` contexts.
- [`convert::Infallible` now implements `Hash`.][70281]
- [`OsString` now implements `DerefMut` and `IndexMut` returning
a `&mut OsStr`.][70048]
- [Unicode 13 is now supported.][69929]
- [`String` now implements `From<&mut str>`.][69661]
- [`IoSlice` now implements `Copy`.][69403]
- [`Vec<T>` now implements `From<[T; N]>`.][68692] Where `N` is less than 32.
- [`proc_macro::LexError` now implements `fmt::Display` and `Error`.][68899]
- [`from_le_bytes`, `to_le_bytes`, `from_be_bytes`, `to_be_bytes`,
`from_ne_bytes`, and `to_ne_bytes` methods are now `const` for all
integer types.][69373]

Stabilized APIs
---------------
- [`PathBuf::with_capacity`]
- [`PathBuf::capacity`]
- [`PathBuf::clear`]
- [`PathBuf::reserve`]
- [`PathBuf::reserve_exact`]
- [`PathBuf::shrink_to_fit`]
- [`f32::to_int_unchecked`]
- [`f64::to_int_unchecked`]
- [`Layout::align_to`]
- [`Layout::pad_to_align`]
- [`Layout::array`]
- [`Layout::extend`]

Cargo
-----
- [Added the `cargo tree` command which will print a tree graph of
your dependencies.][cargo/8062] E.g.
```
mdbook v0.3.2 (/Users/src/rust/mdbook)
├── ammonia v3.0.0
│ ├── html5ever v0.24.0
│ │ ├── log v0.4.8
│ │ │ └── cfg-if v0.1.9
│ │ ├── mac v0.1.1
│ │ └── markup5ever v0.9.0
│ │ ├── log v0.4.8 (*)
│ │ ├── phf v0.7.24
│ │ │ └── phf_shared v0.7.24
│ │ │ ├── siphasher v0.2.3
│ │ │ └── unicase v1.4.2
│ │ │ [build-dependencies]
│ │ │ └── version_check v0.1.5
...
```

Misc
----
- [Rustdoc now allows you to specify `--crate-version` to have rustdoc include
the version in the sidebar.][69494]

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Rustc now correctly generates static libraries on Windows GNU targets with
the `.a` extension, rather than the previous `.lib`.][70937]
- [Removed the `-C no_integrated_as` flag from rustc.][70345]
- [The `file_name` property in JSON output of macro errors now points the actual
source file rather than the previous format of `<NAME macros>`.][70969]
**Note:** this may not point a file that actually exists on the user's system.
- [The minimum required external LLVM version has been bumped to LLVM 8.][71147]
XAMPPRocky marked this conversation as resolved.

- [`mem::{zeroed, uninitialised, MaybeUninit}` will now panic when used with types
that do not allow zero initialization such as `NonZeroU8`.][66059] This was
previously a warning.
- [In 1.45.0 (the next release) converting a `f64` to `u32` using the `as`
operator has been defined as a saturating operation.][71269] This was previously
undefined behaviour, you can use the `{f64, f32}::to_int_unchecked` methods to
continue using the current behaviour which may desirable in rare performance
sensitive situations.

Internal Only
-------------
These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent significant
improvements to the internals and overall performance of rustc and
related tools.

- [dep_graph Avoid allocating a set on when the number reads are small.][69778]
- [Replace big JS dict with JSON parsing.][71250]
