Conversions between slices and boxes #39438

clarfonthey · 2017-02-01T03:48:52Z

This allows conversion for Copy slices, str, and CStr into their boxed counterparts.

This also adds the method CString::into_boxed_c_str.

I would like to add similar implementations for OsStr as well, but I have not figured out how.

Since these impls are instantly stable, we need the full libs team to sign off.

Personally, I think that we will continue growing such impls until the end of time. Due to trait coherence, std is the only place such impls can live. So I'm fine continuing to sign off on such PRs.

@rfcbot fcp merge

aturon · 2017-02-01T18:56:34Z

Whoops, didn't have the libs team assigned first, trying again:

@rfcbot fcp merge

rfcbot · 2017-02-01T18:56:35Z

Team member @aturon has proposed to merge this. The next step is review by the rest of the tagged teams:

No concerns currently listed.

Once these reviewers reach consensus, this will enter its final comment period. If you spot a major issue that hasn't been raised at any point in this process, please speak up!

See this document for info about what commands tagged team members can give me.

Reminder to self for later: also add versions for CStr and OsStr

alexcrichton · 2017-02-04T22:38:02Z

@clarcharr the compile failures here seem worrisome, they may want to be fixed!

clarfonthey · 2017-02-04T22:50:13Z

@alexcrichton I'll fix those soon; I know what's wrong.

Instead of using Vec and String I'll have to do it manually.

clarfonthey · 2017-02-05T00:39:59Z

Waiting on tests, but this should work now. I also added an implementation for CStr and added a new method, CString::into_boxed_c_str, which will need a tracking issue once I get an informal nod that such a method is okay to add.

alexcrichton · 2017-02-06T19:19:08Z

@clarcharr perhaps the CStr parts could be left out for a future PR? Unfortunately trait impls are instantly stable today and we don't have much other precedent with that type and DST impls, so we may just wish to conservatively tackle it in a separate PR

clarfonthey · 2017-02-06T19:34:52Z

Sounds good to me! I'll split them out and open another PR.

clarfonthey · 2017-02-08T04:02:03Z

@malbarbo That's because it's more efficient if the type implements Copy, but I could make a more general version using impl specialisation. If you think it's worth having, feel free to open an issue and I might get around to it!

malbarbo · 2017-02-08T09:47:24Z

@clarcharr You can use Vec::from_iter, it is already specialized for copy types https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/src/collections/vec.rs.html#1499-1670

clarfonthey · 2017-02-08T15:47:33Z

@malbarbo right now that'll work for .to_vec().into_boxed_slice(), but not directly like in these conversions. I'll take a look at it in my other PR.

clarfonthey · 2017-02-10T06:17:45Z

So apparently this didn't get merged? Did I miss something?

flaky thread sanitizer test? (guessing)

@japaric does that look familiar? We may have to disable the test if it ends up being flaky :(

@alexcrichton Sadly, no. I haven't seen the thread sanitizer not catch that data race before. I'll test locally to see if I can repro.
