Version 1.45.2 (2020-08-03)
Version 1.45.1 (2020-07-30)
- Fix const propagation with references.
- rustfmt accepts rustfmt_skip in cfg_attr again.
- Avoid spurious implicit region bound.
- Install clippy on x.py install
Version 1.45.0 (2020-07-16)
Language
- Out of range float to int conversions using
as
has been defined as a saturating conversion. This was previously undefined behaviour, but you can use the{f64, f32}::to_int_unchecked
methods to continue using the current behaviour, which may be desirable in rare performance sensitive situations. mem::Discriminant<T>
now usesT
's discriminant type instead of always usingu64
.- Function like procedural macros can now be used in expression, pattern, and statement
positions. This means you can now use a function-like procedural macro
anywhere you can use a declarative (
macro_rules!
) macro.
Compiler
- You can now override individual target features through the
target-feature
flag. E.g.-C target-feature=+avx2 -C target-feature=+fma
is now equivalent to-C target-feature=+avx2,+fma
. - Added the
force-unwind-tables
flag. This option allows rustc to always generate unwind tables regardless of panic strategy. - Added the
embed-bitcode
flag. This codegen flag allows rustc to include LLVM bitcode into generatedrlib
s (this is on by default). - Added the
tiny
value to thecode-model
codegen flag. - Added tier 3 support* for the
mipsel-sony-psp
target. - Added tier 3 support for the
thumbv7a-uwp-windows-msvc
target. - Upgraded to LLVM 10.
* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][platform-support-doc] for more information on Rust's tiered platform support.
Libraries
net::{SocketAddr, SocketAddrV4, SocketAddrV6}
now implementsPartialOrd
andOrd
.proc_macro::TokenStream
now implementsDefault
.- You can now use
char
withops::{Range, RangeFrom, RangeFull, RangeInclusive, RangeTo}
to iterate over a range of codepoints. E.g. you can now write the following;#![allow(unused)] fn main() { for ch in 'a'..='z' { print!("{}", ch); } println!(); // Prints "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" }
OsString
now implementsFromStr
.- The
saturating_neg
method has been added to all signed integer primitive types, and thesaturating_abs
method has been added for all integer primitive types. Arc<T>
,Rc<T>
now implementFrom<Cow<'_, T>>
, andBox
now implementsFrom<Cow>
whenT
is[T: Copy]
,str
,CStr
,OsStr
, orPath
.Box<[T]>
now implementsFrom<[T; N]>
.BitOr
andBitOrAssign
are implemented for allNonZero
integer types.- The
fetch_min
, andfetch_max
methods have been added to all atomic integer types. - The
fetch_update
method has been added to all atomic integer types.

Misc
- Rustdoc now supports strikethrough text in Markdown. E.g.
~~outdated information~~
becomes "outdated information". - Added an emoji to Rustdoc's deprecated API message.
Compatibility Notes
- Trying to self initialize a static value (that is creating a value using itself) is unsound and now causes a compile error.
{f32, f64}::powi
now returns a slightly different value on Windows. This is due to changes in LLVM's intrinsics which{f32, f64}::powi
uses.- Rustdoc's CLI's extra error exit codes have been removed. These were previously undocumented and not intended for public use. Rustdoc still provides a non-zero exit code on errors.
- Rustc's
lto
flag is incompatible with the newembed-bitcode=no
. This may cause issues if LTO is enabled throughRUSTFLAGS
orcargo rustc
flags while cargo is addingembed-bitcode
itself. The recommended way to control LTO is with Cargo profiles, either inCargo.toml
or.cargo/config
, or by settingCARGO_PROFILE_<name>_LTO
in the environment.
