Compile fail stable #43949

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-08-17T20:14:17Z

Since #30726, we never made the compile_fail flag nor the error code check stable. I think it's time to change this fact.

r? @alexcrichton

Gankra · 2017-08-17T20:20:00Z

I'm a big fan of having "this doesn't compile" on stable, but as per our historical gripes with compile-fail tests, I'm not sure if we should allow stable code to check error codes, since I'm like 99.9% sure those aren't stable (in that something may stop compiling for a different reason).

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-08-17T20:37:01Z

If there is a consensus for not stabilizing the error code check, I'll just remove the second commit.

alexcrichton · 2017-08-17T22:19:21Z

Has this been discussed for stabilization? Was this discussed with @rust-lang/dev-tools?

I would personally still be against stabilizing error codes, and do we have sufficient documentation to stabilize this feature as well?

kennytm · 2017-08-17T22:29:00Z

cc #42288 for documentation (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md)

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-08-22T11:49:29Z

Ok so I removed the error codes from the stabilization and added the doc for the compile_fail directive (and improved the doc a bit too).

alexcrichton · 2017-08-22T14:30:18Z

Are there any tests for this in the src/test/rustdoc folder? I'd expect that if we had existing tests this'd remove the feature gates from those tests.

alexcrichton · 2017-08-22T14:30:47Z

I'll I'm going to defer to @nrc for review as I think the dev-tools team will want to sign off on this.

r? @nrc

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-08-22T20:12:50Z

The tests are literally all over the docs. Where would you want me to add them?

alexcrichton · 2017-08-22T21:51:39Z

Can you add a unit test for this in src/test/rustdoc to ensure that it doesn't require a feature gate?

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-08-23T07:53:30Z

Sure.

frewsxcv · 2017-08-23T18:57:42Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

why did these get indented?

To be able to see the backticks when rendered.

But that's not the point. The point is to show what happens when you hide a line with #, not to highlight the text differently.

also it caused a travis failure:

[01:04:47] ---- /checkout/src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md - Documentation_tests (line 68) stdout ---- [01:04:47] error: unknown start of token: `

nrc · 2017-08-24T06:36:35Z

I don't think we can yet get an auto-rfc-bot thing for the dev-tools/docs team, so manually. I propose we should accept this (stabilise the flag) - seems like a fairly harmless feature that has not changed in the last 1.5 years and is considered useful by some people.

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-08-24T14:18:05Z

I approve this change.

In the docs team meeting yesterday, we mentioned that it might be prudent to include a note in the documentation stating that "this code doesn't compile" isn't guaranteed to be stable from release to release. Language features like NLL, struct field init shorthand, using a nightly feature without a feature flag (if it's stabilized as-is), etc, can make code that was previously broken start compiling. Making it explicit that some things may change between releases would be helpful in terms of cutting down on "where is this documented" questions.

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-09-01T20:12:39Z

I think I made the changes you required @QuietMisdreavus. Or did I miss anything?

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T14:51:49Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

Note that taking the ignore off of this keeps making the test fail, because it's a doc comment that doesn't document anything.

Erf, good point!

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T14:52:24Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

Still looking for a note here about how things may start compiling in later releases.

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T14:53:54Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

This block doesn't seem related to the rest of this PR? Like, it's worth noting, but it's not part of "making compile_fail stable".

Do you want me to put this change in another commit?

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T20:15:59Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

Light phrasing nit: "However please note that code failing with the current Rust release may work in a future release, as new features are added."

More travis failures

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T21:57:21Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

Don't indent these docblocks. It's treating the ``` as part of the doctest and failing to parse it.

QuietMisdreavus · 2017-09-02T21:58:31Z

src/doc/rustdoc/src/documentation-tests.md

"Documentation comment that doesn't document anything"

Probably good to stick ignore on this one.

GuillaumeGomez · 2017-09-03T14:25:43Z

Finally all good!

Assuming all the stuff from #43949 (comment) is addressed (it appears so), LGTM.
