* `zig test` gainst `--test-evented-io` parameter and gains the ability
to seamlessly run async tests.
* `std.ChildProcess` opens its child process pipe with O_NONBLOCK when
using evented I/O
* `std.io.getStdErr()` gives a File that is blocking even in evented
I/O mode.
* Delete `std.event.fs`. The functionality is now merged into `std.fs`
and async file system access (using a dedicated thread) is
automatically handled.
* `std.fs.File` can be configured to specify whether its handle is
expected to block, and whether that is OK to block even when in
async I/O mode. This makes async I/O work correctly for e.g. the
file system as well as network.
* `std.fs.File` has some deprecated functions removed.
* Missing readv,writev,pread,pwrite,preadv,pwritev functions are added
to `std.os` and `std.fs.File`. They are all integrated with async
I/O.
* `std.fs.Watch` is still bit rotted and needs to be audited in light
of the new async/await syntax.
* `std.io.OutStream` integrates with async I/O
* linked list nodes in the std lib have default `null` values for
`prev` and `next`.
* Windows async I/O integration is enabled for reading/writing file
handles.
* Added `std.os.mode_t`. Integer sizes need to be audited.
* Fixed#4403 which was causing compiler to crash.
This is working towards:
./zig test ../test/stage1/behavior.zig --test-evented-io
Which does not successfully build yet. I'd like to enable behavioral
tests and std lib tests with --test-evented-io in the test matrix in the
future, to prevent regressions.
These were never working with native CPU features. In this branch,
we fix native CPU features not being enabled on Windows, and regress
f128 language features. In the llvm10 branch, all this is fixed,
and the tests are re-enabled.
Use a struct as second parameter to be future proof (and also allows to
specify default values for the parameters)
Closes#2679 as it was just a matter of a few lines of code.
Previously, the compiler had special logic to determine whether to
include the startup code, which was in `std/special/start.zig`. Now,
the file is moved to `std/start.zig`, and there is no special logic
in the compiler. Instead, the standard library unconditionally imports
the `start.zig` file, which then has a `comptime` block that does the
logic of determining what, if any, start symbols to export. Instead of
`start.zig` being in its own special package, it is just another normal
file that is part of the standard library.
`std.builtin.TestFn` is now part of the standard library rather than
specially generated by the compiler.
