crate to not be linked to the + standard library, but only the [core library][1.6co], as described + in [RFC 1184]. The core library defines common types and traits but + has no platform dependencies whatsoever, and is the basis for Rust + software in environments that cannot support a full port of the + standard library, such as operating systems. Most of the core + library is now stable. + +Libraries +--------- + +* Stabilized APIs: + [`Read::read_exact`], + [`ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof`][] (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`), + [`fs::DirBuilder`], [`fs::DirBuilder::new`], + [`fs::DirBuilder::recursive`], [`fs::DirBuilder::create`], + [`os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt`], + [`os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt::mode`], [`vec::Drain`], + [`vec::Vec::drain`], [`string::Drain`], [`string::String::drain`], + [`vec_deque::Drain`], [`vec_deque::VecDeque::drain`], + [`collections::hash_map::Drain`], + [`collections::hash_map::HashMap::drain`], + [`collections::hash_set::Drain`], + [`collections::hash_set::HashSet::drain`], + [`collections::binary_heap::Drain`], + [`collections::binary_heap::BinaryHeap::drain`], + [`Vec::extend_from_slice`][] (renamed from `push_all`), + [`Mutex::get_mut`], [`Mutex::into_inner`], [`RwLock::get_mut`], + [`RwLock::into_inner`], + [`Iterator::min_by_key`][] (renamed from `min_by`), + [`Iterator::max_by_key`][] (renamed from `max_by`). +* The [core library][1.6co] is stable, as are most of its APIs. +* [The `assert_eq!` macro supports arguments that don't implement + `Sized`][1.6ae], such as arrays. In this way it behaves more like + `assert!`. +* Several timer functions that take duration in milliseconds [are + deprecated in favor of those that take `Duration`][1.6ms]. These + include `Condvar::wait_timeout_ms`, `thread::sleep_ms`, and + `thread::park_timeout_ms`. +* The algorithm by which `Vec` reserves additional elements was + [tweaked to not allocate excessive space][1.6a] while still growing + exponentially. +* `From` conversions are [implemented from integers to floats][1.6f] + in cases where the conversion is lossless. Thus they are not + implemented for 32-bit ints to `f32`, nor for 64-bit ints to `f32` + or `f64`. They are also not implemented for `isize` and `usize` + because the implementations would be platform-specific. `From` is + also implemented from `f32` to `f64`. +* `From<&Path>` and `From` are implemented for `Cow`. +* `From` is implemented for `Box`, `Rc` and `Arc`. +* `IntoIterator` is implemented for `&PathBuf` and `&Path`. +* [`BinaryHeap` was refactored][1.6bh] for modest performance + improvements. +* Sorting slices that are already sorted [is 50% faster in some + cases][1.6s]. + +Cargo +----- + +* Cargo will look in `$CARGO_HOME/bin` for subcommands [by default][1.6c]. +* Cargo build scripts can specify their dependencies by emitting the + [`rerun-if-changed`][1.6rr] key. +* crates.io will reject publication of crates with dependencies that + have a wildcard version constraint. Crates with wildcard + dependencies were seen to cause a variety of problems, as described + in [RFC 1241]. Since 1.5 publication of such crates has emitted a + warning. +* `cargo clean` [accepts a `--release` flag][1.6cc] to clean the + release folder. A variety of artifacts that Cargo failed to clean + are now correctly deleted. + +Misc +---- + +* The `unreachable_code` lint [warns when a function call's argument + diverges][1.6dv]. +* The parser indicates [failures that may be caused by + confusingly-similar Unicode characters][1.6uc] +* Certain macro errors [are reported at definition time][1.6m], not + expansion. + +Compatibility Notes +------------------- + +* The compiler no longer makes use of the [`RUST_PATH`][1.6rp] + environment variable when locating crates. This was a pre-cargo + feature for integrating with the package manager that was + accidentally never removed. +* [A number of bugs were fixed in the privacy checker][1.6p] that + could cause previously-accepted code to break. +* [Modules and unit/tuple structs may not share the same name][1.6ts]. +* [Bugs in pattern matching unit structs were fixed][1.6us]. The tuple + struct pattern syntax (`Foo(..)`) can no longer be used to match + unit structs. This is a warning now, but will become an error in + future releases.
