Attempting to bypass the compiler and access runtime functions directly has
a long history of breaking in hard-to-predict ways, and there's usually a better
way. Put up a warning to try to flush out misuses of runtime functions to see
if we can turn this into an error.
* One-sided ranges and RangeExpression
* Remove redundant ClosedRange methods from String
* Fix up brittle tests
* Account for Substring update
* XFAIL range diagnostics on Linux
* Migrate from `UnsafePointer<Void>` to `UnsafeRawPointer`.
As proposed in SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer.
`void*` imports as `UnsafeMutableRawPointer`.
`const void*` imports as `UnsafeRawPointer`.
Occurrences of `UnsafePointer<Void>` are replaced with UnsafeRawPointer.
* Migrate overlays from UnsafePointer<Void> to UnsafeRawPointer.
This requires explicit memory binding in several places,
particularly in NSData and CoreAudio.
* Fix a bunch of test cases for Void->Raw migration.
* qsort takes IUO values
* Bridge `Unsafe[Mutable]RawPointer as `void [const] *`.
* Parse #dsohandle as UnsafeMutableRawPointer
* Update a bunch of test cases for Void->Raw migration.
* Trivial fix for the SceneKit test case.
* Add an UnsafeRawPointer self initializer.
This is unfortunately necessary for assignment between types imported from C.
* Tiny simplification of the initializer.
What I've implemented here deviates from the current proposal text
in the following ways:
- I had to introduce a FunctionArrowPrecedence to capture the parsing
of -> in expression contexts.
- I found it convenient to continue to model the assignment property
explicitly.
- The comparison and casting operators have historically been
non-associative; I have chosen to preserve that, since I don't
think this proposal intended to change it.
- This uses the precedence group names and higherThan/lowerThan
as agreed in discussion.

Allow 'static' (or, in classes, final 'class') operators to be
declared within types and extensions thereof. Within protocols,
require operators to be marked 'static'. Use a warning with a Fix-It
to stage this in, so we don't break the world's code.
Protocol conformance checking already seems to work, so add some tests
for that. Update a pile of tests and the standard library to include
the required 'static' keywords.
There is an amusing name-mangling change here. Global operators were
getting marked as 'static' (for silly reasons), so their mangled names
had the 'Z' modifier for static methods, even though this doesn't make
sense. Now, operators within types and extensions need to be 'static'
as written.
Implements SE-0055: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0055-optional-unsafe-pointers.md
- Add NULL as an extra inhabitant of Builtin.RawPointer (currently
hardcoded to 0 rather than being target-dependent).
- Import non-object pointers as Optional/IUO when nullable/null_unspecified
(like everything else).
- Change the type checker's *-to-pointer conversions to handle a layer of
optional.
- Use 'AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSError?>?' as the type of error
parameters exported to Objective-C.
- Drop NilLiteralConvertible conformance for all pointer types.
- Update the standard library and then all the tests.
I've decided to leave this commit only updating existing tests; any new
tests will come in the following commits. (That may mean some additional
implementation work to follow.)
The other major piece that's missing here is migration. I'm hoping we get
a lot of that with Swift 1.1's work for optional object references, but
I still need to investigate.
This reflects the fact that the attribute's only for compiler-internal use, and isn't really equivalent to C's asm attribute, since it doesn't change the calling convention to be C-compatible.
Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

The syntax being reverted added busywork and noise to the common case
where you want to say "I have the right address, but the wrong type,"
without adding any real safety.
Also it eliminated the ability to write UnsafePointer<T>(otherPointer),
without adding ".self" to T. Overall, it was not a win.
This reverts commits r21324 and r21342
Swift SVN r21424
Previously, it was possible to write Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer(x) and have
Swift deduce the pointee type based on context. Since reinterpreting
memory is a fundamentally type-unsafe operation, it's better to be
explicit about conversions from Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<T> to
Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<U>. This change is consistent with the move from
reinterpretCast(x) to unsafeBitCast(x, T.self).
Also, we've encoded the operations of explicitly adding or removing
mutability as properties, so that adding mutability can be separated
from wild reinterpretCast'ing, a much more severe form of unsafety.

modifiers and with the func implementations of the operators. This resolves the rest of:
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
Swift SVN r19931
We haven't been advertising this syntax much, and it's closure form
was completely broken anyway, so don't jump through hoops to provide
great Fix-Its here.
