Streamline internal String creation. Previously, everything funneled
into a single generic function, however, every single call of the
generic funnel had relevant specific information that could be used
for a more efficient algorithm.
In preparation for efficiently forming small strings, refactor this
logic into a handful of more specialized subroutines to preserve more
specific information from the callers.
Include the initial implementation of _StringGuts, a 2-word
replacement for _LegacyStringCore. 64-bit Darwin supported, 32-bit and
Linux support in subsequent commits.
This necessary for ensuring the property that String doesn't keep
inaccessible memory alive. For example, before this change,
String(s.dropFirst().unicodeScalars)
would compile and produce a String that owned inaccessible memory.
Now it no longer compiles.
String's view's SubSequences are the same as the Substring's
view. E.g. String.UnicodeScalarView.SubSequence is
Substring.UnicodeScalarView.
New compatibility inits added, to work around the fact that many
previously failable initializers are now non-failable.
This is a step along the way toward handling backward-compatiblity of UTF8View
slicing and preventing inadvertent creation of String instances that keep
inaccessible memory alive.
I failed to merge the upstream changes to swift-corelibs-foundation at the same
time as I merged that #9806, and it broke on linux. Going to get it right this
time.
* [Type System] Handle raw pointer conversion.
As proposed in SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer.
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0107-unsaferawpointer.md#implicit-argument-conversion
UnsafeMutablePointer<T> -> UnsafeMutableRawPointer
UnsafeMutablePointer<T> -> UnsafeRawPointer
UnsafePointer<T> -> UnsafeRawPointer
UnsafeMutableRawPointer -> UnsafeRawPointer
inout:
&anyVar -> UnsafeMutableRawPointer
&anyVar -> UnsafeRawPointer
array -> UnsafeRawPointer
string -> UnsafeRawPointer
varArray -> UnsafeMutableRawPointer
* Rename expectEqual(_, _, sameValue:) to expectEqualTest to workaround a type system bug.
<rdar://26058520> Generic type constraints incorrectly applied to functions with the same name
This is exposed by additions to the type system for UnsafeRawPointer.
Warning: unit tests fail very confusingly without this fix.
We were using a precondition which crashes the program when invalid input is
provided. We want to provide a way to gracefully check and handle invalid input
or shutdown the program if necessary.
SR-1930
- Remove free Swift functions for advance and distance and replace
them with protocol extension methods:
- advancedBy(n)
- advancedBy(n, limit:)
- distanceTo(end)
- Modernize the Index tests
- Use StdlibUnittest
- Test for custom implementation dispatch
Perf impact: No significant changes reported in the
Swift Performance Measurement Tool.

Swift SVN r30958
The way we pass and compose source locations, messages, etc. needs to be
brought under control before too many more tests get written. This is
the first step.
