Version 1.28.0 (2018-08-02)
===========================
Language
--------
- [Stabilised the `#[repr(transparent)]` attribute.][51562] This attribute
allows a Rust newtype wrapper (`struct NewType<T>(T);`) to be represented as
the inner type across Foreign Function Interface (FFI) boundaries.
- [The keywords `pure`, `sizeof`, `alignof`, and `offsetof` have been unreserved
and can now be used as identifiers.][51196]
- [Stabilised the `GlobalAlloc` trait and `#[global_allocator]`
attribute.][51241] This will allow users to specify a global allocator for
their program.
- [Unit test functions marked with the `#[test]` attribute can now return
`Result<(), E: Debug>` in addition to `()`.][51298]
- [Stabilised a `lifetime` specifier to `macro_rules!` allowing macros to easily
target lifetimes.][50385]
Compiler
--------
- [Stabilised the `s` and `z` optimisation levels.][50265] These optimisations
prioritise making smaller binary sizes. `z` is the same as `s` with the
exception that it does not vectorise loops, which typically results in an even
smaller binary.
- [Stabilised the short error format.][49546] Specified with
`--error-format=short` this option will provide a more compressed output of
rust error messages.
- [Added a lint warning when you have duplicated `macro_export`s.][50143]
- [Reduced the number of allocations in the macro parser.][50855] This can
improve compile times of macro heavy crates on average by 5%.
Libraries
---------
- [Implemented `Default` for `&mut str`.][51306]
- [Implemented `From<bool>` for all integer and unsigned number types.][50554]
- [Implemented `Extend` for `()`.][50234]
- [The `Debug` implementation of `time::Duration` should now be more easily
human readable.][50364] Previously a `Duration` of one second would printed as
`Duration { secs: 1, nanos: 0 }` will now be printed as `1s`.
- [Implemented `From<&String>` for `Cow<str>`, `From<&Vec<T>>` for `Cow<[T]>`,
`From<Cow<CStr>>` for `CString`, `From<CString>, From<CStr>, From<&CString>`
for `Cow<CStr>`, `From<OsString>, From<OsStr>, From<&OsString>` for
`Cow<OsStr>`, `From<&PathBuf>` for `Cow<Path>`, and `From<Cow<Path>>`
for `PathBuf`.][50170]
- [`DirEntry::metadata` now uses `fstatat` instead of `lstat` when
possible.][51050] This can provide up to a 40% speed increase.
- [Improved error messages when using `format!`.][50610]

- [`num::NonZeroU16`]
- [`num::NonZeroU32`]
- [`num::NonZeroU64`]
- [`num::NonZeroU8`]
- [`ops::RangeBounds`]

- [`{Any + Send + Sync}::downcast_mut`]
- [`{Any + Send + Sync}::downcast_ref`]
- [`{Any + Send + Sync}::is`]
Cargo
-----
- [Cargo will now no longer allow you to publish crates with build scripts that
modify the `src` directory.][5584] The `src` directory in a crate should be
considered to be immutable.
Misc
----
- [Stabilised the `suggestion_applicability` field in the json output.][50486]
This will allow dev tools to check whether a code suggestion would apply
to them.
Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Rust will no longer consider trait objects with duplicated constraints to
have implementations.][51276] For example the below code will now fail
to compile.
```rust
trait Trait {}
impl Trait + Send {
fn test(&self) { println!("one"); } //~ ERROR duplicate definitions with name `test`
}
impl Trait + Send + Send {
fn test(&self) { println!("two"); }
}
```
