Jonathan S f58a8c9d76 Provide an implementation of DoubleEndedIterator for the results of &[T]::split and &[T]::rsplit This makes the splitting functions in std::slice return DoubleEndedIterators. Unfortunately, splitn and rsplitn cannot provide such an interface and so must return different types. As a result, the following changes were made: * RevSplits was removed in favor of explicitly using Rev * Splits can no longer bound the number of splits done * Splits now implements DoubleEndedIterator * SplitsN was added, taking the role of what both Splits and RevSplits used to be * rsplit returns Rev<Splits<'a, T>> instead of RevSplits<'a, T> * splitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of Splits<'a, T> * rsplitn returns SplitsN<'a, T> instead of RevSplits<'a, T> All functions that were previously implemented on each return value still are, so outside of changing of type annotations, existing code should work out of the box. In the rare case that code relied on the return types of split and splitn or of rsplit and rsplitn being the same, the previous behavior can be emulated by calling splitn or rsplitn with a bount of uint::MAX. The value of this change comes in multiple parts: * Consistency. The splitting code in std::str is structured similarly to the new slice splitting code, having separate CharSplits and CharSplitsN types. * Smaller API. Although this commit doesn't implement it, using a DoubleEndedIterator for splitting means that rsplit, path::RevComponents, path::RevStrComponents, Path::rev_components, and Path::rev_str_components are no longer needed - they can be emulated simply with .rev(). * Power. DoubleEndedIterators are able to traverse the list from both sides at once instead of only forwards or backwards. * Efficiency. For the common case of using split instead of splitn, the iterator is slightly smaller and slightly faster. [breaking-change]		2014-04-28 16:45:36 -05:00

The Rust Programming Language

This is a compiler for Rust, including standard libraries, tools and documentation.

Quick Start

Download a binary installer for your platform.
Read the tutorial.
Enjoy!

Note: Windows users can read the detailed getting started notes on the wiki.

Building from Source

Make sure you have installed the dependencies:
- g++ 4.4 or clang++ 3.x
- python 2.6 or later (but not 3.x)
- perl 5.0 or later
- GNU make 3.81 or later
- curl
- git
Download and build Rust:

You can either download a tarball or build directly from the repo.

To build from the tarball do:
```
 $ curl -O http://static.rust-lang.org/dist/rust-nightly.tar.gz
 $ tar -xzf rust-nightly.tar.gz
 $ cd rust-nightly
```
Or to build from the repo do:
```
 $ git clone https://github.com/mozilla/rust.git
 $ cd rust
```
Now that you have Rust's source code, you can configure and build it:
```
 $ ./configure
 $ make && make install
```
Note: You may need to use sudo make install if you do not normally have permission to modify the destination directory. The install locations can be adjusted by passing a --prefix argument to configure. Various other options are also supported, pass --help for more information on them.

When complete, make install will place several programs into /usr/local/bin: rustc, the Rust compiler, and rustdoc, the API-documentation tool. system.
Read the tutorial.
Enjoy!

Notes

Since the Rust compiler is written in Rust, it must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version of itself (made in an earlier state of development). As such, source builds require a connection to the Internet, to fetch snapshots, and an OS that can execute the available snapshot binaries.

Snapshot binaries are currently built and tested on several platforms:

Windows (7, 8, Server 2008 R2), x86 only
Linux (2.6.18 or later, various distributions), x86 and x86-64
OSX 10.7 (Lion) or greater, x86 and x86-64

You may find that other platforms work, but these are our officially supported build environments that are most likely to work.

Rust currently needs about 1.5 GiB of RAM to build without swapping; if it hits swap, it will take a very long time to build.

There is a lot more documentation in the wiki.
