Version 1.39.0 (2019-11-07)
===========================

Language
--------
- [You can now create `async` functions and blocks with `async fn`, `async move {}`, and
`async {}` respectively, and you can now call `.await` on async expressions.][63209]
- [You can now use certain attributes on function, closure, and function pointer
parameters.][64010] These attributes include `cfg`, `cfg_attr`, `allow`, `warn`,
`deny`, `forbid` as well as inert helper attributes used by procedural macro
attributes applied to items. e.g.
```rust
fn len(
#[cfg(windows)] slice: &[u16],
#[cfg(not(windows))] slice: &[u8],
) -> usize {
slice.len()
}
```
- [You can now take shared references to bind-by-move patterns in the `if` guards
of `match` arms.][63118] e.g.
```rust
fn main() {
let array: Box<[u8; 4]> = Box::new([1, 2, 3, 4]);

match array {
nums
// ---- `nums` is bound by move.
if nums.iter().sum::<u8>() == 10
// ^------ `.iter()` implicitly takes a reference to `nums`.
=> {
drop(nums);
// ----------- Legal as `nums` was bound by move and so we have ownership.
}
_ => unreachable!(),
}
}
```



Compiler
--------
- [Added tier 3\* support for the `i686-unknown-uefi` target.][64334]
- [Added tier 3 support for the `sparc64-unknown-openbsd` target.][63595]
- [rustc will now trim code snippets in diagnostics to fit in your terminal.][63402]
**Note** Cargo currently doesn't use this feature. Refer to
[cargo#7315][cargo/7315] to track this feature's progress.
- [You can now pass `--show-output` argument to test binaries to print the
output of successful tests.][62600]


\* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][forge-platform-support] for more
information on Rust's tiered platform support.

Libraries
---------
- [`Vec::new` and `String::new` are now `const` functions.][64028]
- [`LinkedList::new` is now a `const` function.][63684]
- [`str::len`, `[T]::len` and `str::as_bytes` are now `const` functions.][63770]
- [The `abs`, `wrapping_abs`, and `overflowing_abs` numeric functions are
now `const`.][63786]

Stabilized APIs
---------------
- [`Pin::into_inner`]
- [`Instant::checked_duration_since`]
- [`Instant::saturating_duration_since`]

Cargo
-----
- [You can now publish git dependencies if supplied with a `version`.][cargo/7237]
- [The `--all` flag has been renamed to `--workspace`.][cargo/7241] Using
`--all` is now deprecated.

Misc
----
- [You can now pass `-Clinker` to rustdoc to control the linker used
for compiling doctests.][63834]

Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Code that was previously accepted by the old borrow checker, but rejected by
the NLL borrow checker is now a hard error in Rust 2018.][63565] This was
previously a warning, and will also become a hard error in the Rust 2015
edition in the 1.40.0 release.
- [`rustdoc` now requires `rustc` to be installed and in the same directory to
run tests.][63827] This should improve performance when running a large
amount of doctests.
- [The `try!` macro will now issue a deprecation warning.][62672] It is
recommended to use the `?` operator instead.
- [`asinh(-0.0)` now correctly returns `-0.0`.][63698] Previously this
returned `0.0`.
