* remove @cmpxchg, add @cmpxchgWeak and @cmpxchgStrong
- See explanations in the langref.
* add operand type as first parameter
* return type is ?T where T is the operand type
closes#461
Changes:
- Removed superfluous "when possible"
- Fixed typo in "documentationt"
- Added missing comma
- Moved definition of error union type up to first sentence
* instead of `async(allocator) call()`, now it is
`async<allocator> call()`.
* Fixes syntax ambiguity when leaving off the allocator
* Fixes parse failure when call is a field access
This sets a precedent for using `<` to pass arguments
to a keyword. This will affect `enum`, `union`, and
`fn` (see #661)
- No overscrolling on small screens
- Font-size is reduced for more content per screen
- Tables + Code blocks scroll within a block to avoid page-widenening
The purpose of this is:
* Only one way to do things
* Changing a function with void return type to return a possible
error becomes a 1 character change, subtly encouraging
people to use errors.
See #632
Here are some imperfect sed commands for performing this update:
remove arrow:
```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\)-> /\1/g' $(find . -name "*.zig")
```
add void:
```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\))\s*{/\1) void {/g' $(find ../ -name "*.zig")
```
Some cleanup may be necessary, but this should do the bulk of the work.
* docgen supports obj_err code kind for demonstrating
errors without explicit test cases
* add documentation for `extern enum`. See #367
* remove coldcc keyword and add @setIsCold. See #661
* add compile errors for non-extern struct, enum, unions
in function signatures
* add .h file generation for extern struct, enum, unions
* error return tracing is disabled in release-fast mode
* add @errorReturnTrace
* zig build API changes build return type from `void` to `%void`
* allow `void`, `noreturn`, and `u8` from main. closes#535
