I'm trying to knock off some small bugs that have been lingering for a
while. One of them is a change to the "capture clause" syntax, as
described here:
https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/2096
Basically the capture clause becomes integrated into the parameter
list. The main motivation for this is that it integrates well with the
sugared closure syntax. So you can write:
let x = ~3;
task::spawn { |move x|
// use x in here
}
In effect, a "parameter" that looks like `copy x` or `move y`
copies/moves the local variable out of the environment into the
closure. It's also good for multi-line function definitions, I think:
let a_fn = fn@(
x: T1,
y: T2,
copy w, move z) {
...
};
I implemented this but wanted to do a final check before pushing to see
if anyone had any objections.
Niko
