Previous type equality was performed with
ptr::eq
. It was nice because rustc is built such that "if two types are equal, then they are the same pointer". This is really good for internal compiler development, this not work well here, because the two types may come from the two versions of the crate we're analyzing (ie:previous::path::to::Type
andnext::path::to::Type
), whichtriggers incorrect modifications in situations such as:This PR fixes this behaviour by adding a custom equality implementation. The idea is simple: if
ptr::eq
returns false, then we check if the two types are ADTs or not. If this is the case, we compare their paths. This solution is maybe not future-proof, but it works well for now. These functions will make easier the handling of other languages items such as struct/enum.Fix #38.
