Doesn't eliminate the Variant(litstr) constructor, or the
same/equals/more/less/etc helpers called from comparisons.h;
those will come in a followon diff.
I was learning from @jdelong and he said that you should use
double quotes for local includes and angle brackets for library
includes. I asked why our code was the way it was, and he said he wanted
to clean it up. I beat him to it :)
Conflicts:
hphp/runtime/base/server/admin_request_handler.cpp
hphp/runtime/vm/named_entity.h
This gets rid of the (litstr) StringData and StackStringData
constructors, but keeps String(litstr). Also rename all
the instances of AttachLiteral to CopyString, since they now
mean the same thing.
This is the last step to being able to get rid of the c++ code
gen in hphp. "make -Chphp/system" is now a no-op.
I'll rip out the actual c++ generating code as a separate diff.
This reduces CPU instruction count by about 0.2%, has negligible impact on other metrics. Implementation has been changed a but upon discussion with @mwilliams to account for circular destruction. The question remains open whether this should be in before or after rooting out hphpc, but on the other hand we gotta do what we gotta do to move forward.
This change is mostly for FB internal organizational reasons.
Building is not effected beyond the fact that the target now
lands in hphp/hhvm/hhvm rather than src/hhvm/hhvm.
