"const_str" is a very confusing name since
const
has a meaning in Rust and it's not this. We have very deliberately called the intrinsicis_val_statically_known
, notis_val_const
or anything like that. Would be nice if the functions using that intrinsic would follow the same pattern. :)There was a problem hiding this comment.

Yes, that would be better IMO. (I'm also open to suggestions for a shorter term that captures this, but "constant" is too misleading IMO. In Rust, whether something is a "constant" is a language guarantee, and we have things like
const fn
that relate to that. In contrast, "statically known" is a very unstable notion depending on tons of factors that impact how good the compiler is able to analyze some piece of code. Also,const fn
is not the same meaning of "const" as in "constant propagation" -- a common misconception that the standard library should not perpetuate. :)
