Remove redundent `to_owned()` and `to_string()` calls by ShaharNaveh · Pull Request #5836 · RustPython/RustPython
Walkthrough
This change uniformly removes unnecessary .to_owned() and similar string ownership conversions from error message strings passed to error constructors throughout the codebase. Instead of creating owned String objects from string literals, string slices are now passed directly, simplifying error message construction without altering logic, control flow, or error handling.
Changes
| File(s) | Change Summary |
|---|---|
| stdlib/src/array.rs, stdlib/src/binascii.rs, ... | Removed .to_owned()/.to_string() from error message strings, passing string slices directly to error constructors throughout all affected modules and files. No logic or control flow changes. |
| vm/src/builtins/asyncgenerator.rs, vm/src/builtins/bool.rs, ... | Same pattern applied to builtins and VM modules: error messages now use string slices instead of owned strings for all error creation calls. |
| vm/src/stdlib/ctypes.rs, vm/src/stdlib/ctypes/base.rs, ... | Uniform simplification of error message construction by eliminating unnecessary string allocations in ctypes and related modules. |
| (All other listed files) | Consistent application of the same refactoring: error messages are passed as string slices, not owned strings, across all modules. |

Poem
A bunny hopped through fields of code,
Snipping.to_owned()where it showed.
Now strings are light, no clones in sight,
Error messages swift as flight!
With every slice, the code feels nice—
Simpler, leaner, pure delight!
