# Objective
- Many strings in bevy_ecs are created but only used for debug: system
name, component name, ...
- Those strings make a significant part of the final binary and are no
use in a released game
## Solution
- Use [`strings`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/strings) to find ...
strings in a binary
- Try to find where they come from
- Many are made from `type_name::<T>()` and only used in error / debug
messages
- Add a new structure `DebugName` that holds no value if `debug` feature
is disabled
- Replace `core::any::type_name::<T>()` by `DebugName::type_name::<T>()`
## Testing
Measurements were taken without the new feature being enabled by
default, to help with commands

# Objective
- Allow `Query` methods such as `Query::get` to have their error
short-circuited using `?` in systems using Bevy's `Error` type
## Solution
- Removed `UnsafeWorldCell<'w>` from `QueryEntityError` and instead
store `ArchetypeId` (the information the error formatter was extracting
anyway).
- Replaced trait implementations with derives now that the type is
plain-old-data.
## Testing
- CI
---
## Migration Guide
- `QueryEntityError::QueryDoesNotMatch.1` is of type `ArchetypeId`
instead of `UnsafeWorldCell`. It is up to the caller to obtain an
`UnsafeWorldCell` now.
- `QueryEntityError` no longer has a lifetime parameter, remove it from
type signatures where required.
## Notes
This was discussed on Discord and accepted by Cart as the desirable path
forward in [this

# Objective
As discussed in #14275, Bevy is currently too prone to panic, and makes
the easy / beginner-friendly way to do a large number of operations just
to panic on failure.
This is seriously frustrating in library code, but also slows down
development, as many of the `Query::single` panics can actually safely
be an early return (these panics are often due to a small ordering issue
or a change in game state.
More critically, in most "finished" products, panics are unacceptable:
any unexpected failures should be handled elsewhere. That's where the
new
With the advent of good system error handling, we can now remove this.
Note: I was instrumental in a) introducing this idea in the first place
and b) pushing to make the panicking variant the default. The
introduction of both `let else` statements in Rust and the fancy system
error handling work in 0.16 have changed my mind on the right balance
here.
## Solution
1. Make `Query::single` and `Query::single_mut` (and other random
related methods) return a `Result`.
2. Handle all of Bevy's internal usage of these APIs.
3. Deprecate `Query::get_single` and friends, since we've moved their
functionality to the nice names.
4. Add detailed advice on how to best handle these errors.
Generally I like the diff here, although `get_single().unwrap()` in
tests is a bit of a downgrade.
## Testing
I've done a global search for `.single` to track down any missed
deprecated usages.
As to whether or not all the migrations were successful, that's what CI
is for :)
## Future work
~~Rename `Query::get_single` and friends to `Query::single`!~~
~~I've opted not to do this in this PR, and smear it across two releases
in order to ease the migration. Successive deprecations are much easier
to manage than the semantics and types shifting under your feet.~~
Cart has convinced me to change my mind on this; see
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18082#discussion_r1974536085.
## Migration guide
`Query::single`, `Query::single_mut` and their `QueryState` equivalents
now return a `Result`. Generally, you'll want to:
1. Use Bevy 0.16's system error handling to return a `Result` using the
`?` operator.
2. Use a `let else Ok(data)` block to early return if it's an expected
failure.
3. Use `unwrap()` or `Ok` destructuring inside of tests.
The old `Query::get_single` (etc) methods which did this have been
deprecated.
## Objective
There's no general error for when an entity doesn't exist, and some
methods are going to need one when they get Resultified. The closest
thing is `EntityFetchError`, but that error has a slightly more specific
purpose.
## Solution
- Added `EntityDoesNotExistError`.
- Contains `Entity` and `EntityDoesNotExistDetails`.
- Changed `EntityFetchError` and `QueryEntityError`:
- Changed `NoSuchEntity` variant to wrap `EntityDoesNotExistError` and
renamed the variant to `EntityDoesNotExist`.
- Renamed `EntityFetchError` to `EntityMutableFetchError` to make its
purpose clearer.
- Renamed `TryDespawnError` to `EntityDespawnError` to make it more
general.
- Changed `World::inspect_entity` to return `Result<[ok],
EntityDoesNotExistError>` instead of panicking.
- Changed `World::get_entity` and `WorldEntityFetch::fetch_ref` to
return `Result<[ok], EntityDoesNotExistError>` instead of `Result<[ok],
Entity>`.
- Changed `UnsafeWorldCell::get_entity` to return
`Result<UnsafeEntityCell, EntityDoesNotExistError>` instead of
`Option<UnsafeEntityCell>`.
## Migration Guide
- `World::inspect_entity` now returns `Result<impl Iterator<Item =
&ComponentInfo>, EntityDoesNotExistError>` instead of `impl
Iterator<Item = &ComponentInfo>`.
- `World::get_entity` now returns `EntityDoesNotExistError` as an error
instead of `Entity`. You can still access the entity's ID through the
error's `entity` field.
- `UnsafeWorldCell::get_entity` now returns `Result<UnsafeEntityCell,
EntityDoesNotExistError>` instead of `Option<UnsafeEntityCell>`.
# Objective
Simplify the API surface by removing duplicated functionality between
`Query` and `QueryState`.
Reduce the amount of `unsafe` code required in `QueryState`.
This is a follow-up to #15858.
## Solution
Move implementations of `Query` methods from `QueryState` to `Query`.
Instead of the original methods being on `QueryState`, with `Query`
methods calling them by passing the individual parameters, the original
methods are now on `Query`, with `QueryState` methods calling them by
constructing a `Query`.
This also adds two `_inner` methods that were missed in #15858:
`iter_many_unique_inner` and `single_inner`.
One goal here is to be able to deprecate and eventually remove many of
the methods on `QueryState`, reducing the overall API surface. (I
expected to do that in this PR, but this change was large enough on its
own!) Now that the `QueryState` methods each consist of a simple
expression like `self.query(world).get_inner(entity)`, a future PR can
deprecate some or all of them with simple migration instructions.
The other goal is to reduce the amount of `unsafe` code. The current
implementation of a read-only method like `QueryState::get` directly
calls the `unsafe fn get_unchecked_manual` and needs to repeat the proof
that `&World` has enough access. With this change, `QueryState::get` is
entirely safe code, with the proof that `&World` has enough access done
by the `query()` method and shared across all read-only operations.
## Future Work
The next step will be to mark the `QueryState` methods as
`#[deprecated]` and migrate callers to the methods on `Query`.
This pr uses the `extern crate self as` trick to make proc macros behave
the same way inside and outside bevy.
# Objective
- Removes noise introduced by `crate as` in the whole bevy repo.
- Fixes#17004.
- Hardens proc macro path resolution.
## TODO
- [x] `BevyManifest` needs cleanup.
- [x] Cleanup remaining `crate as`.
- [x] Add proper integration tests to the ci.
## Notes
- `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` is written by me and based/inspired by
the old `BevyManifest` implementation and
[`bkchr/proc-macro-crate`](https://github.com/bkchr/proc-macro-crate).
- What do you think about the new integration test machinery I added to
the `ci`?
More and better integration tests can be added at a later stage.
The goal of these integration tests is to simulate an actual separate
crate that uses bevy. Ideally they would lightly touch all bevy crates.
## Testing
- Needs RA test
- Needs testing from other users
- Others need to run at least `cargo run -p ci integration-test` and
verify that they work.

## Objective
The error `EntityFetchError::NoSuchEntity` has an `UnsafeWorldCell`
inside it, which it uses to call
`Entities::entity_does_not_exist_error_details_message` when being
printed. That method returns a `String` that, if the `track_location`
feature is enabled, contains the location of whoever despawned the
relevant entity.
I initially had to modify this error while working on #17043. The
`UnsafeWorldCell` was causing borrow problems when being returned from a
command, so I tried replacing it with the `String` that the method
returns, since that was the world cell's only purpose.
Unfortunately, `String`s are slow, and it significantly impacted
performance (on top of that PR's performance hit):
<details>
<summary>17043 benchmarks</summary>
### With `String`
### No `String`
</details>
For that PR, I just removed the error details entirely, but I figured
I'd try to find a way to keep them around.
## Solution
- Replace the `String` with a helper struct that holds the location, and
only turn it into a string when someone actually wants to print it.
- Replace the `UnsafeWorldCell` with the aforementioned struct.
- Do the same for `QueryEntityError::NoSuchEntity`.
## Benchmarking
This had some interesting performance impact:
<details>
<summary>This PR vs main</summary>
</details>
## Other work
`QueryEntityError::QueryDoesNotMatch` also has an `UnsafeWorldCell`
inside it. This one would be more complicated to rework while keeping
the same functionality.
## Migration Guide
The errors `EntityFetchError::NoSuchEntity` and
`QueryEntityError::NoSuchEntity` now contain an
`EntityDoesNotExistDetails` struct instead of an `UnsafeWorldCell`. If
you were just printing these, they should work identically.

# Background
In `no_std` compatible crates, there is often an `std` feature which
will allow access to the standard library. Currently, with the `std`
feature _enabled_, the
[`std::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/prelude/index.html) is
implicitly imported in all modules. With the feature _disabled_, instead
the [`core::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/prelude/index.html)
is implicitly imported. This creates a subtle and pervasive issue where
`alloc` items _may_ be implicitly included (if `std` is enabled), or
must be explicitly included (if `std` is not enabled).
# Objective
- Make the implicit imports for `no_std` crates consistent regardless of
what features are/not enabled.
## Solution
- Replace the `cfg_attr` "double negative" `no_std` attribute with
conditional compilation to _include_ `std` as an external crate.
```rust
// Before
#![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std)]
// After
#![no_std]
#[cfg(feature = "std")]
extern crate std;
```
- Fix imports that are currently broken but are only now visible with
the above fix.
## Testing
- CI
## Notes
I had previously used the "double negative" version of `no_std` based on
general consensus that it was "cleaner" within the Rust embedded
community. However, this implicit prelude issue likely was considered
when forming this consensus. I believe the reason why is the items most
affected by this issue are provided by the `alloc` crate, which is
rarely used within embedded but extensively used within Bevy.
# Objective
Expand `track_change_detection` feature to also track entity spawns and
despawns. Use this to create better error messages.
# Solution
Adds `Entities::entity_get_spawned_or_despawned_by` as well as `{all
entity reference types}::spawned_by`.
This also removes the deprecated `get_many_entities_mut` & co (and
therefore can't land in 0.15) because we don't yet have no Polonius.
## Testing
Added a test that checks that the locations get updated and these
updates are ordered correctly vs hooks & observers.
---
## Showcase
Access location:
```rust
let mut world = World::new();
let entity = world.spawn_empty().id();
println!("spawned by: {}", world.entity(entity).spawned_by());
```
```
spawned by: src/main.rs:5:24
```
Error message (with `track_change_detection`):
```rust
world.despawn(entity);
world.entity(entity);
```
```
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:11:11:
Entity 0v1#4294967296 was despawned by src/main.rs:10:11
```
and without:
```
thread 'main' panicked at src/main.rs:11:11:
Entity 0v1#4294967296 does not exist (enable `track_change_detection` feature for more details)
```
Similar error messages now also exists for `Query::get`,
`World::entity_mut`, `EntityCommands` creation and everything that
causes `B0003`, e.g.
```
error[B0003]: Could not insert a bundle (of type `MaterialMeshBundle<StandardMaterial>`) for entity Entity { index: 7, generation: 1 }, which was despawned by src/main.rs:10:11. See: https://bevyengine.org/learn/errors/#b0003
```

# Objective
- Remove `derive_more`'s error derivation and replace it with
`thiserror`
## Solution
- Added `derive_more`'s `error` feature to `deny.toml` to prevent it
sneaking back in.
- Reverted to `thiserror` error derivation
## Notes
Merge conflicts were too numerous to revert the individual changes, so
this reversion was done manually. Please scrutinise carefully during
review.
Use the new `disqualified` crate in `QueryEntityError` to make the error
message more readable.

# Objective
- Fixes#6370
- Closes#6581
## Solution
- Added the following lints to the workspace:
- `std_instead_of_core`
- `std_instead_of_alloc`
- `alloc_instead_of_core`
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [item level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Item%5C%3A)
to split all `use` statements into single items.
- Used `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --all-features --fix
--allow-dirty` to _attempt_ to resolve the new linting issues, and
intervened where the lint was unable to resolve the issue automatically
(usually due to needing an `extern crate alloc;` statement in a crate
root).
- Manually removed certain uses of `std` where negative feature gating
prevented `--all-features` from finding the offending uses.
- Used `cargo +nightly fmt` with [crate level use
formatting](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustfmt/?version=v1.6.0&search=#Crate%5C%3A)
to re-merge all `use` statements matching Bevy's previous styling.
- Manually fixed cases where the `fmt` tool could not re-merge `use`
statements due to conditional compilation attributes.
## Testing
- Ran CI locally
## Migration Guide
The MSRV is now 1.81. Please update to this version or higher.
## Notes
- This is a _massive_ change to try and push through, which is why I've
outlined the semi-automatic steps I used to create this PR, in case this
fails and someone else tries again in the future.
- Making this change has no impact on user code, but does mean Bevy
contributors will be warned to use `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
where possible.
- This lint is a critical first step towards investigating `no_std`
options for Bevy.

# Objective
Make it easier to debug why an entity doesn't match a query.
## Solution
List the entities components in `QueryEntityError::QueryDoesNotMatch`'s
message, e.g. `The query does not match the entity 0v1, which has
components foo::Bar, foo::Baz`.
This covers most cases as expected components are typically known and
filtering for change detection is rare when assessing a query by entity
id.
## Testing
Added a test confirming the new message matches the entity's components.
## Migration Guide
- `QueryEntityError` now has a lifetime. Convert it to a custom error if
you need to store it.

# Objective
We deprecated quite a few APIs in 0.13. 0.13 has shipped already. It
should be OK to remove them in 0.14's release. Fixes#4059. Fixes#9011.
## Solution
Remove them.
# Objective
Align all error-like types to implement `Error`.
Fixes #10176
## Solution
- Derive `Error` on more types
- Refactor instances of manual implementations that could be derived
This adds thiserror as a dependency to bevy_transform, which might
increase compilation time -- but I don't know of any situation where you
might only use that but not any other crate that pulls in bevy_utils.
The `contributors` example has a `LoadContributorsError` type, but as
it's an example I have not updated it. Doing that would mean either
having a `use bevy_internal::utils::thiserror::Error;` in an example
file, or adding `thiserror` as a dev-dependency to the main `bevy`
crate.
---
## Changelog
- All `…Error` types now implement the `Error` trait
# Objective
- Fixes#9683
## Solution
- Moved `get_component` from `Query` to `QueryState`.
- Moved `get_component_unchecked_mut` from `Query` to `QueryState`.
- Moved `QueryComponentError` from `bevy_ecs::system` to
`bevy_ecs::query`. Minor Breaking Change.
- Narrowed scope of `unsafe` blocks in `Query` methods.
---
## Migration Guide
- `use bevy_ecs::system::QueryComponentError;` -> `use
bevy_ecs::query::QueryComponentError;`
## Notes
I am not very familiar with unsafe Rust nor its use within Bevy, so I
may have committed a Rust faux pas during the migration.
