do-while loops in Rust

blackmagic.rs

while {
    let x = foo();
    bar(x);

    x != 0
} {}

This is an ancient thread but I thought I'd share a trick from my first rust project -- it's crazy that this still doesn't exist in stable rust (and I haven't found any mention of it in the nightly book).

macro_rules! run {
    ($x:block until $y:expr) => {{
        while {
            $x;
            !$y
            } {}
    }};
    ($x:block if_still $y:expr) => {{
        while {
            $x;
            $y
            } {}
    }};
}

Additionally, I think keyword! should be parsed seperately to keyword, so you could write this as do! while! without the compiler complaining.

(Should note that I never ended up using this macro because it was too ugly in use, so take from that what you will)

really helps porting javascript . thanks
