proc_macro - Rust (original) (raw)
Crate proc_macro
1.15.0 ยท Source
Expand description
A support library for macro authors when defining new macros.
This library, provided by the standard distribution, provides the types consumed in the interfaces of procedurally defined macro definitions such as function-like macros #[proc_macro], macro attributes #[proc_macro_attribute] and custom derive attributes#[proc_macro_derive].
See the book for more.
Public implementation details for the TokenStream type, such as iterators.
tracked_envExperimental
Tracked access to environment variables.
tracked_pathExperimental
Tracked access to additional files.
quoteExperimental
quote!(..) accepts arbitrary tokens and expands into a TokenStream describing the input. For example, quote!(a + b) will produce an expression, that, when evaluated, constructs the TokenStream [Ident("a"), Punct('+', Alone), Ident("b")].
A delimited token stream.
An identifier (ident).
Error returned from TokenStream::from_str.
A literal string ("hello"), byte string (b"hello"), C string (c"hello"), character ('a'), byte character (b'a'), an integer or floating point number with or without a suffix (1, 1u8, 2.3, 2.3f32). Boolean literals like true and false do not belong here, they are Idents.
A Punct is a single punctuation character such as +, - or #.
A region of source code, along with macro expansion information.
The main type provided by this crate, representing an abstract stream of tokens, or, more specifically, a sequence of token trees. The type provides interfaces for iterating over those token trees and, conversely, collecting a number of token trees into one stream.
DiagnosticExperimental
A structure representing a diagnostic message and associated children messages.
ExpandErrorExperimental
Error returned from TokenStream::expand_expr.
SourceFileExperimental
The source file of a given Span.
Describes how a sequence of token trees is delimited.
Indicates whether a Punct token can join with the following token to form a multi-character operator.
A single token or a delimited sequence of token trees (e.g., [1, (), ..]).
LevelExperimental
An enum representing a diagnostic level.
MultiSpanExperimental
Trait implemented by types that can be converted into a set of Spans.
ToTokensExperimental
Types that can be interpolated inside a quote! invocation.
Determines whether proc_macro has been made accessible to the currently running program.
quoteExperimental
Quote a TokenStream into a TokenStream. This is the actual implementation of the quote!() proc macro.
quote_spanExperimental
Quote a Span into a TokenStream. This is needed to implement a custom quoter.
