source_map

The SourceMap tracks all the source code used within a single crate, mapping from integer byte positions to the original source code location. Each bit of source parsed during crate parsing (typically files, in-memory strings, or various bits of macro expansion) cover a continuous range of bytes in the SourceMap and are represented by SourceFiles. Byte positions are stored in Span and used pervasively in the compiler. They are absolute positions within the SourceMap, which upon request can be converted to line and column information, source code snippets, etc.

symbol

An "interner" is a data structure that associates values with usize tags and allows bidirectional lookup; i.e., given a value, one can easily find the type, and vice versa.

Structs

BytePos

A byte offset. Keep this small (currently 32-bits), as AST contains a lot of them.

CachingSourceMapView
CharPos

A character offset. Because of multibyte UTF-8 characters, a byte offset is not equivalent to a character offset. The SourceMap will convert BytePos values to CharPos values as necessary.

DistinctSources
FileLines
Globals
InnerSpan

Range inside of a Span used for diagnostics when we only have access to relative positions.

LineInfo
Loc

A source code location used for error reporting.

MacroBacktrace
MalformedSourceMapPositions
MultiByteChar

Identifies an offset of a multi-byte character in a SourceFile.

MultiSpan

A collection of spans. Spans have two orthogonal attributes:

NormalizedPos

Identifies an offset of a character that was normalized away from SourceFile.

OffsetOverflowError
SourceFile

A single source in the SourceMap.

SourceFileAndBytePos
SourceFileAndLine
Span

A compressed span.

SpanData

Spans represent a region of code, used for error reporting. Positions in spans are absolute positions from the beginning of the source_map, not positions relative to SourceFiles. Methods on the SourceMap can be used to relate spans back to the original source. You must be careful if the span crosses more than one file - you will not be able to use many of the functions on spans in source_map and you cannot assume that the length of the span = hi - lo; there may be space in the BytePos range between files.

SpanLabel

Enums

ExternalSource

The state of the lazy external source loading mechanism of a SourceFile.

FileName

Differentiates between real files and common virtual files.

NonNarrowChar

Identifies an offset of a non-narrow character in a SourceFile.

SpanLinesError
SpanSnippetError

Constants

DUMMY_SP

Dummy span, both position and length are zero, syntax context is zero as well.

Traits

HashStableContext

Requirements for a StableHashingContext to be used in this crate. This is a hack to allow using the HashStable_Generic derive macro instead of implementing everything in librustc.
