//! Parsing interface for parsing a token stream into a syntax tree node.
//!
//! Parsing in Syn is built on parser functions that take in a [`Cursor`] and
//! produce a [`PResult<T>`] where `T` is some syntax tree node. `Cursor` is a
//! cheaply copyable cursor over a range of tokens in a token stream, and
//! `PResult` is a result that packages together a parsed syntax tree node `T`
//! with a stream of remaining unparsed tokens after `T` represented as another
//! `Cursor`, or a [`ParseError`] if parsing failed.
//!
//! [`Cursor`]: ../buffer/index.html
//! [`PResult<T>`]: type.PResult.html
//! [`ParseError`]: struct.ParseError.html
//!
//! This `Cursor`- and `PResult`-based interface is convenient for parser
//! combinators and parser implementations, but not necessarily when you just
//! have some tokens that you want to parse. For that we expose the following
//! two entry points.
//!
//! ## The `syn::parse*` functions
//!
//! The [`syn::parse`], [`syn::parse2`], and [`syn::parse_str`] functions serve
//! as an entry point for parsing syntax tree nodes that can be parsed in an
//! obvious default way. These functions can return any syntax tree node that
//! implements the [`Synom`] trait, which includes most types in Syn.
//!
//! [`syn::parse`]: ../fn.parse.html
//! [`syn::parse2`]: ../fn.parse2.html
//! [`syn::parse_str`]: ../fn.parse_str.html
//! [`Synom`]: trait.Synom.html
//!
//! ```
//! use syn::Type;
//!
//! # fn run_parser() -> Result<(), syn::synom::ParseError> {
//! let t: Type = syn::parse_str("std::collections::HashMap<String, Value>")?;
//! #     Ok(())
//! # }
//! #
//! # fn main() {
//! #     run_parser().unwrap();
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! The [`parse_quote!`] macro also uses this approach.
//!
//! [`parse_quote!`]: ../macro.parse_quote.html
//!
//! ## The `Parser` trait
//!
//! Some types can be parsed in several ways depending on context. For example
//! an [`Attribute`] can be either "outer" like `#[...]` or "inner" like
//! `#![...]` and parsing the wrong one would be a bug. Similarly [`Punctuated`]
//! may or may not allow trailing punctuation, and parsing it the wrong way
//! would either reject valid input or accept invalid input.
//!
//! [`Attribute`]: ../struct.Attribute.html
//! [`Punctuated`]: ../punctuated/index.html
//!
//! The `Synom` trait is not implemented in these cases because there is no good
//! behavior to consider the default.
//!
//! ```ignore
//! // Can't parse `Punctuated` without knowing whether trailing punctuation
//! // should be allowed in this context.
//! let path: Punctuated<PathSegment, Token![::]> = syn::parse(tokens)?;
//! ```
//!
//! In these cases the types provide a choice of parser functions rather than a
//! single `Synom` implementation, and those parser functions can be invoked
//! through the [`Parser`] trait.
//!
//! [`Parser`]: trait.Parser.html
//!
//! ```
//! # #[macro_use]
//! # extern crate syn;
//! #
//! # extern crate proc_macro2;
//! # use proc_macro2::TokenStream;
//! #
//! use syn::synom::Parser;
//! use syn::punctuated::Punctuated;
//! use syn::{PathSegment, Expr, Attribute};
//!
//! # fn run_parsers() -> Result<(), syn::synom::ParseError> {
//! #     let tokens = TokenStream::empty().into();
//! // Parse a nonempty sequence of path segments separated by `::` punctuation
//! // with no trailing punctuation.
//! let parser = Punctuated::<PathSegment, Token![::]>::parse_separated_nonempty;
//! let path = parser.parse(tokens)?;
//!
//! #     let tokens = TokenStream::empty().into();
//! // Parse a possibly empty sequence of expressions terminated by commas with
//! // an optional trailing punctuation.
//! let parser = Punctuated::<Expr, Token![,]>::parse_terminated;
//! let args = parser.parse(tokens)?;
//!
//! #     let tokens = TokenStream::empty().into();
//! // Parse zero or more outer attributes but not inner attributes.
//! named!(outer_attrs -> Vec<Attribute>, many0!(Attribute::parse_outer));
//! let attrs = outer_attrs.parse(tokens)?;
//! #
//! #     Ok(())
//! # }
//! #
//! # fn main() {}
//! ```
//!
//! # Implementing a parser function
//!
//! Parser functions are usually implemented using the [`nom`]-style parser
//! combinator macros provided by Syn, but may also be implemented without
//! macros be using the low-level [`Cursor`] API directly.
//!
//! [`nom`]: https://github.com/Geal/nom
//!
//! The following parser combinator macros are available and a `Synom` parsing
//! example is provided for each one.
