Crate parse_format

Macro support for format strings

These structures are used when parsing format strings for the compiler. Parsing does not happen at runtime: structures of std::fmt::rt are generated instead.

Re-exports

pub use Alignment::*;

pub use Count::*;

pub use Flag::*;

pub use Piece::*;

pub use Position::*;

Structs

Argument

Representation of an argument specification.

FormatSpec

Specification for the formatting of an argument in the format string.

InnerSpan

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

ParseError

Parser

The parser structure for interpreting the input format string. This is modeled as an iterator over Piece structures to form a stream of tokens being output.

Enums

Alignment

Enum of alignments which are supported.

Count

A count is used for the precision and width parameters of an integer, and can reference either an argument or a literal integer.

Flag

Various flags which can be applied to format strings. The meaning of these flags is defined by the formatters themselves.

ParseMode

The type of format string that we are parsing.

Piece

A piece is a portion of the format string which represents the next part to emit. These are emitted as a stream by the Parser class.

Position

Enum describing where an argument for a format can be located.
