Crate roussillon_type_system 

Roussillon : Type System

This crate provides some structs and traits to manage types and typed values.

This crate goal IS NOT to manage memory allocation.

Primitive types

These are the necessary types to construct any other meaningful type. Usually, these are “machine types” :

• types::primitive::Primitive::Boolean type of value::boolean::Boolean,
• types::primitive::Primitive::Byte type of value::byte::Bytes::Byte,
• types::primitive::Primitive::Bytes type of :
  • value::byte::Bytes::Arch,
  • value::byte::Bytes::Word,
  • value::byte::Bytes::Quad,
  • value::byte::Bytes::Long,
  • value::byte::Bytes::Wide, and
  • value::byte::Bytes::Bytes,
• types::primitive::Primitive::Float type of value::number::Float,
• types::primitive::Primitive::Integer type of value::number::Integer,
• types::primitive::Primitive::Reference type of value::reference::Reference,
• types::primitive::Primitive::List type of value::list::List,

The “tuple” type

A sequence of heterogeneous typed values.

• types::sequence::Tuple type of value::sequence::Sequence,

Algebraic Data Types

• types::algebraic::SumType type of value::union::SumValue,
• types::algebraic::ProductType type of value::record::ProductValue,

Custom types

These types are identity::Identified ADTs with identity::Labelled fields.

• types::typedef::Enumeration type of value::union::Union,
• types::typedef::Structure type of value::record::Record,

Functional

• types::functional::FunctionType type of types::functional::FunctionDeclaration composed in value::function::FunctionDefinition with value::function::FunctionBody.

Experimental types

These types are experimental and should not be used yet.

• [types::dynamic::AnyType], [types::dynamic::Dynamic] and [value::value_type::ValueType],
• [types::interface::Interface].

Modules

facade

identity

A namespaced Identifier for named types like crate::types::typedef::Enumeration and crate::types::typedef::Structure.

types
