rtlola_parser/lib.rs
1//! A parser for RTLola specifications
2//!
3//! This crate offers functionality to transform a textual representation of an RTLola specification into an abstract syntax tree. The Ast is not the most convenient data structure for
4//! modifying or analyzing a specification; there are other options available, outlined below.
5//!
6//! # Specification Representations
7//! * [RtLolaAst]: The Ast represents the abstract syntax of the specification. It is obtained by first parsing the specification into a homogenous tree
8//! and then remove concrete syntax fragments irrelevant for the logics of the specification. Apart from that, the Ast does not provide much functionality.
9//! The only checks performed when creating the Ast concern the correct syntax. See also: [RtLolaAst], and [parse()].
10//! * [RtLolaHir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_hir/struct.RtLolaHir.html): The Hir represents a high-level intermediate representation optimized for analyzability. It contains more convenient methods than the Ast, enables different
11//! analysis steps and provides their reports. The Hir traverses several modes representing the level to which it was analyzed and refined.
12//! Its base mode is `RtLolaHir<BaseMode>` and its fully analyzed version is `RtLolaHir<CompleteMode>`. See also: [rtlola_hir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_hir).
13//! * [RtLolaMir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_frontend/struct.RtLolaMir.html): The Mir represents a mid-level intermediate representation optimized for external use such as interpretation and compilation. It contains several interconnections
14//! enabling easy accesses and additional annotation such as memory bounds for each stream. See also: [rtlola_hir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_hir).
15//! As a rule of thumb, if you want to analyze and/or enrich a specification, use the [RtLolaHir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_hir/struct.RtLolaHir.html). If you only need a convenient representation of the specification for some devious
16//! activity such as compiling it into something else, the [RtLolaMir](https://docs.rs/rtlola_frontend/struct.RtLolaMir.html) is the way to go.
17//!
