rudb_parse/

ast.rs

//! rudb's abstract syntax tree.
//!
//! The parse tree the matcher produces is DuckDB's grammar, faithfully. That is the point of it and
//! it is also why nothing downstream should read it: a bump of the vendored grammar is allowed to
//! rename `BetweenInLikeExpression`, and if the binder is matching on that name then the bump is a
//! rewrite. This module is the boundary. It is ours, it changes when we decide it changes, and
//! `transform` is the one place that knows both shapes.
//!
//! Everything is an arena with `u32` indices, per `spec/04-architecture.md` section 4.5. There is
//! no `Box` and no `Vec` inside a node. A list of children is a [`Slice`] into a side vector, which
//! means a node is a fixed size, the whole tree is a handful of allocations, and walking it is a
//! sequential read rather than a pointer chase per node. It also means an `Ast` is `Clone` and
//! `Send` without any thought, and that a subtree can be addressed by a `u32` in a plan or an
//! error without borrowing anything.
//!
//! The one cost is that you cannot hold a reference to a node and index the arena at the same time,
//! so the code reads a node out by value first. Nodes are small and `Copy`, so that is a register
//! move.
