[][src]Struct rustc_ap_rustc_ast::ast::Name

pub struct Name(_);

An interned string.

Internally, a Symbol is implemented as an index, and all operations (including hashing, equality, and ordering) operate on that index. The use of rustc_index::newtype_index! means that Option<Symbol> only takes up 4 bytes, because rustc_index::newtype_index! reserves the last 256 values for tagging purposes.

Note that Symbol cannot directly be a rustc_index::newtype_index! because it implements fmt::Debug, Encodable, and Decodable in special ways.

Methods

impl Symbol[src]

pub fn intern(string: &str) -> Symbol[src]

Maps a string to its interned representation.

pub fn with<F, R>(self, f: F) -> R where
    F: FnOnce(&str) -> R, 
[src]

Access the symbol's chars. This is a slowish operation because it requires locking the symbol interner.

pub fn as_str(self) -> SymbolStr[src]

Convert to a SymbolStr. This is a slowish operation because it requires locking the symbol interner.

pub fn as_u32(self) -> u32[src]

pub fn to_ident_string(self) -> String[src]

This method is supposed to be used in error messages, so it's expected to be identical to printing the original identifier token written in source code (token_to_string, Ident::to_string), except that symbols don't keep the rawness flag or edition, so we have to guess the rawness using the global edition.

impl Symbol[src]

pub fn is_doc_keyword(self) -> bool[src]

Used for sanity checking rustdoc keyword sections.

pub fn is_path_segment_keyword(self) -> bool[src]

A keyword or reserved identifier that can be used as a path segment.

pub fn is_bool_lit(self) -> bool[src]

Returns true if the symbol is true or false.

pub fn can_be_raw(self) -> bool[src]

This symbol can be a raw identifier.
