|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Parsing in Syn is built on parser functions that take in a <a href="../buffer/index.html"><code>Cursor</code></a> and
|
|
|
|
|
|
produce a <a href="type.PResult.html"><code>PResult<T></code></a> where <code>T</code> is some syntax tree node. <code>Cursor</code> is a
|
|
|
|
|
|
cheaply copyable cursor over a range of tokens in a token stream, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
<code>PResult</code> is a result that packages together a parsed syntax tree node <code>T</code>
|
|
|
|
|
|
with a stream of remaining unparsed tokens after <code>T</code> represented as another
|
|
|
|
|
|
<code>Cursor</code>, or a <a href="struct.ParseError.html"><code>ParseError</code></a> if parsing failed.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This <code>Cursor</code>- and <code>PResult</code>-based interface is convenient for parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
combinators and parser implementations, but not necessarily when you just
|
|
|
|
|
|
have some tokens that you want to parse. For that we expose the following
|
|
|
|
|
|
two entry points.</p>
|
|
|
|

|
<h2 id="the-synparse-functions" class="section-header"><a href="#the-synparse-functions">The <code>syn::parse*</code> functions</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The <a href="../fn.parse.html"><code>syn::parse</code></a>, <a href="../fn.parse2.html"><code>syn::parse2</code></a>, and <a href="../fn.parse_str.html"><code>syn::parse_str</code></a> functions serve
|
|
|
|
|
|
as an entry point for parsing syntax tree nodes that can be parsed in an
|
|
|
|
|
|
obvious default way. These functions can return any syntax tree node that
|
|
|
|
|
|
implements the <a href="trait.Synom.html"><code>Synom</code></a> trait, which includes most types in Syn.</p>
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The <a href="../macro.parse_quote.html"><code>parse_quote!</code></a> macro also uses this approach.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="the-parser-trait" class="section-header"><a href="#the-parser-trait">The <code>Parser</code> trait</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Some types can be parsed in several ways depending on context. For example
|
|
|
|
|
|
an <a href="../struct.Attribute.html"><code>Attribute</code></a> can be either "outer" like <code>#[...]</code> or "inner" like
|
|
|
|
|
|
<code>#![...]</code> and parsing the wrong one would be a bug. Similarly <a href="../punctuated/index.html"><code>Punctuated</code></a>
|
|
|
|
|
|
may or may not allow trailing punctuation, and parsing it the wrong way
|
|
|
|
|
|
would either reject valid input or accept invalid input.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code>Synom</code> trait is not implemented in these cases because there is no good
|
|
|
|
|
|
behavior to consider the default.</p>
