Crate syn

Modules

parse	This module contains a set of exported nom parsers which can be used to parse custom grammars when used alongside the synom crate.
visit	AST walker. Each overridden visit method has full control over what happens with its node, it can do its own traversal of the node's children, call visit::walk_* to apply the default traversal algorithm, or prevent deeper traversal by doing nothing.

Structs

AngleBracketedParameterData	A path like Foo<'a, T>
Attribute	Doc-comments are promoted to attributes that have is_sugared_doc = true
BareFnArg	An argument in a function type.
BareFnTy
ByteStrLit
Delimited
DeriveInput	Struct or enum sent to a proc_macro_derive macro.
Field	A field of a struct or enum variant.
FloatLit
Generics	Represents lifetimes and type parameters attached to a declaration of a function, enum, trait, etc.
Ident
ImplGenerics	Returned by Generics::split_for_impl.
IntLit
Lifetime
LifetimeDef	A lifetime definition, e.g. 'a: 'b+'c+'d
Mac	Represents a macro invocation. The Path indicates which macro is being invoked, and the vector of token-trees contains the source of the macro invocation.
MutTy
ParenthesizedParameterData	A path like Foo(A,B) -> C
Path	A "Path" is essentially Rust's notion of a name.
PathSegment	A segment of a path: an identifier, an optional lifetime, and a set of types.
PolyTraitRef
QSelf	The explicit Self type in a "qualified path". The actual path, including the trait and the associated item, is stored separately. position represents the index of the associated item qualified with this Self type.
StrLit
Turbofish	Returned by TyGenerics::as_turbofish.
TyGenerics	Returned by Generics::split_for_impl.
TyParam	A generic type parameter, e.g. T: Into<String>.
TypeBinding	Bind a type to an associated type: A=Foo.
Variant	An enum variant.
WhereBoundPredicate	A type bound.
WhereClause	A where clause in a definition
WhereEqPredicate	An equality predicate (unsupported).
WhereRegionPredicate	A lifetime predicate.

Enums

Abi
AttrStyle	Distinguishes between Attributes that decorate items and Attributes that are contained as statements within items. These two cases need to be distinguished for pretty-printing.
BinOp
BinOpToken
Body	Body of a derived struct or enum.
ConstExpr
DelimToken	A delimiter token
FloatTy
FunctionRetTy
IntTy
Lit	Literal kind.
MetaItem	A compile-time attribute item.
Mutability
NestedMetaItem	Possible values inside of compile-time attribute lists.
PathParameters	Parameters of a path segment.
StrStyle
Token
TokenTree	When the main rust parser encounters a syntax-extension invocation, it parses the arguments to the invocation as a token-tree. This is a very loose structure, such that all sorts of different AST-fragments can be passed to syntax extensions using a uniform type.
TraitBoundModifier	A modifier on a bound, currently this is only used for ?Sized, where the modifier is Maybe. Negative bounds should also be handled here.
Ty	The different kinds of types recognized by the compiler
TyParamBound	The AST represents all type param bounds as types. typeck::collect::compute_bounds matches these against the "special" built-in traits (see middle::lang_items) and detects Copy, Send and Sync.
UnOp
Unsafety
VariantData	Data stored within an enum variant or struct.
Visibility	Visibility level of an item.
WherePredicate	A single predicate in a where clause
