rustc_lexer/

lib.rs

//! Low-level Rust lexer.
//!
//! The idea with `rustc_lexer` is to make a reusable library,
//! by separating out pure lexing and rustc-specific concerns, like spans,
//! error reporting, and interning. So, rustc_lexer operates directly on `&str`,
//! produces simple tokens which are a pair of type-tag and a bit of original text,
//! and does not report errors, instead storing them as flags on the token.
//!
//! Tokens produced by this lexer are not yet ready for parsing the Rust syntax.
//! For that see [`rustc_parse::lexer`], which converts this basic token stream
//! into wide tokens used by actual parser.
//!
//! The purpose of this crate is to convert raw sources into a labeled sequence
//! of well-known token types, so building an actual Rust token stream will
//! be easier.
//!
//! The main entity of this crate is the [`TokenKind`] enum which represents common
//! lexeme types.
//!
//! [`rustc_parse::lexer`]: ../rustc_parse/lexer/index.html

// tidy-alphabetical-start
// We want to be able to build this crate with a stable compiler,
// so no `#![feature]` attributes should be added.
