Expand description

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.

If the syntax extension is an MBE macro, it will attempt to match its LHS token tree against the provided token tree, and if it finds a match, will transcribe the RHS token tree, splicing in any captured macro_parser::matched_nonterminals into the SubstNts it finds.

The RHS of an MBE macro is the only place SubstNts are substituted. Nothing special happens to misnamed or misplaced SubstNts.

Variants

Token(TokenSpacing)

A single token.

Delimited(DelimSpanDelimiterTokenStream)

A delimited sequence of token trees.

Implementations

Checks if this TokenTree is equal to the other, regardless of span information.

Retrieves the TokenTree’s span.

Modify the TokenTree’s span in-place.

Layout

Note: Most layout information is completely unstable and may even differ between compilations. The only exception is types with certain repr(...) attributes. Please see the Rust Reference’s “Type Layout” chapter for details on type layout guarantees.
