Macros
Adds the
crate:: prefix to paths where appropriate.Force us to name impls with just the filename/line number. We
normally try to use types. But at some points, notably while printing
cycle errors, this can result in extra or suboptimal error output,
so this variable disables that check.
Avoids running any queries during any prints that occur
during the closure. This may alter the appearance of some
types (e.g. forcing verbose printing for opaque types).
This method is used during some queries (e.g.
explicit_item_bounds
for opaque types), to ensure that any debug printing that
occurs during the query computation does not end up recursively
calling the same query.Prevent path trimming if it is turned on. Path trimming affects
Display impl
of various rustc types, for example std::vec::Vec would be trimmed to Vec,
if no other Vec is found.Prevent selection of visible paths.
Display impl of DefId will prefer
visible (public) reexports of types as paths.Structs
The “region highlights” are used to control region printing during
specific error messages. When a “region highlight” is enabled, it
gives an alternate way to print specific regions. For now, we
always print those regions using a number, so something like “
'0”.Wrapper type for
ty::TraitRef which opts-in to pretty printing only
the trait name. That is, it will print Trait instead of
<T as Trait<U>>.Wrapper type for
ty::TraitRef which opts-in to pretty printing only
the trait path. That is, it will print Trait<U> instead of
<T as Trait<U>>.Traits
Trait for printers that pretty-print using
fmt::Write to the printer.Interface for outputting user-facing “type-system entities”
(paths, types, lifetimes, constants, etc.) as a side-effect
(e.g. formatting, like
PrettyPrinter implementors do) or by
constructing some alternative representation (e.g. an AST),
which the associated types allow passing through the methods.Functions
As a heuristic, when we see an impl, if we see that the
‘self type’ is a type defined in the same module as the impl,
we can omit including the path to the impl itself. This
function tries to find a “characteristic
DefId” for a
type. It’s just a heuristic so it makes some questionable
decisions and we may want to adjust it later.
