Expand description

Represents a span.

Spans represent a region of code, used for error reporting. Positions in spans are absolute positions from the beginning of the SourceMap, not positions relative to SourceFiles. Methods on the SourceMap can be used to relate spans back to the original source.

You must be careful if the span crosses more than one file, since you will not be able to use many of the functions on spans in source_map and you cannot assume that the length of the span is equal to span.hi - span.lo; there may be space in the BytePos range between files.

SpanData is public because Span uses a thread-local interner and can’t be sent to other threads, but some pieces of performance infra run in a separate thread. Using Span is generally preferred.

Fields

lo: BytePoshi: BytePosctxt: SyntaxContext

Information about where the macro came from, if this piece of code was created by a macro expansion.

parent: Option<LocalDefId>

Implementations

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.
