Structs
- The result of resolving a path before lowering to HIR, with “module” segments resolved and associated item segments deferred to type checking.
base_res
is the resolution of the resolved part of the path,unresolved_segments
is the number of unresolved segments. - Just a helper ‒ separate structure for each namespace.
Enums
- What kind of constructor something is.
- Encodes if a
DefKind::Ctor
is the constructor of an enum variant or a struct. - What kind of definition something is; e.g.,
mod
vsstruct
. - Resolution for a lifetime appearing in a type.
- Different kinds of symbols can coexist even if they share the same textual name. Therefore, they each have a separate universe (known as a “namespace”).
- An attribute that is not a macro; e.g.,
#[inline]
or#[rustfmt::skip]
. - The resolution of a path or export.
