parse-generics-and-where RFC Proof of Concept

This repository contains a proof-of-concept implementation for the parse-generics-and-where RFC. It requires the rustc nightly from 2016-04-06.

parse-generics-poc contains the implementation of the parse_generics! and parse_where! macros.

parse-macros implements stable macro_rules! macros for destructuring the various Rust items by making use of the parse_generics! and parse_where! macros. Note that these macros have not been updated for the specialisation RFC, or the restricted pub RFC.

Examples and Tests

parse-generics-poc

  • tests/derive_clone_copy.rs: derives an implementation of Clone that uses Copy.
  • tests/derive_iterator.rs: derives Iterator for newtype structs.
  • tests/simple.rs: asserts the output of the macros.
  • tests/wrap_fn.rs: defines a macro to wrap a function with prologue/epilogue code.

parse-macros

  • examples/derive_clone.rs: stable macro_rules! re-implementation of the existing Clone derive attribute.
  • examples/derive_partial_ord.rs: stable macro_rules! re-implementation of the existing PartialOrd derive attribute.
  • examples/reflect.rs: stable macro to derive (partial and inefficient) runtime reflection structures.
  • examples/sandbox.rs: dumps the parsed form of some random bits of code.
  • tests/derive_serialize.rs: stable macro that derives serde's Serialize trait.
