Text locations.
A text location identifies a text span in a given UTF-8 encoded file by an inclusive range of absolute byte positions and the line positions on which those occur.
val file_none : fpath
file_none
is "-"
. A file path to use when there is none.
The type for zero-based, absolute, byte positions in text. If the text has n
bytes, 0
is the first position and n-1
is the last position.
val byte_pos_none : byte_pos
byte_pos_none
is -1
. A position to use when there is none.
The type for one-based, line numbers in the text. Lines increment after a newline which is either a line feed '\n'
(U+000A), a carriage return '\r'
(U+000D) or a carriage return and a line feed "\r\n"
(<U+000D,U+000A>).
val line_num_none : line_num
line_num_none
is -1
. A line number to use when there is none.
The type for line positions. This identifies a line by its line number and the absolute byte position following its newline (or the start of text for the first line). That byte position:
val line_pos_first : line_pos
line_pos_first
is 1, 0
. Note that this is the only line position of the empty text.
val line_pos_none : line_pos
line_pos_none
is (line_pos_none, pos_pos_none)
.
The type for text locations. A text location identifies a text span in an UTF-8 encoded file by an inclusive range of absolute byte positions and the line positions on which they occur.
If the first byte equals the last byte the range contains exactly that byte. If the first byte is greater than the last byte this represents an insertion point before the first byte. In this case information about the last position should be ignored: it can contain anything.
val none : t
none
is a position to use when there is none.
val make :
file:fpath ->
first_byte:byte_pos ->
last_byte:byte_pos ->
first_line:line_pos ->
last_line:line_pos ->
t
v ~file ~first_byte ~last_byte ~first_line ~last_line
is a text location with the given arguments, see corresponding accessors for the semantics. If you don't have a file use file_none
.
first_line l
is the line position on which first_byte l
lies. Irrelevant if is_none
is true
.
val is_none : t -> bool
is_none t
is true
iff first_byte < 0
.
val is_empty : t -> bool
is_empty t
is true
iff first_byte t > last_byte t
.
equal t0 t1
is true
iff t0
and t1
are equal. This checks that file
, first_byte
and last_byte
are equal. Line information is ignored.
compare t0 t1
orders t0
and t1
. The order is compatible with equal
. Comparison starts with file
, follows with first_byte
and ends, if needed, with last_byte
. Line information is ignored.
set_first l ~first_byte ~first_line
sets the the first position of l
to given values.
set_last l ~last_byte ~last_line
sets the last position of l
to given values.
to_first l
has both first and last positions set to l
's first position. The range spans first_byte
. See also before
.
before t
is the empty text location starting at first_byte
.
after t
is the empty empty location starting at last_byte t + 1
; note that at the end of input this may be an invalid byte index. The first_line
and last_line
of the result is last_line t
.
span l0 l1
is the span from the smallest byte position of l0
and l1
to the largest byte position of l0
and l1
. The file path is taken from the greatest byte position.
reloc ~first ~last
uses the first position of first
, the last position of last
and the file of last
.
val pp_ocaml : Stdlib.Format.formatter -> t -> unit
pp_ocaml
formats text locations like the OCaml compiler.
val pp_gnu : Stdlib.Format.formatter -> t -> unit
pp_gnu
formats text locations according to the GNU convention.
val pp_dump : Stdlib.Format.formatter -> t -> unit
pp_dump
formats raw data for debugging.
