Note on the use of Lexing.position in this module. If pos_fname = ""
, then use !input_name
instead. If pos_lnum = -1
, then pos_bol = 0
. Use pos_cnum
and re-parse the file to get the line and character numbers. Else all fields are correct.
val none : Location.t
An arbitrary value of type t
; describes an empty ghost range.
val is_none : Location.t -> bool
True for Location.none
, false any other location
val in_file : string -> Location.t
Return an empty ghost range located in a given file.
val init : Lexing.lexbuf -> string -> unit
Set the file name and line number of the lexbuf
to be the start of the named file.
val curr : Lexing.lexbuf -> Location.t
Get the location of the current token from the lexbuf
.
val symbol_rloc : unit -> Location.t
val symbol_gloc : unit -> Location.t
val rhs_loc : int -> Location.t
rhs_loc n
returns the location of the symbol at position n
, starting at 1, in the current parser rule.
val rhs_interval : int -> int -> Location.t
val get_pos_info : Lexing.position -> string * int * int
file, line, char
val mknoloc : 'a -> 'a Location.loc
val mkloc : 'a -> Location.t -> 'a Location.loc
Input info

val input_lexbuf : Lexing.lexbuf option ref
Toplevel-specific functions
Printing locations
rewrite absolute path to honor the BUILD_PATH_PREFIX_MAP variable (https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/build-path-prefix-map/) if it is set.
In -absname mode, return the absolute path for this filename. Otherwise, returns the filename unchanged.
val print_filename : Format.formatter -> string -> unit
val print_loc : Format.formatter -> Location.t -> unit
val print_locs : Format.formatter -> Location.t list -> unit
Toplevel-specific location highlighting
val highlight_terminfo :
Lexing.lexbuf ->
Format.formatter ->
Location.t list ->
unit
Reporting errors and warnings
The type of reports and report printers
val msg :
?loc:Location.t ->
('a, Format.formatter, unit, Location.msg) format4 ->
'a
Report printers used in the compiler
val batch_mode_printer : Location.report_printer
val terminfo_toplevel_printer : Lexing.lexbuf -> Location.report_printer
val best_toplevel_printer : unit -> Location.report_printer
Detects the terminal capabilities and selects an adequate printer
Printing a report
val print_report : Format.formatter -> Location.report -> unit
Display an error or warning report.
val report_printer : (unit -> Location.report_printer) ref
Hook for redefining the printer of reports.
The hook is a unit -> report_printer
and not simply a report_printer
: this is useful so that it can detect the type of the output (a file, a terminal, ...) and select a printer accordingly.
val default_report_printer : unit -> Location.report_printer
Original report printer for use in hooks.
Reporting warnings
Converting a Warnings.t
into a report
val report_warning : Location.t -> Warnings.t -> Location.report option
report_warning loc w
produces a report for the given warning w
, or None
if the warning is not to be printed.
val warning_reporter : (Location.t -> Warnings.t -> Location.report option) ref
Hook for intercepting warnings.
val default_warning_reporter :
Location.t ->
Warnings.t ->
Location.report option
Original warning reporter for use in hooks.
Printing warnings
val formatter_for_warnings : Format.formatter ref
val print_warning : Location.t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit
Prints a warning. This is simply the composition of report_warning
and print_report
.
val prerr_warning : Location.t -> Warnings.t -> unit
Same as print_warning
, but uses !formatter_for_warnings
as output formatter.
Reporting alerts
Converting an Alert.t
into a report
val report_alert : Location.t -> Warnings.alert -> Location.report option
report_alert loc w
produces a report for the given alert w
, or None
if the alert is not to be printed.
val alert_reporter :
(Location.t -> Warnings.alert -> Location.report option) ref
Hook for intercepting alerts.
val default_alert_reporter :
Location.t ->
Warnings.alert ->
Location.report option
Original alert reporter for use in hooks.
Printing alerts
val print_alert : Location.t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.alert -> unit
Prints an alert. This is simply the composition of report_alert
and print_report
.
val prerr_alert : Location.t -> Warnings.alert -> unit
Same as print_alert
, but uses !formatter_for_warnings
as output formatter.
val deprecated :
?def:Location.t ->
?use:Location.t ->
Location.t ->
string ->
unit
Prints a deprecation alert.
val alert :
?def:Location.t ->
?use:Location.t ->
kind:string ->
Location.t ->
string ->
unit
Prints an arbitrary alert.
Reporting errors
val error :
?loc:Location.t ->
?sub:Location.msg list ->
string ->
Location.error
val errorf :
?loc:Location.t ->
?sub:Location.msg list ->
('a, Format.formatter, unit, Location.error) format4 ->
'a
val error_of_printer :
?loc:Location.t ->
?sub:Location.msg list ->
(Format.formatter -> 'a -> unit) ->
'a ->
Location.error
val error_of_printer_file :
(Format.formatter -> 'a -> unit) ->
'a ->
Location.error
Automatically reporting errors for raised exceptions
val register_error_of_exn : (exn -> Location.error option) -> unit
Each compiler module which defines a custom type of exception which can surface as a user-visible error should register a "printer" for this exception using register_error_of_exn
. The result of the printer is an error
value containing a location, a message, and optionally sub-messages (each of them being located as well).
val error_of_exn : exn -> [ `Ok of Location.error | `Already_displayed ] option
exception Error of Location.error
Raising Error e
signals an error e
; the exception will be caught and the error will be printed.
Raising Already_displayed_error
signals an error which has already been printed. The exception will be caught, but nothing will be printed
val raise_errorf :
?loc:Location.t ->
?sub:Location.msg list ->
('a, Format.formatter, unit, 'b) format4 ->
'a
val report_exception : Format.formatter -> exn -> unit
Reraise the exception if it is unknown.
