Expand description

A type capable of parsing text, producing some Output.

A Parser parses lines in sequence. When a line changes, it must be notified and the lines after the changed one must be fed again to the Parser.

Required Associated Types§

Source

type Settings: PartialEq + Clone

The settings to configure the Parser.

Source

type Output

The output of this Parser.

Source

type Iterator<'a>: Iterator<Item = (Range<usize>, Self::Output)> where Self: 'a

The parse iterator type.

Required Methods§

Source

fn new(settings: &Self::Settings) -> Self

Creates a new Parser from its Self::Settings.

Source

fn update(&mut self, new_settings: &Self::Settings)

Updates the Parser with some new Self::Settings.

Source

fn change_line(&mut self, line: usize)

Notifies the Parser that the line at the given index has changed.

Source

fn parse_line(&mut self, line: &str) -> Self::Iterator<'_>

Parses the given line.

If a line changed prior to this, the first line provided here will be the line that changed.

Source

fn current_line(&self) -> usize

Returns the current line of the Parser.

If change_line has been called, this will normally be the least index that changed.

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
