Module Location
 : sig end

Source code locations (ranges of positions), used in parsetree.

type t = Warnings.loc = {
 loc_start : Lexing.position ;
 loc_end : Lexing.position ;
 loc_ghost : bool ;
 }

=== 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 : t

An arbitrary value of type t ; describes an empty ghost range.

val in_file : string -> 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 -> t

Get the location of the current token from the lexbuf .

val symbol_rloc : unit -> t

val symbol_gloc : unit -> t

val rhs_loc : int -> t

rhs_loc n returns the location of the symbol at position n , starting at 1, in the current parser rule.

val input_name : string Pervasives.ref

val input_lexbuf : Lexing.lexbuf option Pervasives.ref

val get_pos_info : Lexing.position -> string * int * int

val print_loc : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val print_error_prefix : Format.formatter -> unit

val print_error : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val print_error_cur_file : Format.formatter -> unit -> unit

val print_warning : t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit

val formatter_for_warnings : Format.formatter Pervasives.ref

val prerr_warning : t -> Warnings.t -> unit

val echo_eof : unit -> unit

val reset : unit -> unit

val default_printer : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val printer : (Format.formatter -> t -> unit) Pervasives.ref

val warning_printer : (t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit) Pervasives.ref

Hook for intercepting warnings.

val default_warning_printer : t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit

Original warning printer for use in hooks.

val highlight_locations : Format.formatter -> t list -> bool

val show_code_at_location : Format.formatter -> Lexing.lexbuf -> t -> unit

type 'a loc = {
 txt : 'a ;
 loc : t ;
 }

val mknoloc : 'a -> 'a loc

val mkloc : 'a -> t -> 'a loc

val print : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val print_compact : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val print_filename : Format.formatter -> string -> unit

val rewrite_absolute_path : string -> string

rewrite absolute path to honor the BUILD_PATH_PREFIX_MAP variable (https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/build-path-prefix-map/) if it is set.

val absolute_path : string -> string

val show_filename : string -> string

In -absname mode, return the absolute path for this filename. Otherwise, returns the filename unchanged.

val absname : bool Pervasives.ref

=== Support for located errors ===

type error = {
 loc : t ;
 msg : string ;
 sub : error list ;
 if_highlight : string ;
 }

exception Already_displayed_error

exception Error of error

val error : ?loc:t -> ?sub:error list -> ?if_highlight:string -> string -> error

val errorf : ?loc:t -> ?sub:error list -> ?if_highlight:string -> ('a, Format.formatter, unit, error) Pervasives.format4 -> 'a

val raise_errorf : ?loc:t -> ?sub:error list -> ?if_highlight:string -> ('a, Format.formatter, unit, 'b) Pervasives.format4 -> 'a

val error_of_printer : t -> (Format.formatter -> 'a -> unit) -> 'a -> error

val error_of_printer_file : (Format.formatter -> 'a -> unit) -> 'a -> error

val error_of_exn : exn -> [ `Already_displayed | `Ok of error ] option

val register_error_of_exn : (exn -> 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 report_error : Format.formatter -> error -> unit

val error_reporter : (Format.formatter -> error -> unit) Pervasives.ref

Hook for intercepting error reports.

val default_error_reporter : Format.formatter -> error -> unit

Original error reporter for use in hooks.

val report_exception : Format.formatter -> exn -> unit

Reraise the exception if it is unknown.

val deprecated : ?def:t -> ?use:t -> t -> string -> unit
