Struct proc_macro2::Span

pub struct Span { /* fields omitted */ }

A region of source code, along with macro expansion information.

Implementations

impl Span

pub fn call_site() -> Span

The span of the invocation of the current procedural macro.

Identifiers created with this span will be resolved as if they were written directly at the macro call location (call-site hygiene) and other code at the macro call site will be able to refer to them as well.

pub fn unwrap(self) -> Span

Convert proc_macro2::Span to proc_macro::Span.

This method is available when building with a nightly compiler, or when building with rustc 1.29+ without semver exempt features.

Panics

Panics if called from outside of a procedural macro. Unlike proc_macro2::Span, the proc_macro::Span type can only exist within the context of a procedural macro invocation.

pub fn join(&self, other: Span) -> Option<Span>

Create a new span encompassing self and other.

Returns None if self and other are from different files.

Warning: the underlying proc_macro::Span::join method is nightly-only. When called from within a procedural macro not using a nightly compiler, this method will always return None.
