11 //! Conversion from AST representation of types to the ty.rs
12 //! representation.  The main routine here is `ast_ty_to_ty()`: each use
13 //! is parameterized by an instance of `AstConv` and a `RegionScope`.
14 //!
15 //! The parameterization of `ast_ty_to_ty()` is because it behaves
16 //! somewhat differently during the collect and check phases,
17 //! particularly with respect to looking up the types of top-level
18 //! items.  In the collect phase, the crate context is used as the
19 //! `AstConv` instance; in this phase, the `get_item_type_scheme()`
20 //! function triggers a recursive call to `type_scheme_of_item()`
21 //! (note that `ast_ty_to_ty()` will detect recursive types and report
22 //! an error).  In the check phase, when the FnCtxt is used as the
23 //! `AstConv`, `get_item_type_scheme()` just looks up the item type in
24 //! `tcx.tcache` (using `ty::lookup_item_type`).
25 //!
26 //! The `RegionScope` trait controls what happens when the user does
27 //! not specify a region in some location where a region is required
28 //! (e.g., if the user writes `&Foo` as a type rather than `&'a Foo`).
29 //! See the `rscope` module for more details.
30 //!
31 //! Unlike the `AstConv` trait, the region scope can change as we descend
32 //! the type.  This is to accommodate the fact that (a) fn types are binding
33 //! scopes and (b) the default region may change.  To understand case (a),
34 //! consider something like:
35 //!
36 //!   type foo = { x: &a.int, y: |&a.int| }
37 //!
38 //! The type of `x` is an error because there is no region `a` in scope.
39 //! In the type of `y`, however, region `a` is considered a bound region
40 //! as it does not already appear in scope.
41 //!
42 //! Case (b) says that if you have a type:
43 //!   type foo<'a> = ...;
44 //!   type bar = fn(&foo, &a.foo)
45 //! The fully expanded version of type bar is:
46 //!   type bar = fn(&'foo &, &a.foo<'a>)
47 //! Note that the self region for the `foo` defaulted to `&` in the first
48 //! case but `&a` in the second.  Basically, defaults that appear inside
49 //! an rptr (`&r.T`) use the region `r` that appears in the rptr.
