Modules
- Module containing the types which make up
gluon
’s AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) - Module containing a few common error wrappers which allows more information to be saved for later display to the user
- Collection types which allows insertion of new values while shared references to its contents are alive. This is done by storing each value in a stable memory location and preventing an earlier inserted value to be overwritten.
- Source code locations (borrowed from rustc’s libsyntax_pos)
- A map data type which allows the same key to exist at multiple scope levels
- Module containing types and functions for mapping between byte indexes and line and column locations
- Module which contains types working with symbols
