<p>This is the opposite operation to <a href="../struct.ParseBuffer.html#method.fork" title="method syn::parse::ParseBuffer::fork"><code>ParseStream::fork</code></a>. You can fork a
|
|||
|
|
parse stream, perform some speculative parsing, then join the original
|
|||
|
|
stream to the fork to “commit” the parsing from the fork to the main
|
|||
|
|
stream.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>If you can avoid doing this, you should, as it limits the ability to
|
|||
|
|
generate useful errors. That said, it is often the only way to parse
|
|||
|
|
syntax of the form <code>A* B*</code> for arbitrary syntax <code>A</code> and <code>B</code>. The problem
|
|||
|
|
is that when the fork fails to parse an <code>A</code>, it’s impossible to tell
|
|||
|
|
whether that was because of a syntax error and the user meant to provide
|
|||
|
|
an <code>A</code>, or that the <code>A</code>s are finished and it’s time to start parsing
|
|||
|
|
<code>B</code>s. Use with care.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Also note that if <code>A</code> is a subset of <code>B</code>, <code>A* B*</code> can be parsed by
|
|||
|
|
parsing <code>B*</code> and removing the leading members of <code>A</code> from the
|
|||
|
|
repetition, bypassing the need to involve the downsides associated with
|
|||
|
|
speculative parsing.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h5 id="example"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#example">§</a>Example</h5>
|
|||
|
|
<p>There has been chatter about the possibility of making the colons in the
|
|||
|
|
turbofish syntax like <code>path::to::<T></code> no longer required by accepting
|
|||
|
|
<code>path::to<T></code> in expression position. Specifically, according to <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2544">RFC
|
|||
|
|
2544</a>, <a href="../../struct.PathSegment.html" title="struct syn::PathSegment"><code>PathSegment</code></a> parsing should always try to consume a following
|
|||
|
|
<code><</code> token as the start of generic arguments, and reset to the <code><</code> if
|
|||
|
|
that fails (e.g. the token is acting as a less-than operator).</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This is the exact kind of parsing behavior which requires the “fork,
|
|||
|
|
try, commit” behavior that <a href="../struct.ParseBuffer.html#method.fork" title="method syn::parse::ParseBuffer::fork"><code>ParseStream::fork</code></a> discourages. With
|
|||
|
|
<code>advance_to</code>, we can avoid having to parse the speculatively parsed
|
|||
|
|
content a second time.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This change in behavior can be implemented in syn by replacing just the
|
|||
|
|
<code>Parse</code> implementation for <code>PathSegment</code>:</p>

<h5 id="drawbacks"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#drawbacks">§</a>Drawbacks</h5>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The main drawback of this style of speculative parsing is in error
|
|||
|
|
presentation. Even if the lookahead is the “correct” parse, the error
|
|||
|
|
that is shown is that of the “fallback” parse. To use the same example
|
|||
|
|
as the turbofish above, take the following unfinished “turbofish”:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="language-text"><code>let _ = f<&'a fn(), for<'a> serde::>();
|
|||
|
|
</code></pre></div>
|
|||
|
|
<p>If this is parsed as generic arguments, we can provide the error message</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="language-text"><code>error: expected identifier
|
|||
|
|
--> src.rs:L:C
|
|||
|
|
|
|
|||
|
|
L | let _ = f<&'a fn(), for<'a> serde::>();
|
|||
|
|
| ^
|
|||
|
|
</code></pre></div>
|
|||
|
|
<p>but if parsed using the above speculative parsing, it falls back to
|
|||
|
|
assuming that the <code><</code> is a less-than when it fails to parse the generic
|
|||
|
|
arguments, and tries to interpret the <code>&'a</code> as the start of a labelled
|
|||
|
|
loop, resulting in the much less helpful error</p>
|
|||
|
|
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="language-text"><code>error: expected `:`
|
|||
|
|
--> src.rs:L:C
|
|||
|
|
|
|
|||
|
|
L | let _ = f<&'a fn(), for<'a> serde::>();
|
|||
|
|
| ^^
|
|||
|
|
</code></pre></div>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This can be mitigated with various heuristics (two examples: show both
|
|||
|
|
forks’ parse errors, or show the one that consumed more tokens), but
|
|||
|
|
when you can control the grammar, sticking to something that can be
|
|||
|
|
parsed LL(3) and without the LL(*) speculative parsing this makes
|
|||
|
|
possible, displaying reasonable errors becomes much more simple.</p>

|||
|
|
<h5 id="performance"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#performance">§</a>Performance</h5>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This method performs a cheap fixed amount of work that does not depend
|
|||
|
|
on how far apart the two streams are positioned.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h5 id="panics"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#panics">§</a>Panics</h5>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The forked stream in the argument of <code>advance_to</code> must have been
|
|||
|
|
obtained by forking <code>self</code>. Attempting to advance to any other stream
|
|||
|
|
will cause a panic.</p>
