macro_check.rs

//! Checks that meta-variables in macro definition are correctly declared and used.
//!
//! # What is checked
//!
//! ## Meta-variables must not be bound twice
//!
//! ```compile_fail
//! macro_rules! foo { ($x:tt $x:tt) => { $x }; }
//! ```
//!
//! This check is sound (no false-negative) and complete (no false-positive).
//!
//! ## Meta-variables must not be free
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { () => { $x }; }
//! ```
//!
//! This check is also done at macro instantiation but only if the branch is taken.
//!
//! ## Meta-variables must repeat at least as many times as their binder
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { ($($x:tt)*) => { $x }; }
//! ```
//!
//! This check is also done at macro instantiation but only if the branch is taken.
//!
//! ## Meta-variables must repeat with the same Kleene operators as their binder
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { ($($x:tt)+) => { $($x)* }; }
//! ```
//!
//! This check is not done at macro instantiation.
//!
//! # Disclaimer
//!
//! In the presence of nested macros (a macro defined in a macro), those checks may have false
//! positives and false negatives. We try to detect those cases by recognizing potential macro
//! definitions in RHSes, but nested macros may be hidden through the use of particular values of
//! meta-variables.
//!
//! ## Examples of false positive
//!
//! False positives can come from cases where we don't recognize a nested macro, because it depends
//! on particular values of meta-variables. In the following example, we think both instances of
//! `$x` are free, which is a correct statement if `$name` is anything but `macro_rules`. But when
//! `$name` is `macro_rules`, like in the instantiation below, then `$x:tt` is actually a binder of
//! the nested macro and `$x` is bound to it.
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { ($name:ident) => { $name! bar { ($x:tt) => { $x }; } }; }
//! foo!(macro_rules);
//! ```
//!
//! False positives can also come from cases where we think there is a nested macro while there
//! isn't. In the following example, we think `$x` is free, which is incorrect because `bar` is not
//! a nested macro since it is not evaluated as code by `stringify!`.
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { () => { stringify!(macro_rules! bar { () => { $x }; }) }; }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Examples of false negative
//!
//! False negatives can come from cases where we don't recognize a meta-variable, because it depends
//! on particular values of meta-variables. In the following examples, we don't see that if `$d` is
//! instantiated with `$` then `$d z` becomes `$z` in the nested macro definition and is thus a free
//! meta-variable. Note however, that if `foo` is instantiated, then we would check the definition
//! of `bar` and would see the issue.
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! foo { ($d:tt) => { macro_rules! bar { ($y:tt) => { $d z }; } }; }
//! ```
//!
//! # How it is checked
//!
//! There are 3 main functions: `check_binders`, `check_occurrences`, and `check_nested_macro`. They
//! all need some kind of environment.
//!
//! ## Environments
//!
//! Environments are used to pass information.
//!
//! ### From LHS to RHS
//!
//! When checking a LHS with `check_binders`, we produce (and use) an environment for binders,
//! namely `Binders`. This is a mapping from binder name to information about that binder: the span
//! of the binder for error messages and the stack of Kleene operators under which it was bound in
//! the LHS.
//!
//! This environment is used by both the LHS and RHS. The LHS uses it to detect duplicate binders.
//! The RHS uses it to detect the other errors.
//!
//! ### From outer macro to inner macro
//!
//! When checking the RHS of an outer macro and we detect a nested macro definition, we push the
//! current state, namely `MacroState`, to an environment of nested macro definitions. Each state
//! stores the LHS binders when entering the macro definition as well as the stack of Kleene
//! operators under which the inner macro is defined in the RHS.
//!
//! This environment is a stack representing the nesting of macro definitions. As such, the stack of
//! Kleene operators under which a meta-variable is repeating is the concatenation of the stacks
//! stored when entering a macro definition starting from the state in which the meta-variable is
//! bound.
