Expand description
Simplification of where-clauses and parameter bounds into a prettier and more canonical form.
Currently all cross-crate-inlined function use rustc_middle::ty to reconstruct
the AST (e.g., see all of clean::inline), but this is not always a
non-lossy transformation. The current format of storage for where-clauses
for functions and such is simply a list of predicates. One example of this
is that the AST predicate of: where T: Trait<Foo = Bar> is encoded as:
where T: Trait, <T as Trait>::Foo = Bar.
This module attempts to reconstruct the original where and/or parameter bounds by special casing scenarios such as these. Fun!
Functions§
- Move bounds that are (likely) directly attached to generic parameters from the where-clause to the respective parameter.
