Struct syn::Generics

pub struct Generics {
    pub lt_token: Option<Lt>,
    pub params: Punctuated<GenericParam, Comma>,
    pub gt_token: Option<Gt>,
    pub where_clause: Option<WhereClause>,
}

Lifetimes and type parameters attached to a declaration of a function, enum, trait, etc.

This struct represents two distinct optional syntactic elements, generic parameters and where clause. In some locations of the grammar, there may be other tokens in between these two things.

Fields

lt_token: Option<Lt>

params: Punctuated<GenericParam, Comma>

gt_token: Option<Gt>

where_clause: Option<WhereClause>

Implementations

impl Generics

pub fn lifetimes(&self) -> Lifetimes<'_>

Iterator over the lifetime parameters in self.params.

pub fn lifetimes_mut(&mut self) -> LifetimesMut<'_>

Iterator over the lifetime parameters in self.params.

pub fn type_params(&self) -> TypeParams<'_>

Iterator over the type parameters in self.params.

pub fn type_params_mut(&mut self) -> TypeParamsMut<'_>

Iterator over the type parameters in self.params.

pub fn const_params(&self) -> ConstParams<'_>

Iterator over the constant parameters in self.params.

pub fn const_params_mut(&mut self) -> ConstParamsMut<'_>

Iterator over the constant parameters in self.params.

pub fn make_where_clause(&mut self) -> &mut WhereClause

Initializes an empty where-clause if there is not one present already.

pub fn split_for_impl( &self, ) -> (ImplGenerics<'_>, TypeGenerics<'_>, Option<&WhereClause>)

Split a type’s generics into the pieces required for impl’ing a trait for that type.

let (impl_generics, ty_generics, where_clause) = generics.split_for_impl();
quote! {
    impl #impl_generics MyTrait for #name #ty_generics #where_clause {
        // ...
    }
}
