This repository includes:

  • a detailed description of the proposed Rust 1.83 lexer (in writeup)
  • a Rust reimplementation of the lexer based on that description (in src)
  • a manual list of testcases
  • a harness for running rustc's lexer in-process (via rustc_private)
  • strategies for comparing the implementation with rustc's using proptest

See also the rendered description.

Running the tests

To see what's available from the CLI:

cargo run -- --help

Note the provided rust-toolchain.toml will cause this to install the required nightly version of rustc.

At present three tests should fail: two where the comparable implementation's approximation to rustc's shebang removal isn't good enough, and one because rustc declines to lex input with unbalanced delimiters.

Building the description

mdbook build

The output will appear in book/
