simplify.rs

1//! Simplification of where-clauses and parameter bounds into a prettier and
2//! more canonical form.
3//!
4//! Currently all cross-crate-inlined function use `rustc_middle::ty` to reconstruct
5//! the AST (e.g., see all of `clean::inline`), but this is not always a
6//! non-lossy transformation. The current format of storage for where-clauses
7//! for functions and such is simply a list of predicates. One example of this
8//! is that the AST predicate of: `where T: Trait<Foo = Bar>` is encoded as:
9//! `where T: Trait, <T as Trait>::Foo = Bar`.
10//!
11//! This module attempts to reconstruct the original where and/or parameter
12//! bounds by special casing scenarios such as these. Fun!
