val gen_symbol : ?prefix:Ppx_core__.Import.string ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.unit ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.string

gen_symbol ?prefix () generates a fresh variable name with prefix.

  • Parameter prefix: default = "_x"
val assert_no_attributes_in : Ast_traverse.iter
val get_type_param_name : (Ppx_core__.Import.core_type * Ppx_core__.Import.variance) ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.string Loc.t

get_tparam_id tp

  • Returns the string identifier associated with tp if it is a type parameter.

Returns whether the given type declarations refer to themselves.

short_circuit allows you to override the search for certain type expressions.

stop_on_functions allows to disregard the recursive occurences appearing in arrow types. The default is to disregard them.

val loc_of_attribute : Ppx_core__.Import.attribute ‑> Location.t
val curry_applications : Ppx_core__.Import.expression ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.expression

convert multi-arg function applications into a cascade of 1-arg applications

val attribute_of_warning : Location.t ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.string ‑> Ppx_core__.Import.attribute

Encode a warning message into an 'ocaml.ppwarning' attribute which can be inserted in a generated Parsetree. The compiler will be responsible for reporting the warning.
