Struct regex_syntax::hir::Literal

pub struct Literal(pub Box<[u8]>);

The high-level intermediate representation of a literal.

A literal corresponds to 0 or more bytes that should be matched literally. The smart constructors defined on Hir will automatically concatenate adjacent literals into one literal, and will even automatically replace empty literals with Hir::empty().

Note that despite a literal being represented by a sequence of bytes, its Debug implementation will attempt to print it as a normal string. (That is, not a sequence of decimal numbers.)

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Literal

fn clone(&self) -> Literal

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Literal

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq<Literal> for Literal

fn eq(&self, other: &Literal) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
