# Struct proc_macro::Literal 1.29.0[−][src]

    pub struct Literal { /* fields omitted */ }

A literal string (`"hello"`), byte string (`b"hello"`), character (`'a'`), byte character (`b'a'`), an integer or floating point number with or without a suffix (`1`, `1u8`, `2.3`, `2.3f32`). Boolean literals like `true` and `false` do not belong here, they are `Ident`s.

## Methods

###

`impl Literal`

[src]

####

`pub fn u8_suffixed(n: u8) -> Literal`

`pub fn f32_unsuffixed(n: f32) -> Literal`

[src]

Creates a new unsuffixed floating-point literal.

This constructor is similar to those like `Literal::i8_unsuffixed` where the float's value is emitted directly into the token but no suffix is used, so it may be inferred to be a `f64` later in the compiler. Literals created from negative numbers may not survive rountrips through `TokenStream` or strings and may be broken into two tokens (`-` and positive literal).

# Panics

This function requires that the specified float is finite, for example if it is infinity or NaN this function will panic.

####

`pub fn f32_suffixed(n: f32) -> Literal`

[src]

Creates a new suffixed floating-point literal.

This consturctor will create a literal like `1.0f32` where the value specified is the preceding part of the token and `f32` is the suffix of the token. This token will always be inferred to be an `f32` in the compiler. Literals created from negative numbers may not survive rountrips through `TokenStream` or strings and may be broken into two tokens (`-` and positive literal).

# Panics

This function requires that the specified float is finite, for example if it is infinity or NaN this function will panic.

####

`pub fn f64_unsuffixed(n: f64) -> Literal`

[src]

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g. `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
