package ocaml-base-compiler
iterator enables AST inspection using open recursion. A typical mapper would be based on default_iterator, a trivial iterator, and will fall back on it for handling the syntax it does not modify.
Warning: this module is unstable and part of compiler-libs.

}A iterator record implements one "method" per syntactic category, using an open recursion style: each method takes as its first argument the iterator to be applied to children in the syntax tree.
val default_iterator : iteratorA default iterator, which implements a "do not do anything" mapping.
