package ocamlformat-lib

type t is the result of parsing.

parse_comment ~location ~text parses text as an ocamldoc formatted string. The parser will try to recover from any invalid syntax encountered, and therefore this will always produce a result without raising exceptions with zero or more warnings. The location passed in should represent the start of the content of the documentation comment - so for a line such as

(** A comment starting in the first column (0) *)

the location should represent the space immediately before the A, so the in the 4th column (e.g. {... pos_bol=0; pos_cnum=3 })

Locations in files.

Warnings produced during parsing.

Extract any warnings from the parser result.

Extract the Ast.t from the parser result.

Helper function to turn the internal representation of positions back into the usual representation in the Lexing module. Note that this relies on the information passed in parse_comment, and hence requires the result of that call in addition to the Loc.point being converted.
