Defines the kinds of types.

N.B., if you change this, you’ll probably want to change the corresponding AST structure in rustc_ast/src/ast.rs as well.

Variants

Bool

The primitive boolean type. Written as bool.

Char

The primitive character type; holds a Unicode scalar value (a non-surrogate code point). Written as char.

Int(IntTy)

A primitive signed integer type. For example, i32.

Uint(UintTy)

A primitive unsigned integer type. For example, u32.

Float(FloatTy)

A primitive floating-point type. For example, f64.

Adt(&'tcx AdtDef, SubstsRef<'tcx>)

Algebraic data types (ADT). For example: structures, enumerations and unions.

InternalSubsts here, possibly against intuition, may contain Params. That is, even after substitution it is possible that there are type variables. This happens when the Adt corresponds to an ADT definition and not a concrete use of it.

Foreign(DefId)

An unsized FFI type that is opaque to Rust. Written as extern type T.

Str

The pointee of a string slice. Written as str.

Array(Ty<'tcx>, &'tcx Const<'tcx>)

An array with the given length. Written as [T; n].

Slice(Ty<'tcx>)

The pointee of an array slice. Written as [T].

RawPtr(TypeAndMut<'tcx>)

A raw pointer. Written as *mut T or *const T

Ref(Region<'tcx>, Ty<'tcx>, Mutability)

A reference; a pointer with an associated lifetime. Written as &'a mut T or &'a T.

FnDef(DefId, SubstsRef<'tcx>)

The anonymous type of a function declaration/definition. Each function has a unique type, which is output (for a function named foo returning an i32) as fn() -> i32 {foo}.

For example the type of bar here:

fn foo() -> i32 { 1 }
let bar = foo; // bar: fn() -> i32 {foo}

FnPtr(PolyFnSig<'tcx>)

A pointer to a function. Written as fn() -> i32.

For example the type of bar here:

fn foo() -> i32 { 1 }
let bar: fn() -> i32 = foo;

Dynamic(&'tcx List<Binder<'tcx, ExistentialPredicate<'tcx>>>, Region<'tcx>)

A trait object. Written as dyn for<'b> Trait<'b, Assoc = u32> + Send + 'a.

Closure(DefId, SubstsRef<'tcx>)

The anonymous type of a closure. Used to represent the type of |a| a.

Generator(DefId, SubstsRef<'tcx>, Movability)

The anonymous type of a generator. Used to represent the type of |a| yield a.

GeneratorWitness(Binder<'tcx, &'tcx List<Ty<'tcx>>>)

A type representing the types stored inside a generator. This should only appear in GeneratorInteriors.

Never

The never type !.

Tuple(SubstsRef<'tcx>)

A tuple type. For example, (i32, bool). Use TyS::tuple_fields to iterate over the field types.

Projection(ProjectionTy<'tcx>)

The projection of an associated type. For example, <T as Trait<..>>::N.

Opaque(DefId, SubstsRef<'tcx>)

Opaque (impl Trait) type found in a return type. The DefId comes either from

• the impl Trait ast::Ty node,
• or the type Foo = impl Trait declaration The substitutions are for the generics of the function in question. After typeck, the concrete type can be found in the types map.

Param(ParamTy)

A type parameter; for example, T in fn f<T>(x: T) {}.

Bound(DebruijnIndex, BoundTy)

Bound type variable, used only when preparing a trait query.

Placeholder(PlaceholderType)

A placeholder type - universally quantified higher-ranked type.

Infer(InferTy)

A type variable used during type checking.

Error(DelaySpanBugEmitted)

A placeholder for a type which could not be computed; this is propagated to avoid useless error messages.
