get_option_text(option: TypeParserOption, value: str) str | None[source]

Get the string representation of an option for passing to parse_type_*

Parameters:
Returns:

A string representing the option if the parser supports it, otherwise None

Return type:

str | None

Parse a single type and name from a string containing their definition.

Parameters:
  • source (str) – Source code to parse

  • platform (Platform) – Platform to assume the types are relevant to

  • existing_types (types.TypeContainerType | None) – Optional container of all existing types to use for parsing context

Returns:

A tuple of (result, errors) where result is a tuple of (type, name) or None of there was a fatal error.

Return type:

Tuple[Tuple[types.QualifiedNameType, Type] | None, List[TypeParserError]]

Parse an entire block of source into types, variables, and functions

Parameters:
  • source (str) – Source code to parse

  • file_name (str) – Name of the file containing the source (optional: exists on disk)

  • platform (Platform) – Platform to assume the types are relevant to

  • existing_types (types.TypeContainerType | None) – Optional container of all existing types to use for parsing context

  • options (List[str] | None) – Optional string arguments to pass as options, e.g. command line arguments

  • include_dirs (List[str] | None) – Optional list of directories to include in the header search path

  • auto_type_source (str) – Optional source of types if used for automatically generated types

Returns:

A tuple of (result, errors) where the result is None if there was a fatal error

Return type:

Tuple[TypeParserResult | None, List[TypeParserError]]

preprocess_source(source: str, file_name: str, platform: Platform, existing_types: types.TypeContainerType | None = None, options: List[str] | None = None, include_dirs: List[str] | None = None) Tuple[str | None, List[TypeParserError]][source]

Preprocess a block of source, returning the source that would be parsed

Parameters:
  • source (str) – Source code to process

  • file_name (str) – Name of the file containing the source (does not need to exist on disk)

  • platform (Platform) – Platform to assume the source is relevant to

  • existing_types (types.TypeContainerType | None) – Optional collection of all existing types to use for parsing context

  • options (List[str] | None) – Optional string arguments to pass as options, e.g. command line arguments

  • include_dirs (List[str] | None) – Optional list of directories to include in the header search path

Returns:

A tuple of (preproccessed source, errors), where the preproccessed source is None if there was a fatal error.

Return type:

Tuple[str | None, List[TypeParserError]]
