Streams and parsers.
Raised by parsers when none of the first components of the stream patterns is accepted.
Raised by parsers when the first component of a stream pattern is accepted, but one of the following components is rejected.
Stream builders
val from : (int -> 'a option) -> 'a tStream.from f returns a stream built from the function f. To create a new stream element, the function f is called with the current stream count. The user function f must return either Some <value> for a value or None to specify the end of the stream.
Do note that the indices passed to f may not start at 0 in the general case. For example, [< '0; '1; Stream.from f >] would call f the first time with count 2.
val of_list : 'a list -> 'a tReturn the stream holding the elements of the list in the same order.
val of_string : string -> char tReturn the stream of the characters of the string parameter.
val of_bytes : bytes -> char tReturn the stream of the characters of the bytes parameter.
val of_channel : in_channel -> char tReturn the stream of the characters read from the input channel.
Stream iterator
val iter : ('a -> unit) -> 'a t -> unitStream.iter f s scans the whole stream s, applying function f in turn to each stream element encountered.
Predefined parsers
val next : 'a t -> 'aReturn the first element of the stream and remove it from the stream.
val empty : 'a t -> unitReturn () if the stream is empty, else raise Stream.Failure.
Useful functions
val peek : 'a t -> 'a optionReturn Some of "the first element" of the stream, or None if the stream is empty.
val junk : 'a t -> unitRemove the first element of the stream, possibly unfreezing it before.
val count : 'a t -> intReturn the current count of the stream elements, i.e. the number of the stream elements discarded.
val npeek : int -> 'a t -> 'a listnpeek n returns the list of the n first elements of the stream, or all its remaining elements if less than n elements are available.
