170 // Format text given a format string and replacement parameters.
172 // ===General Description===
174 // Formats textual output. `Fmt` is a string consisting of one or more
175 // replacement sequences with the following grammar:
177 // rep_field ::= "{" [index] ["," layout] [":" format] "}"
178 // index ::= <non-negative integer>
179 // layout ::= [[[char]loc]width]
180 // format ::= <any string not containing "{" or "}">
181 // char ::= <any character except "{" or "}">
182 // loc ::= "-" | "=" | "+"
183 // width ::= <positive integer>
185 // index - A non-negative integer specifying the index of the item in the
186 // parameter pack to print. Any other value is invalid.
187 // layout - A string controlling how the field is laid out within the available
189 // format - A type-dependent string used to provide additional options to
190 // the formatting operation. Refer to the documentation of the
191 // various individual format providers for per-type options.
192 // char - The padding character. Defaults to ' ' (space). Only valid if
193 // `loc` is also specified.
194 // loc - Where to print the formatted text within the field. Only valid if
195 // `width` is also specified.
196 // '-' : The field is left aligned within the available space.
197 // '=' : The field is centered within the available space.
198 // '+' : The field is right aligned within the available space (this
200 // width - The width of the field within which to print the formatted text.
201 // If this is less than the required length then the `char` and `loc`
202 // fields are ignored, and the field is printed with no leading or
203 // trailing padding. If this is greater than the required length,
204 // then the text is output according to the value of `loc`, and padded
205 // as appropriate on the left and/or right by `char`.
207 // ===Special Characters===
209 // The characters '{' and '}' are reserved and cannot appear anywhere within a
210 // replacement sequence. Outside of a replacement sequence, in order to print
211 // a literal '{' or '}' it must be doubled -- "{{" to print a literal '{' and
212 // "}}" to print a literal '}'.
214 // ===Parameter Indexing===
215 // `index` specifies the index of the parameter in the parameter pack to format
216 // into the output. Note that it is possible to refer to the same parameter
217 // index multiple times in a given format string. This makes it possible to
218 // output the same value multiple times without passing it multiple times to the
219 // function. For example:
221 // formatv("{0} {1} {0}", "a", "bb")
223 // would yield the string "abba". This can be convenient when it is expensive
224 // to compute the value of the parameter, and you would otherwise have had to
225 // save it to a temporary.
227 // ===Formatter Search===
229 // For a given parameter of type T, the following steps are executed in order
230 // until a match is found:
232 // 1. If the parameter is of class type, and inherits from format_adapter,
233 // Then format() is invoked on it to produce the formatted output. The
234 // implementation should write the formatted text into `Stream`.
235 // 2. If there is a suitable template specialization of format_provider<>
236 // for type T containing a method whose signature is:
237 // void format(const T &Obj, raw_ostream &Stream, StringRef Options)
238 // Then this method is invoked as described in Step 1.
239 // 3. If an appropriate operator<< for raw_ostream exists, it will be used.
240 // For this to work, (raw_ostream& << const T&) must return raw_ostream&.
242 // If a match cannot be found through either of the above methods, a compiler
243 // error is generated.
245 // ===Invalid Format String Handling===
247 // In the case of a format string which does not match the grammar described
248 // above, the output is undefined. With asserts enabled, LLVM will trigger an
249 // assertion. Otherwise, it will try to do something reasonable, but in general
250 // the details of what that is are undefined.
