Request for explanation of abbreviation in F# compiler codebase #49

Closed dsyme closed 8 years ago

dsyme commented 8 years ago

Steven Taylor asked me to add information to the compiler guide about some of the abbreviations being used in the compiler codebase:

typar
TyparStaticReq
weird syntax:   # 61 "..\pppars.fsy"
tspec_scoref2scoref_tyvar2typ
gparams_scoref2scoref_tyvar2typ
Is g global?
celem_typ2typ
cnamedarg_typ2typ - the c in the above?
mimpl_typ2typ
ResFormatNode -  What is a ResFormat?
