# Module Location

    module Location: sig .. end

Source code locations (ranges of positions), used in parsetree.

    type t = {

`` | `loc_start : `Lexing.position`;`
`` | `loc_end : `Lexing.position`;`
`` | `loc_ghost : `bool`;`

}
Note on the use of Lexing.position in this module. If `pos_fname = ""`, then use `!input_name` instead. If `pos_lnum = -1`, then `pos_bol = 0`. Use `pos_cnum` and re-parse the file to get the line and character numbers. Else all fields are correct.

    val none : t

An arbitrary value of type `t`; describes an empty ghost range.

    val in_file : string -> t

Return an empty ghost range located in a given file.

    val init : Lexing.lexbuf -> string -> unit

Set the file name and line number of the `lexbuf` to be the start of the named file.

    val curr : Lexing.lexbuf -> t

Get the location of the current token from the `lexbuf`.

    val symbol_rloc : unit -> t

    val symbol_gloc : unit -> t

    val rhs_loc : int -> t

`rhs_loc n` returns the location of the symbol at position `n`, starting at 1, in the current parser rule.

    val echo_eof : unit -> unit

    val reset : unit -> unit

    val warning_printer : (t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit) ref

Hook for intercepting warnings.

    val default_warning_printer : t -> Format.formatter -> Warnings.t -> unit

Original warning printer for use in hooks.

    val print_compact : Format.formatter -> t -> unit

    val print_filename : Format.formatter -> string -> unit

    val absolute_path : string -> string

    val show_filename : string -> string

In -absname mode, return the absolute path for this filename. Otherwise, returns the filename unchanged.

`` | `loc : `t`;`
`` | `msg : `string`;`
