// revisions: rpass1 rpass2 // aux-build:respan.rs // aux-build:invalid-span-helper-lib.rs // This issue has several different parts. The high level idea is: // 1. We create an 'invalid' span with the help of the `respan` proc-macro, // The compiler attempts to prevent the creation of invalid spans by // refusing to join spans with different `SyntaxContext`s. We work around // this by applying the same `SyntaxContext` to the span of every token, // using `Span::resolved_at` // 2. We using this invalid span in the body of a function, causing it to get // encoded into the `optimized_mir` // 3. We call the function from a different crate - since the function is generic, // monomorphization runs, causing `optimized_mir` to get called. // 4. We re-run compilation using our populated incremental cache, but without // making any changes. When we recompile the crate containing our generic function // (`invalid_span_helper_lib`), we load the span from the incremental cache, and // write it into the crate metadata. extern crate invalid_span_helper_lib; fn main() { invalid_span_helper_lib::foo::(); }
