The major features provided by this module are - An [fprintf]-style interface with support for user-defined printers - The printout is fit to a width by selecting some of the optional newlines - Constructs for alignment and indentation - Print ellipsis starting at a certain nesting depth - Constructs for printing lists and arrays Pretty-printing occurs in two stages: - Construct a {!Pretty.doc} object that encodes all of the elements to be printed along with alignment specifiers and optional and mandatory newlines - Format the {!Pretty.doc} to a certain width and emit it as a string, to an output stream or pass it to a user-defined function The formatting algorithm is not optimal but it does a pretty good job while still operating in linear time. The original version was based on a pretty printer by Philip Wadler which turned out to not scale to large jobs. *) (** API *) (** The type of unformated documents. Elements of this type can be * constructed in two ways. Either with a number of constructor shown below, * or using the {!Pretty.dprintf} function with a [printf]-like interface. * The {!Pretty.dprintf} method is slightly slower so we do not use it for * large jobs such as the output routines for a compiler. But we use it for * small jobs such as logging and error messages. *) type doc (** Constructors for the doc type. *) (** Constructs an empty document *) val nil : doc (** Concatenates two documents. This is an infix operator that associates to the left. *) val (++) : doc -> doc -> doc val concat : doc -> doc -> doc (** A document that prints the given string *) val text : string -> doc (** A document that prints an integer in decimal form *) val num : int -> doc (** A document that prints a 64-bit int in decimal form *) val num64 : int64 -> doc (** A document that prints a real number *) val real : float -> doc (** A document that prints a character. This is just like {!Pretty.text} with a one-character string. *) val chr : char -> doc (** A document that consists of a mandatory newline. This is just like [(text "\n")]. The new line will be indented to the current indentation level, unless you use {!Pretty.leftflush} right after this. *) val line : doc (** Use after a {!Pretty.line} to prevent the indentation. Whatever follows * next will be flushed left. Indentation resumes on the next line. *) val leftflush : doc (** A document that consists of either a space or a line break. Also called an optional line break. Such a break will be taken only if necessary to fit the document in a given width. If the break is not taken a space is printed instead. *) val break: doc (** Mark the current column as the current indentation level. Does not print anything. All taken line breaks will align to this column. The previous alignment level is saved on a stack. *) val align: doc (** Reverts to the last saved indentation level. *) val unalign: doc (** Mark the beginning of a markup section.

The marked document cannot contain line * breaks or alignment constructs. *) val markup: doc -> doc (** Formats a sequence. [sep] is a separator, [doit] is a function that * converts an element to a document. *) val seq: sep:doc -> doit:('a ->doc) -> elements:'a list -> doc (** An alternative function for printing a list. The [unit] argument is there * to make this function more easily usable with the {!Pretty.dprintf} * interface. The first argument is a separator, by default a comma. *) val docList: ?sep:doc -> ('a -> doc) -> unit -> 'a list -> doc (** sm: Yet another list printer. This one accepts the same kind of * printing function that {!Pretty.dprintf} does, and itself works * in the dprintf context.

A separator and a function that prints an array element.

The first argument for this function is a format string argument (of type [('a, unit, doc) format]; if you insist on understanding what that means see the module [Printf]). The format string is like that for the [printf] function in C, except that it understands a few more formatting controls, all starting with the @ character. See the gprintf function if you want to pipe the result of dprintf into some other functions. The following special formatting characters are understood (these do not correspond to arguments of the function): - @\[ Inserts an {!Pretty.align}. Every format string must have matching {!Pretty.align} and {!Pretty.unalign}. - @\] Inserts an {!Pretty.unalign}. - @! Inserts a {!Pretty.line}. Just like "\n" - @? Inserts a {!Pretty.break}. - @< Inserts a {!Pretty.mark}. - @> Inserts a {!Pretty.unmark}. - @^ Inserts a {!Pretty.leftflush} Should be used immediately after @! or "\n". - @@ : inserts a @ character In addition to the usual [printf] % formatting characters the following two new characters are supported: - %t Corresponds to an argument of type [unit -> doc]. This argument is invoked to produce a document - %a Corresponds to {b two} arguments. The first of type [unit -> 'a -> doc] and the second of type ['a]. (The extra [unit] is do to the peculiarities of the built-in support for format strings in Ocaml. It turns out that it is not a major problem.) Here is an example of how you use this: {v dprintf "Name=%s, SSN=%7d, Children=\@\[%a\@\]\n" pers.name pers.ssn (docList (chr ',' ++ break) text) pers.children v} The result of [dprintf] is a {!Pretty.doc}. You can format the document and emit it using the functions {!Pretty.fprint} and {!Pretty.sprint}. *) (** Like {!Pretty.dprintf} but more general. It also takes a function that is * invoked on the constructed document but before any formatting is done. The * type of the format argument means that 'a is the type of the parameters of * this function, unit is the type of the first argument to %a and %t * formats, doc is the type of the intermediate result, and 'b is the type of * the result of gprintf. *) val gprintf: (doc -> 'b) -> ('a, unit, doc, 'b) format4 -> 'a (** Format the document to the given width and emit it to the given channel *) val fprint: out_channel -> width:int -> doc -> unit (** Format the document to the given width and emit it as a string *) val sprint: width:int -> doc -> string (** Like {!Pretty.dprintf} followed by {!Pretty.fprint} *) val fprintf: out_channel -> ('a, unit, doc) format -> 'a (** Like {!Pretty.fprintf} applied to [stdout] *) val printf: ('a, unit, doc) format -> 'a (** Like {!Pretty.fprintf} applied to [stderr] *) val eprintf: ('a, unit, doc) format -> 'a (* sm: arg! why can't I write this function?! *) (* * Like {!Pretty.dprintf} but yielding a string with no newlines *) (*val sprintf: (doc, unit, doc) format -> string*) (* sm: different tack.. *) (* doesn't work either. well f it anyway *) (*val failwithf: ('a, unit, doc) format -> 'a*) (** Invokes a thunk, with printDepth temporarily set to the specified value *) val withPrintDepth : int -> (unit -> unit) -> unit (** The following variables can be used to control the operation of the printer *) (** Specifies the nesting depth of the [align]/[unalign] pairs at which everything is replaced with ellipsis *) val printDepth : int ref val printIndent : bool ref (** If false then does not indent *) (** If set to [true] then optional breaks are taken only when the document has exceeded the given width.
