//! Demangle Rust compiler symbol names.
//!
//! This crate provides a `demangle` function which will return a `Demangle`
//! sentinel value that can be used to learn about the demangled version of a
//! symbol name. The demangled representation will be the same as the original
//! if it doesn't look like a mangled symbol name.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! ```
//! use rustc_demangle::demangle;
//!
//! assert_eq!(demangle("_ZN4testE").to_string(), "test");
//! assert_eq!(demangle("_ZN3foo3barE").to_string(), "foo::bar");
//! assert_eq!(demangle("foo").to_string(), "foo");
//! ```

/// De-mangles a Rust symbol into a more readable version
///
/// All rust symbols by default are mangled as they contain characters that
/// cannot be represented in all object files. The mangling mechanism is similar
/// to C++'s, but Rust has a few specifics to handle items like lifetimes in
/// symbols.
///
/// This function will take a **mangled** symbol (typically acquired from a
/// `Symbol` which is in turn resolved from a `Frame`) and then writes the
/// de-mangled version into the given `writer`. If the symbol does not look like
/// a mangled symbol, it is still written to `writer`.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use rustc_demangle::demangle;
///
/// assert_eq!(demangle("_ZN4testE").to_string(), "test");
/// assert_eq!(demangle("_ZN3foo3barE").to_string(), "foo::bar");
/// assert_eq!(demangle("foo").to_string(), "foo");
/// ```

// All rust symbols are in theory lists of "::"-separated identifiers. Some
// assemblers, however, can't handle these characters in symbol names. To get
// around this, we use C++-style mangling. The mangling method is:
//
// 1. Prefix the symbol with "_ZN"
// 2. For each element of the path, emit the length plus the element
// 3. End the path with "E"
//
// For example, "_ZN4testE" => "test" and "_ZN3foo3barE" => "foo::bar".
//
// We're the ones printing our backtraces, so we can't rely on anything else to
// demangle our symbols. It's *much* nicer to look at demangled symbols, so
// this function is implemented to give us nice pretty output.
//
// Note that this demangler isn't quite as fancy as it could be. We have lots
// of other information in our symbols like hashes, version, type information,
// etc. Additionally, this doesn't handle glue symbols at all.
