Some part of ;; the functionality must be implemented in a language dependent way ;; and that's done by defining a "backend". The generic code finds ;; the backend by calling the function stored in the variable ;; `xref-backend-function'. A language specific mode usually makes ;; `xref-backend-function' buffer local before storing into it. ;; ;; A backend is an instance of the EIEIO class xref-backend-class. ;; Various generic functions (in the EIEIO sense of the word) are ;; defined on xref-backend-class. A language specific mode usually ;; creates a subclasses of xref-backend-class and provides specialized ;; methods for the generic functions. See the `xref--elisp-backend' ;; and `etags--xref-backend' classes for examples.
