Some part ;; of the functionality must be implemented in a language dependent ;; way and that's done by defining a "backend". It's a function, ;; stored in the variable `xref-backend'. A language-specific mode ;; usually makes that variable buffer-local before storing into it. ;; ;; For `xref-backend' calling conventions, see its description. In ;; some cases, it has to operate with "xref" and "location" instances. ;; One would usually call `make-xref' and `xref-make-file-location' or ;; `xref-make-buffer-location' to create them. ;; ;; Another core notion is an identifier. Its representation is ;; backend-specific. By default it's a string but it can be any type. ;; Two of the actions in `xref-backend' convert it to a string and back. ;; ;; See the functions `etags-xref-backend' and `elisp-xref-backend' ;; for full examples. ;;; Code: (require 'cl-lib) (require 'eieio) (require 'ring) ;;; Locations (defclass xref-location () () :documentation "A location represents a position in a file or buffer.") ;; If a backend decides to subclass xref-location it can provide ;; methods for some of the following functions: (defgeneric xref-location-buffer (location) "Return the buffer for LOCATION.")
