Low-level Rust lexer.

Tokens produced by this lexer are not yet ready for parsing the Rust syntax, for that see librustc_parse::lexer, which converts this basic token stream into wide tokens used by actual parser.

The purpose of this crate is to convert raw sources into a labeled sequence of well-known token types, so building an actual Rust token stream will be easier.

Main entity of this crate is TokenKind enum which represents common lexeme types.
