# 1.29.0[−][src]Struct proc_macro::Group

    pub struct Group(_);

A delimited token stream.

A `Group` internally contains a `TokenStream` which is surrounded by `Delimiter`s.

## Methods

### `impl Group`[src]

#### `pub fn new(delimiter: Delimiter, stream: TokenStream) -> Group`[src]

Creates a new `Group` with the given delimiter and token stream.

This constructor will set the span for this group to `Span::call_site()`. To change the span you can use the `set_span` method below.

#### `pub fn delimiter(&self) -> Delimiter`[src]

Returns the delimiter of this `Group`

#### `pub fn stream(&self) -> TokenStream`[src]

Returns the `TokenStream` of tokens that are delimited in this `Group`.

Note that the returned token stream does not include the delimiter returned above.

#### `pub fn span(&self) -> Span`[src]

Returns the span for the delimiters of this token stream, spanning the entire `Group`.

    pub fn span(&self) -> Span {
               ^^^^^^^

#### `pub fn span_open(&self) -> Span`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`proc_macro_span` #54725)

Returns the span pointing to the opening delimiter of this group.

    pub fn span_open(&self) -> Span {
                    ^

#### `pub fn span_close(&self) -> Span`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`proc_macro_span` #54725)

Returns the span pointing to the closing delimiter of this group.

    pub fn span_close(&self) -> Span {
                           ^

#### `pub fn set_span(&mut self, span: Span)`[src]

Configures the span for this `Group`'s delimiters, but not its internal tokens.

This method will not set the span of all the internal tokens spanned by this group, but rather it will only set the span of the delimiter tokens at the level of the `Group`.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
