NAME

       Ast_iterator - Ast_iterator.iterator allows to implement AST inspection using open recursion.

Module

       Module   Ast_iterator

       Module Ast_iterator
        : sig end

       Ast_iterator.iterator allows to implement AST inspection using open recursion.  A typical mapper would be
       based on Ast_iterator.default_iterator , a trivial iterator, and will fall back on it  for  handling  the
       syntax it does not modify.

       A  iterator  record  implements  one "method" per syntactic category, using an open recursion style: each
       method takes as its first argument the iterator to be applied to children in the syntax tree.

       val default_iterator : iterator

       A default iterator, which implements a "do not do anything" mapping.
