rust-analyzer needs to be able to visit types when treating not only `Ty`, `Const`, `Region` and `Predicate` specifically, but *all* rust-analyzer-made types specifically (excluding e.g. `TraitRef`, that is declared in rustc_type_ir). This is needed to implement garbage collection. To support this, we introduce a second, rust-analyzer-only visit trait, named `GenericTypeVisitable`. It's simpler than `TypeVisitable` (for example, it does not have a trait for the visitor, and does not support early-returning) because this is what rust-analyzer needs, but its most distinguished feature is that the visitor is a generic of the *trait* instead of the *method*. This way, specific types can treat specific visitor types specifically and call their methods. In rustc_type_ir we implement it for a bunch of basic types, and using a derive macro for the rest. The macro and trait are completely disabled when compiling for rustc (`feature = "nightly"`), so not even a compile time penalty will be paid. |

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
