Subject: [PATCH Rust front-end v4 09/46] gccrs: Add definitions of Rust Items in AST data structures
Date: Tue,  6 Dec 2022 11:13:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221206101417.778807-10-arthur.cohen@embecosm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221206101417.778807-1-arthur.cohen@embecosm.com>

From: The Other <simplytheother@gmail.com>

This adds the proper definitions of our AST Item nodes.
