[−][src]Macro nom::opt_res

macro_rules! opt_res {
    ($i:expr, $submac:ident!( $($args:tt)* )) => { ... };
    ($i:expr, $f:expr) => { ... };
}

opt_res!(I -> IResult<I,O>) => I -> IResult<I, Result<nom::Err,O>> make the underlying parser optional

returns a Result, with Err containing the parsing error

ⓘThis example is not tested
