8 // A simplified model of C++ types that can be used to check whether they are
9 // convertible between each other for the purposes of code completion ranking
10 // without looking at the ASTs. Note that we don't aim to fully mimic the C++
11 // conversion rules, merely try to have a model that gives useful improvements
12 // to the code completion ranking.
13 //
14 // We define an encoding of AST types as opaque strings, which can be stored in
15 // the index. Similar types (such as `int` and `long`) are folded together,
16 // forming equivalence classes with the same encoding.
