;;; Commentary:

;; This file provides a somewhat generic infrastructure for cross
;; referencing commands, in particular "find-definition".
;;
;; Some part of the functionality must be implemented in a language
;; dependent way and that's done by defining `xref-find-function',
;; `xref-identifier-at-point-function' and
;; `xref-identifier-completion-table-function', which see.
;;
;; A major mode should make these variables buffer-local first.
;;
;; `xref-find-function' can be called in several ways, see its
;; description.  It has to operate with "xref" and "location" values.
;;
;; One would usually call `make-xref' and `xref-make-file-location',
;; `xref-make-buffer-location' or `xref-make-bogus-location' to create
;; them.  More generally, a location must be an instance of an EIEIO
;; class inheriting from `xref-location' and implementing
;; `xref-location-group' and `xref-location-marker'.
;;
;; Each identifier must be represented as a string.  Implementers can
;; use string properties to store additional information about the
;; identifier, but they should keep in mind that values returned from
;; `xref-identifier-completion-table-function' should still be
;; distinct, because the user can't see the properties when making the
;; choice.
;;
;; See the functions `etags-xref-find' and `elisp-xref-find' for full
;; examples.
