---@brief
---
--- EXPERIMENTAL: This API is unstable, do not use it. Its semantics are not yet finalized.
--- Subscribe to this issue to stay updated: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/25509
---
--- Provides operations to compare, calculate, and convert positions represented by |vim.Pos|
--- objects.

local api = vim.api
local validate = vim.validate

--- Represents a well-defined position.
---
--- A |vim.Pos| object contains the {row} and {col} coordinates of a position.
--- To create a new |vim.Pos| object, call `vim.pos()`.
---
--- Example:
--- ```lua
--- local pos1 = vim.pos(vim.api.nvim_get_current_buf(), 3, 5)
--- local pos2 = vim.pos(vim.api.nvim_get_current_buf(), 4, 0)
---
--- -- Operators are overloaded for comparing two `vim.Pos` objects.
--- if pos1 < pos2 then
---   print("pos1 comes before pos2")
--- end
---
--- if pos1 ~= pos2 then
---   print("pos1 and pos2 are different positions")
--- end
--- ```
---
--- It may include optional fields that enable additional capabilities,
--- such as format conversions.
---
---@class vim.Pos
---@field row integer 0-based byte index.
---@field col integer 0-based byte index.
---@field buf integer buffer handle.
---@field private [1] integer underlying representation of row
---@field private [2] integer underlying representation of col
---@field private [3] integer underlying representation of buf

--- Converts |vim.Pos| to `lsp.Position`.
---

---
--- -- Convert to LSP position, you can call it in a method style.

  -- we can ignore the difference between byte and character.
  if col > 0 then
    col = vim.str_utfindex(get_line(buf, row), position_encoding, col, false)
  end

  ---@type lsp.Position
  return { line = row, character = col }
end

--- Creates a new |vim.Pos| from `lsp.Position`.
---
--- Example:
--- ```lua
--- local buf = vim.api.nvim_get_current_buf()
--- local lsp_pos = {
---   line = 3,
---   character = 5
--- }
---
--- local pos = vim.pos.lsp(buf, lsp_pos, 'utf-16')
--- ```
---@param buf integer

  local row, col = pos.line, pos.character
  -- When on the first character,
  -- we can ignore the difference between byte and character.
  if col > 0 then
    -- `strict_indexing` is disabled, because LSP responses are asynchronous,
    -- and the buffer content may have changed, causing out-of-bounds errors.

---@param pos vim.Pos
---@return integer, integer
