net_of_conv : term -> 'a -> (int * 'a) net -> (int * 'a) net

SYNOPSIS
The underlying machinery in rewriting and simplification assembles (conditional) rewrite rules and other conversions into a net, including a priority number so that, for example, pure rewrites get applied before conditional rewrites. A call net_of_conv `pat` cnv net will add cnv to net with priority 2 (lower than pure rewrites but higher than conditional ones) to give a new net; this net can be used by REWRITES_CONV, for example. The term pat is a pattern used inside the net to place conv appropriately (see enter for more details). This means that cnv will never even be tried on terms that clearly cannot be instances of pat.

FAILURE CONDITIONS
Never fails.
