Class Description


Implementation of the default parser of module ALib Expressions.

This internal class is not too well documented. Nevertheless, it is designed to be able to tweak its behavior slightly and in case of need, even derive and use a custom parser class. For doing so, please consult the source code of this class. A custom parser might be set to protected field Compiler::parserby a derived compiler type prior to compiling a first expression.

It is possible to define scannable custom unary and binary operators. Definitions of binary operators include a "precedence value" that allows to align them with the built-in types. Also, built-in operators can be removed if wanted.

Definition at line 620 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ getUnaryOp()

Definition at line 582 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ NextToken()

void NextToken ( )
protected

This is the "scanner" or "lexer" method.

Definition at line 107 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ Parse()

detail::AST * Parse ( const String exprString,
NumberFormat nf,
MonoAllocator allocator 
)
overridevirtual

Parses the given expression string.

Note
The return value is hidden by using void*. This is to allow avoid flooding of boost header includes files to the code entities using module ALib Expressions.
Parameters
exprStringThe string to parse.
nfUsed to scan number literals.
allocatorAllocator to create temporary objects.
Returns
The abstract syntax tree representing the expression.

Definition at line 321 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ parseBinary()

AST * parseBinary ( )
protected

Internal method that optionally parses a binary operator and levels (recursively) trees of such according to operator precedence and brackets given.

Returns
T.

Definition at line 387 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ parseConditional()

AST * parseConditional ( )
protected

Internal method that optionally parses a conditional operator (Q ? T : F )

Returns
T.

Definition at line 353 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ parseSimple()

AST * parseSimple ( )
protected

Parses unary ops, literals, identifiers, functions and expressions surrounded by brackets.

Returns
The abstract syntax tree node parsed.

Definition at line 443 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ parseSubscript()

AST * parseSubscript ( AST function)
protected

Invoked after an identifier or function was parsed. Tests for subscript operator, otherwise returns teh given ast as is.

Parameters
functionThe identifier or function parsed.
Returns
Either the given node or a node of type ASTBinaryOp with lhs set to function, rhs to the parsed subscript arg and and operator set to '[]'.

Definition at line 552 of file parser_impl.cpp.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ pop()

AST* pop ( )
inlineprotected

Simple shortcut popping and returning last ast from the current list.

Returns

Definition at line 256 of file parser_impl.hpp.

◆ push()

Member Data Documentation

◆ ASTs

std::vector<AST*, StdContMA<AST*> >* ASTs
protected

List of ASTs currently created in recursion.

Note
This vector is created in the monotonic allocator and never even deleted, as all inserted AST elements, exclusively allocate from the same temporary allocator.

protected

Hash set of binary operators. The key of the table is the operator string, which usually consists of one to three characters, like '+' or '<<='.

This table is filled in the constructor of the class with the values stored in Compiler::BinaryOperators and used for testing of existence.

Definition at line 152 of file parser_impl.hpp.

◆ compiler

Compiler& compiler
protected

The compiler that this parser works for.
