macro |
DO: This macro generates a simple scanner and recursive decent parser for the language described by this grammar. For each <non-terminal> in the grammar, a function named <name>/PARSE-<non-terminal> is generated, in addition to functions SCAN-<name> and PARSE-<name>. The grammar structure is also generated for run-time in the global special variable <name>. TERMINALS: A list describing the terminal, of form either: (terminal-name match-regexp) (terminal-name match-regexp / exclude-regexp) In the first form, if the match-regexp matches, left-anchored to the current position, then the corresponding terminal is recognized. In the second form, if the match-regexp matches, left-anchored to the current position, and the exclude-regexp DOES NOT match, left-anchored to the first position following the match, then the corresponding terminal is recognized. Note that terminals don't necessarily have a name since they may be written directly in the grammar rules as strings. SCANNER: Can be either: - T A scanner is generated. - NIL No scanner is generated. - a class-name subclass of COM.INFORMATIMAGO.COMMON-LISP.PARSER.SCANNER which is used to get tokens. SKIP-SPACES: When false, the spaces are not eaten between token. It's up to the grammar or the scanner to deal with them. (Only when a scanner is generated with :scanner t). START: The start symbol (non-terminal). RULES: A list of grammar rules. EOF-SYMBOL: The end-of-file symbol (terminal). Default is the value bound to *EOF-SYMBOL* at macroexpansion-time. TARGET-LANGUAGE: Specifies the language into which the code is generated, as a keyword. The actions must still be written as lisp expressions, but to generate the language specified. There must be a set of methods specialized on this target-language keyword. TRACE: When true, the parser functions are traced.. SYNTAX: (defgrammar <name> :terminals (( <terminal> "regexp" [ / "regexp" ]) ...) :start <non-terminal> :rules ((--> <non-terminal> <items> ) ...)) <items> ::= | <item> <items> <item> ::= <seq> | <rep> | <alt> | <opt> | <non-terminal> | <literal-terminal> | <terminal> <seq> ::= (SEQ <items> <action>) ; <items> may be empty. <rep> ::= (REP <item> <items> <action>) <opt> ::= (OPT <item> <items> <action>) <alt> ::= (ALT <item> <items>) <action> ::= | :ACTION <forms> <forms> ::= | <form> <forms> <form> ::= form -- any lisp form. <non-terminal> ::= symbol -- any lisp symbol (keywords reserved). <terminal> ::= symbol -- any lisp symbol (keywords reserved). <literal-terminal> ::= string -- any lisp string. SEMANTICS: The terminals are either named terminals listed in the :TERMINALS clause, or literal terminals written directly in the productions as lisp strings. They are matched as-is. An extended regular expression regex(7) may be given that will be matched by the scanner to infer the given terminal. The literal terminals are matched first, the longest first, and with ([A-Za-z0-9]|$) appended to terminals ending in a letter or digit (so that they don't match when part of a longer identifier). Then the regular expressions are matched in the order given. A second regexp can be given for a terminal, which must not be matched, after the first regexp, for the terminal to be recognized. (:terminals ((alpha "[A-Za-z]+" / "[0-9]"))) will recognize "abcd, efgh" as the ALPHA "abcd", but won't recognize "abcd42, efgh" as an ALPHA. :START specifies the start non-terminal symbol. The non-terminal symbols are infered implicitely from the grammar rules. If there are more than one subforms, or an action, the REP and OPT forms take an implicit SEQ: (REP a b c :ACTION f) --> (REP (SEQ a b c :ACTION f)) (OPT a b c :ACTION f) --> (OPT (SEQ a b c :ACTION f)) (REP a :ACTION f) --> (REP (SEQ a :ACTION f)) (OPT a :ACTION f) --> (OPT (SEQ a :ACTION f)) (REP a) --> (REP a) (OPT a) --> (OPT a) Embedded ALT are flattened: (ALT a b (ALT c d) e f) --> (ALT a b c d e f) Actions are executed in a lexical environment where the symbols $1, $2, etc are bound to the results of the subforms. $0 is bound to the list of the results of the subforms. In addition, for each non-terminal the non-terminal symbol is bound to the result of the corresponding subform. When the non-terminal is present several times in the production, a dot and an index number is appended. (--> example (seq thing item "," item (opt "," item :action (list item)) :action (list thing item.1 item.2 $5))) would build a list with the results of parsing thing, the two items, and the optional part. The action for REP is to return a possibly empty list of the results of its single subform repeated. (REP is 0 or more). The action for OPT is to return either NIL, or the result of its single subform unchanged. The action for an ALT is to return the result of the selected alternative unchanged. The default action for an internal SEQ is to return the list of the results of its subforms. The default action for an implicit SEQ for a given <non-terminal> lhs is to return the list of the results of its subforms prefixed by the <non-terminal> symbol. TODO: We could also flatten sequences without action, or even sequences with actions with renumbering.
