-
-This file contains the migration of PCCTS from 1.31 in the order that
-changes were made. 1.32b7 is the last beta before full 1.32.
-Terence Parr, Parr Research Corporation 1995.

-
-======================================================================
-1.32b1
-Added Russell Quong to banner, changed banner for output slightly
-Fixed it so that you have before / after actions for C++ in class def
-Fixed bug in optimizer that made it sometimes forget to set internal
- token pointers. Only showed up when a {...} was in the "wrong spot".
-
-======================================================================
-1.32b2
-Added fixes by Dave Seidel for PC compilers in 32 bit mode (config.h
-and set.h).
-
-======================================================================
-1.32b3
-Fixed hideous bug in code generator for wildcard and for ~token op.
-
-from Dave Seidel
-
- Added pcnames.bat
- 1. in antlr/main.c: change strcasecmp() to stricmp()
-
- 2. in dlg/output.c: use DLEXER_C instead on "DLexer.C"
-
- 3. in h/PBlackBox.h: use <iostream.h> instead of <stream.h>
-
-======================================================================
-1.32b4
-When the -ft option was used, any path prefix screwed up
-the gate on the .h files
-
-Fixed yet another bug due to the optimizer.
-
-The exception handling thing was a bit wacko:
-
-a : ( A B )? A B
- | A C
- ;
- exception ...
-
-caused an exception if "A C" was the input. In other words,
-it found that A C didn't match the (A B)? pred and caused
-an exception rather than trying the next alt. All I did
-was to change the zzmatch_wsig() macros.
-
-Fixed some problems in gen.c relating to the name of token
-class bit sets in the output.
-
-Added the tremendously cool generalized predicate. For the
-moment, I'll give this bried description.
-
-a : <<predicate>>? blah
- | foo
- ;
-
-This implies that (assuming blah and foo are syntactically
-ambiguous) "predicate" indicates the semantic validity of
-applying "blah". If "predicate" is false, "foo" is attempted.
-
-Previously, you had to say:
-
-a : <<LA(1)==ID ? predicate : 1>>? ID
- | ID
- ;
-
-Now, you can simply use "predicate" without the ?: operator
-if you turn on ANTLR command line option: "-prc on". This
-tells ANTLR to compute that all by itself. It computes n
-tokens of lookahead where LT(n) or LATEXT(n) is the farthest
-ahead you look.
-
-If you give a predicate using "-prc on" that is followed
-by a construct that can recognize more than one n-sequence,
-you will get a warning from ANTLR. For example,
-
-a : <<isTypeName(LT(1)->getText())>>? (ID|INT)
- ;
-
-This is wrong because the predicate will be applied to INTs
-as well as ID's. You should use this syntax to make
-the predicate more specific:
-
-a : (ID)? => <<isTypeName(LT(1)->getText())>>? (ID|INT)
- ;
-
-which says "don't apply the predicate unless ID is the
-current lookahead context".
-
-You cannot currently have anything in the "(context)? =>"
-except sequences such as:
-
-( LPAREN ID | LPAREN SCOPE )? => <<pred>>?
-
-I haven't tested this THAT much, but it does work for the
-C++ grammar.
-
-======================================================================
-1.32b5
-
-Added getLine() to the ANTLRTokenBase and DLGBasedToken classes
-left line() for backward compatibility.
-----
-Removed SORCERER_TRANSFORM from the ast.h stuff.
--------
-Fixed bug in code gen of ANTLR such that nested syn preds work more
-efficiently now. The ANTLRTokenBuffer was getting very large
-with nested predicates.
-------
-Memory leak is now gone from ANTLRTokenBuf; all tokens are deleted.
-For backward compatibility reasons, you have to say parser->deleteTokens()
-or mytokenbuffer->deleteTokens() but later it will be the default mode.
-Say this after the parser is constructed. E.g.,
-
- ParserBlackBox<DLGLexer, MyParser, ANTLRToken> p(stdin);
- p.parser()->deleteTokens();
- p.parser()->start_symbol();
-
-
-==============================
-1.32b6
-
-Changed so that deleteTokens() will do a delete ((ANTLRTokenBase *))
-on the ptr. This gets the virtual destructor.
-
-Fixed some weird things in the C++ header files (a few return types).
-
-Made the AST routines correspond to the book and SORCERER stuff.
-
-New token stuff: See testcpp/14/test.g
-
-ANTLR accepts a #pragma gc_tokens which says
-[1] Generate label = copy(LT(1)) instead of label=LT(1) for
- all labeled token references.
-[2] User now has to define ANTLRTokenPtr (as a class or a typedef
- to just a pointer) as well as the ANTLRToken class itself.
- See the example.
-
-To delete tokens in token buffer, use deleteTokens() message on parser.
-
- All tokens that fall off the ANTLRTokenBuffer get deleted
- which is what currently happens when deleteTokens() message
- has been sent to token buffer.
-
-We always generate ANTLRTokenPtr instead of 'ANTLRToken *' now.
-Then if no pragma set, ANTLR generates a
-
- class ANTLRToken;
- typedef ANTLRToken *ANTLRTokenPtr;
-
-in each file.
-
-Made a warning for x:rule_ref <<$x>>; still no warning for $i's, however.
-class BB {
-
-a : x:b y:A <<$x
-$y>>
- ;
-
-b : B;

-Antlr parser generator Version 1.32b6 1989-1995
-test.g, line 3: error: There are no token ptrs for rule references: '$x'
-
-===================
-1.32b7:
-
-[With respect to token object garbage collection (GC), 1.32b7
- backtracks from 1.32b6, but results in better and less intrusive GC.
- This is the last beta version before full 1.32.]
-
-BIGGEST CHANGES:
-
-o The "#pragma gc_tokens" is no longer used.
-
-o .C files are now .cpp files (hence, makefiles will have to
- be changed; or you can rerun genmk). This is a good move,
- but causes some backward incompatibility problems. You can
- avoid this by changing CPP_FILE_SUFFIX to ".C" in pccts/h/config.h.
-
-o The token object class hierarchy has been flattened to include
- only three classes: ANTLRAbstractToken, ANTLRCommonToken, and
- ANTLRCommonNoRefCountToken. The common token now does garbage
- collection via ref counting.
-
-o "Smart" pointers are now used for garbage collection. That is,
- ANTLRTokenPtr is used instead of "ANTLRToken *".
-
-o The antlr.1 man page has been cleaned up slightly.
-
-o The SUN C++ compiler now complains less about C++ support code.
-
-o Grammars which subclass ANTLRCommonToken must wrap all token
- pointer references in mytoken(token_ptr). This is the only
- serious backward incompatibility. See below.
-
-
-MINOR CHANGES:
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-1 deleteTokens()
-
-The deleteTokens() message to the parser or token buffer has been changed
-to one of:
-
- void noGarbageCollectTokens() { inputTokens->noGarbageCollectTokens(); }
- void garbageCollectTokens() { inputTokens->garbageCollectTokens(); }
-
-The token buffer deletes all non-referenced tokens by default now.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-2 makeToken()
-
-The makeToken() message returns a new type. The function should look
-like:
-
- virtual ANTLRAbstractToken *makeToken(ANTLRTokenType tt,
- ANTLRChar *txt,
- int line)
- {
- ANTLRAbstractToken *t = new ANTLRCommonToken(tt,txt);
- t->setLine(line);
- return t;
- }
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-3 TokenType
-
-Changed TokenType-> ANTLRTokenType (often forces changes in AST defs due
-to #[] constructor called to AST(tokentype, string)).
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-4 AST()
-
-You must define AST(ANTLRTokenPtr t) now in your AST class definition.
-You might also have to include ATokPtr.h above the definition; e.g.,
-if AST is defined in a separate file, such as AST.h, it's a good idea
-to include ATOKPTR_H (ATokPtr.h). For example,
-
- #include ATOKPTR_H
- class AST : public ASTBase {
- protected:
- ANTLRTokenPtr token;
- public:
- AST(ANTLRTokenPtr t) { token = t; }
- void preorder_action() {
- char *s = token->getText();
- printf(" %s", s);
- }
- };
-
-Note the use of smart pointers rather than "ANTLRToken *".
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-5 SUN C++
-
-From robertb oakhill.sps.mot.com Bob Bailey. Changed ANTLR C++ output
-to avoid an error in Sun C++ 3.0.1. Made "public" return value
-structs created to hold multiple return values public.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-6 genmk
-
-Fixed genmk so that target List.* is not included anymore. It's
-called SList.* anyway.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-7 \r vs \n
-
-Scott Vorthmann <vorth cmu.edu> fixed antlr.g in ANTLR so that \r
-is allowed as the return character as well as \n.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-8 Exceptions
-
-Bug in exceptions attached to labeled token/tokclass references. Didn't gen
-code for exceptions. This didn't work:
-
-a : "help" x:ID
- ;
- exception[x]
- catch MismatchedToken : <<printf("eh?\n");>>
-
-Now ANTLR generates (which is kinda big, but necessary):
-
- if ( !_match_wsig(ID) ) {
- if ( guessing ) goto fail;
- _signal=MismatchedToken;
- switch ( _signal ) {
- case MismatchedToken :
- printf("eh?\n");
- _signal = NoSignal;
- break;
- default :
- goto _handler;
- }
- }
-
-which implies that you can recover and continue parsing after a missing/bad
-token reference.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-9 genmk
-
-genmk now correctly uses config file for CPP_FILE_SUFFIX stuff.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-10 general cleanup / PURIFY
-
-Anthony Green <green vizbiz.com> suggested a bunch of good general
-clean up things for the code; he also suggested a few things to
-help out the "PURIFY" memory allocation checker.
-
---------------------------------------------------------
-11 $-variable references.
-
-Manuel ORNATO indicated that a $-variable outside of a rule caused
-ANTLR to crash. I fixed this.
-
-12 Tom Moog suggestion
-
-Fail action of semantic predicate needs "{}" envelope. FIXED.
-
-13 references to LT(1).
-
-I have enclosed all assignments such as:
-
- _t22 = (ANTLRTokenPtr)LT(1);
-
-in "if ( !guessing )" so that during backtracking the reference count
-for token objects is not increased.
-
-
-TOKEN OBJECT GARBAGE COLLECTION
-
-1 INTRODUCTION
-
-The class ANTLRCommonToken is now garbaged collected through a "smart"
-pointer called ANTLRTokenPtr using reference counting. Any token
-object not referenced by your grammar actions is destroyed by the
-ANTLRTokenBuffer when it must make room for more token objects.
-Referenced tokens are then destroyed in your parser when local
-ANTLRTokenPtr objects are deleted. For example,
-
-a : label:ID ;
-
-would be converted to something like:
-
-void yourclass::a(void)
-{
- zzRULE;
- ANTLRTokenPtr label=NULL; // used to be ANTLRToken *label;
- zzmatch(ID);
- label = (ANTLRTokenPtr)LT(1);
- consume();
- ...
-}
-
-When the "label" object is destroyed (it's just a pointer to your
-input token object LT(1)), it decrements the reference count on the
-object created for the ID. If the count goes to zero, the object
-pointed by label is deleted.
-
-To correctly manage the garbage collection, you should use
-ANTLRTokenPtr instead of "ANTLRToken *". Most ANTLR support code
-(visible to the user) has been modified to use the smart pointers.
-
-***************************************************************
-Remember that any local objects that you create are not deleted when a
-lonjmp() is executed. Unfortunately, the syntactic predicates (...)?
-use setjmp()/longjmp(). There are some situations when a few tokens
-will "leak".
-***************************************************************
-
-2 DETAILS
-
-o The default is to perform token object garbage collection.
- You may use parser->noGarbageCollectTokens() to turn off
- garbage collection.
-
-
-o The type ANTLRTokenPtr is always defined now (automatically).
- If you do not wish to use smart pointers, you will have to
- redefined ANTLRTokenPtr by subclassing, changing the header
- file or changing ANTLR's code generation (easy enough to
- do in gen.c).
-
-o If you don't use ParserBlackBox, the new initialization sequence is:
-
- ANTLRTokenPtr aToken = new ANTLRToken;
- scan.setToken(mytoken(aToken));
-
- where mytoken(aToken) gets an ANTLRToken * from the smart pointer.
-
-o Define C++ preprocessor symbol DBG_REFCOUNTTOKEN to see a bunch of
- debugging stuff for reference counting if you suspect something.
-
-
-3 WHY DO I HAVE TO TYPECAST ALL MY TOKEN POINTERS NOW??????
-
-If you subclass ANTLRCommonToken and then attempt to refer to one of
-your token members via a token pointer in your grammar actions, the
-C++ compiler will complain that your token object does not have that
-member. For example, if you used to do this
-
-<<
-class ANTLRToken : public ANTLRCommonToken {
- int muck;
- ...
-};
->>
-
-class Foo {
-a : t:ID << t->muck = ...; >> ;
-}
-
-Now, you must do change the t->muck reference to:
-
-a : t:ID << mytoken(t)->muck = ...; >> ;
-
-in order to downcast 't' to be an "ANTLRToken *" not the
-"ANTLRAbstractToken *" resulting from ANTLRTokenPtr::operator->().
-The macro is defined as:
-
-/*
- * Since you cannot redefine operator->() to return one of the user's
- * token object types, we must down cast. This is a drag. Here's
- * a macro that helps. template: "mytoken(a-smart-ptr)->myfield".
- */
-#define mytoken(tp) ((ANTLRToken *)(tp.operator->()))
-
-You have to use macro mytoken(grammar-label) now because smart
-pointers are not specific to a parser's token objects. In other
-words, the ANTLRTokenPtr class has a pointer to a generic
-ANTLRAbstractToken not your ANTLRToken; the ANTLR support code must
-use smart pointers too, but be able to work with any kind of
-ANTLRToken. Sorry about this, but it's C++'s fault not mine. Some
-nebulous future version of the C++ compilers should obviate the need
-to downcast smart pointers with runtime type checking (and by allowing
-different return type of overridden functions).
-
-A way to have backward compatible code is to shut off the token object
-garbage collection; i.e., use parser->noGarbageCollectTokens() and
-change the definition of ANTLRTokenPtr (that's why you get source code
-<wink>).
-
-
-PARSER EXCEPTION HANDLING
-
-I've noticed some weird stuff with the exception handling. I intend
-to give this top priority for the "book release" of ANTLR.
-
-==========
-1.32 Full Release
-
-o Changed Token class hierarchy to be (Thanks to Tom Moog):
-
- ANTLRAbstractToken
- ANTLRRefCountToken
- ANTLRCommonToken
- ANTLRNoRefCountCommonToken
-
-o Added virtual panic() to ANTLRAbstractToken. Made ANTLRParser::panic()
- virtual also.
-
-o Cleaned up the dup() stuff in AST hierarchy to use shallowCopy() to
- make node copies. John Farr at Medtronic suggested this. I.e.,
- if you want to use dup() with either ANTLR or SORCERER or -transform
- mode with SORCERER, you must defined shallowCopy() as:
-
- virtual PCCTS_AST *shallowCopy()
- {
- return new AST;
- p->setDown(NULL);
- p->setRight(NULL);
- return p;
- }
-
- or
-
- virtual PCCTS_AST *shallowCopy()
- {
- return new AST(*this);
- }
-
- if you have defined a copy constructor such as
-
- AST(const AST &t) // shallow copy constructor
- {
- token = t.token;
- iconst = t.iconst;
- setDown(NULL);
- setRight(NULL);
- }
-
-o Added a warning with -CC and -gk are used together. This is broken,
- hence a warning is appropriate.
-
-o Added warning when #-stuff is used w/o -gt option.
-
-o Updated MPW installation.
-
-o "Miller, Philip W." <MILLERPW f1groups.fsd.jhuapl.edu> suggested
- that genmk be use RENAME_OBJ_FLAG RENAME_EXE_FLAG instead of
- hardcoding "-o" in genmk.c.
-
-o made all exit() calls use EXIT_SUCCESS or EXIT_FAILURE.
-
-===========================================================================
-1.33
-
-EXIT_FAILURE and EXIT_SUCCESS were not always defined. I had to modify
-a bunch of files to use PCCTS_EXIT_XXX, which forces a new version. Sorry
-about that.
