- Exceptions are now consistently thrown by value and captured by reference. C++11 exception_ptr and nested_exception are used when exception references are neeeded or when implementing the equivalent of Java's nesting.
- The is<> helper didn't handle properly (const) references, which is now explicitly handled. Added new unit tests for that.
- Fixed a number of places where a catch all was used to implement a "finally" (which hides exceptions).
- Changed exceptions to hold (temporary) raw pointers instead of shared pointers, as otherwise it is tried to free wrapped pointers which might just be references to static objects. Might later be updated again when we continue with removing raw pointers.
- Some smaller fixes.
- The generated simple parser now runs through without any error (yet, it doesn't do anything useful).
- ANTLR C++ target template:
- Added getListener and genVisitor bool members to ANTLR's LexerFile + ParserFile classes, so can use them in the template.
- Made addition of listener #include dependent on the new genListener member, which allows to run parser generation without listeners/visitors.
- Added an even simpler grammar to ease debugging while getting the lib into a working state.
- Added helper template is<> to ease frequent type checks (for value types, ref types and shared_ptr). Added some unit tests for that as well.
- Changed the MurmurHash::hashCode() function to take shared_ptr as this is the only variant we need. Had to change the MurmurHash unit tests for that.
- Removed conflicting IntStream::_EOF (and other variants). We use the C runtime EOF value instead.
- Changed all references to semantic contexts, prediction context and the prediction context cache to use shared_ptr<>. Created *Ref typedefs to simplify usage.
- Adjusted the C++ string templates for that.
- Fixed a number of memory leaks + some cleanup.
- Reworked the exception hierarchy to conform with the Java hierarchy (where we mimic that). Ultimative base class is std::exception, which uses std::string (char* actually) for messages, so all exceptions use std::string for that as well. Consider that as first step to rework the entire lib to use std::string instead of std::wstring (with utf-8 for full Unicode support).
- Removed ASSERTException + TODOException and fixed the places where they were used.
- Removed ANTLRException, which was only an intermediate layer without an equivalent on Java side.
- Replaced some equals() calls by == (with defined operator overloading).
- Enhanced Arrays::equals() to ensure it compiles only if the actual types being compared support the != operator (both value + reference types).
- Made the Recognizer class template free by using plain polymorphism. Some adjustments were need also in the Cpp template to support that. Could convert the .inl file to .cpp then.
- Added IntervalSet unit tests. Fixed a few bugs found by that.
- Enhanced the demo grammar so that we use as many as possible template rules from Cpp.stg. Still not fully done it seems.
- Fixed bugs in size determination for arrays (vectors now).
- Simplified PredictionContext and SemanticContext (one template parameter less).
- Removed no longer used Utils.h/cpp. Fixed CPPUtils.h/cpp.
- Extended LexerXXCommand template rules to take a new grammar parameter (code gen has been updated) as we need this context in the Cpp target. This change requires to update all existing templates! Cannot do here as this is an old revision.
- Some cleanup.
While testing Interval() and Interval::of() I found that the latter is twice as slow as the normal object creation. Seems caching single element intervals doesn't have the same impact as in Java (quite the opposite), so I removed Interval::off and the interval cache.
The MurmurHash implementation was actually for a 32bit platform, so I added a 64 bit version too (stripped down from 128 bit MurmurHash3). Tests cannot directly check the correctness of the algorithm, but duplicate checks over 300K hashs (for short input, which is more prone to duplicates than longer input) showed there are no duplicates. So I take it that the code is good.
Fixed a hash creation bug in PredictionContext.cpp.
- Added first real unit test set and enable code coverage collection in XCode (for ANTLRInputStream).
- Reworked ANTLRFileStream::load, which is now more flexible (supports Unicode BOM + 3 possible encodings), can load from Unicode file names and has almost no platform code.
- Enabled strict data size and sign checks in XCode (clang) and fixed a million places...
- Started converting int to size_t where it makes more sense.
- Started working on const correctness.
- Fixed a ton of memory leaks.
- The ATN and ATNConfigSet classes now entirely work as value types. Same for Interval(Set). These seem to be the most critical data structures (ATNConfig + ATNState are pending).
- The abstract IntSet class is gone now.
- Murmur hash code now works with size_t instead of int (need to add unit tests for that).
- Fixed a number of TODOs and other smaller things.
- The Cpp template now properly handles grammar rule return values.
- Reworked the ATNConfigSet + the config lookup implementation it uses. The new implementation no longer needs the hand written Array2DHashSet class but instead relies now on std::unordered_set with custom hasher and comparer classes.
- Fixed a bug where the ATNConfigSet was deriving from std::set while in the original Java code it only implements the Set interface (not the config set itself is a set but the config lookup is). As a consequence all iterations over ATNConfigSet now iterate over ATNConfigSet->configLookup.
- Removed the Any class as it didn't solve the problems we had mind.
- Removed the no longer necessary Array2DHashSet, AbstractEqualityComparer and ObjectEqualityComparer classes.
- Instead there is a new ConfigLookup implementation with a templated config lookup implementation.
- Removed ATNConfig::equals, as this is already implement in the == operator overloading. So the operator is used instead where needed.
ATNs are top level structures, which are created and kept by parser/lexer classes (or their simulator equivalents). Hence there are now value types in their controlling class and passed around as const &.
IRecognizer was a template class without real need, which has been changed to make it a simple interface easily usable without having to find C++ hacks for fancy Java wildcard generics.
The Any class is loosly modelled after boost::Any and allows us to use equals() and hashCode() functions to be used where we have no common base class (like Java's Object class). By introducing this class we can replace all void* occurances that would otherwise not work.
- Reformatted every single file to have a consistent indentation style using only space chars, with 2 chars per indentation. Reduced huge indentation due to deep namespace nesting by not indenting namespaces.
- Reduced #include usage to a minimum.
- Made copyright header the first entry in all files.
- Moved the previously mac-only prefix file (antlrcpp-Prefix.h) to the runtime. It can now be used by all platforms and includes all necessary standard headers.
- Removed a number of unused files.
- ATN deserialization finally works.
- Changed a number of pointer to STL classes to just the STL classes and pass them around by const & where necessary.
