kandi X-RAY | PEGTL Summary
Grammars are written as regular C++ code, created with template programming (not template meta programming), i.e. nested template instantiations that naturally correspond to the inductive definition of PEGs (and other parser-combinator approaches). A comprehensive set of parser rules that can be combined and extended by the user is included, as are mechanisms for debugging grammars, and for attaching user-defined actions to grammar rules. Here is an example of how a PEG grammar rule is implemented as C++ class with the PEGTL. PEGs are superficially similar to Context-Free Grammars (CFGs), however the more deterministic nature of PEGs gives rise to some very important differences. The included grammar analysis finds several typical errors in PEGs, including left recursion.

QUESTION
env: node: No such file or directory
I checked if my directory for node wasn't wrong and it's fine.
I tried these following answers already: 1. https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/3911 2. https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/1702 3. browserify error /usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Aug-15 at 09:30Try
node -v
to see whether you've installed node. I think your node not works.nvm
is the environment managment for node. If you are usingnvm
, you shouldbrew install nvm
, and usenvm install version-of-node-you-want-to-install
to install node, and usenvm use the-version
to let node works.Whole install chain is:
brew install nvm
, to installnvm
, which is environment/version management for node.nvm install 10.3.0
, to installnode
andnpm
npm install -g yarn
, to installyarn
use
node -v
,npm -v
,nvm -v
,yarn -v
to check if they all works.
QUESTION
How can I add a header-only library outside the directory?
Previously I was using add_subdirectory(HEADERLIBRARY)
only when the directory HEADERLIBRARY
was inside the project directory. However, now I want to use the library for multiple projects, so I made a directory like this:
ANSWER
Answered 2019-May-12 at 01:35Yes, you still just use add_subdirectory(source_dir [binary_dir] [EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL])
.
Because source_dir
is not within the source directory tree of the top-level project you have to specify the [binary_dir]
folder that is going to be used. By default binary_dir
is the same as source_dir
within the binary directory tree and it is handled automatically.
QUESTION
With PEGTL (https://github.com/taocpp/PEGTL), which is a template based C++11 header-only PEG library, I can define ranges for unicode characters like this:
- utf8::range<0x0, 0x10FF> //All UTF8 Characters
- utf8::range<0x41, 0x5A, 0x61, 0x7A> //UTF8 0x41-0x5A[A-Z] and 0x61-0x7A[a-z]
Now with UTF8 there is this properties categorisation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_character_property#General_Category) with which I could do something like [:Lu:] or [:ID_Start:] and get a set/range of characters.
Now, since I'm working with c++ templates, I need those ranges at compile time. In my opinion I have the following options:
- Discover that PEGTL has itself the possibility to look up [:ID_Start:] or [:Lu:]
- Find a c++ preprocessor library, that allows such queries at compile time
- Get an Application/Online Service, where I can perform those queries and get ranges (as shown above), which I can then paste in my code.
This also represents the order of the solutions I prefer.
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Mar-22 at 18:24The PEGTL uses rules to match characters, not return sets of characters. If you'd like to match characters with certain Unicode character properties, you could create a custom rule and implement it with the help of some Unicode library, e.g. ICU. It provides methods to test codepoints for various properties, see this link.
Here's a complete example program:
QUESTION
I'm very new to peg and pegtl, so probably I'm missing something. I have a grammar very similar to the following one:
...ANSWER
Answered 2019-Jan-09 at 11:26I asked to pegtl library authors and they kindly give me the correct way: the best thing to do is make your parser construct a parse tree, which is easy to fix when it backtracks using simple push and pop operations.
I developed the code below for who had similar doubts.
avoid backtracking in rules with attached actions:
QUESTION
I am trying to parse a very simple language with PEGTL. I think I have found the problem, but don't understand why; white spaces are not ignored. I understand it must be possible to not ignore white space so that indentation-aware languages can also be parsed. But I couldn't find a mechanism to "eat" white spaces by default. Given:
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Nov-22 at 12:04I don't think there is a shortcut, you have to specify the grammar in a way that makes it unambiguous where and how many whitespaces you allow.
The best way to do it I think is to add a convenience rule template that allows matching a list (tao::pegtl::seq
) of rules separated by any allowed separater (generally whitespace plus comments).
QUESTION
I have a class which takes many other classes as template arguments (for compile-time grammar generation with TAO PEGTL if it matters) and would like to know if there is a better and more extensible way to do this, than typing everything manually.
Current Situation:
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Aug-16 at 12:10I recommend an explicit manual registration of all "rules" (Class1
, ..., ClassN
) in a single place of your codebase:
