Hi Doru,

We are using Platyplus to generate a language grammar and it uses PetitParser for this purpose. When trying to synchronize the definitions with Platyplus in the latest version of Moose, there are some errors related to PPContext not understanding #position. And it seems to be associated to the new changes.

Here's a script to reproduce the problem in Moose:

Gofer new
         url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/AlainPlantec/Platypus2/main';
package: 'ConfigurationOfPlatypus';
load.
(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfPlatypus) loadDevelopment.
PlatypusExpressEditor new synchronize

We might later in time try to adapt platyplus to the recent changes in PetitParser but currently we have to concentrate on other things.

regards.

Usman

Hi Usman,

Could you let us know how you trigger the parsing? Could it be that you are using some internal methods?

Could you reproduce this on any other parser?

Cheers,
Doru

Hi,

I tried to update PetitParser so that it converts a stream into the PPContext. Therefore an entry point to the parsing looks like this:

PPParser>>parse: anObject
    ^ self parse: anObject withContext: PPContext new

The PPContext enwraps the PPStream and should provide the stream protocol.

I also updated the PetitSmalltalk project (version JanKurs.71).

The drawback of PPContext (that I am aware of) is approximately 10% slowdown. If there is anything else, please let me know so that I can work on it.

Cheers,
Jan

Here's a screenshot of the debugger that popups when I execute some tests with the recent changes. It seems to be related to the problem of PPParsers knowing a context object instead of a stream.

Hi,

These changes should be backward compatible. What kind of impact did you experience? Can you give concrete examples?

Cheers,
Doru

Hi all,

Recently, there have been changes in PetitParser related to support for island grammar and parsing context which requires some modifications in the tools using PetitParser. Not all tools can be adapted immediately to use the new version. Hence, I have created a new version of PetitParser that loads the packages prior to these changes for backward compatibility.

Name: ConfigurationOfPetitParser-usmanbhatti.49
Author: usmanbhatti
Time: 28 September 2014, 8:58:00.540857 pm
UUID: 54877ca2-77b0-4c5e-937d-5124dd76b075
Ancestors: ConfigurationOfPetitParser-JanKurs.48

adding a baseline and a version that loads packages before changes made to petitparser related to parsing context and island grammar.

regards,

usman
