Isolating large macros to their own directory (components/temp).
- Plan is to remove them soon with proper generation.
Added additional component files, separating the old data_structures header for a set of ast headers.
Header_end also had its inlines extracted out.
Necessary to complete the macro isolation.
ZPL parser dependencies were removed from the core library along with builder, its now generated in bootstrap as pare of making a gen_builder set of files.
Singleheader will be changed in next few commits to reflect this as well (By making builder deps and components a conditional option).
Tests are most likely all broken for now.
Removing the gen. namespace from the files for components, dependencies, and file_processors.
They are only necessary if the include directory is transparent, and in my case those are not.
Made a docs directory. I'm offloading information from the main readme to there along with additional informationn I end up elaborating on down the line.
Enum tables were moved to their own directory (project/enums).
Library will not compile for now. Major refactor occuring with parsing related components.
Both bootstrap and singleheader now name the files the same as the library's default.
Output now directed toward gen directory for the corresponding dir (project, singleheader, or test)
I will most likely need to refactor some of the components & dependencies files to get the desired gneration implementation the way I want.
Specficially I want to be able to eliminate macros I'm using for enums and common patterns for implmeentation of the data structures.
When it comes to the cpp files, I may leave those alone as the macros largely help ith readability.
Replacing those macros is expensive and most likely not worth it.
The macros under consideration with replacing using the library bootstrap are:
* Define_Types
* Define_Operators
* Define_Specifiers
* GEN_Define_Attribute_Tokens
* Define_CodeType
* Using_Code
* Define_TokType
* def_constant_spec ?
* Helper Macros for def_**_body functions ?
* AST unallowed types case macros?
(The last three I'm unsure about as they work fine, and neeeding the debugger steps there is a rare scenario...)
The enums could be manually generated and have its fields derived from a CSV (which is what genc is currently doing).
This would allow the user to specify custom attribute macros as well with greater ease.
I may maually inline ProcessModuleFlags, as its not even necessary as any specific symbol with a module flag will only use the export value. Import is only used on modules themselves (from what I can tell).
The Parser::lex function could be offloaded to its own file in case the user wants to swap the entire thing out.
(Most likely may want to for various purposes)
The problem with extracting any definitions out of a component file currently is that will lead to splintering that componnet to multiple other components.
This is necessary as the proper scanner is not implemented yet (only a reduimentary scan_file proc is made so far).
- Added support for anonymous structs.
- Gave Token_Fmt::token_map its own static memory.
- Minor natvis fix for CodeBody
- Renamed ESpecifier::Static_Member to just Static (acts as a general use case) specifier option
- Setup the lex token array with a configurable arena allocator.
Two major things left before V0.3-4:
- Attribute and Module parisng support with base case test
- AST serializtaion strings get a dedicated slag allocator.
- Got rid of dynamic arrays for body entries, were using links only.
- Halfed the size of the ast from 256 to 128 bytes.
- Fields for different ast types are not accessed directly. Each type has a unique filtered AST for ease of use.
Also upated the gencpp.refactor script with almost all relevant symbols.
gen.undef.macros.hpp also filled out
Ready to complete gencpp related todos left in implementation...
Pretty much have a working library now... Albiet with problably quite a few hidden bugs in parsing.
Next steps are to start converting library to use its own Arena, Pool, Array, HashTable types. And either work on zpl dependency gutting or making a more robust set of tests.
token_fmt returns StrC now. Did some fixes so it can properly function now!
Lots of changes to the Array non-parsed implementation.
It shows no errors in the edtitor static analysis, however I haven't tried it yet.
Unfortunately have some friction with how I would like to set it up like with everything in C++...
Can't inherit from ArrayBase to provide the common members to all Array defs, without introducing constructor complexity.
I may be open to using constructors in the future, depends on how I feel when trying out the context pattern used in jai and odin...
Decided not to support the incremental API, its not necessary as the ergonomics are not that big a deal.
Got operators to pass the sanity base cases, which means now all upfront constructors pass the base cases!
Next up is getting it to pass the array container generation.
