Markus' ruby-parser (part 2)

From: Mathieu Bouchard <matju@...>
Date: 2002-01-13 19:49:15 UTC
List: ruby-talk #31077
This is a follow-up to comment on some of the goofs I made in the version
I committed tonight. I made a few horrible mistakes, most of all not
running the code with the assertion-checking enabled. so the code is
still, er, problematic. Tests are passed without assertion-checking; in
the process, I have made a few little changes to parse.y (the racc one)
and ParserTests.rb.

However there are a large number of type-checking issues that have not
been resolved. I want RubySchema to be simple and easy to use. I feel that
in a lot of places, it is not.

One big reason for that is that RubySchema is currently designed to
validate the output of a ruby parser as close as Ruby's built-in parser
would (even though it horribly fails at that). I think RubySchema should
be somewhat liberalized, to accept things that ruby parsers possibly
wouldn't produce, but without making things more difficult for code
processors.

It would be futile for me at this point to just fix RubySchema according
to current rules if there's a good potential for simplifying the rules.

Note that I still would like RubySchema to be able to represent everything
that can be parsed by a Ruby parser such that it can be unparsed back to
source with as much fidelity as possible to the original code that was
parsed. The only information i want to lose is whitespace and comments and
a pair of parens here and there. I want to keep "if not" separate from
"unless" and that kind of thing.

The change I'd like to do the most is reduce the number of categories like
Statement,Expr,Arg,Primary, which are useful for the parser and mostly
nothing else. I'd like to reduce that to just Expr. It would ease things a
lot.

Another change would be that everywhere a Body is required, a Statement
would be required instead (an Expr if i make the above change).

Those are the two big changes I'd like to do ASAP. I just want some
feedback to know whether it makes sense. I want to make many more changes
and justify the way all things are done in RubySchema, which means
changing some parts in order to make them justifiable. I mean, after the
two above changes, RubySchema will still be far from polished.

So... I await your feedback with (im)patience.
