1 //! This is an NFA-based parser, which calls out to the main Rust parser for named non-terminals
2 //! (which it commits to fully when it hits one in a grammar). There's a set of current NFA threads
3 //! and a set of next ones. Instead of NTs, we have a special case for Kleene star. The big-O, in
4 //! pathological cases, is worse than traditional use of NFA or Earley parsing, but it's an easier
5 //! fit for Macro-by-Example-style rules.
7 //! (In order to prevent the pathological case, we'd need to lazily construct the resulting
8 //! `NamedMatch`es at the very end. It'd be a pain, and require more memory to keep around old
9 //! items, but it would also save overhead)
11 //! We don't say this parser uses the Earley algorithm, because it's unnecessarily inaccurate.
12 //! The macro parser restricts itself to the features of finite state automata. Earley parsers
13 //! can be described as an extension of NFAs with completion rules, prediction rules, and recursion.
15 //! Quick intro to how the parser works:
17 //! A 'position' is a dot in the middle of a matcher, usually represented as a
18 //! dot. For example `· a $( a )* a b` is a position, as is `a $( · a )* a b`.
20 //! The parser walks through the input a character at a time, maintaining a list
21 //! of threads consistent with the current position in the input string: `cur_items`.
23 //! As it processes them, it fills up `eof_items` with threads that would be valid if
24 //! the macro invocation is now over, `bb_items` with threads that are waiting on
25 //! a Rust non-terminal like `$e:expr`, and `next_items` with threads that are waiting
26 //! on a particular token. Most of the logic concerns moving the · through the
27 //! repetitions indicated by Kleene stars. The rules for moving the · without
28 //! consuming any input are called epsilon transitions. It only advances or calls
29 //! out to the real Rust parser when no `cur_items` threads remain.
34 //! Start parsing a a a a b against [· a $( a )* a b].
36 //! Remaining input: a a a a b
37 //! next: [· a $( a )* a b]
39 //! - - - Advance over an a. - - -
41 //! Remaining input: a a a b
42 //! cur: [a · $( a )* a b]
43 //! Descend/Skip (first item).
44 //! next: [a $( · a )* a b] [a $( a )* · a b].
46 //! - - - Advance over an a. - - -
48 //! Remaining input: a a b
49 //! cur: [a $( a · )* a b] [a $( a )* a · b]
50 //! Follow epsilon transition: Finish/Repeat (first item)
51 //! next: [a $( a )* · a b] [a $( · a )* a b] [a $( a )* a · b]
53 //! - - - Advance over an a. - - - (this looks exactly like the last step)
55 //! Remaining input: a b
56 //! cur: [a $( a · )* a b] [a $( a )* a · b]
57 //! Follow epsilon transition: Finish/Repeat (first item)
58 //! next: [a $( a )* · a b] [a $( · a )* a b] [a $( a )* a · b]
60 //! - - - Advance over an a. - - - (this looks exactly like the last step)
62 //! Remaining input: b
63 //! cur: [a $( a · )* a b] [a $( a )* a · b]
64 //! Follow epsilon transition: Finish/Repeat (first item)
