The CoCo grammar expression spec is shown below [2]. My problem is with
constructions such as these:
CS = { ExternAliasDirective }
{ UsingDirective }
EOF .
CS results in an AST with a OR_EXPR node although no '|' character
actually appears. I'm sure this is due to my simplistic definition of
expression but I cannot see any other way to write the rules.
I did experiment with [1] to resolve the ambiguity. It does work but the
hack seems only to reinforce the fact that the basic construction is wrong.
Any tips much appreciated.
Jerry.
[1] expression
@init { bool ored = false; }
: term {ored = (input.LT(1).Type == OR); } (OR term)*
-> {ored}? ^(OR_EXPR term term*)
-> ^(LIST term term*)
[2] rule '=' expression '.' ;
expression
: term ('|' term)*
-> ^( OR_EXPR term term* )
;
term
: (factor (factor)*)? ;
factor
: symbol
| '(' expression ')'
-> ^( GROUPED_EXPR expression )
| '[' expression']'
-> ^( OPTIONAL_EXPR expression)
| '{' expression '}'
-> ^( SEQUENCE_EXPR expression)
;
symbol
: IF_ACTION
| ID (ATTRIBUTES)?
| STRINGLITERAL
