Hi, Gabriel,
I am almost done with the changes of the grammar.
My biggest concern so far is that after changing in the grammar in
formatparse.mly 1
rule, I had to erase another rule, which was used instead of my rule at parse
time.
Should I send you the new grammar with some explanation on your personal
email?
Does anybody know well the grammar specification from formatparse.mly?
I also wonder why formatparse.mly (and probably also cparser.mly) has some
rules like
this:
decl:
| STAR attributes decl
{ ((fun ts args ->
let al = (fst $2) args in
(fst $3) (TPtr(ts, al)) args),
(fun (fn, ft) ->
match (snd $3) (fn, ft) with
Some (TPtr(bt, al), m2) -> begin
match (snd $2) al with
Some m1 -> Some (bt, m1 @ m2)
| _ -> None
end
| _ -> None))
}
So, the rule returns a tuple of 2 functions, one curried, one uncurried.
I have a
bit of hard time understanding why do we have such tuple with 2 functions -
some
explanation is warmly welcome.
Maybe of interest: I wrote some ideas on how to debug grammar specs for
ocamlyacc

Best regards,
