24 /* These type definitions are used to represent a nondeterministic
25 finite state machine that parses the specified grammar. This
26 information is generated by the function generate_states in the
27 file LR0.
28
29 Each state of the machine is described by a set of items --
30 particular positions in particular rules -- that are the possible
31 places where parsing could continue when the machine is in this
32 state. These symbols at these items are the allowable inputs that
33 can follow now.
34
35 A core represents one state. States are numbered in the NUMBER
36 field. When generate_states is finished, the starting state is
37 state 0 and NSTATES is the number of states. (FIXME: This sentence
38 is no longer true: A transition to a state whose state number is
39 NSTATES indicates termination.) All the cores are chained together
40 and FIRST_STATE points to the first one (state 0).
41
42 For each state there is a particular symbol which must have been
43 the last thing accepted to reach that state. It is the
44 ACCESSING_SYMBOL of the core.
45
46 Each core contains a vector of NITEMS items which are the indices
47 in the RITEM vector of the items that are selected in this state.
48
49 The two types of actions are shifts/gotos (push the lookahead token
50 and read another/goto to the state designated by a nterm) and
51 reductions (combine the last n things on the stack via a rule,
52 replace them with the symbol that the rule derives, and leave the
53 lookahead token alone). When the states are generated, these
54 actions are represented in two other lists.
55
56 Each transition structure describes the possible transitions out
57 of one state, the state whose number is in the number field. Each
58 contains a vector of numbers of the states that transitions can go
59 to. The accessing_symbol fields of those states' cores say what
60 kind of input leads to them.
61
62 A transition to state zero should be ignored: conflict resolution
63 deletes transitions by having them point to zero.
64
65 Each reductions structure describes the possible reductions at the
66 state whose number is in the number field. rules is an array of
67 num rules. lookahead_tokens is an array of bitsets, one per rule.
68
69 Conflict resolution can decide that certain tokens in certain
70 states should explicitly be errors (for implementing %nonassoc).
71 For each state, the tokens that are errors for this reason are
72 recorded in an errs structure, which holds the token numbers.
73
74 There is at least one goto transition present in state zero. It
75 leads to a next-to-final state whose accessing_symbol is the
76 grammar's start symbol. The next-to-final state has one shift to
77 the final state, whose accessing_symbol is zero (end of input).
78 The final state has one shift, which goes to the termination state.
79 The reason for the extra state at the end is to placate the
80 parser's strategy of making all decisions one token ahead of its
81 actions. */
