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