To represent a type with code completion.
type? '.'? <code-completion-token>
This is "parser only" node which is not exposed to SwiftSyntax.
Using this, defer to set the parsed type to code-completion callbacks.
ParsedSyntaxBuilder has a convenient function to add member to a syntax-collection
child. The function name uses the type name of the collection's members,
which can lead to name collision. This patch renames it.
To ensure SwiftSyntax calls a compatible parser library, this patch sets
up a C API that returns a constant string calculated during compilation time to indicate
the version of syntax node declarations. The same hash will be calculated
in the SwiftSyntax (client) side as well by using the same algorithm.
During runtime, SwiftSyntax will verify its hash value is identical to the
result of calling swiftparse_node_declaration_hash before actual
parsing happens.
This patch only sets the API up. The actual implementation of the
hashing algorithm will come later.
This patch adds a python function to syntax node gyb support called
"check_child_condition". Given a child's definition, this function
generate a C++ closure to check whether a given syntax node can satisfy
the condition of the child node. This function recursively generates code
for node choices too, therefore we don't need to hard code the
condition checking for node choices.
Some structures of syntax nodes can have children choices, e.g. a
dictionary expression can either contain a single ':' token or a list of
key-value pairs.
This patch gives the existing code generation infrastructure a way to
specify such node choices. Node choices are specified under a child
declaration with two constraints: a choice cannot be declared as
optional, and a choice cannot have further recursive choices.
Since we don't have too many node structures with choices, part of the
SyntaxFactory code for these nodes is manually typed.
This patch also teaches AccessorBlock to use node choices.
* Generate libSyntax API
This patch removes the hand-rolled libSyntax API and replaces it with an
API that's entirely automatically generated. This means the API is
guaranteed to be internally stylistically and functionally consistent.
