// So far instructions can only contain linear lists of properties. Now we add // support for more complex trees of properties in dilated reagents. This will // come in handy later for expressing complex types, like "a dictionary from // (address to array of charaters) to (list of numbers)". // // Type trees aren't as general as s-expressions even if they look like them: // the first element of a type tree is always an atom, and left and right // pointers of non-atoms are never NULL. All type trees are 'dotted' in lisp // parlance. // // For now you can't use the simpler 'colon-based' representation inside type // trees. Once you start typing parens, keep on typing parens. :(scenarios load) :(scenario dilated_reagent_with_nested_brackets) def main [ {1: number, foo: (bar (baz quux))} <- copy 34 ] +parse: product: {1: "number", "foo": ("bar" ("baz" "quux"))} :(before "End Parsing Dilated Reagent Property(value)") value = parse_string_tree(value); :(before "End Parsing Dilated Reagent Type Property(type_names)") type_names = parse_string_tree(type_names); :(code) string_tree* parse_string_tree(string_tree* s) { assert(s->atom); if (!starts_with(s->value, "(")) return s; string_tree* result = parse_string_tree(s->value); delete s; return result; } string_tree* parse_string_tree(const string& s) { istringstream in(s); in >> std::noskipws; return parse_string_tree(in); } string_tree* parse_string_tree(istream& in) { skip_whitespace_but_not_newline(in); if (!has_data(in)) return NULL; if (in.peek() == ')') { in.get(); return NULL; } if (in.peek() != '(') { string_tree* result = new string_tree(next_word(in)); return result; } in.get(); // skip '(' string_tree* result = NULL; string_tree** curr = &result; while (true) { skip_whitespace_but_not_newline(in); assert(has_data(in)); if (in.peek() == ')') break; *curr = new string_tree(NULL, NULL); if (in.peek() == '(') (*curr)->left = parse_string_tree(in); else (*curr)->left = new string_tree(next_word(in)); curr = &(*curr)->right; } in.get(); // skip ')' assert(*curr == NULL); // standardize the final element to always be on the right if it's an atom // (a b c) => (a b . c) in s-expression parlance string_tree* tmp = result; while (tmp->right && tmp->right->right) tmp = tmp->right; assert(!tmp->right->atom); if (!tmp->right->left->atom) return result; string_tree* tmp2 = tmp->right; tmp->right = tmp2->left; tmp2->left = NULL; assert(tmp2->right == NULL); delete tmp2; return result; } :(scenario dilated_reagent_with_type_tree) % Hide_errors = true; // 'map' isn't defined yet def main [ {1: (foo (address array character) (bar number))} <- copy 34 ] # just to avoid errors container foo [ ] container bar [ ] +parse: product: {1: ("foo" ("address" "array" "character") ("bar" "number"))}
