When we run the Preprocessor from the CppComprehensionEngine of
the language server, we don't want the preprocessor to crash if it
encounters an invalid preprocessor statement (for example, an #endif
statement without an accompanying previous #if statement).
To achieve this, this commit adds an "ignore_invalid_statements" flag
to the preprocessor which is set by the CppComprehensionEngine.
Fixes#11064.
SonarCloud flagged this 'Identical sub-expressions on both sides of
operator "||"'. When looking at the git history it looks like it was
just a copy / paste mistake that happened when Token::Type::Arrow
support was added.
Previously, the preprocessor first split the source into lines, and then
processed and lexed each line separately.
This patch makes the preprocessor first lex the source, and then do the
processing on the tokenized representation.
This generally simplifies the code, and also fixes an issue we
previously had with multiline comments (we did not recognize them
correctly when processing each line separately).
Similarly to the LibCpp parser regression tests, these tests run the
preprocessor on the .cpp test files under
Userland/LibCpp/Tests/preprocessor, and compare the output with existing
.txt ground truth files.
The preprocessor now understands when a function-like macro is defined,
and can also parse calls to such macros.
The actual evaluation of function-like macros will be done in a
separate commit.
When the preprocessor encounters an #include statement it now adds
the preprocessor definitions that exist in the included header to its
own set of definitions.
We previously only aggregated the definitions from headers after
processing the source, which was less correct. (For example, there
could be an #ifdef that depends on a definition from another header).
We now call Preprocessor::process_and_lex() and pass the result to the
parser.
Doing the lexing in the preprocessor will allow us to maintain the
original position information of tokens after substituting definitions.
We previously stored the entire ASTNode vector in each parser state,
and this vector was copied whenever a state was loaded or saved.
We don't actually need to store the whole nodes list in each state
because a new state can only add new nodes to this list, and won't
mutate existing nodes.
It would suffice to only hold a vector of the nodes that were created
while parsing in the current state to keep a reference to them.
This reduces the time it takes on my machine for the c++ language
server to handle a file that #includes <LibGUI/Widget.h> from ~4sec to
~0.7sec.
There's no need to store parser error messages for states with
depth > 0, as they will eventually be popped from the states stack and
their error messages will never be displayed to the user.
Profiling shows that this change reduces the % of backtraces that
contain the store_state & load_state functions from ~95% to ~70%.
Empirically this change reduces the time it takes on my machine for the
c++ language server to handle a file that #includes <LibGUI/Widget.h>
from ~14sec to ~4sec.
Previously almost all fields were public and were directly accessed by
the Parser and CppComprehensionEngine.
This commit makes all fields of AST node types private. They are now
accessed via getters & setters.
This adds a new ASTNode type called 'NamedType' which inherits from
the Type node.
Previously every Type node had a name field, but it was not logically
accurate. For example, pointer types do not have a name
(the pointed-to type may have one).
We can now handle access-specifier tags (for example 'private:') when
parsing class declarations.
We currently only consume these tags on move on. We'll need to add some
logic that accounts for the access level of symbols down the road.
Previously, we had a special ASTNode for class members,
"MemberDeclaration", which only represented fields.
This commit removes MemberDeclaration and instead uses regular
Declaration nodes for representing the members of a class.
This means that we can now also parse methods, inner-classes, and other
declarations that appear inside of a class.
