Class virtual_parse_stack

java.lang.Object
com.aquima.interactions.java_cup.virtual_parse_stack
public class virtual_parse_stack extends Object
This class implements a temporary or "virtual" parse stack that replaces the top portion of the actual parse stack (the part that has been changed by some set of operations) while maintaining its original contents. This data structure is used when the parse needs to "parse ahead" to determine if a given error recovery attempt will allow the parse to continue far enough to consider it successful. Once success or failure of parse ahead is determined the system then reverts to the original parse stack (which has not actually been modified). Since parse ahead does not execute actions, only parse state is maintained on the virtual stack, not full Symbol objects.

    boolean
    empty()
    Indicate whether the stack is empty.

    Transfer an element from the real to the virtual stack.
    void
    pop()
    Pop the stack.

  • Field Details

    • real_stack

      protected Stack<Symbol> real_stack
      The real stack that we shadow. This is accessed when we move off the bottom of the virtual portion of the stack, but is always left unmodified.

    • real_next

      protected int real_next
      Top of stack indicator for where we leave off in the real stack. This is measured from top of stack, so 0 would indicate that no elements have been "moved" from the real to virtual stack.

    • vstack

      protected Stack<Integer> vstack
      The virtual top portion of the stack. This stack contains Integer objects with state numbers. This stack shadows the top portion of the real stack within the area that has been modified (via operations on the virtual stack). When this portion of the stack becomes empty we transfer elements from the underlying stack onto this stack.

  • Constructor Details

    • virtual_parse_stack

      public virtual_parse_stack(Stack<Symbol> shadowing_stack) throws Exception
      Constructor to build a virtual stack out of a real stack.
      Throws:
      Exception

  • Method Details

    • get_from_real

      protected void get_from_real()
      Transfer an element from the real to the virtual stack. This assumes that the virtual stack is currently empty.

    • empty

      public boolean empty()
      Indicate whether the stack is empty.

    • top

      public int top() throws Exception
      Return value on the top of the stack (without popping it).
      Throws:
      Exception

    • pop

      public void pop() throws Exception
      Pop the stack.
      Throws:
      Exception

    • push

      public void push(int state_num)
      Push a state number onto the stack.
