I started very recently to use bison
for writing small compiler exercises. I am having some issues with white spaces ans comments. I was trying to debug the problem and I arrived to this source that looks like what I am looking for. I tried to chnage and erase some characters as advised but didn't work.
Also during compilation I have the following error: re2c: error: line 2963, column 0: can only difference char sets
.
Below the part of the code:
yy::conj_parser::symbol_type yy::yylex(lexcontext& ctx)
{
const char* anchor = ctx.cursor;
ctx.loc.step();
// Add a lambda function to avoid repetition
auto s = [&](auto func, auto&&... params) { ctx.loc.columns(ctx.cursor - anchor); return func(params..., ctx.loc); };
%{ /* Begin re2c lexer : Tokenization process starts */
re2c:yyfill:enable = 0;
re2c:define:YYCTYPE = "char";
re2c:define:YYCURSOR = "ctx.cursor";
"return" { return s(conj_parser::make_RETURN); }
"while" | "for" { return s(conj_parser::make_WHILE); }
"var" { return s(conj_parser::make_VAR); }
"if" { return s(conj_parser::make_IF); }
// Identifiers
[a-zA-Z_] [a-zA-Z_0-9]* { return s(conj_parser::make_IDENTIFIER, std::string(anchor, ctx.cursor)); }
// String and integers:
"\""" [^\"]* "\"" { return s(conj_parser::make_STRINGCONST, std::string(anchor+1, ctx.cursor-1)); }
[0-9]+ { return s(conj_parser::make_NUMCONST, std::stol(std::string(anchor, ctx.cursor))); }
// Whitespace and comments:
"\000" { return s(conj_parser::make_END); }
"\r\n" | [\r\n] { ctx.loc.lines(); return yylex(ctx); }
"//" [^\r\n]* { return yylex(ctx); }
[\t\v\b\f ] { ctx.loc.columns(); return yylex(ctx); }
Thank you very much for pointing in the right direction or shading some lights on why this error could be solved.
