General parsing routine (GPR) functions to match values of non-object kinds in the command parser.
§1. We provide special support for the token "[number]" here. This is a function which picks up any irregular meanings added by the source text, say by "Understand "lots" as 100."; it does not parse orthodox numbers like 4, -3, and such.
void KindGPRs::number(void) { inter_name *iname = Hierarchy::find(DECIMAL_TOKEN_INNER_HL); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); command_grammar *cg = CommandGrammars::get_parsing_grammar(K_number); if (cg) Return on any matches1.1; Give up1.2; Functions::end(save); Hierarchy::make_available(iname); }
§1.1. Return on any matches1.1 =
GPRs::add_standard_vars(&kit); EmitCode::inv(STORE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::ref_symbol(K_value, kit.original_wn_s); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(WN_HL)); EmitCode::up(); RTCommandGrammars::compile_for_value_GPR(&kit, cg);
EmitCode::inv(RETURN_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(GPR_FAIL_HL)); EmitCode::up();
void KindGPRs::time(void) { inter_name *iname = Hierarchy::find(TIME_TOKEN_INNER_HL); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); kind *K = TimesOfDay::kind(); if (K) { command_grammar *cg = CommandGrammars::get_parsing_grammar(K); if (cg) Return on any matches1.1; } Give up1.2; Functions::end(save); Hierarchy::make_available(iname); }
void KindGPRs::truth_state(void) { inter_name *iname = Hierarchy::find(TRUTH_STATE_TOKEN_INNER_HL); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); command_grammar *cg = CommandGrammars::get_parsing_grammar(K_truth_state); if (cg) Return on any matches1.1; Give up1.2; Functions::end(save); Hierarchy::make_available(iname); }
§4. More generally, we can make a GPR for values of any enumeration or quasinumerical kind on request.
This does not work for other kinds, and in particular for kinds of object. Those are handled elsewhere by Noun Filter Tokens.
For a quasinumerical kind, we compile only a general GPR to match values of that kind, trying each possible notation in turn until one matches:
void KindGPRs::quasinumerical_agent(compilation_subtask *t) { kind *K = RETRIEVE_POINTER_kind(t->data); if (Kinds::Behaviour::is_quasinumerical(K) == FALSE) internal_error("miscall"); inter_name *iname = RTKindConstructors::GPR_iname(K); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); GPRs::add_standard_vars(&kit); GPRs::add_LP_vars(&kit); Save word number4.1; Save word number4.1; Match more elaborate grammar for this kind, if there is any4.2; literal_pattern *lp; LITERAL_FORMS_LOOP(lp, K) { EmitCode::inv(STORE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::ref_symbol(K_value, kit.rv_s); EmitCode::call(RTLiteralPatterns::parse_fn_iname(lp)); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::inv(IF_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::inv(EQ_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_symbol(K_value, kit.rv_s); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(GPR_NUMBER_HL)); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::code(); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::inv(RETURN_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_symbol(K_value, kit.rv_s); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::up(); Reset word number4.3; } Completely fail4.4; Functions::end(save); }
EmitCode::inv(STORE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::ref_symbol(K_value, kit.original_wn_s); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(WN_HL)); EmitCode::up();
§4.2. Match more elaborate grammar for this kind, if there is any4.2 =
command_grammar *cg = CommandGrammars::get_parsing_grammar(K); if (cg) { RTCommandGrammars::compile_for_value_GPR(&kit, cg); Reset word number4.3; }
EmitCode::inv(STORE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::ref_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(WN_HL)); EmitCode::val_symbol(K_value, kit.original_wn_s); EmitCode::up();
EmitCode::inv(RETURN_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(GPR_FAIL_HL)); EmitCode::up();
§5. For an enumeration, we make two functions:
void KindGPRs::enumeration_agent(compilation_subtask *t) { kind *K = RETRIEVE_POINTER_kind(t->data); if (Kinds::Behaviour::is_an_enumeration(K) == FALSE) internal_error("miscall"); Compile the normal GPR5.1; Compile the instance GPR5.2; }
§5.1. The first is a straightforward GPR to match any instance name for the kind. For example, for a kind called "colour", it might match any of "burnt umber", "cerulean blue" or "sienna".
Compile the normal GPR5.1 =
inter_name *iname = RTKindConstructors::GPR_iname(K); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); GPRs::add_standard_vars(&kit); Save word number4.1; Match more elaborate grammar for this kind, if there is any4.2; Match instances in decreasing name length order5.1.1; Completely fail4.4; Functions::end(save);
- This code is used in §5.
§5.2. The second is not quite a standard GPR, because it takes a call parameter, instance. The GPR matches only the name of that one instance; thus, if called with I_burnt_umber, it would match only "burnt umber".
Why is this needed? The answer is that whereas objects can have individual parse_name functions, allowing authors to customise the recognised names for them, instances of non-object enumerations do not have a parse_name. So this is the only way to allow, say, "Understand "sooty" as burnt umber." to work — the grammar holding "sooty" comes out only in the following function.
Compile the instance GPR5.2 =
inter_name *iname = RTKindConstructors::instance_GPR_iname(K); packaging_state save = Functions::begin(iname); gpr_kit kit = GPRs::new_kit(); GPRs::add_instance_var(&kit); GPRs::add_original_var(&kit); GPRs::add_standard_vars(&kit); kit.GV_IS_VALUE_instance_mode = TRUE; Save word number4.1; Match more elaborate grammar for this kind, if there is any4.2; Match instances in decreasing name length order5.1.1; Completely fail4.4; Functions::end(save);
- This code is used in §5.
§5.1.1. We try longer names first so that if the enumeration contains both "yellow" and "yellow chromium" then we match YELLOW CHROMIUM against the longer option.
Match instances in decreasing name length order5.1.1 =
int next_label = 1; int longest = 0; instance *I; LOOP_OVER_INSTANCES(I, K) { wording NW = Instances::get_name_in_play(I, FALSE); int L = Wordings::length(NW); if (L > longest) longest = L; } for (int len = longest; len >= 1; len--) { LOOP_OVER_INSTANCES(I, K) { wording NW = Instances::get_name_in_play(I, FALSE); if (Wordings::length(NW) == len) { if (kit.GV_IS_VALUE_instance_mode) { Test if this is the right instance5.1.1.2; Match the instance I5.1.1.1; Close test if this is the right instance5.1.1.3; } else { Match the instance I5.1.1.1; Reset word number4.3; } } } }
§5.1.1.1. Match the instance I5.1.1.1 =
TEMPORARY_TEXT(L) WRITE_TO(L, ".Failed_%d", next_label++); inter_symbol *failure_label = EmitCode::reserve_label(L); DISCARD_TEXT(L) LOOP_THROUGH_WORDING(k, NW) { EmitCode::inv(IF_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::inv(NE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::call(Hierarchy::find(NEXTWORDSTOPPED_HL)); TEMPORARY_TEXT(W) WRITE_TO(W, "%N", k); EmitCode::val_dword(W); DISCARD_TEXT(W) EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::code(); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::inv(JUMP_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::lab(failure_label); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::up(); } EmitCode::inv(STORE_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::ref_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(PARSED_NUMBER_HL)); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, RTInstances::value_iname(I)); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::inv(RETURN_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, Hierarchy::find(GPR_NUMBER_HL)); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::place_label(failure_label);
- This code is used in §5.1.1 (twice).
§5.1.1.2. Test if this is the right instance5.1.1.2 =
EmitCode::inv(IF_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::inv(EQ_BIP); EmitCode::down(); EmitCode::val_symbol(K_value, kit.instance_s); EmitCode::val_iname(K_value, RTInstances::value_iname(I)); EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::code(); EmitCode::down();
- This code is used in §5.1.1.
§5.1.1.3. Close test if this is the right instance5.1.1.3 =
Completely fail4.4; EmitCode::up(); EmitCode::up();
- This code is used in §5.1.1.
