Syntax Module

Setting up the use of this module.

§1. This section simply sets up the module in ways expected by foundation, and contains no code of interest. The following constant exists only in tools which use this module:

define SYNTAX_MODULE TRUE

§2. Like all modules, this one must define a start and end function. Here, all we need do is set up some debugging log facilities.

void SyntaxModule::start(void) {
    NodeType::make_parentage_allowed_table();
    NodeType::metadata_setup();
    Annotations::make_annotation_allowed_table();
    Writers::register_writer('P', Node::write_node);  /* %P = write individual parse node */
    Writers::register_logger('m', Node::log_tree);    /* $m = log syntax tree from node */
    Writers::register_logger_I('N', NodeType::log);   /* $N = log individual node type */
    Writers::register_logger('P', Node::log_node);    /* $P = log individual parse node */
    Writers::register_logger('T', Node::log_subtree); /* $T = log tree under node */
    Annotations::begin();
}

void SyntaxModule::end(void) {
}
