parser_builder 2.0.32 changelog

2.0.32 #

The bool optimizeForSize parameter has been added to the fastBuild function. This allows to reduce the size of the generated parser code. At the moment, this refers to the generation of Tag parsers. Instead of fast and cumbersome (inlined) code, compact and slightly slow code (of calling a static extension method) will be generated
Minor improvements have been made to the source code since the addition of the prefer_const_declarations Dart SDK analyzer option
Minor improvements have been made to the IdentifierExpression parser builder

2.0.31 #

Unused templates have been removed from the ParseRuntime class
The runtime code has been modified in order to eliminate the Missing type argument for list literal Dart analyzer error when the implicit_dynamic_list_literal lint is enabled

2.0.30 #

Cosmetic code improvements
Breaking change: The AddToPos parser builder has been renamed to Advance

2.0.29 #

Breaking change: Because semantic values doesn't exactly match what was implemented as semantic values, what was implemented as semantic values was renamed to capture. The capture in this case means to capture some value for arbitrary use of this value later. The main purpose is to provide the ability to generate errors of any complexity anywhere. All the problems are that Dart, unlike other modern languages, does not have support for functions that return constant values. I don’t understand at all how one can do without it and simultaneously develop static meta programming where macro annotations built on heavy use of constants (to define meta features). If Dart supported such features, then there would be no need for these tricks. Because defining a parser as one huge constant is the essence of what is part of static meta-programming
Fixed bug in parser builder Memoize in fast mode

2.0.28 #

Implemented the concept of semantic values
Breaking change: Removed parser builders WithStart, WithStartAndLastErrorPos
Breaking change. The parser builder WithLastErrorPos has been renamed to HandleLastErrorPos
Breaking change: Changed the value types of parameters end, pos, start for parser builders in the error library
Breaking change. Simplified and unified way to specify the location of the generated error, different from the location of the failure. By default, an error is registerd at the location where the failure occurred. The pos parameter of the state.fail() method is responsible for this. If required to register an error in a different location, then need to specify the start and end positions of the error in the start and end parameters. If the parameter end is not specified or its value is less than the value of the parameter start, then this value is not taken into account. It is also not taken into account if the value of the parameter start is not specified

2.0.27 #

Breaking change. Another round to improve the error reporting system. Now errors can be registered not only in any position, but also with any length. This allows an unlimited number of errors to be registered at one failure. All this together 100% justify the choice of this error system. Because this system works very fast, does not consume memory at all, does not require the creation of any data instances for registering errors, allows to register any number of errors at one failure, at any position and with any length
Breaking change. The signature of the State.fail() method has been changed. Due to improvements in the error system, the length parameter has been returned back. The new signature is now void fail(int pos, int kind, Object? value, {int length = -1, int start = -1}). This is because the length value is now processed differently due to a change in the error post-processing algorithm. Now it is a more versatile, more powerful and more accurate algorithm

2.0.26 #

Breaking change. The enum FailPos has been renamed to StatePos and moved from error.dart to parser_builder.dart. It is now public, but certain state.* fields will only have their respective values set by specially generated code to set them only on demand using special parser builders to reduce runtime overhead. Example: WithLastErrorPos(Alt2(parser, FailMessage(StatePos.lastErrorPos, 'some message')))
Implemented, tested (as a basis of other builders), but not documented parser builder SwicthTag
Refactored parser builders Tags, TagValues using the new SwitchTag parser builder

2.0.25 #

Breaking change. Does not affect user parser definitions. The signature of the State.fail method has been changed. Due to improvements in the error generation system, the length parameter has been removed and parameter value is made optional. The new signature is now void fail(int pos, int kind, [Object? value, int start = -1])
Another round to improve the error reporting system. Parser builders have been added to implement the ability to generate complex error messages at any level of the parser rule. Now it is possible to generate errors using special parsers. These parser builders include facilities for generating errors directly, for capturing information about the initial parse position, tracking on demand the last error position, and turning off error generation for the current parse position. By combining the above parser builders and placing them in different places in the parsing rules, it is possible to generate complex error messages that were previously only available when implementing (hand-writing) individual parser builder classes
Implemnented, a little tested and not documented parser builders FailExpected, FailMessage, SilentAtThisPos, WithLastErrorPos, WithStart, WithStartAndLastErrorPos
Reimplemented error generation parser builders Indicate, Expected and Nested using only a combination of other error generation parser builders. That is, correctly, safely and without the need to write new code templates
An example of an elegant and correct way to generate an Unterminated string error in the JSON parser code was given. The method of generating this error demonstrates a new possibility for generating errors by combining special parser builders designed for these purposes

2.0.24 #

Implemented, tested, but not documented parser builder TagPair. It is intended to parse markup languages elements

2.0.23 #

Fixed bug in parser builder Named

2.0.22 #

Minor improvements in the experimental implementation of the _errorMessage function. Current operating principle. When displaying text, it is formatted (all whitespace characters are displayed as spaces) into one line (with a length of no more than 80 characters) and the position of the error is displayed as close to the center of the output line as possible. Thus (regardless of line breaks) the text before and after the error position is displayed (if it fits in a line of 80 characters). This looks more informative and clearer, and at the same time solves the problem with the case when all the parsed text is one very long line and the error message looks just awful

2.0.21 #

Breaking change. Semantic actions for Tokenize, TokenizeTags parser builders have been simplified
Implemented, tested, but not documented parser builder TokenizeSimilarTags. It allows very fast parsing of tokens that can be created in a single semantic action

2.0.20 #

Despite the fact that the source_span package is no longer used, the error generation system, the error reporting system and the ParseError class have been unified in accordance with the way it is implemented in the source_span package, in particular in the Span classes. In the ParseError class, the end field no longer includes the value at that position. That is, the range (10, 10) means start position 10 with no value (empty value), (10, 11) start position 10, with value 1 element long, and so on. The values of these ranges are used to indicate the sequence of data elements using an indicator of the form ^^^^^. Why exactly this way and not otherwise? Firstly, the ability to correctly encode empty ranges, and secondly, at runtime, during parsing, after successful parsing, the current position indicates the next element of the sequence and only such a state is available to next parsers. For example, for parsers-verifiers, this fits very well with the principle of their work. Parsers-verifiers do not analyze positions and the length of the parsed sequence at runtime, they react to the result returned by a predicate that checks the result of a successful parse and generate errors as is from the current parsing state data
Breaking change. Class _Memo is now public and is now called MemoizedResult
Implemented, tested, but not documented parser builders Tokenize, TokenizeTags. They are designed to implement high-performance lexers

2.0.19 #

Minor improvements related to reducing the size of the generated code of the built-in runtime library for the parser. The following classes are generated only on demand: Result2-Result7, _Memo. Also, the size of the State class code is slightly reduced in the case when memoization is not used. All this does not particularly reduce the size of the code, but at the same time, it does not increase its size unnecessarily
Removed dependency on source_span package. Now the generated parsers have no dependencies

2.0.18 #

Breaking change. On the way to generating parsers without dependencies, the use of the tuple package has been stopped. Now the Result2-Result7 classes are generated on demand. These changes require minor changes to the parser definitions. The next step is to remove the dependency on the source_span package

2.0.17 #

The following parser builders now generate more optimized code: Delimited, Pair, Preceded, Terminated
The following parser builders now generate more optimized code in fast mode: Map2-MapN, Tuple-TupleN
The following parser builders now generate more optimized code: Fast2-FastN

2.0.16 #

Implemented the ability to register errors with a position less than the current error position. The error is registered at the current position, but with the actual location of the error (as an optional parameter). In particular, it allows errors such as unterminated to be elegantly registered when it is no longer possible to register the start position because the current position is at the end of the file (at a position farther away)
Breaking change. Errors can no longer be registered with a negative length value

2.0.15 #

Minor improvements in BinarySearchBuilder. Also untestable sections of the code were tested. That is, those cases are practically not achievable, but theoretically this has not been proven

2.0.14 #

Fixed bug in binary search code builder

2.0.12 #

The binary search code builder has been redesigned. Now it is a separate class. New implementation tested. The generated code is very efficient. It generates a single expression consisting of many comparison tests. For 3 ranges (6 values), the generated algorithm finds the result by testing 3 constant values. For 20 ranges (40 values) finds the result by testing 5-6 constant values. The only downside is that the Dart SDK formatter formats such code using 4 character indentation instead of 2 character indentation

2.0.11 #

Fixed bug in parser builders SeparatedList0, SeparatedList1. Invalid {{var1}} keys have been removed from fast templates
Fixed bug in parser builder StringValue. Invalid {{val1}} keys have been removed from fast template

2.0.10 #

The parser builder Peek has been optimized for size and speed
Fixed bug in parser builder Named. For functions with a return type of void, the fast parsing mode is forced to turn on
Implemented (inlined) binary search expression builder

2.0.9 #

Fixed bug in parser builder Memoize. In fast parsing mode, memoization did not work due to passing an invalid value as an argument, indicating the parsing mode. This was due to a copy-paste oversight made while editing the templates

2.0.8 #

Implemented, tested and documented parser builder TagValues
The Tags parser builder has been changed from generating source code using a switch statement to using if-else statements

2.0.7 #

Fixed bug in parser builder Memoize. Added missing result type information to state.memoized<R>() and state.memoize<R>() calls
Fixed bug in method state.memoize<R>(). Added missing result type information when instantiating _Memo<R>

2.0.6 #

Fixed bug in parser builder Nested. The value of state.minErrorPos was incorrectly restored to state.errorPos. Now this value is saved and restored from the saved value
Fixed bug in parser builder PrefixExpression. Incorrect parsing algorithm. Parser templates have been changed
Fixed bug in function _errorMessage()

2.0.5 #

Improved performance of lightweight memoization. Saving the parsed state is now just creating an instance of _Memo and single write operation to the list. Restoring the parsed state is one read operation from the list, one conditional ternary operation and a few assignment expressions to restore the parse state. This memoization method is very fast and efficient
Breaking change. Does not affect end users (parser definitions). The error registration operation has been changed. Now registering an error does not require any data instances to be created. This works quite quickly and efficiently and does not consume memory

2.0.4 #

Improved the stability of tracking the position of the last local error. This feature is used in the parser builder Indicate
Breaking change. Does not affect end users (parser definitions). Increased performance by reworking the ParseError class. Now instances of this class are mostly used as constant values. This greatly improves performance. Now the generated parsers work almost as fast as in the previous version. And, of course, now they register and report errors more accurately. There is even too much information about errors and they have to be reduced (when declaring parsers), combining them into a kind of tokens. Maybe it makes sense to implement a silent version of the Opt parser for special cases?

2.0.3 #

Implemented, tested and documented experimental parser builder Memoize. This is an attempt to implement lightweight (on demand) memoization with saving only one state of parsing (just for a specific case)

2.0.2 #

Optimization of parser builders for generating errors (Expected, Malformed, Nested). Creating a way for a simple and optimal way to implement them, optimizing the implementation of the class State

2.0.1 #

Tested and documented parser builder Expected
Documented parser builder Nested
Implemented, tested and documented parser builder Malformed
Implemented (but not tested) and documented experimental parser builder Indicate

2.0.0 #

Breaking change. Does not affect end users (parser definitions). The changes concern the development of parser builders.
As practice has shown, the current error registration system turned out to be a system of the registration of the local errors in relation to the current alternative choice parser. In other words, if one of the alternatives was successfully parsed, all other registered errors were discarded (despite the fact that these errors could have the farthest positions).
This led to the fact that information about real (the farthest in position) parsing errors was lost forever. In some cases it did not matter because each choice from the alternative did not have the same grammar symbols at the beginning and, accordingly, there are no problems with determining the exact position of the error. But, in the case when the first grammar symbols in different choices is the same, then the absence of this information would lead to a less accurate interpretation of the exact location of the parse error. This is especially true for parsing expressions of grammars of high-level programming languages (or even complex expression calculators).
The new error system registers and saves errors until new errors are found in the next (far) positions.
Thus, the new system is devoid of this shortcoming.
These changes cause the generated parsers to be slightly slower (about 10%), smaller in size, and much more accurate in determining the real location of a parsing error.
Now the principle of operation is closest to PEG parsers, where each parser can be considered as a parsing expression
Breaking change. Removed classes Char, Tag. They were used solely for registering errors
Breaking change. Removed class Err and its descendants
Added new class ParseError. All errors are registered through this class. There are 3 kind of errors in total. These are expected, message and unexpected

1.0.10 #

The size of the generated source code of the parser BinaryExpression has been slightly reduced

1.0.9 #

Implemented and tested parser builder PostfixExpression
Implemented and tested parser builder PrefixExpression
Fixed bug in parser builder BinaryExpression. In case of failure, the position was restored incorrectly, not to the very beginning of the binary expression. The position is now restored to the very first left-hand operand

1.0.8 #

Improved parser builder BinaryExpression. The generated parser is now smaller, faster and uses less memory (does not use list and tuples)
Improved parser builder IdentifierExpression. The generated parser is now faster (using binary search)

1.0.7 #

Implemented and tested parser builder IdentifierExpression

1.0.6 #

Added the ability to optimize fast parsers at the global level. This is achieved by building in two passes. During the first pass, information is collected about the use of the parsing results returned by the functions. If the return result is never used, then the parser function is built as a fast (non-resulting, void) function (on the next pass)
Breaking change: Removed Context.contex. Instead, added the concept of the registry. Added new metod T getRegistry<T>(owner, String name, T defaultValue) to class Context. Currently, this has an internal use when generating parsers

1.0.5 #

Implemented and tested parser builder SeparatedListN

1.0.4 #

Implemented and tested parser builder ManyN

1.0.3 #

Implemented and tested parser builder BinaryExpression
Added simple calculator parser example

1.0.2 #

Fixed bug in parser builder Verify. There was an oversight in rewriting the builder implementation (from codegen based to template-based generation) for the new version. A small piece of code was omitted to generate an error with a message if verification fails with the semantic action

1.0.1 #

Minor changes in README.md file
Fixed bugs in some parser builders that generates the parsers that use (require) semantic actions even in fast mode (for verification and so on). Bugs were found with the following parser builders Satisfy, TakeWhile, TakeWhile1, Verify. This error did not result in parsing errors, but did result in the generation of uncompilable (not a valid) source code of parsers

1.0.0 #

First major version

0.18.0 #

After many experiments, it was decided to return everything back as it was originally. With one small exception. The build system has been greatly simplified and improved

0.17.0 #

Breaking change: It was decided to simplify the implementation of parser builders (human work) and the build process (main work) by improving the generated code optimizer (optional work). These changes do not affect the definition of parsers and do not break the work. This refers to the implementation details of the parser builders. The implementation of the new code optimizer is under development as it requires the development of a simple data flow analyzer

0.16.1 #

The improvement of code generation in the new version is almost completed

0.16.0 #

Breaking change: Everything is implemented almost from scratch. Now code generation is done with the code generator

0.15.4 #

Improved Verify parser builder. Now the failure position in ErrMessage is set not to the initial position, but to the last position. Previously, this was not possible (before the improvement of the system for working with parsing errors). This applies only to cases where verification fails. In fact, this is the purpose of the generated Verify parser
Minor improvements to the error reporting system

0.15.3 #

Another round to improve the error reporting system. Without breaking changes. This system is getting better and better. The results are already very good. All known shortcomings (and found bugs) have been fixed
Implemented and not tested parser builder Verify. It is very, very helpful. Allows, at runtime, to influence the parsing process and to program "smart" parsing rules in the grammar. For example, define a parser that will check the number of arguments of a known function. It is programmed not flexibly, but rigidly (you can also flexibly, this is a matter of taste). The main thing is that it works. And it works on top of another parser. No need to write duplicate code. Great

0.15.2 #

Fixed minor bug in parser builder SwitchTag

0.15.1 #

Slightly improved the code generated by parser builder ManyTill. Generated errors are now more informative
Another round to improve the error reporting system. Now the parsing error post processing procedures generate a more informative error report when using the builder Nested. Changes were made to improve the post-processing of ErrNested errors. Generated errors that are nested relative to an ErrNested error are now temporarily wrapped and do not affect the process of determining the furthest position of an error when filtering errors by their position. This allows more errors to be displayed and, at the same time, it allows to reduce the number of unnecessary error messages where it is required, combining them into one informative error (combination of main error and furthest errors if they are further than main error)
Breaking change: The signature of the parser builder constructor Nested has been changed. The parameter Tag tag is non nullable now and must be specified

0.15.0 #

Improved error reporting procedures. Fixed shortcomings, defects and errors in post-processing errors when creating a parser error report. Now the error messages look like they should
Slightly changed the implementation of the experimental parser builder SwitchTag to improve error reporting
Breaking change: The way of generating and reporting errors with nested errors has been unified. The number of error types for such cases has been reduced, instead one type has been left (ErrNested). This type has been changed and is now universal and easily customizable
Implemented parser builder Nested (this is a reworked builder Malformed)
Breaking change: Removed parser builder Malformed in favor of using parser builder Nested. It supports specifying an error message value and optionally specifying a tag value
Breaking change: The Labeled parser builder has been renamed to Expected. To more accurately reflect its purpose

0.14.4 #

Removed lightweight runtime. The use of this implementation did not allow a correct comparison (and filtration) of the errors in error reporting procedures. As a result, errors messages were redundant and not correct

0.14.3 #

Implemented, tested and documented experimental parser builder CombinedList1
Breaking change: Changed the signature of the method Transformation.checkArguments(). Added new parameter String information. This is done to make it easier to find the location of the exception when calling this method. The common value is the transformer template or other useful information to identify the transformer. This applies only to the implementation of transformers
Breaking change: Changed definition and behavior of transformer VarTransformer. Now it's a combination of a variable and an expression. The definition of the variable, the key of this variable in the expression template, and the expression (using this variable) are specified. Previously, it was possible to use only a variable by name, without the ability to use it as part of an expression. This helps make it easier to the creation of more flexible, faster, configurable (including in real time) parsers
Fixed bug in transformer NotCharClass

0.14.2 #

Added many improvements to the parser builder StringValue. The overall performance of parsing data with String values can be increased by up to 10%
Documented and tested parser builder StringValue
Implemented, tested and documented experimental parser builder SwitchTag. This parser builder is intended mainly for the implementation of fast lexers, but can be used (with a clever approach) for other purposes. The JSON parser (example) now parses slightly faster when using this builder in JSON parser definition
Implemented constructor ExprTransformer.value(this.expression). To simplify the definition of expression transformers without parameters
Implemented, tested and documented parser builder Skip. This builder is intended to be used in conjunction with the builder SwitchTag to avoid reparsing already parsed simple data (such as literals or punctuation)

0.14.1 #

Fixed minor bug in builder SkipWhile1
Implemented constructor ErrUnexpected.charOrEof(this.offset, String source, [int? c]). Simplified (improved) the generated code of some parsers that parse characters and select the generated error depending on the position of parsing
Implemented constructor ErrUnexpected.charAt(this.offset, String source

0.14.0 #

Breaking change: Changes have been made to the State class. The opt field has been removed. Instead, a log field has been added to indicate the need for error logging. This is an internal change that does not affect parser definitions

0.12.2 #

Implemented experimental parser builder TakeWhile1Fold
Improved character and string parser builders. The overall performance of the parsing process can be increased up to 3%
Improved transformers (character predicates) CharClass, NotCharClass The overall performance of the parsing process can be increased up to 2%

0.12.1 #

Changed helper function signature fastBuild(). Added named parameter Map<String, Named> publish = const {}. Example of specifying arguments: publish: {'parse': _json}. This will create the function dynamic parse(String source). This makes it possible not to write public parsing functions by hand. The specified public parsing functions will be created automatically with the specified names and will be available for impossibility by users

0.12.0 #

Breaking change: Transformers can now have multiple parameters. This allows them to be used as converter (mapper) functions with multiple parameters. An example of a typical use is use of them with the Map2, Map3 (etc) parsers
Implemented and tested parser builders FoldMany0
Implemented and tested parser builders Map2, Map3, Map4, Map5, Map6, Map7
Breaking change: The parser builder Map$ has been renamed to Map1

0.11.0 #

Breaking change: Transformers have become more powerful, much easier to use and clearer. And now they are full citizens, they have access to the building context and can allocate local variables and have access to global declarations. The number of methods has been reduced to two methods: declare (optional) and invoke. This makes it possible to implement more efficient configurable (on startup) and context-sensitive parsers
Improved generated source code of some character and string parsers. The overall performance of the parsing process can be increased up to 3%

0.10.2 #

Improved character and string parser builders. Performance can be increased up to 5-7%
Slightly improved the code generated by transformers CharClass, NotCharClass for small character ranges. The overall performance can be increased not less than 2% due to increasing performance of the frequently called critical parser functions that parse string data (character by character) in a loop using these transformers as predicates

0.10.1 #

Fixed a bug in the transformer NotCharClass that could affect the work of parsers that are sensitive to parsing 32-bit characters, to which this transformer will be passed as a predicate. A rare case, but still a bug. The transformer NotCharClass now always returns true when calling its method has32BitChars

0.10.0 #

Breaking change: Another round of improvements. Now it's time to improve transformers. Transformers now allow you to solve different problems. Transformers now have three main features: declare, inline and invoke. Each transformer must support the declare and invoke capability. Support for inline is optional, but it's the support for this feature that makes them very performant (and parsers too). The most requested transformers are already available, but nothing prevents you from creating your own transformer with the necessary functionality. All parser builders have already been updated to use the new transformers, which increases performance by at least 10% and makes the source code a little smaller
Removed all existing transformers
Added transformers ClosureTransformer, ExprTransformer, FuncExprTransformer, FuncTransformer, VarTransformer

0.9.2 #

Breaking change: The parser builder Skip has been renamed to Sequence
Breaking change: The parser builder SkipMany0 has been removed so as not to make modifications with minor differences. Instead, it is recommended to use the following combination of parsers Many0Count(Sequence(p1, p2, etc))

0.9.1 #

Minor changes in the parser builders

0.9.0 #

Introduced a new feature called optional mode. Does not make breaking changes. Operates automatically. Principle of operation (briefly): tells parsers not to generate errors in optional mode because errors are not used (ignored) in this mode. Benefits: significant reduction in memory usage, 5-10% increase in performance

0.8.2 #

Documented and tested parser builder EscapeSequence
Minor improvements in the Number parser. Now the generated parser parses even a little faster. The parser is currently only used internally, when generating a JSON parser example

0.8.1 #

Improved most string parser builders. The generated code is fast again
Minor improvements in parser builders Alpha0, Alpha1, Alphanumeric0, Alphanumeric1, Digit0, Digit1, HexDigit0, HexDigit1
Removed parser builders Crlf, LineEnding in favor of using parser builder Tags which generates code more efficiently than the original code for these removed builders

0.8.0 #

Breaking change: String parser builders have been revert back. The reason is that Dart is completely unpredictable in terms of predicting performance when writing code. Performance can be reduced by 20% with just a few changes to the source code. Dart is not C/C++, what should be fast in C/C++ will not necessarily be fast in Dart

0.7.2 #

Minor changes in the parser builders
Slightly improved generated code (for short tags) by parser builders NoneOfTags, Tags. Now tags can be specified in any order, the parsing will be done correctly in every case

0.7.1 #

Fixed bugs in parser builders that generate parsers use other parsers and, at the same time, restore the parsing state. Generated parsers did not restore the value of the newly introduced field of the current character state.ch. These builders include Not, Peek
Slightly improved generated code by parser builders NoneOf, OneOf. The generated parser code has become a little faster and a little smaller in size

0.7.0 #

Breaking change: String parser builders have been reimplemented to use methods state.getChar(), state.nextChar(), state.readChar() and field state.ch. The methods are implemented as static extension methods for the State<String> class. This change generates a more readable parser source code and reduces its size by 10% and may slightly reduce parser performance by 5-10%.

0.6.0 #

Breaking change: Unified declaration and usage of the Transformer. The transformer code must be a function body or a callable object. If the code is the body of a function, then the function will be declared, otherwise the variable will be declared. In both cases, the generated code must be used as a function call.
Breaking change: Removed bool search parameter from class CharClass, added RangeProcessing processing parameter

0.5.2 #

Implemented and tested parser builders NoneOfEx, TagEx

0.5.1-3.dev #

Minor code changes

0.5.1-2.dev #

Implemented and tested parser builders TakeUntil, TakeUntil1

Changed function signature fastBuild(). Added named parameter bool lightweightRuntime = true
The parser builder Many0 has been optimized for size
The parser builder Many1 has been optimized for size
The parser builder SeparatedList0 has been optimized for size
The parser builder SeparatedList1 has been optimized for size

0.5.0 #

Breaking change: The Err type has been redesigned to reduce the size of the memory consumption. Now error generation consumes 20-25% less memory

0.4.5-2.dev #

Added documentation for parser builders from the library character
Implemented and tested parser builders ManyTill
Added some documentation for runtime classes

0.4.5-1.dev #

Optimized an operation algorithm of the transformer CharClass
Fixed bug in transformer CharClass
Implemented and tested parser builders SkipMany0, TakeWhileExcept

0.4.4 #

The syntax used in CharClass has been extended. It is now possible to combine ranges [A-Za-z0-9_] | "$".

0.4.3-2-dev #

Fixed bug in method tagNoCase in extension on String

0.4.3-1-dev #

Implemented and tested the optional feature to use binary search for the transformer CharClass. It can be turned on or off when measuring the effectiveness of using a particular search method
The Allocator now supports variable names
Implemented and tested parser builders Crlf, LineEnding, TakeWhileUntil
Added parameter bool format = true to the function fastBuild()
The numbering algorithm for local variables has been slightly improved

0.4.2 #

Implemented and tested transformer CharClass

0.4.1-1.dev #

Fixed bug in ParserBuilder.buildBodyEx()

0.4.0 #

Breaking change: The generated parser body is no longer wrapped in a for statement. This makes the code smaller and more readable

0.3.1-1.dev #

Removed class Result from runtime library
Implemented and tested parser builders Skip
Added documentation for parser builders from the library bytes
Breaking change: Renamed parser builder MapRes to Map$. The MapRes will be implemented later

0.3.0 #

Breaking change: The generated parser no longer requires result value wrapping. This increases parsing performance by 10-20%

0.2.1-4.dev #

Added a script fast_build.dart with a function fastBuild to simplify build process
Implemented and tested parser builders Alphanumeric0, Alphanumeric1, AnyChar, HexDigit0, HexDigit1

0.2.1-3.dev #

Implemented and tested parser builders SkipWhile1
Added support for an unofficial way to display error messages (for development purposes) via the getErrorMessageProcessor function
Breaking change: Removed all building methods from context class Context
- Added class ParseRuntime with source codes of static declarations necessary for the runtime of the generated parsers

0.2.1-2.dev #

Implemented and tested parser builders Alpha0, Alpha1, Digit0, Digit1, NoneOfTags, TakeWhile1
A new method BuildBodyEx has been introduced, which is currently the basis for building the parser body from a template
Renamed parser builder SkipWhile0 to SkipWhile
Breaking change: The parser builders TakeWhile, TakeWhileMN now return a parsed string instead of a character list. It was a mistake to implement them to return a list

0.2.1-1.dev #

Implemented and tested parser builders Consumed, Not, Peek, Recognize, Tags, Tuple2, Tuple3, Tuple4, Tuple5, Tuple6, Tuple7
Changed parser builder Eof from Eof extends ParserBuilder<String, dynamic> to Eof<I> extends ParserBuilder<I, dynamic>. Now it can be used not only with String data
