Previously the pretty printer added unnecessary and odd-looking parentheses
when several operators with the same precedence were chained:
'a' . 'b' . 'c' . 'd' . 'e'
// was printed as
'a' . ('b' . ('c' . ('d' . 'e')))
Another issue reported as part of #39 was that assignments inside closures
were wrapped in parentheses:
function() {
$a = $b;
}
// was printed as
function() {
($a = $b);
}
This was caused by the automatic precedence handling, which just regarded
the closure as an ordinal nested expression.
With the new system the $predenceMap of PrettyPrinterAbstract contains both
precedence and associativity and there is a new method pPrec() which prints
a node taking precedence and associativity into account.
For simpler usage there are additional function pInfixOp(), pPrefixOp() and
pPostfixOp().
Prints not going through pPrec() do not have any precedence handling (fixing
the closure issue).
Directly creating the node isn't necessary anymore, the token only needs
to be parsed. This makes it consistent with the other scalar parsing
methods and removes the need to pass $arguments around.
* nested list()s will now create nested List nodes (instead of just
nested arrays)
* yield $k => $v was parsed with key and value swapped. This is now fixed
* the pretty printer now works with the newly added language constructs
Example: foreach ($coords as list($x, $y)) { ... }
This change slightly breaks backwards compatability, as it changes the
node structure for the previously existing `list(...) = $foo` assignments.
Those no longer have a dedicated `AssignList` node; instead they are
parsed as a normal `Assign` node with a `List` as `var`. Similarly the
use in `foreach` will generate a `List` for `valueVar`.
Travis 5.2 seems to have changed the float output precision, so a test was
failing. Now the numbers in the expected output are also provided by PHP,
so they should be the same.
The new dereferencing syntaxes (new Foo)->bar and (new Foo)['bar'] were
causing a shift/reduce conflict with the '(' expr ')' rule. When
(new Foo) was encountered (without dereference operators following) the
parser thus threw a parse error.
The fix simply adds a special '(' new_expr ')' rule to expr. This does not
remove the shift/reduce conflict itself, but makes it irrelevant.
This fixes issue #20.
getDocComment() now returns the last comment (given that it is a doc
comment). setDocComment() no longer exists, as it doesn't make sense
with the comment objects anymore. getAttribute() now returns by reference,
so it also works in reference contexts.
Now two arrays are fetched from the lexer: $startAttributes and
$endAttributes. When constructing the attributes for a node, the
$startAttributes from the first token of the node and the $endAttributes
of the last token of the node are merged.
Now the end line is saved in the endLine attribute.
The yacc parser skeleton with all those odd $yy short names is quite
non-obvious. This commits starts to refactor it a bit, to use more
obvious names and logic.
Now the lexer is injected only once when creating the parser. Instead of
$parser = new PHPParser_Parser;
$parser->parse(new PHPParser_Lexer($code));
$parser->parse(new PHPParser_Lexer($code2));
you write:
$parser = new PHPParser_Parser(new PHPParser_Lexer);
$parser->parse($code);
$parser->parse($code2);
