Minor performance improvement for parsing, also allows to access
attributes with higher granulity in the parser, though this is not
currently done.
* #n can now be used to access the stack position of a token. $n
is the same as $this->semStack[#n]. (Post-translate $n will
actually be the stack position.)
* $attributeStack is now $this->startAttributeStack and
$endAttributes is now $this->endAttributes.
* Attributes for a node are now computed inside the individual
reduction methods, instead of being passed as a parameter.
Accessible through the attributes() macro.
This fixes the case where the old name is used before the new one
is ever used, e.g. when manually constructing nodes, as opposed to
parsing them.
The previous approach would try to register the alias from OLD to
NEW. This would trigger autoloading on NEW and afterwards it would
register the alias from OLD to NEW. Afterwards the alias registration
which originally triggered the autoload would run, thus redeclaring
the class.
TL;DR aliases suck, closes#192.
Were this library to be fully annotated with scalar types and
return types where possible and were strict types to be enabled
for all files, the test suite would now pass.
Running a .phar or regular PHP executable that requires and includes its own
version of php-parser will cause a "cannot redeclare class" error if said
executable also includes the autoloader of the current working directory.
This adds an additional "returnType" subnode to Stmt\Function_,
Stmt\ClassMethod and Expr\Closure, as well as the corresponding
support in the name resolver and pretty printer.
Instead of storing subnodes in a subNodes dictionary, they are
now stored as simple properties. This requires declarating the
properties, assigning them in the constructor, overriding
the getSubNodeNames() method and passing NULL to the first argument
of the NodeAbstract constructor.
[Deprecated: It's still possible to use the old mode of operation
for custom nodes by passing an array of subnodes to the constructor.]
The only behavior difference this should cause is that getSubNodeNames()
will always return the original subnode names and skip any additional
properties that were dynamically added. E.g. this means that the
"namespacedName" node added by the NameResolver visitor is not treated
as a subnode, but as a dynamic property instead.
This change improves performance and memory usage.
HHVM does not throw warnings from token_get_all()
for invalid chars and unterminated comments. This
is not really integral functionality, so I'm okay
to just skip it to get a passing HHVM build.
When parsing on PHP 7 we will no longer be able to deal with
code that contains invalid octal literals. Currently we'll fatal,
after engine exceptions land we'll throw an exception instead.
