If indentation is invalid, we strip on a best-effort basis.
The error position information is not great, but I don't want to
introduce sub-token error positioning at this point in time.
Move doc string parsing logic from rebuildParsers.php and
String_::parseDocString() into ParserAbstract. This stuff is
going to get complicated now.
For now only implement the validation of the indentation on the
end label.
The parser will now always generate Identifier nodes (for
non-namespaced identifiers). This obsoletes the useIdentifierNodes
parser option.
Node constructors still accepts strings and will implicitly create
an Identifier wrapper. Identifier implement __toString(), so that
outside of strict-mode many things continue to work without changes.
The dispatch using $this->{'reduceRule' . $rule}() is very expensive
because it involves
* One allocation when converting $rule to a string
* Another allocation when concatenating the two strings
* Lowercasing during the method call
* Various uncached method checks, e.g. visibility.
Using an array of closures for semantic action dispatch is
significantly more efficient.
We're accessing $this->stackPos a lot, and property accesses are
much more expensive than local variable acesses. Its cheaper to
use a local var and pass it as an argument to semantic actions.
The parameter case is a bit weird, because the subnode is called
"name" here, rather than "var". Nothing we can do about that in
this version though.
The two parser options might be merged. I've kept it separate,
because I think this variable representation should become the
default (or even only representation) in the future, while I'm
less sure about the Identifier thing.
In this mode non-namespaced names that are currently represented
using strings will be represented using Identifier nodes instead.
Identifier nodes have a string $name subnode and coerce to string.
This allows preserving attributes and in particular location
information on identifiers.
Add ErrorHandler interface, as well as ErrorHandler\Throwing
and ErrorHandler\Collecting. The error handler is passed to
Parser::parse(). This supersedes the throwOnError option.
NameResolver now accepts an ErrorHandler in the ctor.
Nearly all special errors are now handled gracefully, i.e. the
parser will be able to continue after encountering them. In some
cases the associated error range has been improved using the new
end attribute stack.
To achieve this the error handling code has been moved out of the
node constructors and into special methods in the parser.
Lexer::startLexing() no longer throws, instead errors can be fetched
using Lexer::getErrors().
Lexer errors now also contain full line and position information.
