Similar to the previous commit: list() syntactically accepts any
expression and non-variables are compile-time errors. The special
case of ($a) ends up being legal by accident.
Partial fix for #653. PHP 7 allows expressions inside isset(), but
rejects non-variables in the compiler. A side-effect of this is that
isset(($x)) is allowed, though this is not intentional.
Previously zero-length nop nodes used the lookahead start attributes
and current end attributes. This choice ends up being somewhat weird,
because the end attributes will be the at the last non-whitespace,
non-comment token, which might be quite far back. More problematically,
we may not have encountered any non-discarded token if we're at the
start of the file, in which case we will have no end attributes to
assign.
Change things to use a canonical "zero-length" node representation,
where the end position (token & file) will be exactly one before the
start position.
Fixes#589.
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.
Use class_name production and emit the same error as for
"extends self" and "extends parent". It's weird that "extends
static" gives a different result than those two.
Instead assign attributes on Nop nodes and in the pretty printer
specially handle end<start offsets. It's a somewhat weird case,
but not wrong per se given the meaning the offsets have.
For representing Identifiers that have an implicit leading $.
With this done, maybe go one step further?
* Rename VarLikeIdentifier -> VarIdentifier / VarName
* Use VarIdentifier / VarName also as an inner node in Variable.
Not sure if this adds any real value.
