    • enterRule

      public void enterRule(String grammarFileName, String ruleName)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      The parser has just entered a rule. No decision has been made about which alt is predicted. This is fired AFTER init actions have been executed. Attributes are defined and available etc... The grammarFileName allows composite grammars to jump around among multiple grammar files.
      Specified by:
      enterRule in interface DebugEventListener
    • exitRule

      public void exitRule(String grammarFileName, String ruleName)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      This is the last thing executed before leaving a rule. It is executed even if an exception is thrown. This is triggered after error reporting and recovery have occurred (unless the exception is not caught in this rule). This implies an "exitAlt" event. The grammarFileName allows composite grammars to jump around among multiple grammar files.
      Specified by:
      exitRule in interface DebugEventListener
    • enterAlt

      public void enterAlt(int alt)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Because rules can have lots of alternatives, it is very useful to know which alt you are entering. This is 1..n for n alts.
      Specified by:
      enterAlt in interface DebugEventListener
    • enterSubRule

      public void enterSubRule(int decisionNumber)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Track entry into any (...) subrule other EBNF construct
      Specified by:
      enterSubRule in interface DebugEventListener
    • exitSubRule

      public void exitSubRule(int decisionNumber)
      Specified by:
      exitSubRule in interface DebugEventListener
    • enterDecision

      public void enterDecision(int decisionNumber)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Every decision, fixed k or arbitrary, has an enter/exit event so that a GUI can easily track what LT/consume events are associated with prediction. You will see a single enter/exit subrule but multiple enter/exit decision events, one for each loop iteration.
      Specified by:
      enterDecision in interface DebugEventListener
    • exitDecision

      public void exitDecision(int decisionNumber)
      Specified by:
      exitDecision in interface DebugEventListener
    • location

      public void location(int line, int pos)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      To watch a parser move through the grammar, the parser needs to inform the debugger what line/charPos it is passing in the grammar. For now, this does not know how to switch from one grammar to the other and back for island grammars etc... This should also allow breakpoints because the debugger can stop the parser whenever it hits this line/pos.

      location in interface DebugEventListener
    • consumeToken

      public void consumeToken(Token token)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      An input token was consumed; matched by any kind of element. Trigger after the token was matched by things like match(), matchAny().
      Specified by:
      consumeToken in interface DebugEventListener
    • consumeHiddenToken

      public void consumeHiddenToken(Token token)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      An off-channel input token was consumed. Trigger after the token was matched by things like match(), matchAny(). (unless of course the hidden token is first stuff in the input stream).
      Specified by:
      consumeHiddenToken in interface DebugEventListener
    • LT

      public void LT(int i, Token t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Somebody (anybody) looked ahead. Note that this actually gets triggered by both LA and LT calls. The debugger will want to know which Token object was examined. Like consumeToken, this indicates what token was seen at that depth. A remote debugger cannot look ahead into a file it doesn't have so LT events must pass the token even if the info is redundant.
      Specified by:
      LT in interface DebugEventListener
    • mark

      public void mark(int i)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      The parser is going to look arbitrarily ahead; mark this location, the token stream's marker is sent in case you need it.
      Specified by:
      mark in interface DebugEventListener
    • rewind

      public void rewind(int i)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      After an arbitrairly long lookahead as with a cyclic DFA (or with any backtrack), this informs the debugger that stream should be rewound to the position associated with marker.
      Specified by:
      rewind in interface DebugEventListener
    • rewind

      public void rewind()
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Rewind to the input position of the last marker. Used currently only after a cyclic DFA and just before starting a sem/syn predicate to get the input position back to the start of the decision. Do not "pop" the marker off the state. mark(i) and rewind(i) should balance still.
      Specified by:
      rewind in interface DebugEventListener
    • beginBacktrack

      public void beginBacktrack(int level)
      Specified by:

    • recognitionException

      public void recognitionException(RecognitionException e)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      A recognition exception occurred such as NoViableAltException. I made this a generic event so that I can alter the exception hierachy later without having to alter all the debug objects. Upon error, the stack of enter rule/subrule must be properly unwound. If no viable alt occurs it is within an enter/exit decision, which also must be rewound. Even the rewind for each mark must be unwount. In the Java target this is pretty easy using try/finally, if a bit ugly in the generated code. The rewind is generated in DFA.predict() actually so no code needs to be generated for that. For languages w/o this "finally" feature (C++?), the target implementor will have to build an event stack or something. Across a socket for remote debugging, only the RecognitionException data fields are transmitted. The token object or whatever that caused the problem was the last object referenced by LT. The immediately preceding LT event should hold the unexpected Token or char. Here is a sample event trace for grammar: b : C ({;}A|B) // {;} is there to prevent A|B becoming a set | D ; The sequence for this rule (with no viable alt in the subrule) for input 'c c' (there are 3 tokens) is: commence LT(1) enterRule b location 7 1 enter decision 3 LT(1) exit decision 3 enterAlt1 location 7 5 LT(1) consumeToken [c/<4>,1:0] location 7 7 enterSubRule 2 enter decision 2 LT(1) LT(1) recognitionException NoViableAltException 2 1 2 exit decision 2 exitSubRule 2 beginResync LT(1) consumeToken [c/<4>,1:1] LT(1) endResync LT(-1) exitRule b terminate

    • beginResync

      public void beginResync()
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Indicates the recognizer is about to consume tokens to resynchronize the parser. Any consume events from here until the recovered event are not part of the parse--they are dead tokens.
      Specified by:
      beginResync in interface DebugEventListener
    • endResync

      public void endResync()
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Indicates that the recognizer has finished consuming tokens in order to resychronize. There may be multiple beginResync/endResync pairs before the recognizer comes out of errorRecovery mode (in which multiple errors are suppressed). This will be useful in a gui where you want to probably grey out tokens that are consumed but not matched to anything in grammar. Anything between a beginResync/endResync pair was tossed out by the parser.
      Specified by:
      endResync in interface DebugEventListener
    • semanticPredicate

      public void semanticPredicate(boolean result, String predicate)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      A semantic predicate was evaluate with this result and action text
      Specified by:
      semanticPredicate in interface DebugEventListener
    • commence

      public void commence()
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Announce that parsing has begun. Not technically useful except for sending events over a socket. A GUI for example will launch a thread to connect and communicate with a remote parser. The thread will want to notify the GUI when a connection is made. ANTLR parsers trigger this upon entry to the first rule (the ruleLevel is used to figure this out).
      Specified by:
      commence in interface DebugEventListener
    • terminate

      public void terminate()
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Parsing is over; successfully or not. Mostly useful for telling remote debugging listeners that it's time to quit. When the rule invocation level goes to zero at the end of a rule, we are done parsing.
      Specified by:
      terminate in interface DebugEventListener
    • consumeNode

      public void consumeNode(Object t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Input for a tree parser is an AST, but we know nothing for sure about a node except its type and text (obtained from the adaptor). This is the analog of the consumeToken method. Again, the ID is the hashCode usually of the node so it only works if hashCode is not implemented. If the type is UP or DOWN, then the ID is not really meaningful as it's fixed--there is just one UP node and one DOWN navigation node.
      Specified by:
      consumeNode in interface DebugEventListener
    • LT

      public void LT(int i, Object t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      The tree parser lookedahead. If the type is UP or DOWN, then the ID is not really meaningful as it's fixed--there is just one UP node and one DOWN navigation node.
      Specified by:
      LT in interface DebugEventListener
    • nilNode

      public void nilNode(Object t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      A nil was created (even nil nodes have a unique ID... they are not "null" per se). As of 4/28/2006, this seems to be uniquely triggered when starting a new subtree such as when entering a subrule in automatic mode and when building a tree in rewrite mode. If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only t.ID is set.
      Specified by:
      nilNode in interface DebugEventListener
    • errorNode

      public void errorNode(Object t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Upon syntax error, recognizers bracket the error with an error node if they are building ASTs.
      Specified by:
      errorNode in interface DebugEventListener
    • createNode

      public void createNode(Object t)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Announce a new node built from token elements such as type etc... If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only t.ID, type, text are set.
      Specified by:
      createNode in interface DebugEventListener
    • createNode

      public void createNode(Object node, Token token)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Announce a new node built from an existing token. If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only node.ID and token.tokenIndex are set.
      Specified by:
      createNode in interface DebugEventListener
    • becomeRoot

      public void becomeRoot(Object newRoot, Object oldRoot)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Make a node the new root of an existing root. See Note: the newRootID parameter is possibly different than the TreeAdaptor.becomeRoot() newRoot parameter. In our case, it will always be the result of calling TreeAdaptor.becomeRoot() and not root_n or whatever. The listener should assume that this event occurs only when the current subrule (or rule) subtree is being reset to newRootID. If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only IDs are set.
      Specified by:
      becomeRoot in interface DebugEventListener
    • addChild

      public void addChild(Object root, Object child)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Make childID a child of rootID. If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only IDs are set.
      Specified by:
      addChild in interface DebugEventListener
    • setTokenBoundaries

      public void setTokenBoundaries(Object t, int tokenStartIndex, int tokenStopIndex)
      Description copied from interface: DebugEventListener
      Set the token start/stop token index for a subtree root or node. If you are receiving this event over a socket via RemoteDebugEventSocketListener then only t.ID is set.
      Specified by:
