Func< LNode, LNode > | ResultSaver |
A function that saves the result produced by the matching code of this predicate (null if the result is not saved). For example, if the parser generator is given the predicate @[ x='a'..'z' ] , the default matching code will be @(Match('a', 'z')), and ResultSaver will be set to a function that receives this matching code and returns @(x = Match('a', 'z')) in response.

Public Member Functions | |
override void | Call (PredVisitor visitor) |
Gate (LNode basis, Pred predictor, Pred match) | |
override Pred | Clone () |
Deep-clones a predicate tree. Terminal sets and Nodes referenced by the tree are not cloned; the clone's value of Next will be null. The same Pred cannot appear in two places in a tree, so you must clone before re-use. More... | |

virtual string | ChooseGotoLabel () |
Optional. If this predicate represents the matching code for a branch of an Alts and this code is reached through a goto statement, this method is used to select a label name. Supported by RuleRef. More... | |

getset |
If true, this is an "<=>" equivalency gate, otherwise it's a "=>" normal gate.
This controls the follow set of the predictor. For a "=>" normal gate, the predictor (left-hand side) has anything (_*) as its follow set. For an equivalency, in which the predictor side and the match side are intended to represent the same language, the follow set of the predictor will be the same as that of the match; both are set to whatever follows the gate as a whole.
The "=>" normal gate is often used to simplify or tweak prediction decisions, e.g. in this example the gate is intended to ensure that the caller will not call Number unless LA0 is ('.'|'0'..'9'):
Notice that the predictor is, in general, shorter than the match side. It could potentially confuse the caller if the follow set of the predictor and match sides were the same. An equivalency gate, on the other hand, should be the same length as the match side, so it can have the same follow set (I don't have a use case in mind for an equivalency gate yet).
