jlexing
A package containing various types commonly used in lexical analyzers and parsers.
Features
- Common immutable lexical position types.
- High coverage test suite.
- OSGi-ready
- JPMS-ready
- ISC license.
Motivation
Many io7m projects contain hand-written parsers
and lexers. The jlexing package exists to declare common lexer types so
that nearly-identical versions of those types don't have to be repeatedly
written for every project.
Usage
The LexicalPositionType represents a span in a region of text. It includes
a mutable builder for constructing immutable LexicalPosition values:
final LexicalPosition.Builder<Path> b0 =
LexicalPosition.builder();
b0.setLine(23);
b0.setColumn(24);
b0.setColumnEnd(30);
b0.setFile(Optional.of(path0));
b0.setFile(path1);
final LexicalPosition<Path> p =
b0.build();

Development Snapshots
At the time of writing, the current unstable development version of the package is 3.3.0-SNAPSHOT.
Development snapshots may be available in the Central Portal Snapshots repository. Snapshots are published to this repository every time the project is built by the project's continuous integration system, but snapshots do expire after around ninety days and so may or may not be available depending on when a build of the package was last triggered.
