Module Error_reporter.Make
Generate the error reporter from a failed parser.
The Parser
has to be a failed parser i.e. a parser which has ended either with a syntax error or a semantic error.
Parameters
module Parser : FAILED_PARSER
Signature
Types
type semantic = Parser.semantic
Type of the semantic error.
Make an error reporter
Make an error reported for a parser which has failed with a syntax error.
Precondition: Parser.has_failed_syntax p
val make :
(semantic -> Position.range) ->
(semantic -> Fmlib_pretty.Print.doc) ->
Parser.t ->
t
make semantic_range semantic_doc p
Generate an error reporter from
semantic_range
: Function which computes from a semantic error a range in the source file where the error occurred.semantic_doc
: Function which computes from a semantic error a pretty print document.p
: The parser which ended in an error state
The functions for semantic errors have to be provided by the user because semantic errors are transparent to the parser. In case the parser cannot end in a semantic error (i.e. no fail
combinator has been used), then use make_syntax
.
Run the error reporter
In order to run the error reporter some kind of a stream is needed which represents the source code where an error has occurred. The reporter extracts a source snippet which contains the error and marks the error position. After the code snippet it adds an error message describing the error.
val run_on_string : string -> t -> Fmlib_pretty.Print.doc
run the reporter on a string which represents the source code.
val run_on_channel : in_channel -> t -> Fmlib_pretty.Print.doc
run the reporter on an input channel which represents the source code. Note that the input channel must be positioned at the start.
val run_on_channels : in_channel -> int -> out_channel -> t -> unit
run_on_channels ic width oc r
Run the reporter on an input channel which represents the source code. Note that the input channel must be positioned at the start.
Then write the error report with the text width width
to the output channel oc
.
Run with inverted control
This type makes the error reporter an instance of Fmlib_std.Interfaces.SINK
.
val needs_more : t -> bool
Does the reporter need more characters from the source file?
val document : t -> Fmlib_pretty.Print.doc
The document containing a source snippet which contains the marked error and the error message.
