Doubt with the switch of the Generator of Lexical and Syntactic Analyzers (GALS)

Navigation

GALS generates the code in Java. I want to put it in the eclipse to make a little screen and such. I was told that in method nextState of class lexico , you have to put a switch with a number. But where do these numbers come from? 

private int nextState(char c, int state)
{
    switch (state)
    {
        case 0:
            switch (c)
            {
                case 9: return 1;
                case 10: return 1;
                case 13: return 1;
                case 32: return 1;
                case 33: return 2;
                case 34: return 3;
                case 40: return 4;
                case 41: return 5;
                case 42: return 6;
                case 43: return 7;
                case 44: return 8;
                case 45: return 9;
                case 47: return 10;
                case 48: return 11;
                case 49: return 11;

Note that the c variable is of type char . So if we use characters instead of numbers according to the ASCII table codes, we will have the following: 

private int nextState(char c, int state)
{
    switch (state)
    {
        case 0:
            switch (c)
            {
                case '\t': return 1;
                case '\n': return 1;
                case '\r': return 1;
                case ' ': return 1;
                case '!': return 2;
                case '\"': return 3;
                case '(': return 4;

That is, these numbers are characters of the text that the lex analyzer is processing.

The numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 that you have in return s are states of your lex analyzer:

  • The analysis begins in state 0.

  • When you find a blank space, line break or tab, it goes to state 1.

  • When it encounters an exclamation point, it enters state 2. I do not know what that means in its language, but state 2 may indicate that it means only that the operator denoted by the exclamation point has been found. It may also be that the exclamation point indicates the beginning of a comment and state 2 would represent being within a comment. Check out in your grammar what it means to find yourself an exclamation mark.

  • When you find a double quotation mark, it enters state 3, which would probably indicate that it is within a string.

Now that you've posted your most complete code, the code you posted would be equivalent to this: 

private int nextState(char c, int state) {
    switch (state) {
        case 0:
            switch (c) {
                case '\t':
                case '\n':
                case '\r':
                case ' ': return 1;
                case '!': return 2;
                case '\"': return 3;
                case '(': return 4;
                case ')': return 5;
                case '*': return 6;
                case '+': return 7;
                case ',': return 8;
                case '-': return 9;
                case '/': return 10;
                case ';': return 12;
                case '<': return 13;
                case '=': return 14;
                case '>': return 15;
                case '{': return 17;
                case '}': return 18;
                default:
                    if (c >= '0' && c <= '9') return 11;
                    if ((c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') || (c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') return 16;
                    return -1;
            }
        case 1:
            if (c == '\t' || c == '\n' || c ==  \r' || c == ' ') return 1;
            return -1;
        case 3:
            if (c == '\"') return 19;
            if (c == '\t' || c == '\n' || c == '\r' || (c >= ' ' && c <= '~') || (c >= 160 && c <= 255) return 3;
            return -1;
        case 10:
            return c == '*' ? 20 : -1;
        case 11:
            if (c == '.') return 21;
            if (c >= '0' && c <= '9') return 11;
            return -1;
        case 13:
            if (c == '=') return 22;
            if (c == '>') return 23;
            return -1;
        case 14:
            if (c == '=') return 24;
            return -1;
        case 15:
            if (c == '=') return 25;
            return -1;
        case 16:
            if (c >= '0' && c <= '9') return 26;
            if ((c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') || c == '_' || (c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') return 16;
            return -1;
        default:
            return -1;
    }
}

Looking at these status codes based on this table, we come to this:

}

Note that this still seems to be incomplete because comments started with /* do not end, numbers that find the decimal point do not continue to be parsed, and also do not continue to parse identifiers that have a number in the middle.

Note that this is nothing more than a way to implement the table of the image you gave, where char c is the column and int state is the row. What this function does is look at that table to answer the following question:

  

From a given state when a given character is in the input, what should be the next state?

The -1 seems (but I'm not sure) to indicate both the error state and the state that tells the lex analyzer to stop producing a token in response to the parser, and then restart (in state 0) to search of the next token.

The characters from 32 (space) to 126 (til) and from 160 to 255 of state 3 are characters that can appear within a string, and correspond to the printable characters of the ASCII table. The way the strings are treated in your table does not allow escape sequences for " and no Unicode characters (Russian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Indian, accented characters, mathematical symbols, emoji, etc.) / p>
