The stdlib functions specify the difference between `err` and `errx`
is that the former prints a message obtained with `strerror`.
However, RGBDS' implementation breaks that contract, and `warn`'s puts the
added semicolon in the wrong place.
This is especially useful when an EQUS expands to another one, to help
track them.
This is done separately from the file stack as the EQUS stack is separate
(which is itself because EQUS are managed *way* differently).
Macro and rept buffers were not always being terminated with newlines
and/or were vulnerable to the final newline being escaped, allowing
buffer overflows to occur. Now, they are terminated with newlines using
the same mechanism as the file buffer.
Null characters in the middle of strings interact badly with the RGBDS
codebase, which assumes null-terminated strings. There is no reason to
support null characters in input source code, so the simplest way to deal
with null characters is to reject them early.
They do not take any room, so they can only be used to define symbols at
a given location. I ran into trouble with such a SECTION failing to be
placed where specified, which doesn't make sense.
This way, it also makes sense to have such a SECTION in the middle of
another one, but that should be fine, since there's no actual overlap.
f29d768 forgot to switch these two `expr->nVal` to `src1->nVal`
This won't break anything, since this wasn't published yet.
I checked, and didn't see any other missed changes.
Reported by pret, I confirmed that `1 && 1` evaluated to 0.
This is good for debugging Makefiles on systems I don't have (eg. macOS)
End users will not be affected by this, and CI provides a persistent log
so clobbering isn't much of an issue.
Some errors are only tripped in `out_WriteObject`, which was
basically a stub when `-o` wasn't specified. Now, instead,
errors are checked in a separate function before out_WriteFile
The old error stack was fairly obtuse and hard to use for debugging.
This improves it notably by ensuring all line numbers are relative
to the file, and not, say, the macro definition.
This is a breaking change if you were parsing the old stack, but
the change should be painless, and the new stack only brings more info.
The syntax is unchanged for files, macros see their name prefixed
with the file they're defined in and a pair of colors, REPT blocks
simply append a '::REPT~n' to the context they're in, where 'n' is
the number of iterations the REPT has done.
This is especially helpful in macro-heavy code such as rgbds-structs.
If a line ended with a string's closing quote, or a newline escape, then
skipping over that line via IF/ELIF/ELSE would fail to count that line,
offsetting the rest of the file.
I have no idea why but for some reason 9829be1 changed *specifically*
`if_skip_to_else` to have incorrect behavior on string endings. The incorrect
behavior on newline escapes seems to have been here since the beginning.
Also added a test to check for both of those behaviors in both functions.
Honestly, it baffles me that nobody ever noticed. I didn't until I started
working on #395.
Unlike macros, REPTs and INCLUDEs, this recursion depth is independent.
This is intentional, because string expansions work very differently.
While it's easy to know when a string expansion begins, checking where it
ends is much more complicated, since the expansion's contents are simply
injected back into the lex buffer. Therefore, the depth has to be checked
after lexing took place.
Because of this, the placement of the expansion end check is somewhat
haphazard, but I think it's good. While I have no certainty, all tests
ended with all expansions properly ended, and I couldn't find any pitfalls.
Finally, `pCurrentStringExpansion` has been made global so error printing
can use it to tell the user if an error occurred inside of an expansion.
