The old "find symbol with auto scope" function is now three:
- One finds the exact name passed to it, skipping any checks
This is useful e.g. if such checks were already performed.
- One checks that the name is not scoped, and calls the first.
This is useful for names that cannot be scoped, such as checking for EQUS.
Doing this instead of the third should improve performance somehwat, since
this specific case is hit by the lexer each time an identifier is read.
- The last one checks if the name should be expanded (`.loc` → `Glob.loc`),
and that the local part is not scoped. This is essentially the old function.
Add keywords and identifiers
Add comments
Add number literals
Add strings
Add a lot of new tokens
Add (and clean up) IF etc.
Improve reporting of unexpected chars / garbage bytes
Fix bug with and improved error messages when failing to open file
Add verbose-level messages about how files are opened
Enforce that files finish with a newline
Fix chars returned not being cast to unsigned char (may conflict w/ EOF)
Return null path when no file is open, rather than crash
Unify and improve error printing slightly
Known to be missing: macro expansion, REPT blocks, EQUS expansions
Create a new file, platform.h, for platform-specific hacks
for MSVC, this includes defining strncasecmp to _stricmp and
strdup to _strdup, among other things like defining missing
stat macros
Change some things not supported in MSVC, like _Static_assert,
to their counterparts (in this case, static_assert)
Replace usage of VLAs with malloc and free
Update getopt_long and use the getopt implementation from musl
on Windows.
Use comments to show which functions from platform.h are being used
This should help make RGBDS portable to systems with 16-bit integers,
like DOS.
For kicks, use the macros for 16-bit and 8-bit integers.
Fix other miscellaneous things, like #include ordering and other
printf-format related things.
Reduce repitition in math.c while I'm there.
This should significantly improve performance: on pokecrystal builds, perf
reported as much CPU time spent on `yyparse` as on `sym_UseNewMacroArgs`
Measurements show ~6 seconds of improvement on that codebase.
This also fixes#321, as a bonus, due to saner management!
This option allows for automatic dependency detection and generation:
as soon as a missing file is found, it is output to the dep file, and
assembly immediately aborts. (No .o file is produced, even if `-o` was
speicified.) This doesn't cause an error, either; the point is that once
the file is added to the dep file, the Makefile is re-parsed, and this
time the file will be generated, so the dep list builds up automatically.
This mimicks GCC's option and behavior.
Allows overriding the output file in dependencies, which also allows
outputting those without also outputting the object file.
This, again, mimicks GCC's option.
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).
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.
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.
