2015-09-28Preliminary new shell feature: cc -trace.hallgren
You can now do things like cc -trace mkV "debug" to see a trace of all opers with their arguments and results during the computation of mkV "debug".
2015-08-10gf -cshell: preliminary support for the C run-time system in the GF shellhallgren
Some C run-time functionality is now available in the GF shell, by starting GF with 'gf -cshell' or 'gf -crun'. Only limited functionality is available when running the shell in these modes: - You can only import .pgf files, not source files. - The -retain flag can not be used and the commands that require it to work are not available. - Only 18 of the 40 commands available in the usual shell have been implemented. The 'linearize' and 'parse' commands are the only ones that call the C run-time system, and they support only a limited set of options and flags. Use the 'help' commmands for details. - A new command 'generate_all', that calls PGF2.generateAll, has been added. Unfortuntaly, using it causes 'segmentation fault'. This is implemented by adding two new modules: GF.Command.Commands2 and GF.Interactive2. They are copied and modified versions of GF.Command.Commands and GF.Interactive, respectively. Code for unimplemented commands and other code that has not been adapted to the C run-time system has been left in place, but commented out, pending further work.

2015-02-09Translating linearization functions to Haskell: support for variantshallgren
By adding the flag -haskell=variants to the command line, GF will now generate linearization functions in Haskell that support variants. Variants are represented as lists in Haskell. Variants inside pre { ... } expressions are still ignored. TODO: apply some monad laws to generate more compact code (using an intermediate representation of the generated Haskell code, instead of pretty printing directly from the GF code).
2014-12-11Work in progress on translating linearization functions to Haskellhallgren
The translation is currently good enough to translate all concrete syntaxes of the Foods and Letter grammars, and some concrete syntaxes of the Phrasebook grammar (e.g. PhrasebookEng & PhrasebookSpa works, but there are problems with e.g. PhrasebookSwe and PhrasebookChi) This functionality is enabled by running gf -make -output-format=haskell -haskell=concrete ... TODO: - variants - pre { ... } - eta expansion of linearization functions - record subtyping can still cause type errors in the Haskell code in some cases - reduce code large tables

2014-10-08GF.Infra.Options: change from String to Int in the type of optJobshallgren
2014-08-25Experimental: parallel batch compilation of grammarshallgren
On my laptop these changes speed up the full build of the RGL and example grammars with 'cabal build' from ~95s to ~43s and the zero build from ~18s to ~5s. The main change is the introduction of the module GF.CompileInParallel that replaces GF.Compile and the function GF.Compile.ReadFiles.getAllFiles. At present, it is activated with the new -j flag, and it is only used when combined with --make or --batch. In addition, to get parallel computations, you need to add GHC run-time flags, e.g., +RTS -N -A20M -RTS, to the command line. The Setup.hs script has been modified to pass the appropriate flags to GF for parallel compilation when compiling the RGL and example grammars, but you need a recent version of Cabal for this to work (probably >=1.20). Some additonal refactoring were made during this work. A new monad is used to avoid warnings/error messages from different modules to be intertwined when compiling in parallel, so some functios that were hardiwred to the IO or IOE monads have been lifted to work in arbitrary monads that are instances in the appropriate classes.
2014-06-24minibar: include the grammar's last modification in the grammar info shown ↵hallgren
by the "i" button Also bumped version number in gf.cabal to 3.6-darcs. Also removed some unecessary use of CPP.
2014-06-12PGF library: expose only PGF and PGF.Internal instead of all moduleshallgren
PGF exports the public, stable API. PGF.Internal exports additional things needed in the GF compiler & shell, including the nonstardard version of Data.Binary.
2013-12-10option --split-pgf replaces option --mk-index. This splits the PGF into one ↵kr.angelov
file for the abstract and one more for each concrete syntax. This is a preparation for being able to load only specific languages from the whole grammar.
2013-11-29Commment code and options relating to the old partial evaluatorhallgren
This means that the -old-comp and -new-comp flags are not recognized anymore. The only functional difference is that printnames were still normalized with the old partial evaluator. Now that is done with the new partial evaluator.
2013-11-25Change how GF deals with character encodings in grammar fileshallgren
1. The default encoding is changed from Latin-1 to UTF-8. 2. Alternate encodings should be specified as "--# -coding=enc", the old "flags coding=enc" declarations have no effect but are still checked for consistency. 3. A transitional warning is generated for files that contain non-ASCII characters without specifying a character encoding: "Warning: default encoding has changed from Latin-1 to UTF-8" 4. Conversion to Unicode is now done *before* lexing. This makes it possible to allow arbitrary Unicode characters in identifiers. But identifiers are still stored as ByteStrings, so they are limited to Latin-1 characters for now. 5. Lexer.hs is no longer part of the repository. We now generate the lexer from Lexer.x with alex>=3. Some workarounds for bugs in alex-3.0 were needed. These bugs might already be fixed in newer versions of alex, but we should be compatible with what is shipped in the Haskell Platform.
2013-11-21Some more monadic lifting changeshallgren
2013-11-06the content of ParseEngAbs3.probs is now merged with ParseEngAbs.probs. The ↵kr.angelov
later is now retrained. Once the grammar is compiled with the .probs file now it doesn't need anything more to do robust parsing. The robustness itself is controlled by the flags 'heuristic_search_factor', 'meta_prob' and 'meta_token_prob' in ParseEngAbs.gf
2013-11-05Eliminate mutual dependencies between the GF compiler and the PGF libraryhallgren
+ References to modules under src/compiler have been eliminated from the PGF library (under src/runtime/haskell). Only two functions had to be moved (from GF.Data.Utilities to PGF.Utilities) to make this possible, other apparent dependencies turned out to be vacuous. + In gf.cabal, the GF executable no longer directly depends on the PGF library source directory, but only on the exposed library modules. This means that there is less duplication in gf.cabal and that the 30 modules in the PGF library will no longer be compiled twice while building GF. To make this possible, additional PGF library modules have been exposed, even though they should probably be considered for internal use only. They could be collected in a PGF.Internal module, or marked as "unstable", to make this explicit. + Also, by using the -fwarn-unused-imports flag, ~220 redundant imports were found and removed, reducing the total number of imports by ~15%.
2013-09-19Make Ident abstract; imports of Data.ByteString.Char8 down from 29 to 16 moduleshallgren
Most of the explicit uses of ByteStrings were eliminated by using identS, identS = identC . BS.pack which was found in GF.Grammar.CF and moved to GF.Infra.Ident. The function prefixIdent :: String -> Ident -> Ident allowed one additional import of ByteString to be eliminated. The functions isArgIdent :: Ident -> Bool getArgIndex :: Ident -> Maybe Int were needed to eliminate explicit pattern matching on Ident from two modules.
2013-06-10Update the usage text for the --output-format optionhallgren
It needs to be updated manually when the list of available output format changes.
2013-02-12now the beam size for the statistical parser can be configured by using the ↵kr.angelov

2012-11-14GF usage message fixeshallgren
Change the command name from gfc to gf in the usage message header. Correct spelling of "overide" to "override" in -gf-lib-path description.
2012-11-13Adding a new experimental partial evalutatorhallgren
GF.Compile.Compute.ConcreteNew + two new modules contain a new partial evaluator intended to solve some performance problems with the old partial evalutator in GF.Compile.Compute.ConcreteLazy. It has been around for a while, but is now complete enough to compile the RGL and the Phrasebook. The old partial evaluator is still used by default. The new one can be activated in two ways: - by using the command line option -new-comp when invoking GF. - by using cabal configure -fnew-comp to make -new-comp the default. In this case you can also use the command line option -old-comp to revert to the old partial evaluator. In the GF shell, the cc command uses the old evaluator regardless of -new-comp for now, but you can use "cc -new ..." to invoke the new evaluator. With -new-comp, computations happen in GF.Compile.GeneratePMCFG instead of GF.Compile.Optimize. This is implemented by testing the flag optNewComp in both modules, to omit calls to the old partial evaluator from GF.Compile.Optimize and add calls to the new partial evaluator in GF.Compile.GeneratePMCFG. This also means that -new-comp effectively implies -noexpand. In GF.Compile.CheckGrammar, there is a check that restricted inheritance is used correctly. However, when -noexpand is used, this check causes unexpected errors, so it has been converted to generate warnings, for now. -new-comp no longer enables the new type checker in GF.Compile.Typeckeck.ConcreteNew. The GF version number has been bumped to 3.3.10-darcs
2012-10-19Refactor compileSourceModulehallgren
There was 55 lines of rather repetitive code with calls to 6 compiler passes. They have been replaced with 19 lines that call the 6 compiler passes plus 26 lines of helper functions.

2011-09-09Don't make noexpand the default with -fcclazyhallgren
This reverts the previous change. Not preprocessing opers turns out to make a difference in what needs to be mentioned in restricted inheritance/imports.
2011-09-09Make noexpand the default optimization package when configuring with -fcclazyhallgren
2011-04-13Added a preliminary "gf -server" mode.hallgren
The command "gf -server" now starts a simple HTTP server on port 41295, providing a simple web API to the GF compiler. It currently support the follwing operations: * creating new temporary directories for grammar uploads, * uploading grammars files for use in the GF shell, * executing GF shell commands, and * accessing static files. This means that GF now depends on some additional networking related packages, but they should be available and easy to install on all platforms. There is also a new configuration flag "server" in gf.cabal, so GF will be compiled without support for server mode if the extra packages are unavailable. Note that running gf -server while connected to the internet can be a security risk. To prevent unauthorized access to the rest of the system, it is advisable to run the server in GF_RESTRICTED mode and as a user with suitably restricted file permissions.
