Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Expression() [1/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( )

Builds an empty expression.

No operation can be used on an empty expression, it can only be assigned to

◆ Expression() [2/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( const Expression expr)

Copies an expression.

Parameters
[in]exprthe expression to copy

◆ Expression() [3/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( Expression &&  expr)

Moves an expression.

Parameters
[in]exprthe expression to move

◆ Expression() [4/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( const char *  expr)

Builds (i.e.

parse) an expression from a string

The grammar of an expression is as follow:

/* parsing as a REFERENCE is preferred over OPERATION
parsing as an OPERATION is preferred over STRING_LITERAL
*/
EXPRESSION := REFERENCE | OPERATION | STRING_LITERAL
STRING_LITERAL := ( CHAR | '\' '\' | '\' '$'
| REFERENCE
| '$' '(' OPERATION ')'
)*
/* The operator descending precedence order is:
1. *, /, %: multiplication, division and modulo,
2. +, -: addition and subtraction,
3. <, >: less than and greater than,
4. =: equality,
5. &: logical AND,
6. |: logical OR.
*/
OPERATION := TERM ( OPERATOR TERM )*
TERM := ( INT_LITERAL | REFERENCE | '(' OPERATION ')' )
REFERENCE := '$' ( IREFERENCE | '{' IREFERENCE '}' )
IREFERENCE := ID ( '[' OPERATION ']' | '.' ID )*
INT_LITERAL ~= (0x)? [0-9]+ ( \. )
ID ~= [a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*
CHAR ~= [^$\\]
OPERATOR ~= [|&=<>+\-\*/%]
Parameters
[in]exprthe string to parse

◆ Expression() [5/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( const std::string &  expr)

Builds (i.e.

parse) an expression from a string

The grammar of an expression is as follow:

/* parsing as a REFERENCE is preferred over OPERATION
parsing as an OPERATION is preferred over STRING_LITERAL
*/
EXPRESSION := REFERENCE | OPERATION | STRING_LITERAL
STRING_LITERAL := ( CHAR | '\' '\' | '\' '$'
| REFERENCE
| '$' '(' OPERATION ')'

CHAR ~= [^$\\]
OPERATOR ~= [|&=<>+\-\*/%]
Parameters
[in]exprthe string to parse

◆ Expression() [6/8]

◆ Expression() [8/8]

PDI::Expression::Expression ( PC_tree_t  expr)

Builds an expression that is parsed from PC_tree_t.

Parameters
[in]exprthe PC_tree_t value

◆ ~Expression()

PDI::Expression::~Expression ( )

Destroys an expression.
