Re: [Jflex-devel] JFlex 1.6

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

I'm editing the manual, and when I read in the "How the Input is Matched"
section "When consuming its input, the scanner determines the regular
expression that matches the longest portion of the input (longest match
rule).", I wanted to add the following sentence: "Note that in %unicode
mode, input length is measured in code points, not in code units (Java
char) or in bytes." but I don't actually know if this is true.  Can you
point me to where I can verify this, or fix it if it's not so?

Thanks,
Steve

Cool, lots of progress.

I'm happy with pushing for the next release and the plan sounds good.

[Jflex-devel] JFlex 1.6

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

I'd like to plan for doing a JFlex 1.6 release soon.

I believe I've finished the supplementary character handling implementation
- input streams are now treated as code point sequences; all character
handling is now int-based; all the testsuite test cases pass; and all
supported Unicode properties now match above the BMP when Unicode 3+ is
specified.  I'd like to include these capabilities in a release.

Release checklist:

1. Modify the manual to mention supplementary character handling.
2. Remove deprecated functionality (table and switch options)
3. (Optional) Add \x{H+} and \x{H+ H+ ... } variable length Unicode
character (sequence) escape syntax, as described in UTS#18:
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Hex_notation.  The \Uyyyyyy (six hex
digits) syntax is available in JFlex and works, so we're technically
compliant, but I'd like to support this syntax too.

Anything else?

[Jflex-devel] Wiki permissions

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Somebody put a question on the front page of the JFlex wiki on
Sourceforge.  I responded there that they should repost on the jflex-users
mailing list.

I also modified the wiki permissions so that authenticated (non-admin,
non-developer, and non-member) people's posts are now subject to moderation.

[Jflex-devel] Issue #128: EndOfLineComment rule incorrect

[Régis D. <reg...@gm...>]

https://sourceforge.net/p/jflex/bugs/128/

Hello,

I think the reporter is correct, an end-of-line comment can be the last
line of a file and is not necessarily followed by a newline character:

The sample grammar file was correct, but not the manual.
I've update the manual in r820 https://sourceforge.net/p/jflex/code/820

I haven't changed LexScan.flex. I haven't seen empty lines appended to the
input file, but Jflex seems to generate grammars correctly, even if they
end with a // comment line

Hi Steve,

yes, I was going to suggest that as well. Let’s keep trunk the development and start a branch jflex_1_5 for bug fixes before 1.6 comes out.

Re: [Jflex-devel] Branching for 1.6

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Gerwin,

Actually, I prefer the model where trunk is the development version, and
maintenance branches are kept for older releases.  Would you be okay with
switching to this model?  If so, the branch to make would be branch_1.5 or
something like that.

[Jflex-devel] Branching for 1.6

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

Is it okay with you to start a branch for JFlex 1.6?  I'd like to explore
switching from char to int, to allow direct handling of chars above the
Unicode BMP.

Re: [Jflex-devel] SF.net SVN: jflex:[809] trunk

[Gerwin K. <Ger...@ni...>]

Hi Steve,

thanks for spotting that, I should have looked more carefully. Your version is much better.

The intention for pre-release.pl was to have it identify differently to the development snapshot versions, because in bug reports we’d get on the wrong track for these. But you’re right that it would be better not to self-identify as release version either.

How about replacing -SNAPSHOT with something else, maybe -SRC?

Cheers,
Gerwin

Re: [Jflex-devel] SF.net SVN: jflex:[809] trunk

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

I already put code in post-release.pl to change the versions in jflex/build.xml - see line #’s 156-163.  It’s more complicated than your change because a) there are other dependencies in there, and I wanted to be careful about targeting the version for the right one; and b) it also changes the bootstrap JFlex version.

(When you ran post-release.pl before these changes, did it not change the versions in jflex/build.xml?)

By contrast, in pre-release.pl, I intentionally did not add address jflex/build.xml, because unlike the Maven build, which is used to generate release artifacts, the Ant build is only for users, and users should be discouraged from building a version from source that self-identifies as a released version.

Turns out, this is easy to fix on MacOs (with a somewhat horrible hack), but there doesn’t seem to be a good solution for Linux (at least with the Ubuntu standard file chooser). I haven’t tried Windows.

The best way would be to implement that whole thing in Swing instead of AWT, but that would be a bigger job.

Yes, I don’t think it ever did anything graceful there. We should fix it for the next release.

I’ll have a look, haven’t touched that GUI code in eons. I can reproduce it on MacOs, but it’s possible that the same code behaves differently on Linux/Win (or not).

Yes, that’s a Java bug. I’d say we ignore it for now, it’s likely to be fixed in later Java releases.

Cool, will send it out then.

Re: [Jflex-devel] 1.5.1 release?

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

I’ve integrated JFlex 1.5.1 into the Lucene build.  In so doing I discovered a (longstanding, I assume) bug: 

1. JFlex auto-generates a class comment on the generated scanner when the user doesn’t supply one, but JFlex fails to detect a user-supplied class comment when class-level annotations intervene (e.g. @Deprecated), and so adds its own class comment.  I’ll make a tracker issue for this on SourceForge.


I also ran the cmdline bin/jflex script (no problems) and the GUI (on OS X Mavericks under Oracle JDK v1.7.0_51), and noticed two more bugs:

2. When I try to select an output directory by clicking on the “Browse” button next to the "Output directory:" input box,
the only way to actually select a directory is to select a *file* in the target directory - the Open button just changes the dialog to display the *contents* of the selected directory.  Is this fixable / worth fixing?

3. When I click on the Options button after moving the main window from the builtin Retina display on my Macbook Pro to the Mini-DisplayPort-attached external display, everything above the radio buttons and check boxes is invisible; as soon as I click on one of the checkboxes, the skeleton file input box, Browse button, and Ok and Defaults buttons appear.  I can reproduce this about 50% of the time, though different subsets of UI elements are invisible sometimes.  I’m assuming this is a Java or OS X bug rather than a JFlex bug.


I think none of these bugs should block announcement of JFlex 1.5.1.

Cool, thanks!

I’ll upgrade the Lucene build to JFlex 1.5.1 and report back how that goes.

I’ve now pushed the release out.

Went way too smoothly this time ;-) Can you check if things are working for you before we announce more widely?

I think we’re good to go. I was going to make a new website, but let’s defer that.

Will be on a plane for about 24h, but should be able to do the release on Tue/Wed central European time.

[Jflex-devel] 1.5.1 release?

[Steve R. <sa...@gm...>]

Hi Gerwin,

Is there anything you'd like to get done before putting out a 1.5.1 release?

I've done some cleanup on the manual, and committed a parallel Ant build
for the jflex/ directory, including 'ant test' to run the unit tests under
JUnit.
