New Features of Eli Version 4.5
The front-end of the Liga attribute evaluator generator has been
re-implemented. The main changes are:
-
Old-style terminal attribution which had already been marked "outdated"
in the previous Eli versions has now been disabled.
This means that specifications like
ATTR c: int;
RULE p: R ::= X COMPUTE
R.c = X.c;
END;
where X is a terminal symbol now lead to an error message:
"ERROR: ERROR: A terminal has no attributes"
-
The key word NONTERM is no longer supported. It should be replaced by SYMBOL.
-
Improved error messages, e.g.
"ERROR: Symbol does neither occur in syntax nor in symbol attribution"
becomes
"ERROR: Symbol does not occur in rule or definition: IddDefScope"
-
New protocol feature of the new liga frontend.
This protocol provides information about
the compound liga input specification:
- tree and class symbols, their attributes and their inheritance relation
- rule attributes
- remote access constructs INCLUDING, CONSTITUENT, and CONSTITUENTS
- inheritance of computations
