Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided.

The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script.

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions).

When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided.

The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4.

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant.

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|.

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant.

Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.) Final Note ---------- This is just a beginning! The new code generator lays a foundation upon which many optimizations and improvements can (and will) be made. Stay tuned :-)

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast.

Rewrite variable handling in generated parsers Before this commit, variables for saving match results and parse positions in generated parsers were not used efficiently. Each rule basically used its own variable(s) for storing the data, with names generated sequentially during code emitting. There was no reuse of variables and a lot of unnecessary assignments between them. It is easy to see that both match results and parse positions can actually be stored on a stack that grows as the parser walks deeper in the grammar tree and shrinks as it returns. Moreover, if one creates a new stack for each rule the parser enters, its maximum depth can be computed statically from the grammar. This allows us to implement the stack not as an array, but as a set of numbered variables in each function that handles parsing of a grammar rule, avoiding potentially slow array accesses. This commit implements the idea from the previous paragraph, using separate stack for match results and for parse positions. As a result, defined variables are reused and unnecessary copying avoided. Speed implications ------------------ This change speeds up the benchmark suite execution by 2.14%.

Code generator rewrite This is a complete rewrite of the PEG.js code generator. Its goals are: 1. Allow optimizing the generated parser code for code size as well as for parsing speed. 2. Prepare ground for future optimizations and big features (like incremental parsing). 2. Replace the old template-based code-generation system with something more lightweight and flexible. 4. General code cleanup (structure, style, variable names, ...). New Architecture ---------------- The new code generator consists of two steps: * Bytecode generator -- produces bytecode for an abstract virtual machine * JavaScript generator -- produces JavaScript code based on the bytecode The abstract virtual machine is stack-based. Originally I wanted to make it register-based, but it turned out that all the code related to it would be more complex and the bytecode itself would be longer (because of explicit register specifications in instructions). The only downsides of the stack-based approach seem to be few small inefficiencies (see e.g. the |NIP| instruction), which seem to be insignificant. The new generator allows optimizing for parsing speed or code size (you can choose using the |optimize| option of the |PEG.buildParser| method or the --optimize/-o option on the command-line). When optimizing for size, the JavaScript generator emits the bytecode together with its constant table and a generic bytecode interpreter. Because the interpreter is small and the bytecode and constant table grow only slowly with size of the grammar, the resulting parser is also small. When optimizing for speed, the JavaScript generator just compiles the bytecode into JavaScript. The generated code is relatively efficient, so the resulting parser is fast. Internal Identifiers -------------------- As a small bonus, all internal identifiers visible to user code in the initializer, actions and predicates are prefixed by |peg$|. This lowers the chance that identifiers in user code will conflict with the ones from PEG.js. It also makes using any internals in user code ugly, which is a good thing. This solves GH-92. Performance ----------- The new code generator improved parsing speed and parser code size significantly. The generated parsers are now: * 39% faster when optimizing for speed * 69% smaller when optimizing for size (without minification) * 31% smaller when optimizing for size (with minification) (Parsing speed was measured using the |benchmark/run| script. Code size was measured by generating parsers for examples in the |examples| directory and adding up the file sizes. Minification was done by |uglify --ascii| in version 1.3.4.)
