// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// All CDL data is read via a Tcl interpreter, so the parsing is done by
// procedures that appear as Tcl commands. This has obvious advantages in
// terms of expressive power, but does result in a little bit of confusion
// when producing diagnostics.
//
// Errors should not bypass the Tcl interpreter, to ensure that that
// stays in a consistent state. In particular it is not possible to let
// arbitrary C++ exceptions to go straight through the Tcl interpreter,
// this is likely to result in a corrupted interpreter.
// 
// Also, it is not a good idea to abort parsing as soon as anything
// goes wrong. Instead there should be an error handling callback associated
// with the interpreter, which can be used to report errors. This
// callback may choose to raise an exception.
//
// Consider the case of parsing a property (which accounts for most of
// the code in this module). A property does not exist in isolation,
// only within the context of a suitable CDL entity such as an option.
// If parsing succeeds and a property object is created then it must
// be added to the current CDL entity.
//
// Therefore a typical parse routine looks like this:
//
//  1) get the current CDL node from the interpreter
//  2) do basic parsing of the data. Any errors should be reported
//     via the callback.
//  3) create a suitable CdlProperty object
//  4) add the property to the current entity
//
// std::bad_alloc and CdlStringException exceptions can be thrown, they
// will be intercepted by the CdlInterpreter class.

// Option parsing.
//
// Some properties accept modifiers in their argument list. For example,
// by default a "compile" property is just a list of source files that
// should be compiled and added to the current library. It is possible
// to specify an alternative library via a modifier:
//
//    ...
//    compile -library=libextras.a dummy.cxx
//    ...
//
// The rules applied for such options are intended to follow common Tcl
// practice:
//
// 1) any initial arguments beginning with a - are assumed to be
//    options.
//
// 2) the first argument which does not begin with a - stops option
//    processing.
//
// 3) option processing can also be terminated with a -- argument.
//    This may occasionally be required, e.g. to have -ve constants
//    in an expression.
//
// 4) the parsing code does not distinguish between single and double
//    hyphens. If there happens to be a second - in an option then this
//    is just ignored.
//
// 5) it is not necessary to supply the whole option name, as long as
//    what is provided is unambiguous. For example -lib=libextras.a is
//    acceptable (for now anyway, conceivably it would break in future).
//    Option processing is case sensitive.
//
// 6) name/value pairs can take the form -name=value or the form
//    -name value, whichever is appropriate.
//
// The parse_options() function takes the current interpreter (so that
// it can generate diagnostics), a prefix such as `property
// "requires"' or `package CYGPKG_HAL', details of the options to be
// parsed, an argc/argv list, an index, and a reference to a vector.
// The parsed options get placed in the vector, and the index argument
// gets updated to point at the first non-option argument. It will
// report problems via report_warning().
//
// The options description consists of a pointer to an array of
// C strings (allowing static initialization). Passing a zero
// argument indicates that the property takes no options. Otherwise
// the array should be zero terminated.
//
// Each entry in the array takes the form "name:flags". The optional
// flags consist of zero or more characters indicating how the option
// should be interpreted. Valid flags are:
//
// f    - this option takes no data, it is just a boolean flag. The
//        default behaviour assumes name/value pairs.
//
// m    - this option can occur multiple times. The default behaviour
//        is that each option can only occur once.

//{{{  Diagnostic construction                  
 
// Construct a suitable diagnostic for a parsing error. This may occur
// when reading in a CDL script, a savefile, a database, or anything
// similar. 
//
// A diagnostic should take the following form:
//
//     <context> <linenumber> [, <node identifier>] [, <extra identifier>] : [<classification>, ] <message>
//
// The context should be set in the Tcl interpreter. Typically it
// will be a filename.
//
// In practice generating the line number is not really feasible at
// present, the Tcl interpreter does not keep track of sufficient
// information. At least, not in the public data structures, there is
// a termOffset field in the internal data structures which might
// be used to do the right thing. I do not want to start relying
// on Tcl internals just yet, or add support to the Tcl core for
// keeping track of line numbers.
//
// For many data files there will the concept of a current node,
// e.g. an option whose properties or savefile information are
// being processed. The CdlInterpreter class keeps track of the
// current node, so if it is defined then the node's class and
// name can be part of the message. This happens automatically,
// no effort is required on the part of calling code.
//
// There may also be additional information, for example
// identifying the specific property where the error was detected.
// This is handled by an extra argument.
//
// The classification is likely to be something like "warning",
// "error", or "internal error". It is controlled by the calling
// code, but typically it is provided by calling via report_warning()
// etc.
//
// The message should identify the actual error. It should be
// a proper sentence, i.e. begin with a capital error and end with
// a full stop, unless the last word is an identifier or filename
// or something similarly special in which case the trailing
// dot will be discarded. The message should not end with a
// newline character, and the result string will not end with one
// either. That is left to higher level code.

// If the Tcl script is invalid then parsing errors may get reported
// at the higher level code as well.
//
// There are two classes of diagnostic: errors and warnings.
// Additional levels may be added in future, but there does not seem
// to be an urgent need for them. Client code should provide callback
// functions so that the messages can be displayed to the user, and
// these callbacks will be registered with the current CdlInterpreter.
//
// If no error callback is defined then a ParseException will be
// raised instead, and the rest of the current script will not be
// processed. Alternatively the error callback itself can raise a
// ParseException. Care is taken to ensure that the exception does not
// go straight through the Tcl interpreter, since that would prevent
// the Tcl code from cleaning up appropriately. If no exception is
// raised then the library keeps track of the number of errors, and
// this information is accessible once the script has been fully
// processed. This allows multiple errors to be reported in a single
// run.
//
// If no warning callback is provided then warnings are ignored.
