loadConcr, unloadConcr and addLiteral modify the Concr structure as a side
effect. This means that other functions with a Concr argument (e.g. parse
and linearize) are no longer pure.
Possible solutions:
1. Don't try to hide the imperative nature of the C run-time system: remove
all uses of unsafePerformIO and let all functions operate in the IO monad.
2. Don't export functions with side effects. Perhaps the desired functionality
of loadConcr, unloadConcr and addLiteral can be folded into readPGF.
The Concr structures can then treaded as immutable after after the
readPGF function returns...
The def rules are now compiled to byte code by the compiler and then to
native code by the JIT compiler in the runtime. Not all constructions
are implemented yet. The partial implementation is now in the repository
but it is not activated by default since this requires changes in the
PGF format. I will enable it only after it is complete.
When using full=yes in the web service 'complete' command,
you now get an additional field 'seq' with the longest possible completion.
So, given:
lin
f1 = ss "the" ;
f2 = ss ("the red house" | "the real deal") ;
and trying to complete on input "th", you get:
[
{
"from": "TestCnc",
"brackets": {
"cat": "_",
"fid": 0,
"index": 0,
"fun": "_",
"children": []
},
"text": "th",
"completions": [
{
"token": "the",
"funs": [
{
"fun": "f1",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the"
},
{
"fun": "f2",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the red house"
},
{
"fun": "f2",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the real deal"
}
]
}
]
}
]
The configuration script takes significantly longer to run than the compilation
of all the C code, which is a hint that is in need of a major simplification.
PGF exports the public, stable API.
PGF.Internal exports additional things needed in the GF compiler & shell,
including the nonstardard version of Data.Binary.
From the documentation: the throwIO variant should be used in preference to
throw to raise an exception within the IO monad because it guarantees ordering
with respect to other IO operations, whereas throw does not.
Also removed some unused imports.
1. Like pgf-translate, it now shows one result at a time, press Enter to get
more results.
2. You can load a new grammar with the command 'i <path-to-pgf>'
