We start off with the LR(0) state set together with corresponding (shift and goto) transitions already computed. We compute the LALR(1) lookahead sets for kernel items and also record all corresponding reduce actions in the reduction table (where we also have to consider nonkernel items with empty right-hand side; these items also call for a reduction, but never appear in the kernel item table). This implementation uses some simple optimizations to speed up the algorithm. The lookahead sets are represented by (IntSet) pointers. Lookahead sets are associated with each kernel item in the item table, and with each reduction in the reduction table. A kernel item calling for a reduction shares its lookahead set pointer with the corresponding entry in the reduction table. The lookahead set for a nonkernel reduction item (item with empty right-hand side) only appears in the reduction table. The algorithm consists of two phases: 1. Initialization: The initialization phase consists of a single traversal of the LR(0) set, where we compute lookahead sets generated spontaneously (lookaheads which are passed on from nonkernel items to the corresponding items in successor states), initialize lookahead sets and enter them into the lookahead and reduction table. Furthermore, during the initialization phase we also initialize the links for the propagation of lookaheads in the second phase. To determine lookaheads and propagation links, we compute the look- aheads for the closures of single LR(0) sets "in the small", according to the method in Aho/Sethi/Ullman 1986 (with some modifications), where we associate with each kernel item i a corresponding endmarker symbol #i as its lookahead symbol. The initialization phase proceeds as follows: 1) Initialize all nonkernel item lookahead sets to empty. Now we pass over each state s in the LR0 set, repeating steps 2) thru 5) specified below: 2) Compute the closure closure(K(s)) of the states's kernel set K(s). 3) Compute the lookahead sets for closure(K(s)) (described in detail below) where each kernel item i is associated with a special endmarker symbol #i as lookahead. Now the lookahead symbols, reductions and propagation links are entered into the corresponding tables as follows: 4) Process kernel items: Add a propagation link from the kernel item to the lookahead set of the linked item in the corresponding successor state (as specified by the next field). If there is no successor item (kernel item calling for a reduction), add a corresponding entry into the reduction table instead. 5) Process nonkernel items: find the corresponding kernel item in the successor state which is generated spontaneously from the nonkernel item. Add the spontaneous lookahead symbols (except endmarker symbols) of the nonkernel item determined in step 3) to the kernel item. If the nonkernel item has an empty right-hand side (nonkernel item calling for a reduction), add a corresponding entry into the reduction table instead. Furthermore, for each endmarker symbol #i in the spontaneous lookahead set of the nonkernel item, add a corresponding propagation link from the ith kernel item to the lookahead set of the spontaneous kernel item. To compute the spontaneous lookaheads (step 3)), we proceed as follows: 3a) First compute the first sets of tail strings of all items in closure(K(s)). The "tail string" of an item [ X -> v.Yw ], where Y is a nonterminal, is the symbol sequence w, whose first set induces corresponding spontaneous lookaheads in the nonkernel items of the state with left-hand side Y; note that the first sets of "tail strings" in items [ X -> v.yw ], where y is a *terminal* symbol, are not required and hence it is not necessary to compute them. We also record for each item whether its tail string is "nullable", i.e., may be derived to the empty string. In this case, the item also passes on its own lookaheads, in addition to the first symbols of its tail string. First sets and nullable flags are computed using the information in YaccTable's first and nullable tables. 3b) Now follows an initialization part in which each item [ X -> v.Yw ] passes on the first symbols of its tail string to the lookahead sets of each corresponding nonkernel item [ Y -> .u ]. 3c) Finally, we repeatedly pass over the item set, passing on lookaheads from items with nullable tail strings. Each item [ X -> v.Yw ] with nullable w propagates its own lookaheads to all corresponding nonkernel items [ Y -> .u]. Step 3c) terminates as soon as no lookahead sets have been modified during the previous pass. 2. Propagation: The second phase of the lookahead computation algorithm now is quite simple. We repeatedly pass over all kernel items, propagating lookaheads according to the propagation links determined in the initialization phase. The algorithm terminates as soon as no lookahead sets have been modified during the previous pass. *) (* Data structures used in lookahead computation: *) type SymSetArray = array [1..max_set_items] of IntSet; BoolArray = array [1..max_set_items] of Boolean; var item_set : ItemSet; lookahead_set : SymSetArray; n_kernel_items : Integer; procedure spontaneous_lookaheads; (* compute spontaneous lookaheads for item_set; negative symbols are used for endmarkers (-i denotes endmarker #i) *) var count, last_count, i : Integer; first_syms : SymSetArray; nullable : BoolArray; function sym_count ( n : Integer ) : Integer; (* count lookahead symbols *) var count, i : Integer; begin count := 0; for i := 1 to n do inc(count, size(lookahead_set[i])); sym_count := count; end(*sym_count*); procedure compute_first_syms ( i : Integer ); (* compute first set and nullable flag for tail string of item number i *) var j : Integer; begin empty(first_syms[i]); nullable[i] := true; with item_set, item[i], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if (pos_no<=rhs_len) and (rhs_sym[pos_no]<0) then begin j := pos_no+1; while (j<=rhs_len) and nullable[i] do begin if rhs_sym[j]<0 then begin setunion(first_syms[i], first_set_table^[-rhs_sym[j]]^); nullable[i] := YaccTabl.nullable^[-rhs_sym[j]]; end else begin include(first_syms[i], rhs_sym[j]); nullable[i] := false; end; inc(j); end; end; end(*compute_first_syms*); procedure init_lookaheads ( i : Integer ); (* compute initial lookaheads induced by first sets of tail string of item i *) var sym, j : Integer; begin with item_set, item[i], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if (pos_no<=rhs_len) and (rhs_sym[pos_no]<0) then begin sym := rhs_sym[pos_no]; for j := n_kernel_items+1 to n_items do with item[j], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if lhs_sym=sym then setunion(lookahead_set[j], first_syms[i]); end end(*initial_lookaheads*); procedure propagate ( i : Integer ); (* propagate lookahead symbols of item i *) var sym, j : Integer; begin with item_set, item[i], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if (pos_no<=rhs_len) and (rhs_sym[pos_no]<0) and nullable[i] then begin sym := rhs_sym[pos_no]; for j := n_kernel_items+1 to n_items do with item[j], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if lhs_sym=sym then setunion(lookahead_set[j], lookahead_set[i]); end end(*propagate*); begin(*spontaneous_lookaheads*) with item_set do begin (* initialize kernel lookahead sets: *) for i := 1 to n_kernel_items do singleton(lookahead_set[i], -i); (* compute first sets and nullable flags: *) for i := 1 to n_items do compute_first_syms(i); (* initialize nonkernel lookahead sets: *) for i := n_kernel_items+1 to n_items do empty(lookahead_set[i]); for i := 1 to n_items do init_lookaheads(i); (* repeated passes until no more lookaheads have been added during the previous pass: *) count := sym_count(n_items); repeat last_count := count; for i := 1 to n_items do propagate(i); count := sym_count(n_items); until last_count=count; end; end(*spontaneous_lookaheads*); {$ifndef fpc}{$F+}{$endif} function redns_less ( i, j : Integer ) : Boolean; {$ifndef fpc}{$F-}{$endif} begin redns_less := redn_table^[i].rule_no0 then (* add propagation link: *) add_prop(item_lo+i-1, lookahead_table^[next]) else (* enter reduce action: *) add_redn(lookahead_table^[item_lo+i-1], rule_no); (* process nonkernel items: *) (* find successor items: *) for k := trans_lo to trans_hi do with trans_table^[k] do for i := n_kernel_items+1 to n_items do with item[i], rule_table^[rule_no]^ do if pos_no>rhs_len then next := 0 else if rhs_sym[pos_no]=sym then next := find_item(next_state, rule_no, pos_no+1); (* add spontaneous lookaheads and propagation links: *) for i := n_kernel_items+1 to n_items do with item[i] do if next>0 then (* lookaheads are generated spontaneously for successor item: *) for j := 1 to size(lookahead_set[i]) do if lookahead_set[i][j]>=0 then include(lookahead_table^[next]^, lookahead_set[i][j]) else add_prop(item_lo+(-lookahead_set[i][j])-1, lookahead_table^[next]) else (* nonkernel reduction item: *) begin lookaheads := newEmptyIntSet; for j := 1 to size(lookahead_set[i]) do if lookahead_set[i][j]>=0 then include(lookaheads^, lookahead_set[i][j]) else add_prop(item_lo+(-lookahead_set[i][j])-1, lookaheads); add_redn(lookaheads, rule_no); end; end_redns; sort_redns; end; inc(act_state); until act_state=n_states; end(*initialize*); procedure propagate; (* propagation phase of lookahead computation algorithm *) var i, l : Integer; done : Boolean; prop : PropList; begin (* repeated passes over the kernel items table until no more lookaheads could be added in the previous pass: *) repeat done := true; for i := 1 to n_items do begin prop := prop_table^[i]; while prop<>nil do with prop^ do begin l := size(symset^); setunion(symset^, lookahead_table^[i]^); if size(symset^)>l then done := false; prop := next; end; end; until done; end(*propagate*); procedure lookaheads; begin initialize; propagate; end(*lookaheads*); end(*YaccLookaheads*).
