Using the + operator in boost::spirit: char cast error? - c++

In boost::spirit, I am trying to use the +(...) syntax to match one or more strings, like here:
#include <boost/config/warning_disable.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
namespace client
{
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace ascii = boost::spirit::ascii;
template <typename Iterator>
bool parse(Iterator first, Iterator last)
{
using qi::char_;
qi::rule< Iterator, std::string(), ascii::space_type > text;
qi::rule< Iterator, std::string() > myword;
text = '"' >> +( myword ) >> '"'; // ERROR!
myword = +char_;
bool r = qi::phrase_parse(first, last, text, ascii::space);
if (first != last)
return false;
return r;
}
}
But I'm getting the following error:
foo.cpp:20: instantiated from 'bool client::parse
boost/spirit/home/qi/detail/assign_to.hpp:109: error: \
invalid static_cast from type \
'const std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >' \
to type 'char'
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Your code compiles just fine with Boost V1.47 (Spirit V2.5). In this version of Spirit the attribute handling has been completely rewritten which fixes this issue (and a lot of other issues).

Spirit grammar won't compile: function template argument error?

Compiling this simple Spirit grammar results in what seems to be a single error (despite the huge error message), possibly having to do with my skipper or some other template parameter that I have mistakenly used.
I experimented with a variety of attribute definitions for the grammar and the start rule, but it had no effect on the error.
#include <string>
#include "/usr/local/boost/include/boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp"
#include "/usr/local/boost/include/boost/spirit/include/qi_symbols.hpp"
using std::string;
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace ascii = boost::spirit::ascii;
boost::spirit::qi::rule<string::const_iterator>
skipper_rule = qi::space | '#' >> *(qi::char_ - qi::eol) >> qi::eol;
typedef BOOST_TYPEOF(skipper_rule) skipper_T;

class Grammar1 : boost::spirit::qi::grammar<Iterator, Skipper>
{
public:
typedef boost::spirit::qi::rule<Iterator, Skipper> rule_nil_T;
typedef boost::spirit::qi::rule<Iterator, string()> rule_str_T;
rule_nil_T under = qi::char_('_');
rule_nil_T dot = qi::char_('.');
rule_nil_T star = qi::char_('*');
rule_str_T file_name_star = qi::lexeme [ (qi::alpha | under) >> *(qi::alnum | under) >> dot >> star ];
rule_nil_T start = +file_name_star;
Grammar1(void) : Grammar1::base_type(start) { };
~Grammar1(void) { };
void parseInputFile(Iterator itr, Iterator itr_end)
{
bool b;
bool r = phrase_parse(itr, itr_end, start, skipper_rule);
if (r && itr == itr_end)
{
std::cout << "Parsing succeeded\n";
} else
{
string rest(itr, itr_end);
std::cout << "stopped at: \": " << rest << "\"\n";
}
}
};
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
Grammar1<string::const_iterator, skipper_T> g;
string input("input1.* input2.*");
g.parseInputFile(input.cbegin(), input.cend());
}
The important parts of the error message seem to be:
/usr/local/boost/include/boost/spirit/home/qi/nonterminal/rule.hpp:304:17:
error: no match for call to ‘(const function_type *REMOVED*)’
if (f(first, last, context, skipper))
^
The comment at line 304 in the above-mentioned Spirit file states that I
may be using an incompatible skipper, but I've tried the much simpler ascii::space_type skipper to no avail.
The rest of the error message:
usr/local/boost/include/boost/function/function_template.hpp:1048:7: note:

Any idea what I am doing wrong? My compiler is gcc 4.8.5.
You are trying to use rule_nil_T rule which has skipper inside rule_str_T rule which does not. For internal reasons Spirit can only lose skipper when calling a rule. The problem can be easily solved by inlining under, dot, and star at use site.
Note: a rule call in Qi has an overhead. Creating a rule for such a simple parser and then using it inside repeating parser is not a good idea.
Hint: you can utilize raw directive and use literal parsers inside it to get more performant and cleaner to look parser. Consider this: qi::lexeme[qi::raw[(qi::alpha | '_') >> qi::alnum % '.'] >> ".*"].

unable to decipher compile error when using boost.spirit.parser

I am trying to learn to parse using boost.spirit parser. I am using Windows 8.1 with VisualStudio 2015. I have installed and successfuly compiled the test program from the boost.spirit installation document so my installation of boost seems fine.
I have been following the tutorial on the boost.org on using the paser. I created the following code to parse a double:
#include <boost/config/warning_disable.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_core.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_operator.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_object.hpp>
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace ascii = boost::spirit::ascii;
template <typename Iterator>
bool myParser(Iterator first, Iterator last) {
using qi::double_;
qi::rule<Iterator, double(), ascii::space_type> myrule;
myrule %= double_;
bool r = parse(first, last, myrule, ascii::space);
return r;
}
int main() {
std::string dstr = std::string("2.1");
bool r = myParser(dstr.begin(), dstr.end());
return 0;
}
When I compile I get the following error message from rule.hpp line 304:
'bool boost::function4<R,T0,T1,T2,T3>::operator ()(T0,T1,T2,T3) const': cannot convert argument 4 from 'const boost::spirit::unused_type' to 'const boost::spirit::qi::char_class<boost::spirit::tag::char_code<boost::spirit::tag::space,boost::spirit::char_encoding::ascii>> '
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
As is mentioned by jv_ in the link, you are using a skipper, but not calling the phrase_parse API which would accept a skipper. So, the parse call tries to bind the ascii::space parser to the first exposed attribute (which is a double).
That assignment fails.
In all likelihood you don't want a skipper for this simple grammar, and I'd write:
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
template <typename Iterator> bool myParser(Iterator first, Iterator last) {
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
return qi::parse(first, last, qi::double_ >> qi::eoi);
}
int main() {
std::string const dstr("2.1");
bool r = myParser(dstr.begin(), dstr.end());
return r?0:1;
}
Note the qi::eol which checks that all of the input was consumed.

Filter the synthesized attribute through a std::map in a boost spirit semantic action

I have a case where I'd like to filter the value that comes up as a synthesized attribute inside of a rule through a std::map.
The map is pre-generated and will not change during the parsing.
The nature of the map and the real parser means that the lookup should never fail (although the actual number of elements may be quite large)
The usual approach perfectly suited to this problem (use a symbol table) isn't appropriate for the real case. In the real problem, the lookup is conditional based on an attribute that won't be apparent until much later in the parse (in a somewhat removed rule).
My attempt:
#define BOOST_SPIRIT_USE_PHOENIX_V3
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix.hpp>
#include <boost/foreach.hpp>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <map>
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace phx = boost::phoenix;
int main() {
std::map<unsigned int, unsigned int> myMap;
myMap[1] = 100; myMap[2] = 200; myMap[3] = 300;
std::string test = "1 2 3";
std::vector<unsigned int> results;
qi::rule<std::string::iterator, unsigned int()> r
= qi::uint_ [qi::_val = phx::at(myMap, qi::_1)];
qi::parse(test.begin(), test.end(), ( r % " " ), results);
BOOST_FOREACH(unsigned int &x, results) {
std::cout << x << "\n";
}
}
I guess I was under the impression, due to the phoenix support for stl containers, that this should work. But I get a compile error on the rule line. This error goes away if I replace the semantic action with the classic pointless [qi::_val = qi::_1] (not surprisingly).
The compiler error under MSVS10 is shockingly long, as usual, but here's the first mention of my code file: (at C:\code\Compiler2\spirit_test.cpp(25)... line 25 is the rule r)

Reposting from comment
Try qi::_val = phx::ref(myMap)[qi::_1] rather than qi::_val = phx::at(myMap, qi::_1).
The problem is that the return type of phoenix::at is defined in this header as container::value_type. This is a pair in the case of a map. Simply specializing the result for map makes it work (using ref as noted by ildjarn).

boost::bind does not compile

I am new to boost spirit and I have the following problem:
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_operator.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_function.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_statement.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
using namespace boost::spirit;
using namespace std;
struct MyGrammar
: qi::grammar<string::const_iterator, string(), ascii::space_type> {
MyGrammar();
void myFun(const string& s);
private:
qi::rule<string::const_iterator, string(), ascii::space_type> myRule;
};
using namespace boost::spirit;
using namespace std;
MyGrammar::MyGrammar() : MyGrammar::base_type(myRule) {
using qi::_1;
myRule = int_ [boost::bind(&MyGrammar::myFun, this, _1)]; // fails
myRule = int_ [_val = _1]; // fine
}
void MyGrammar::myFun(const string& s){
cout << "read: " << s << endl;
}
int
main(){
}
With the first assignment of myRule I get compile errors while the second assignment compiles fine.
In the first case the compiler outputs huge error messages that I don't understand.
At the end it says:
boost_1_49_0/include/boost/bind/bind.hpp:318:9: error: no match for call to '(const boost::_mfi::mf1<void, MyGrammar, const std::basic_string<char>&>) (MyGrammar* const&, const boost::phoenix::actor<boost::spirit::argument<0> >&)'

Any ideas?
Thanks a lot for any help!
You can't use placeholders from different bind implementations. There are currently three bind functions in Boost:
boost::bind, superseded by
boost::lambda::bind, superseded by
boost::phoenix::bind, which is what you should use for Boost.Spirit
The placeholders under boost::spirit::qi (and boost::spirit::karma) are the same as the ones used by boost::phoenix::bind, so just use that.
Oh, and pro tip: Stop your using namespace std; and preferrably any other using directive in global namespace.
The first problem is that you specifiy std::string as your synthesized attribute, but then define your rule in terms of qi::int_, which has a synthesized attribute of int.
The second problem is that, as the Spirit docs state directly, non-Phoenix functors take three arguments, not one:
You can use Boost.Bind to bind member functions. For function objects, the allowed signatures are:
void operator()(Attrib const&, unused_type, unused_type) const;
void operator()(Attrib const&, Context&, unused_type) const;
void operator()(Attrib const&, Context&, bool&) const;
The third problem is that you're using Spirit's Phoenix _1 placeholder rather than boost::bind's placeholder (which is effectively in the global namespace).
In summary, this should work:
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_operator.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_function.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_statement.hpp>
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace ascii = boost::spirit::ascii;
struct MyGrammar :
qi::grammar<std::string::const_iterator, int(), ascii::space_type>
{
MyGrammar();
void myFun(int i, qi::unused_type, qi::unused_type);
private:
qi::rule<std::string::const_iterator, int(), ascii::space_type> myRule;
};
MyGrammar::MyGrammar() : MyGrammar::base_type(myRule)
{
myRule = qi::int_[boost::bind(&MyGrammar::myFun, this, _1, _2, _3)];
}
void MyGrammar::myFun(int const i, qi::unused_type, qi::unused_type)
{
std::cout << "read: " << i << '\n';
}
int main()
{
std::string const input = "42";
std::string::const_iterator first = input.begin(), last = input.end();
qi::phrase_parse(first, last, MyGrammar(), ascii::space);
}
That being said, unless you have a very specific reason to use boost::bind here, you should be using boost::phoenix::bind instead:
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/spirit/include/qi.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_operator.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_function.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_statement.hpp>
#include <boost/spirit/include/phoenix_bind.hpp>
namespace qi = boost::spirit::qi;
namespace ascii = boost::spirit::ascii;
struct MyGrammar :
qi::grammar<std::string::const_iterator, int(), ascii::space_type>
{
MyGrammar();
void myFun(int i);
private:
qi::rule<std::string::const_iterator, int(), ascii::space_type> myRule;
};
MyGrammar::MyGrammar() : MyGrammar::base_type(myRule)
{
myRule = qi::int_[boost::phoenix::bind(&MyGrammar::myFun, this, qi::_1)];
}
void MyGrammar::myFun(int const i)
{
std::cout << "read: " << i << '\n';
}
int main()
{
std::string const input = "42";
std::string::const_iterator first = input.begin(), last = input.end();
qi::phrase_parse(first, last, MyGrammar(), ascii::space);
}
This allows your bound member function to take only a single argument – the synthesized attribute – as you originally wanted.

boost spirit v2 compile error - trying to use symbols for something slightly harder and missing an important point somewhere

I have tried various approaches to fixing this issue with maps and casts, splitting the parse into different sub-pieces, using std::vector directly and trying _r1 etc. but I seem to have failed to grasp something fundamental about the use of attributes.
I want to parse a line such as:
DEFMACRO macroname param1 param2 param3 ... paramN
and add macroname into a qi::symbols parser along with its list of params.
Matching on
lit("DEFMACRO") >> (+char_) >> predicate_
and putting into a defmacro struct works fine, but when I try to use the result or store it whole as the data element of a symbols parser I get errors of the form
cannot convert from 'const boost::phoenix::actor' to 'const client::defmacro'
but whatever I try I always fail to "convert from 'const boost::phoenix::actor' to" whatever data type I am trying to use (eg straight to std::vector or other variations in structs. Also tried variations on syntax but so far drawn a blank.
Code fragment is below, followed by compiler output for this variation on my problem.
Any explanation of my failure to grasp some important concept very welcome.
Using VC++ 2008 with Spirit 1.42.

After that you can do with your macros what you want (for example, pass it to another grammar).
Try this:
// ******** This line will not compile *************************
using qi::_val;
defmacro_ = defmacro_line_[macros.add(at_c<0>(_val),_1)];
// *************************************************************
