Hi,
I am trying out Alex. I copied the calculator specification file from
Alex's official document and changed the wrapper type from "basic" to
"monad". However, after I generated the ".hs" file from the lexical
specification and compiled the ".hs" file, I got the message
"Variable not in scope: `alexEOF'". I cannot find explanation about
this 'alexEOF' function in the document. Can any body be kindly
enough to tell me what this function is? Should I write it myself or
not? My lexical code is listed as the below. Thanks a lot.
You should provide alexEOF. The idea is that it is a special token
representing the end of input. This is necessary because the monad
wrapper doesn't deliver a list of tokens like the basic wrapper, so it
needs some way to signal the end of input. The easiest thing to do is
add a constructor to your token datatype, and then just set alexEOF to
that constructor:
data Token =
....
| EOFToken
alexEOF = EOFToken
{
module Lex where
}
%wrapper "monad"
$digit = 0-9 -- digits
$alpha = [a-zA-Z] -- alphabetic characters
tokens :-
$white+ ;
"--".* ;
let { \s -> Let }
in { \s -> In }
$digit+ { \s -> Int (read s) }
[\=\+\-\*\/\(\)] { \s -> Sym (head s) }
$alpha [$alpha $digit \_ \']* { \s -> Var s }
{
-- Each action has type :: String -> Token
-- The token type:
data Token =
Let |
In |
Sym Char |
Var String |
Int Int
deriving (Eq,Show)
}

I think that you also need add a token definition like :
eof {\s -> EOFToken}
