W3C specification does not allow predicates after abbreviated steps.
Currently this results in parsing terminating at the step, which leads
to confusing error messages like "Invalid query" or "Unmatched braces".
Any time an allocation fails xpath_allocator can set an externally
provided bool. The plan is to keep this bool up until evaluation ends,
so that we can use it to discard the potentially malformed result.
For both allocate and reallocate, provide both _nothrow and _throw
functions; this change renames allocate() to allocate_throw() (same for
reallocate) to make it easier to change the code to remove throwing
variants.
Propagate the failure to the caller manually. This is a first step to
parser structure that does not depend on exceptions or longjmp for error
handling (and thus matches the XML parser). To preserve semantics we'll
have to convert error code to exception later.
It's still not clear as to what exactly makes it emit this error when compiling
string_to_integer:
CC-3059 crayc++: INTERNAL __C_FILE_SCOPE_DATA__, File = <pugixml>/src/pugixml.cpp, Line = 4524, Column = 4
Expected no overflow in routine.
But a viable workaround for now is to exploit the knowledge that it uses
two-complement arithmetics and invert the sign manually.
Fixes#125.
These warnings are emitted on some GCC versions when targeting ARM; the
alignment is guaranteed to be correct due to how page offsets are set up
but the compiler doesn't know.
Unfortunately, some compilers don't suppress these kinds of warnings in
template instantiations; solve this by moving the responsibility for computing
negative bool to the caller.
Also since we're doing that we don't really need to convert to unsigned in the
implementation - might as well have the caller do it, which removes some type
dispatch logic and slightly reduces binary size.
Previously the error offset pointed to the first mismatching character, which
can be confusing especially if the start tag name is a prefix of the end tag
name. Instead, move the offset to the first character of the name - that way
it should be more obvious that the problem is that the entire name mismatches.
Fixes#112.
The separate copy of allocator state in parser was meant to increase parsing
performance by reducing aliasing/indirection, but benchmarks against the
current source don't indicate that this is worthwhile.
Removing this simplifies the code slightly and makes it possible to move
compact hash table to the allocator.
This adds about 40 cycles for parsing <?xml version='1.0'?> declaration and
about 70 cycles for parsing <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>, as
measured on a Core i7, which should be negligible for all documents.
Fixes#16.
Previously the page size was defining the data size, and due to additional
headers (+ recently removed allocation padding) the actual allocation was a bit
bigger.
The problem is that some allocators round 2^N+k allocations to 2^N+M, which can
result in noticeable waste of space. Specifically, on 64-bit OSX allocating the
previous page size (32k+40) resulted in 32k+512 allocation, thereby wasting 472
bytes, or 1.4%.
Now we have the allocation size specified exactly and just recompute the available
data size, which can in small space savings depending on the allocator.
When using format_raw the space in the empty tag (<node />) is the only
character that does not have to be there; so format_raw almost results in
a minimal XML but not quite.
It's pretty unlikely that this is crucial for any users - the formatting
change should be benign, and it's better to improve format_raw than to add
yet another flag.
Fixes#87.
Unify the implementations by automatically deducing the unsigned type from its
signed counterpart. That allows us to use a templated function instead of
duplicating code.
This utilizes the fact that pages are of limited size so we can store offset
from the object to the page in a few bits - we currently use 24 although that's
excessive given that pages are limited to ~512k.
This has several benefits:
- Pages do not have to be 64b aligned any more - this simplifies allocation flow
and frees up 40-50 bytes from xml_document::_memory.
- Header now has 8 bits available for metadata for both compact and default mode
which makes it possible to store type as-is (allowing easy type extension and
removing one add/sub operation from type checks).
- One extra bit is easily available for future metadata extension (in addition
to the bit for type encoding that could be reclaimed if necessary).
- Allocators that return 4b-aligned memory on 64-bit platforms work fine if
misaligned reads are supported.
The downside is that there is one or two extra instructions on the allocation
path. This does not seem to hurt parsing performance.
This change fixes an important ordering issue - if element node has a PCDATA
child *after* other elements, it's impossible to tell which order the children
were in.
Since the goal of PCDATA embedding is to save memory when it's the only child,
only apply the optimization to the first child. This seems to fix all
roundtripping issues so the only caveat is that the DOM structure is different.
This is a bit awkward since preserving correct indentation structure requires
a bit of extra work, and the closing tag has to be written by _start function
to correctly process the rest of the tree.
When this flag is true, PCDATA value is saved to the parent element instead of
allocating a new node.
This prevents some documents from round-tripping since it loses information,
but can provide a significant memory reduction and parsing speedup for some
documents.
Apparently some MinGW distributions have a compiler that's recent enough to
support C++11 but limits.h header that incorrectly omits LLONG limits in
strict ANSI mode, since it guards the definitions with:
#if !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__) && defined(__GNUC__)
We can just define these symbols ourselves in this specific case.
Fixes#66.
Since they don't contribute to the resulting value just skip them before
parsing. This matches the behavior of strtol/strtoll and results in more
intuitive behavior.
Node type enum is not used as an array index anywhere else; the code is not
very readable and the value of this "optimization" is questionable.
The conditions are arranged so that in all normal cases the first comparison
returns true anyway.
The minneg argument is supposed to be the absolute value of the minimum negative
representable number. In case of two-complement arithmetic, it's the same as the
value itself but it's better to be explicit and negate the argument.
Instead of functions with different names (e.g. decode_utf8_block), split
utf_decoder class into multiple classes with ::process static function.
This makes it easier to share code for decoding different encodings.
Instead of calling xml_document public functions just call implementation of
load_buffer_inplace_own. This makes it so we only call reset() once during
load_file/load.
This makes conversion significantly faster and removes more CRT dependencies;
in particular, to support long long pugixml only requires the type itself (and
the division operator...).
New implementation is up to 3x faster on short decimal numbers.
Note that unlike the old implementation, new implementation correctly handles
overflow and underflow and clamps the value to the representable range. This
means that there are some behavior changes - e.g. previously as_uint on "-1"
would return INT_MAX instead of 0.
In addition to CRT issues, for platforms with 64-bit long old implementation
incorrectly truncated from long to int or unsigned int, so even if CRT clamped
the values the result would have been incorrect.
This reduces the amount of non-standard C++ functionality pugixml may be using
by avoiding sprintf with %lld; additionally this implementation is significantly
faster (4-5x) than sprintf, mostly due to avoiding format string parsing and
stream setup that commonly happens in CRT implementations.
This comes at the expense of requiring long long division/remainder operations
if PUGIXML_USE_LONG_LONG is defined which will surely bite me one day.
Change the expression to reference the array element indirectly. The memory
block can be bigger than the structure so it's invalid to use static data[]
size for bounds checking.
To be more precise, the memory block is now aligned to be able to reliably
allocate objects with both double and pointer fields. If there is a platform
with a 4-byte double and a 4-byte pointer, the memory block alignment there will
stay the same after this change.
Fixes#48.
Apparently Clang 3.7 implements C++ DR 1748 that makes placement new with null
pointer undefined behavior. Which renders all C++ programs that rely on this
invalid. Which includes pugixml.
This is not very likely to happen in the wild because the allocations that are
subject to this in pugixml are relatively small, but tests break because of
this.
Fix the issue by adding null pointer checks (that are completely redundant in
all current compilers except Clang 3.7 but it's not like there is another
option).
Work around a name lookup bug by pulling auto_deleter name in the local
scope. We could also move auto_deleter to pugi:: namespace, but that
pollutes it unnecessarily for other compilers.
Extra argument 'hint' is used to start the attribute lookup; if the attribute
is not found the lookup is restarted from the beginning of the attriubte list.
This allows to optimize attribute lookups if you need to get many attributes
from the node and can make assumptions about the likely ordering. The code is
correct regardless of the order, but it is faster than using vanilla lookups
if the order matches the calling order.
Fixes#30.
Now compact_string matches compact_pointer_parent.
Turns out PUGI__UNLIKELY is good at reordering conditions but usually does not
really affect performance. Since MSVC should treat "if" branches as taken and
does not support branch probabilities, don't use them if we don't need to.
Instead of checking if the object being removed allocated a marker, mark the
marker block as deleted immediately upon allocation. This simplifies the logic
and prevents extra markers from being inserted if we allocate/deallocate the
same node indefinitely.
Also change marker pointer type to uint32_t*.
When we deallocate nodes/attributes that allocated the marker we have to
adjust the size accordingly, and dismiss the marker in case it gets
overwritten with something else...
