Kept their + locations. IOW, broke the namespace eval apart into small sections not + covering the procedure definitions. + (3) Reindented the code. Just lots of whitespace changes. + Functionality unchanged. + (4) Moved the multiple namespace eval's around. Command export at the + top, everything else (var decls, argument parsing setup) at the + bottom. + (5) Moved the argument parsing setup into a procedure called when the + code is loaded. Easier management of temporary data. + (6) Replaced several uses of 'Set' with calls to the new procedure + 'InterpState' and direct access to the per-slave state array. + (7) Replaced the remaining uses of 'Set' and others outside of the + path/token handling, and deleted a number of procedures related to + state array access which are not used any longer. + (8) Converted the path token system to cache normalized paths and path + <-> token conversions. Removed more procedures not used any longer. + Removed the test cases 4.3 and 4.4 from safe.test. They were testing + the now deleted command "InterpStateName". + (9) Changed the log command setup so that logging is compiled out + completely when disabled (default). + (10) Misc. cleanup. Inlined IsInterp into CheckInterp, its only user. + Consistent 'return -code error' for error reporting. Updated to use + modern features (lassign, in/ni, dicts).

The new parser is better able to generate error - messages that clearly report both the nature and context of the syntax - error [Bugs 1029267, 1381715]. For now, the code for the old parser is - still present and can be activated with a "#define OLD_EXPR_PARSER - 1". This is for the sake of a clean implementation patch, and for ease - of benchmarking. The new parser is non-recursive, so much lighter in - stack consumption, but it does use more heap, so there may be cases - where parsing of long expressions that succeeded with the old parser - will lead to out of memory panics with the new one.

This + corrects reports of stack-blowing crashes parsing long expressions + [Bug 906201] and replaces a fundamentally O(N^2) algorithm with an + O(N) one [RFE 903765]. The new parser is better able to generate error + messages that clearly report both the nature and context of the syntax + error [Bugs 1029267, 1381715]. For now, the code for the old parser is + still present and can be activated with a "#define OLD_EXPR_PARSER + 1". This is for the sake of a clean implementation patch, and for ease + of benchmarking. The new parser is non-recursive, so much lighter in + stack consumption, but it does use more heap, so there may be cases + where parsing of long expressions that succeeded with the old parser + will lead to out of memory panics with the new one.
