2023-05-03parser: Split block into small functionsCarlos Maniero
Since it is possible to look a future token without consuming it, it was possible to split the block parser into small chunks of code. There is the performance drawback, because now the parser makes multiple lookups to the same token. However IMO that it is not a big concern given the small computation required to get a token. Also it can be easily addressed by computing all token in advance. Memory Leak: During the refactor I found some extra memory leaks related to not released scopes. So then, more than just printing a message I introduced an assert on scope.c to make sure developers will get this feedback asap because our testing framework suppress messages from stderr when the test passes.

2023-04-30parser: Registry identifiers on scopeJohnny Richard
We are parsing variables/functions and checking if they are defined on scope. Otherwise we fail the parsing with a nice message. Signed-off-by: Johnny Richard <johnny@johnnyrichard.com> Co-authored-by: Carlos Maniero <carlosmaniero@gmail.com>
2023-04-30style: Add void to function without argumentsJohnny Richard
After run `make CC=clang` we found the following problems: error: a function declaration without a prototype is deprecated in all versions of C [-Werror,-Wstrict-prototypes] Signed-off-by: Johnny Richard <johnny@johnnyrichard.com>
2023-04-29scope: Add a scope stack for identifier resolutionsCarlos Maniero
Before accepting an identifier, the parser should check if that identifier will be available. With this implementation it will be possible. Take the following code example: main(): i32 { return my_exit_code; } The parser must return an error informing that *my_exit_code* is not defined in the example above. The ast scope is a support module for parser and ast, simplifying identifier resolution. Once a curly bracket ({) is open the *scope_enter()* is called and when it is closed (}) we pop the entire stack with *scope_leave()*. Signed-off-by: Carlos Maniero <carlosmaniero@gmail.com>
