POerror: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘TOKEN’
text
Body
copied!<p>Basically this is a program which I take a text file with some code and take each char and make it a token or make the other chars that are included in it become a token like a variable. That part works I know because I have used this code for another project and I'm just reusing. The problem is that when I am trying to get the token the scanner.c create and return it to another file it is saying I have an error "error: expected identifier or ‘(’ before ‘TOKEN’". I cant figure out where the error is. Here is my scanner.c file and I also posted the .h file where the token is defined. </p> <pre><code>#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include "parser.h" *TOKEN parseString(char *token); *TOKEN parseChar(char token); *TOKEN scan(FILE *input_file) { int stateTable[3][122]; int i = 0; int j = 0; for( i=0; i < 3; i++)//init to 0 { for ( j=0; j < 122; j++) { stateTable[i][j] = 0; } } for( i=48; i < 57; i++)//all numbers [0-9] { stateTable[1][i] = 3; stateTable[3][i] = 3; } for( i=97; i < 122; i++)//all alpha [a-z] { stateTable[1][i] = 2; stateTable[2][i] = 2; } stateTable[1][10] = 1;// \n stateTable[1][32] = 1;// space stateTable[1][40] = 1;// ( stateTable[1][41] = 1;// ) stateTable[1][42] = 1;// * stateTable[1][43] = 1;// + stateTable[1][45] = 1;// - stateTable[1][47] = 1;// / stateTable[1][59] = 1;// ; stateTable[1][61] = 1;// = int state = 0; int index = 0; char temp[20]; char token; token = fgetc(input_file); state = stateTable[1][(int) token]; if (state == 2 || state == 3)//num or alpha { temp[index] = token; index++; scan(input_file); } else if (state = 1) { if (index >= 1)//digit or identifier { temp[index] = '\0'; return parseString(&temp[0]); temp[0] = '\0'; } else return parseChar(token); if(token == ';' ||token == ')') return parseChar(token); index = 0; } } *TOKEN parseString(char *token) { TOKEN *temp = malloc(sizeof(TOKEN)); if(strcmp("repeat",token) == 0) &temp.type = 4; else if(strcmp("print",token) == 0) &temp.type = 5; else if(isdigit(token[0])) { &temp.type = 12; &temp.attribute = token[0]; } else if(strcmp(token, "") != 0) { &temp.type = 10; &temp.attribute = token; } return temp; } *TOKEN parseChar(char token) { TOKEN *temp = malloc(sizeof(TOKEN)); if(token == '+' || token == '-') { &temp.type = 14; &temp.attribute = token; } else if(token == '/' || token == '*' || token == '%') { &temp.type = 13; &temp.attribute = token; } else if(token == '=') &temp.type = 3; else if(token == ';') &temp.type = 17; else if(token == '(') &temp.type = 15; else if(token ==')') &temp.type = 16; return temp; } </code></pre> <p>Here's the parser.h file that has the TOKEN in it described.</p> <pre><code>#ifndef _parser_h #define _parser_h typedef enum token_type { Id, keyword, num, addOp, multOp, assignment, semicolon, lparen, rparen }TOKEN_TYPE; typedef struct token{ TOKEN_TYPE type; char* attribute; }TOKEN; typedef enum node_type { PROGRAM, statement, assignStmt, repeatStmt, printStmt, exp, term, factor }NODE_TYPE; #endif </code></pre> <p>It just keeps saying where ever I declare the function name that I am missing a '(' before the TOKEN.</p> <p>Any help would be great. </p>
