Title: Running a Strategy: the command line

|

## Functionalizing reduction rules
|
||||
|
||||
The {! ../docrefs/manual.md !} next goes on, in Chapter 5, to consider ways to
|
||||
add the ability to also compute conjunctive normal forms for propositional
|
||||
ASTs. The rules for this form cannot simply be added to those from the prior
|
||||
chapter for disjunctive normal form, as they would produce a non-terminating
|
||||
rewrite system.
|
||||
|
||||
The first method for which working examples are provided is the method of
|
||||
"functionalization" in {! ../docrefs/sec5.1.2.md !}. Although an anti-pattern
|
||||
in the views of the Spoofax designers, the examples are still instructive and
|
||||
of course we want to implement them here.
|
||||
|
||||
So, we can grab the Stratego code given in the section as our
|
||||
`trans/prop-dnf3.str`:
|
||||
```Stratego
|
||||
**/
|
||||

|
||||

||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
Notice the few minor differences from the manual. We import `signatures/-` as
|
||||
before. We've used a fresh identifier for the `E` and `D` rules, because unlike
|
||||
in the manual, all of our Stratego files are imported into the same main
|
||||
`trans/spoofax_propositional_language.str` module. So they must live together,
|
||||
but as noted in the manual, these functionalized rules do not "play together"
|
||||
nicely with the evaluation `E` rules introduced [earlier](prop-eval-rules.md).
|
||||
And we've renamed the `dnf` rule to `make-nf` -- for a reason that will
|
||||
become clear in a moment -- but incorporated the wrapping by `Dnf` of the AST
|
||||
we want to compute the DNF of into the `dnf3` strategy, since our concrete
|
||||
syntax has no way of specifying such a wrapping.
|
||||
|
||||
Also as before, we've created a `syntax/examples/sec_5_1_2_test1.spl`
|
||||
(which it turns out is just the same as `sec_4_2_test3.spl`)
|
||||
and a menu item and a `test/manual-suite.spt` case called `sec5_1_2_test1_ex` to
|
||||
see that all is working well. Applying `dnf3` to the test file produces
|
||||
```
|
||||
{! ../syntax/examples/sec5.1.2_test1.dnf.aterm !}
|
||||
```
|
||||
which is correct. (Note the contrast with what's shown in
|
||||
{! ../docrefs/sec5.1.2.md !} as the output of the `prop-dnf3` program,
|
||||
in which the recurring "ATom" typo has blocked
|
||||
the reductive elimination of some of the occurrences of the Dnf function
|
||||
symbol. Of course, as the manual itself points out, in proper operation of
|
||||
this functionalization approach, all of the function symbols must reduce away
|
||||
to end up back in an AST of the subject language.)
|
||||
|
||||
So now we can move on to the conjunctive normal form. The Stratego code
|
||||
for the CNF is not given explicitly in the manual, but it consists of:
|
||||
```
|
||||
{! prop-cnf3.str !}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note in particular we have not repeated the `make-nf` strategy -- that's the
|
||||
entire point of functionalization; we can use the same top-level reduction
|
||||
scheme because the introduced function symbols keep track of what operations
|
||||
are being performed. We also introduce a strategy `dcnf` for the simultaneous
|
||||
construction of DNF and CNF, as noted in the manual.
|
||||
|
||||
Again, there are menu items and SPT cases for the `cnf3` and `dcnf` strategies
|
||||
as well. There's one caveat here, though. The test case for `dcnf`:
|
||||
```SPT
|
||||
{! ../test/manual-suite.spt extract:
|
||||
start: '^(.*test.*both.*\n?)$'
|
||||
!}
|
||||
```
|
||||
does not actually work, because of what appears to be a bug in SPT: the `to`
|
||||
in the expectation line is interpreted as part of the expected AST. However,
|
||||
the error message does show that the transformation is operating properly.
|
||||
|
||||
We can now use this example to show yet another way to try Stratego stragies
|
||||
with the Spoofax IDE implementation.
