Automatic Code Enumeration Generation

To have the Code enumeration generated automatically from the table entries, the table source was structured so the awk scripts can read it. Since the Code enumeration value will now be the same as the table entry index, the code member of the table entry is not necessary and was removed. The code name initializers in the table entries was moved to a comment on the line of the entries' open brace.

The awk scripts were rewritten to read the table source file instead of the main include file. The awk script were also changed to read the table source file directly and write the output files directly. This eliminates the requirement to redirect the input and output to the correct files when running the awk scripts. Logic was also added to the codes awk script to check for duplicate code names.

The code to index conversion array that was initialized in the table class constructor, along with the check for duplicate and missing codes, was removed. The code and index access functions in the table class were also removed. The token class index member was replaced with a code member. All the code was updated to use the code enumeration value instead of the index, though the code will be used as an index.

One problem with using an enumeration value instead of an integer index is that normal math functions cannot be used, like the add and increment operators. These operators are needed, so operator functions were created for the code enumeration, which includes the add, prefix increment and postfix increment operators. These functions type cast to integer to add and then type cast back to the code enumeration value.

The null code entry at the end of the table was moved to the beginning so that that null code enumeration value (index) would be zero. The table search function for searching for an immediate command previously assumed that the immediate commands were at the beginning of the table entry array. Moving the null code to be the beginning of the array complicated this. Therefore, immediate command bracketing codes were put around these entries for this search function.

Due to the these table entry changes, the parser test output files were updated since all the code indexes changed. This would be a good time to make another pre-release, but since there have been no download activity for recent pre-releases, there will not be a pre-release at this time. Now the translation of the INPUT command can begin...
