## Phases of translation <a id="lex.phases">[[lex.phases]]</a>
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified by the
|
| 27 |
following phases.[^1]
|
|
|
|
| 29 |
1. Physical source file characters are mapped, in an
|
| 30 |
*implementation-defined* manner, to the basic source character set
|
| 31 |
(introducing new-line characters for end-of-line indicators) if
|
| 32 |
necessary. The set of physical source file characters accepted is
|
| 33 |
*implementation-defined*. Any source file character not in the basic
|
| 34 |
+
source character set [[lex.charset]] is replaced by the
|
| 35 |
*universal-character-name* that designates that character. An
|
| 36 |
implementation may use any internal encoding, so long as an actual
|
| 37 |
extended character encountered in the source file, and the same
|
| 38 |
extended character expressed in the source file as a
|
| 39 |
*universal-character-name* (e.g., using the `\uXXXX` notation), are
|
| 40 |
+
handled equivalently except where this replacement is reverted
|
| 41 |
+
[[lex.pptoken]] in a raw string literal.
|
| 42 |
2. Each instance of a backslash character (\\ immediately followed by a
|
| 43 |
new-line character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to
|
| 44 |
form logical source lines. Only the last backslash on any physical
|
| 45 |
source line shall be eligible for being part of such a splice.
|
| 46 |
Except for splices reverted in a raw string literal, if a splice
|
|
|
|
| 49 |
that is not empty and that does not end in a new-line character, or
|
| 50 |
that ends in a new-line character immediately preceded by a
|
| 51 |
backslash character before any such splicing takes place, shall be
|
| 52 |
processed as if an additional new-line character were appended to
|
| 53 |
the file.
|
| 54 |
+
3. The source file is decomposed into preprocessing tokens
|
| 55 |
+
[[lex.pptoken]] and sequences of white-space characters (including
|
| 56 |
comments). A source file shall not end in a partial preprocessing
|
| 57 |
token or in a partial comment.[^2] Each comment is replaced by one
|
| 58 |
space character. New-line characters are retained. Whether each
|
| 59 |
nonempty sequence of white-space characters other than new-line is
|
| 60 |
retained or replaced by one space character is unspecified. The
|
| 61 |
process of dividing a source file’s characters into preprocessing
|
| 62 |
+
tokens is context-dependent. \[*Example 1*: See the handling of `<`
|
| 63 |
within a `#include` preprocessing directive. — *end example*]
|
| 64 |
4. Preprocessing directives are executed, macro invocations are
|
| 65 |
expanded, and `_Pragma` unary operator expressions are executed. If

a character sequence that matches the syntax of a
|

*universal-character-name* is produced by token concatenation
|
| 68 |
+
[[cpp.concat]], the behavior is undefined. A `#include`
|
| 69 |
preprocessing directive causes the named header or source file to be
|
| 70 |
processed from phase 1 through phase 4, recursively. All
|
| 71 |
preprocessing directives are then deleted.

5. Each basic source character set member in a *character-literal* or a
|
| 73 |
+
*string-literal*, as well as each escape sequence and
|
| 74 |
+
*universal-character-name* in a *character-literal* or a non-raw
|
| 75 |
string literal, is converted to the corresponding member of the
|
| 76 |
execution character set ([[lex.ccon]], [[lex.string]]); if there is
|
| 77 |
no corresponding member, it is converted to an
|
| 78 |
*implementation-defined* member other than the null (wide)
|
| 79 |
character.[^3]
|
| 80 |
6. Adjacent string literal tokens are concatenated.
|
| 81 |
7. White-space characters separating tokens are no longer significant.
|
| 82 |
+
Each preprocessing token is converted into a token [[lex.token]].
|
| 83 |
The resulting tokens are syntactically and semantically analyzed and
|
| 84 |
translated as a translation unit. \[*Note 1*: The process of
|
| 85 |
analyzing and translating the tokens may occasionally result in one
|
| 86 |
+
token being replaced by a sequence of other tokens
|
| 87 |
+
[[temp.names]]. — *end note*] It is *implementation-defined*
|
| 88 |
+
whether the sources for module units and header units on which the
|
| 89 |
+
current translation unit has an interface dependency (
|
| 90 |
+
[[module.unit]], [[module.import]]) are required to be available.
|
| 91 |
+
\[*Note 2*: Source files, translation units and translated
|
| 92 |
+
translation units need not necessarily be stored as files, nor need
|
| 93 |
+
there be any one-to-one correspondence between these entities and
|
| 94 |
+
any external representation. The description is conceptual only, and
|
| 95 |
+
does not specify any particular implementation. — *end note*]
|
| 96 |
8. Translated translation units and instantiation units are combined as
|
| 97 |
follows: \[*Note 3*: Some or all of these may be supplied from a
|
| 98 |
library. — *end note*] Each translated translation unit is examined
|
| 99 |
to produce a list of required instantiations. \[*Note 4*: This may
|
| 100 |
+
include instantiations which have been explicitly requested
|
| 101 |
+
[[temp.explicit]]. — *end note*] The definitions of the required
|
| 102 |
templates are located. It is *implementation-defined* whether the
|
| 103 |
source of the translation units containing these definitions is
|
| 104 |
required to be available. \[*Note 5*: An implementation could encode
|
| 105 |
sufficient information into the translated translation unit so as to
|
| 106 |
ensure the source is not required here. — *end note*] All the

A *universal-character-name* designates the character in ISO/IEC 10646
|
| 147 |
+
(if any) whose code point is the hexadecimal number represented by the
|
| 148 |

sequence of *hexadecimal-digit*s in the *universal-character-name*. The
|
| 149 |
+
program is ill-formed if that number is not a code point or if it is a
|
| 150 |
+
surrogate code point. Noncharacter code points and reserved code points
|
| 151 |
+
are considered to designate separate characters distinct from any
|
| 152 |
+
ISO/IEC 10646 character. If a *universal-character-name* outside the

ill-formed.[^5]

[*Note 1*: ISO/IEC 10646 code points are integers in the range

```
|
| 197 |
|
| 198 |
+
Each preprocessing token that is converted to a token [[lex.token]]
|
| 199 |
+
shall have the lexical form of a keyword, an identifier, a literal, or
|
| 200 |
+
an operator or punctuator.
|
| 201 |
|
| 202 |
A preprocessing token is the minimal lexical element of the language in
|
| 203 |
translation phases 3 through 6. The categories of preprocessing token
|
| 204 |
+
are: header names, placeholder tokens produced by preprocessing `import`
|
| 205 |
+
and `module` directives (*import-keyword*, *module-keyword*, and
|
| 206 |
+
*export-keyword*), identifiers, preprocessing numbers, character
|
| 207 |
literals (including user-defined character literals), string literals
|
| 208 |
(including user-defined string literals), preprocessing operators and
|
| 209 |
punctuators, and single non-white-space characters that do not lexically
|
| 210 |
match the other preprocessing token categories. If a `'` or a `"`
|
| 211 |
character matches the last category, the behavior is undefined.
|
| 212 |
Preprocessing tokens can be separated by white space; this consists of
|
| 213 |
+
comments [[lex.comment]], or white-space characters (space, horizontal
|
| 214 |
+
tab, new-line, vertical tab, and form-feed), or both. As described in
|
| 215 |
+
[[cpp]], in certain circumstances during translation phase 4, white
|
| 216 |
+
space (or the absence thereof) serves as more than preprocessing token
|
| 217 |
+
separation. White space can appear within a preprocessing token only as
|
| 218 |
+
part of a header name or between the quotation characters in a character
|
| 219 |
+
literal or string literal.
|
| 220 |
|
| 221 |
If the input stream has been parsed into preprocessing tokens up to a
|
| 222 |
given character:
|
| 223 |
|
| 224 |
- If the next character begins a sequence of characters that could be
|
|
|
|
| 238 |
preprocessing token by itself and not as the first character of the
|
| 239 |
alternative token `<:`.
|
| 240 |
- Otherwise, the next preprocessing token is the longest sequence of
|
| 241 |
characters that could constitute a preprocessing token, even if that
|
| 242 |
would cause further lexical analysis to fail, except that a
|
| 243 |
+
*header-name* [[lex.header]] is only formed
|
| 244 |
+
- after the `include` or `import` preprocessing token in an `#include`
|
| 245 |
+
[[cpp.include]] or `import` [[cpp.import]] directive, or
|
| 246 |
+
- within a *has-include-expression*.
|
| 247 |
|
| 248 |
[*Example 1*:
|
| 249 |
|
| 250 |
``` cpp
|
| 251 |
#define R "x"
|
| 252 |
const char* s = R"y"; // ill-formed raw string, not "x" "y"
|
| 253 |
```
|
| 254 |
|
| 255 |
— *end example*]
|
| 256 |
|
| 257 |
+
The *import-keyword* is produced by processing an `import` directive
|
| 258 |
+
[[cpp.import]], the *module-keyword* is produced by preprocessing a
|
| 259 |
+
`module` directive [[cpp.module]], and the *export-keyword* is produced
|
| 260 |
+
by preprocessing either of the previous two directives.
|
| 261 |
+
|
| 262 |
+
[*Note 1*: None has any observable spelling. — *end note*]
|
| 263 |
+
|
| 264 |
[*Example 2*: The program fragment `0xe+foo` is parsed as a
|
| 265 |
+
preprocessing number token (one that is not a valid *integer-literal* or
|
| 266 |
+
*floating-point-literal* token), even though a parse as three
|
| 267 |
+
preprocessing tokens `0xe`, `+`, and `foo` might produce a valid
|
| 268 |
+
expression (for example, if `foo` were a macro defined as `1`).
|
| 269 |
+
Similarly, the program fragment `1E1` is parsed as a preprocessing
|
| 270 |
+
number (one that is a valid *floating-point-literal* token), whether or
|
| 271 |
+
not `E` is a macro name. — *end example*]
|
| 272 |
|
| 273 |
[*Example 3*: The program fragment `x+++++y` is parsed as `x
|
| 274 |
++ ++ + y`, which, if `x` and `y` have integral types, violates a
|
| 275 |
constraint on increment operators, even though the parse `x ++ + ++ y`
|
| 276 |
might yield a correct expression. — *end example*]
|
|
|
|
| 280 |
Alternative token representations are provided for some operators and
|
| 281 |
punctuators.[^6]
|
| 282 |
|
| 283 |
In all respects of the language, each alternative token behaves the
|
| 284 |
same, respectively, as its primary token, except for its spelling.[^7]
|
| 285 |
+
The set of alternative tokens is defined in [[lex.digraph]].

There are five kinds of tokens: identifiers, keywords, literals,[^8]

operators, and other separators. Blanks, horizontal and vertical tabs,

| 299 |
newlines, formfeeds, and comments (collectively, “white space”), as

[*Note 1*: Header name preprocessing tokens only appear within a
|
| 351 |

`#include` preprocessing directive, a `__has_include` preprocessing
|

[[lex.pptoken]]). — *end note*]
|
| 354 |
|
| 355 |
The sequences in both forms of *header-name*s are mapped in an

[[lex.fcon]].
|
| 385 |
|
| 386 |
A preprocessing number does not have a type or a value; it acquires both

*floating-point-literal* token.

introduced whenever an actual extended character is encountered in the

*hexadecimal-fractional-constant* or *hexadecimal-digit-sequence* of a

| 945 |
+
*hexadecimal-floating-point-literal*. In the significand, the sequence

as a base N real number s, where N is 10 for a

If an *exponent-part* or *binary-exponent-part* is present, the exponent

sequence of an optional *sign* and the *digit*s as a base 10 integer.

Otherwise, the exponent e is 0. The scaled value of the literal is

*hexadecimal-floating-point-literal*.

*floating-point-literal* is the scaled value if representable, else the

After translation phase 6, a *string-literal* that does not begin with
|
| 1069 |
+
an *encoding-prefix* is an *ordinary string literal*. An ordinary string
|
| 1070 |
+
literal has type “array of *n* `const char`” where *n* is the size of
|
| 1071 |
+
the string as defined below, has static storage duration [[basic.stc]],
|
| 1072 |
+
and is initialized with the given characters.
|
| 1073 |
|
| 1074 |
A *string-literal* that begins with `u8`, such as `u8"asdf"`, is a
|
| 1075 |
+
*UTF-8 string literal*. A UTF-8 string literal has type “array of *n*
|
| 1076 |
+
`const char8_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below;
|
| 1077 |
+
each successive element of the object representation [[basic.types]] has
|
| 1078 |
+
the value of the corresponding code unit of the UTF-8 encoding of the
|
| 1079 |
+
string.
|
| 1080 |
|
| 1081 |
Ordinary string literals and UTF-8 string literals are also referred to
|
| 1082 |
+
as narrow string literals.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 1083 |
|
| 1084 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `u`, such as `u"asdf"`, is a *UTF-16
|
| 1085 |
+
string literal*. A UTF-16 string literal has type “array of *n*
|
| 1086 |
+
`const char16_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below;
|
| 1087 |
+
each successive element of the array has the value of the corresponding
|
| 1088 |
+
code unit of the UTF-16 encoding of the string.
|
| 1089 |
|
| 1090 |
+
[*Note 3*: A single *c-char* may produce more than one `char16_t`
|
| 1091 |
+
character in the form of surrogate pairs. A surrogate pair is a
|
| 1092 |
+
representation for a single code point as a sequence of two 16-bit code
|
| 1093 |
+
units. — *end note*]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 1094 |
|
| 1095 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `U`, such as `U"asdf"`, is a *UTF-32
|
| 1096 |
+
string literal*. A UTF-32 string literal has type “array of *n*
|
| 1097 |
+
`const char32_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below;
|
| 1098 |
+
each successive element of the array has the value of the corresponding
|
| 1099 |
+
code unit of the UTF-32 encoding of the string.
|
| 1100 |
|
| 1101 |
A *string-literal* that begins with `L`, such as `L"asdf"`, is a *wide
|
| 1102 |
string literal*. A wide string literal has type “array of *n* `const
|
| 1103 |
wchar_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below; it is
|
| 1104 |
initialized with the given characters.
|
| 1105 |
|
| 1106 |
+
In translation phase 6 [[lex.phases]], adjacent *string-literal*s are
|
| 1107 |
concatenated. If both *string-literal*s have the same *encoding-prefix*,
|
| 1108 |
+
the resulting concatenated *string-literal* has that *encoding-prefix*.
|
| 1109 |
+
If one *string-literal* has no *encoding-prefix*, it is treated as a
|
| 1110 |
*string-literal* of the same *encoding-prefix* as the other operand. If
|
| 1111 |
a UTF-8 string literal token is adjacent to a wide string literal token,
|
| 1112 |
the program is ill-formed. Any other concatenations are
|
| 1113 |
conditionally-supported with *implementation-defined* behavior.
|
| 1114 |
|
| 1115 |
+
[*Note 4*: This concatenation is an interpretation, not a conversion.
|
| 1116 |
Because the interpretation happens in translation phase 6 (after each
|
| 1117 |
+
character from a *string-literal* has been translated into a value from
|
| 1118 |
the appropriate character set), a *string-literal*’s initial rawness has
|
| 1119 |
no effect on the interpretation or well-formedness of the
|
| 1120 |
concatenation. — *end note*]
|
| 1121 |
|
| 1122 |

[[lex.string.concat]] has some examples of valid concatenations.

After any necessary concatenation, in translation phase 7
|
| 1148 |
+
[[lex.phases]], `'\0'` is appended to every *string-literal* so that
|
| 1149 |
programs that scan a string can find its end.
|
| 1150 |
|
| 1151 |
Escape sequences and *universal-character-name*s in non-raw string
|
| 1152 |
+
literals have the same meaning as in *character-literal*s [[lex.ccon]],
|
| 1153 |
except that the single quote `'` is representable either by itself or by
|
| 1154 |
the escape sequence `\'`, and the double quote `"` shall be preceded by
|
| 1155 |
+
a `\`, and except that a *universal-character-name* in a UTF-16 string
|
| 1156 |
+
literal may yield a surrogate pair. In a narrow string literal, a
|
| 1157 |
+
*universal-character-name* may map to more than one `char` or `char8_t`
|
| 1158 |
+
element due to *multibyte encoding*. The size of a `char32_t` or wide
|
| 1159 |
+
string literal is the total number of escape sequences,
|
| 1160 |
+
*universal-character-name*s, and other characters, plus one for the
|
| 1161 |
+
terminating `U'\0'` or `L'\0'`. The size of a UTF-16 string literal is
|
| 1162 |
+
the total number of escape sequences, *universal-character-name*s, and
|
| 1163 |
+
other characters, plus one for each character requiring a surrogate
|
| 1164 |
+
pair, plus one for the terminating `u'\0'`.
|
| 1165 |
|
| 1166 |
+
[*Note 5*: The size of a `char16_t` string literal is the number of
|
| 1167 |
code units, not the number of characters. — *end note*]
|
| 1168 |
|
| 1169 |

[*Note 6*: Any *universal-character-name*s are required to correspond
|
| 1170 |
+
to a code point in the range [0, D800) or [E000, 10FFFF] (hexadecimal)
|
| 1171 |

[[lex.charset]]. — *end note*]
|
| 1172 |

The size of a narrow string literal is the total number of escape

sequences and other characters, plus at least one for the multibyte

encoding of each *universal-character-name*, plus one for the

Evaluating a *string-literal* results in a string literal object with
|
| 1179 |
static storage duration, initialized from the given characters as
|
| 1180 |
+
specified above. Whether all *string-literal*s are distinct (that is,
|
| 1181 |
+
are stored in nonoverlapping objects) and whether successive evaluations
|
| 1182 |
+
of a *string-literal* yield the same or a different object is
|
| 1183 |
+
unspecified.
|

`std::nullptr_t`.

[*Note 1*: `std::nullptr_t` is a distinct type that is neither a

A *user-defined-literal* is treated as a call to a literal operator or

“digraph” (token consisting of two characters) is not perfectly

descriptive, since one of the alternative *preprocessing-token*s is
|
| 1481 |
`%:%:` and of course several primary tokens contain two characters.
|
| 1482 |
Nonetheless, those alternative tokens that aren’t lexical keywords
|
| 1483 |
are colloquially known as “digraphs”.

[^7]: Thus the “stringized” values [[cpp.stringize]] of `[` and `<:`

will be different, maintaining the source spelling, but the tokens
|
| 1487 |
can otherwise be freely interchanged.

on significant characters for external identifiers. In C++, upper-

including external identifiers.

tokens that are called “constants” in ISO C.

[^12]: They are intended for character sets where a character does not
