object --+ | ParserElement --+ | ParseElementEnhance --+ | Forward
Forward declaration of an expression to be defined later - used for recursive grammars, such as algebraic infix notation. When the expression is known, it is assigned to the Forward variable using the '<<' operator.
Note: take care when assigning to Forward not to overlook precedence of operators. Specifically, '|' has a lower precedence than '<<', so that:
fwdExpr << a | b | c
will actually be evaluated as:
(fwdExpr << a) | b | c
thereby leaving b and c out as parseable alternatives. It is recommended that you explicitly group the values inserted into the Forward:
fwdExpr << (a | b | c)

Method Details |
x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature
|
Disables the skipping of whitespace before matching the characters in the ParserElement's defined pattern. This is normally only used internally by the pyparsing module, but may be needed in some whitespace-sensitive grammars.
|
|
Check defined expressions for valid structure, check for infinite recursive definitions.
|
str(x)
|
Make a copy of this ParserElement. Useful for defining different parse actions for the same parsing pattern, using copies of the original parse element.
