/**
@PageName parser
@PageTitle File parser
@PageCategory Base toolkits
@PageDesc This toolkit provides an easy way to parse complex text configuration files. It has two main advantages compared to a standard XML SAX parser:
	* The configuration file format is more human readable than XML
	* The parser knows some data types that it automatically converts to C variables (see <a href="parser_types.html">Standard data types</a>)
*/

/**
@PageName parser_format
@PageFather parser
@PageTitle The libtcod config file format
@FuncTitle Comments
@FuncDesc Your file can contain single line or multi-line comments :
<div class="code"><pre>// This is a single line comment
/<span>*</span>
   This is a
   multi-line comment
*<span>/</span>
</pre></div>
Multi-line comments can be nested :
<div class="code"><pre>/<span>*</span>
   This is a
   multi-line comment containing another
   /<span>*</span>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;multi-line
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;comment
   *<span>/</span>
*<span>/</span>
</pre></div>
The parser is not sensible to space characters, tabulations or carriage return except inside strings.

/**
@PageName parser_format
@FuncTitle Structures
@FuncDesc The libtcod config file format is basically a list of structures. A structure has a type, an optional name and contains properties. The type of the structure defines which properties are allowed / mandatory.
<div class="code"><pre>item_type "blade" {            // structure's type : 'item_type'. structure's name : 'blade'
	cost=300                   // an integer property
	weight=3.5                 // a float property
	deal_damage=true           // a boolean property
	damages="3d6+2"            // a dice property
	col="#FF0000"              // a color property, using #RRGGBB syntax
	damaged_color="128,96,96"  // another color property, using rrr,ggg,bbb syntax
	damage_type="slash"        // a string property
	description="This is a long"
	            "description." // a multi-line string property
	abstract                   // a flag (simplified boolean property)
        intList= [ 1,2,3 ]         // a list of int values
        floatList= [ 1.0,2,3.5 ]   // a list of float values
        stringList= [ "string1","string2","string3" ]         // a list of string values
}
</pre></div>
A structure can also contain other structures either of the same type, or structures of another type :
<div class="code"><pre>item_type "blade" {
	item_type "one-handed blades" {
		// the item_type "blade" contains another item_type named "one-handed blades"
	}
	item_type "two-handed blades" {
		// the item_type "blade" contains another item_type named "two-handed blades"
	}
	feature "damage" {
		// the item_type "blade" contains another structure, type "feature", name "damage"
	}
}
</pre></div>
Sometimes, you don't know the list of properties at compile-time. Fortunately, since libtcod 1.5.1, you can add auto-declaring properties in the file, using one of the type keywords :
<div class="code"><pre>item_type "blade" {
	bool deal_damage=true
	char character='D'
	int cost=300
	float weight=3.5
	string damage_type="slash"
	color col="#FF0000"
	dice damages="3d6+2"
	int[] intList= [ 1,2,3 ]
	float[] floatList= [ 1.0,2,3.5 ]
	string[] stringList= [ "string1","string2","string3" ]
}
</pre></div>
The properties declared with this syntax were not previously declared for the structure item_type. But since the type is specified, the parser won't reject them. Instead, it will add the property declaration to the structure dynamically (when it parses the file).
You can also dynamically create new structures and sub-structures with the struct keyword :
<div class="code"><pre>item_type "blade" {
    struct component {
	    string name="blade"
		float weight=1.0
	}
}
</div>
With this syntax, you don't need to declare the "component" structure at all in the parser. It will be dynamically registered as the file is parsed.
