Parse Trees and Scaled Decimal syntax

[g.cotelli]

Hi,
running some SmallLint rules I found something odd in parse tree building.

When using the "s" syntax for ScaledDecimals (125.1225s4) in some method, the built parse tree takes s4 as a message sent to 125.1225, generating false positive Small Lint rules failures (like message s4 not implemented).

To reproduce create a class: ScaleDecimalParseTreeCase and a method:

Code: Select all

ScaleDecimalParseTreeCase>>sample

   ^Array with: 522.12s4

and then inspect:

Code: Select all

ScaleDecimalParseTreeCase parseTreeFor: #sample

the generated parse tree has an RBMessageNode (with s4 as message) instead an RBLiteralValueNode with the full scaled decimal literal.

I'm using VA 8.0.2 GA with the Refactoring Browser features loaded.

Regards,
Gabriel

We added the 's' syntax for ScaledDecimal some time ago (somewhere in V6.0 - 6.0.3 timeframe), but the RBParser never got updated to account for this new syntax. I will work with the owner of the parser to get it updated.
