[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] do not require lookahead in json-lexer.c if not nec


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] do not require lookahead in json-lexer.c if not necessary
Date: Fri, 21 May 2010 11:08:53 +0200

I also don't see this as a big problem in practice, except maybe
for a quit command.  However, WRT the complication of the lexer,
it is really not so bad.  The trick is to split

   lexer->state = json_lexer[IN_START][(uint8_t)ch];

in two phases, namely transitioning to IN_START and (only if
lookahead was used) doing another iteration of the loop.
