Remarks
The design pattern of Sentence and JsonObject are one-one mapping.
JSON value type convention: Prefer base types (double, int) over string for numeric values in JsonObject. This applies to both parsing syntaxes and logic syntaxes. Strings should only be used when the value is genuinely textual (e.g., macro variable references like "#1", "Q2", coordinate IDs like "G54") or when the value cannot be parsed to a number. Use FloatTagValueSyntax, IntegerTagValueSyntax, or FloatParamPrefixes / IntParamPrefixes to store typed values at parse time.
Constructors
SyntaxPiece(Sentence, JsonObject, int)
Creates a piece binding sentence to jsonObject with its execution-order sentenceIndex.
public SyntaxPiece(Sentence sentence, JsonObject jsonObject, int sentenceIndex)
Parameters
sentenceSentencejsonObjectJsonObjectsentenceIndexint
Properties
JsonObject
Structured parse result built by syntax passes.
public JsonObject JsonObject { get; set; }
Property Value
Sentence
Indexed source line and block text for this piece.
public Sentence Sentence { get; set; }
Property Value
SentenceIndex
0-based, session-globally unique ordinal in NC execution order.
Stamped at piece construction time by
GetSyntaxPieces(ISegmenter, List<INcDependency>, IEnumerable<IndexedFileLine>, int, NcDiagnosticProgress, CancellationToken) from the session's
SentenceIndexCounterDependency:
each piece allocates the next counter value as the lazy pipeline
materializes it, so values are strictly increasing along the executed
stream — subprogram / macro bodies inlined by
SubProgramCallSyntax and friends interleave correctly between
host blocks, including nested calls. Useful as a cross-process
alignment key (messages, ClStripPos, MachiningStep) — unlike the
(FileIndex, LineIndex) source order, it reflects execution order.
Values are NOT contiguous per file: eager label scans
(LabelScanUtil / RewindToLine) number the whole
re-segmented file and discard the pre-label prefix, leaving gaps.
Never negative — -1 stays reserved as the "not in pipeline"
sentinel on downstream carriers. When the counter dependency is
absent (legacy XML preset), numbering falls back to the caller's
contiguous begin-index sequence, which can double-book across
inline boundaries.
Required at construction: the index is identity, not optional metadata. Read-only after construction; the pipeline guarantees one stamping per piece at the wrapping chokepoint.
