# Handlers are pluggable semantic parsers for YARD's code generation
# phase. They allow developers to control what information gets
# generated by YARD, giving them the ability to, for instance, document
# any Ruby DSLs that a customized framework may use. A good example
# of this would be the ability to document and generate meta data for
# the 'describe' declaration of the RSpec testing framework by simply
# adding a handler for such a keyword. Similarly, any Ruby API that
# takes advantage of class level declarations could add these to the
# documentation in a very explicit format by treating them as first-
# class objects in any outputted documentation.
#
# == Overview of a Typical Handler Scenario
#
# Generally, a handler class will declare a set of statements which
# it will handle using the {handles} class declaration. It will then
# implement the {#process} method to do the work. The processing would
# usually involve the manipulation of the {#namespace}, {#owner}
# {CodeObjects::Base code objects} or the creation of new ones, in
# which case they should be registered by {#register}, a method that
# sets some basic attributes for the new objects.
#
# Handlers are usually simple and take up to a page of code to process
# and register a new object or add new attributes to the current +namespace+.
#
# == Setting up a Handler for Use
#
# A Handler is automatically registered when it is subclassed from the
# base class. The only other thing that needs to be done is to specify
# which statement the handler will process. This is done with the +handles+
# declaration, taking either a {Parser::Ruby::Legacy::RubyToken}, {String} or `Regexp`.
# Here is a simple example which processes module statements.
#
# class MyModuleHandler < YARD::Handlers::Base
# handles TkMODULE
#
# def process
# # do something
# end
# end
#
# == Processing Handler Data
#
# The goal of a specific handler is really up to the developer, and as
# such there is no real guideline on how to process the data. However,
# it is important to know where the data is coming from to be able to use
# it.
#
# === +statement+ Attribute
#
# The +statement+ attribute pertains to the {Parser::Ruby::Legacy::Statement} object
# containing a set of tokens parsed in by the parser. This is the main set
# of data to be analyzed and processed. The comments attached to the statement
# can be accessed by the {Parser::Ruby::Legacy::Statement#comments} method, but generally
# the data to be processed will live in the +tokens+ attribute. This list
# can be converted to a +String+ using +#to_s+ to parse the data with
# regular expressions (or other text processing mechanisms), if needed.
#
# === +namespace+ Attribute
#
# The +namespace+ attribute is a {CodeObjects::NamespaceObject namespace object}
# which represents the current namespace that the parser is in. For instance:
#
# module SomeModule
# class MyClass
# def mymethod; end
# end
# end
#
# If a handler was to parse the 'class MyClass' statement, it would
# be necessary to know that it belonged inside the SomeModule module.
# This is the value that +namespace+ would return when processing such
# a statement. If the class was then entered and another handler was
# called on the method, the +namespace+ would be set to the 'MyClass'
# code object.
#
# === +owner+ Attribute
#
# The +owner+ attribute is similar to the +namespace+ attribute in that
# it also follows the scope of the code during parsing. However, a namespace
# object is loosely defined as a module or class and YARD has the ability
# to parse beyond module and class blocks (inside methods, for instance),
# so the +owner+ attribute would not be limited to modules and classes.
#
# To put this into context, the example from above will be used. If a method
# handler was added to the mix and decided to parse inside the method body,
# the +owner+ would be set to the method object but the namespace would remain
# set to the class. This would allow the developer to process any method
# definitions set inside a method (def x; def y; 2 end end) by adding them
# to the correct namespace (the class, not the method).
#
# In summary, the distinction between +namespace+ and +owner+ can be thought
# of as the difference between first-class Ruby objects (namespaces) and
# second-class Ruby objects (methods).
#
# === +visibility+ and +scope+ Attributes
#
# Mainly needed for parsing methods, the +visibility+ and +scope+ attributes
# refer to the public/protected/private and class/instance values (respectively)
# of the current parsing position.
#
# == Parsing Blocks in Statements
#
# In addition to parsing a statement and creating new objects, some
# handlers may wish to continue parsing the code inside the statement's
# block (if there is one). In this context, a block means the inside
# of any statement, be it class definition, module definition, if
# statement or classic 'Ruby block'.
#
# For example, a class statement would be "class MyClass" and the block
# would be a list of statements including the method definitions inside
# the class. For a class handler, the programmer would execute the
# {#parse_block} method to continue parsing code inside the block, with
# the +namespace+ now pointing to the class object the handler created.
#
# YARD has the ability to continue into any block: class, module, method,
# even if statements. For this reason, the block parsing method must be
# invoked explicitly out of efficiency sake.
#
