// Parser categories
//
// Helper template classes to distinguish different types of
// parsers. The following categories are the most generic. More
// specific types may inherit from these. Each parser has a typedef
// parser_category_t that defines its category. By default, if one
// is not specified, it will inherit from the base parser class
// which typedefs its parser_category_t as plain_parser_category.
//
// - plain parser has nothing special
// - binary parser has subject a and b (e.g. alternative)
// - unary parser has single subject (e.g. kleene star)
// - action parser has an attached action parser

// parser_result metafunction
//
// Given a scanner type ScannerT and a parser type ParserT, the
// parser_result metafunction provides the actual result of the
// parser.
//
// Usage:
//
// typename parser_result<ParserT, ScannerT>::type
//

//
// parser class
//
// This class is a protocol base class for all parsers. This is
// essentially an interface contract. The parser class does not
// really know how to parse anything but instead relies on the
// template parameter DerivedT (which obviously is assumed to be a
// subclass) to do the actual parsing.
//
// Concrete sub-classes inheriting from parser must have a
// corresponding member function parse(...) compatible with the
// conceptual Interface:
//
// template <typename ScannerT>
// RT parse(ScannerT const& scan) const;
//
// where RT is the desired return type of the parser and ScannerT
// scan is the scanner (see scanner.hpp).
//
// Concrete sub-classes inheriting from parser in most cases need to
// have a nested meta-function result that returns the result type
// of the parser's parse member function, given a scanner type. The
// meta-function has the form:
//
// template <typename ScannerT>
// struct result
// {
// typedef RT type;
// };
//
// where RT is the desired return type of the parser. This is
// usually, but not always, dependent on the template parameter
// ScannerT. If a parser does not supply a result metafunction, a
// default is provided by the base parser class.
//
// The parser's derived() member function returns a reference to the
// parser as its derived object.
//
// An operator[] is provided. The operator returns a semantic action
// handler (see actions.hpp).
//
// Each parser has a typedef embed_t. This typedef specifies how a
// parser is embedded in a composite (see composite.hpp). By
// default, if one is not specified, the parser will be embedded by
// value. That is, a copy of the parser is placed as a member
// variable of the composite. Most parsers are embedded by value. In
// certain situations however, this is not desirable or possible.

// full: true when we have a full hit (i.e the parser
// consumed all the input.

// length: The number of characters consumed by the parser.
// This is valid only if we have a successful hit
