Move eat_trivia in sink

[axelkar]

Think about the following file in an imaginary language, where the grammar only matches an identifier and nothing else:

    foo

(No trailing newline, token list after lexing: [Whitespace, Ident])

The grammar module uses Source::next_token(), which skips trivia first and then returns the non-trivia token SyntaxKind::Ident.
Before the sink step, the event list looks like this: [Event::AddToken].
When the sink receives the AddToken event, it pops off the token at index 0 from the token list, which happens to be SyntaxKind::Whitespace. After that there is no trivia to eat (Sink::eat_trivia) and there are no more events. In the end, the CST doesn't even contain the Ident token.

I think that moving eat_trivia to before the match statement works. Even better is that it'd be after StartNode, but before AddToken so comments are added into the node.

You’re completely right, I missed that!

As you might be able to tell I’ve stopped working on the tutorial series, so I think I would rather keep everything as-is as a kind of historical archive, rather than a maintained project. If I were to fix things like this, I’d have to write up new posts explaining the issue and the fix.

I hope you understand :)

Yeah it's all good! Thank you very much for the series! It really helped me understand rust-analyzer's parsing architecture.
