48 ///
49 /// This parser is a class rather than a function because we need to support
50 /// callbacks to perform the initialization of the config file schema.  The
51 /// configuration files always start with a call to syntax(), which define the
52 /// particular version of the schema being used.  Depending on such version, the
53 /// layout of the internal tree representation needs to be different.
54 ///
55 /// A parser implementation must provide a setup() method to set up the
56 /// configuration schema based on the particular combination of syntax format
57 /// and version specified on the file.
58 ///
59 /// Parser objects are not supposed to be reused, and specific trees are not
60 /// supposed to be passed to multiple parsers (even if sequentially).  Doing so
61 /// will cause all kinds of inconsistencies in the managed tree itself or in the
62 /// Lua state.
