3. Pass - Groups

In the third pass <concept-passes> a stream of double-linked ~pyVHDLParser.Block.Block objects is read and grouped in another Python generator to group's. Groups are again a chain of double-linked objects of base-class ~pyVHDLParser.Groups.Group.

Condensed definition of class ~pyVHDLParser.Groups.Group:

@Export
class Group(metaclass=MetaGroup):
  __STATES__ = None

  _previousGroup : 'Group' =              None    #: Reference to the previous group.
  NextGroup :      'Group' =              None    #: Reference to the next group.
  InnerGroup :     'Group' =              None    #: Reference to the first inner group.
  _subGroups :     {MetaGroup: 'Group'} = {}      #: References to all inner groups by group type.

  StartBlock :     Block =                None    #: Reference to the first block in the scope of this group.
  EndBlock :       Block =                None    #: Reference to the last block in the scope of this group.
  MultiPart :      bool =                 False   #: True, if this group has multiple parts.
