     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.
