** yyerror, yysymprint interface
|
||||
** %destructor
|
||||
I think we should document it as experimental, and allow its use in
|
||||
the next releases. But we also need to port it to GLR. What about
|
||||
lalr1.cc? Well, read what Hans reported, maybe we don't want
|
||||
%detructor. On the other hand, there is no reason not to provide it:
|
||||
users can avoid its use.
|
||||
|
||||
** $foo
|
||||
Have a look at the Lemon parser generator: instead of $1, $2 etc. they
|
||||
can name the values. This is much more pleasant. For instance:
|
||||
|
||||
exp (res): exp (a) '+' exp (b) { $res = $a + $b; };
|
||||
|
||||
I love this. I have been bitten too often by the removal of the
|
||||
symbol, and forgetting to shift all the $n to $n-1. If you are
|
||||
unlucky, it compiles...
|
||||
|
||||
** $-1
|
||||
We should find a means to provide an access to values deep in the
|
||||
stack. For instance, instead of
|
||||
|
||||
baz: qux { $$ = $<foo>-1 + $<bar>0 + $1; }
|
||||
|
||||
we should be able to have:
|
||||
|
||||
foo($foo) bar($bar) baz($bar): qux($qux) { $baz = $foo + $bar + $qux; }
|
||||
|
||||
Or something like this.

** yysymprint interface
|

It should be improved, in particular when using Bison features such as
|
||||
locations, and YYPARSE_PARAMS. For the time being, it is recommended
|

to #define yyerror and yyprint to steal internal variables...
