pstate_clear is lacking a prototype.
Reported by Ryan
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-05/msg00101.html
Besides, none of the C examples were compiled with the warning flags.
* configure.ac (warn_c): Add -Wmissing-prototypes.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (pstate_clear): Make it static.
* examples/local.mk (TEST_CFLAGS): New.

* examples/c/pushcalc/local.mk, examples/c/reccalc/local.mk,
* examples/c/rpcalc/local.mk:
Use it.
GCC's warn_unused_result is not silenced by a cast to void, so we have
to "use" scanf's result.

Flex generated code produces too many warnings, including things such
as, with ICC:
examples/c/lexcalc/scan.c(1088): error #1682: implicit conversion
of a 64-bit integral type to a smaller integral type (potential portability problem)
2259 YY_INPUT( (&YY_CURRENT_BUFFER_LVALUE->yy_ch_buf[number_to_move]),
2260 ^

I am tired of trying to fix Flex's output. The project does not seem
maintained. We ought to avoid it. So, for the time being, don't try
to enable warnings with Flex.
* examples/c/bistromathic/parse.y, examples/c/reccalc/scan.l: Fix
warnings.
* doc/bison.texi: Discard scanf's return value to defeat
-Werror=unused-result.
Because some of our examples use
%C%_reccalc_SOURCES = %D%/parse.y
Automake ships parse.y and parse.c, and possibly parse.h when it
"understands" that there is one. This is not what we want: ship only
parser.y. Yet we still want to use Automake to compile the sources
from parser.y. The easiest seems to use
nodist_%C%_reccalc_SOURCES = %D%/parse.y
together with
dist_reccalc_DATA = %D%/parse.y %D%/scan.l %D%/Makefile %D%/README.md
which guarantees that parse.y is indeed shipped.
* examples/c/calc/local.mk, examples/c/lexcalc/local.mk,
* examples/c/reccalc/local.mk: Always use nodist_*SOURCES for parsers,
let the dist_*_DATA rules do their job.
* examples/extexi: Since we issue #lines only at the beginning of
@example, leave empty line when removing content (such as @comment
lines), otherwise the lines that follow have incorrect source line
location. This leaves ugly empty lines, but they are removed when you
tidy the output for the end user: sequences of \n are mapped to at
most two sucessive \n.
Convert some of the READMEs to Markdown, which is now more common, and
nicely displayed in some git hosting services.
Add missing READMEs and Makefiles. Generate XML, HTML and Dot files. Be
sure to ship the test files. Complete CLEANFILES to remove all generated
files.

New files.
* examples/test (medir): Be robust to deeper directory nesting.
When we extract the examples from the documentation, %require
"@value{VERSION}" is replaced with the current version. If we change
the git branch, without changing the documentation, the generated
examples will %require a version of Bison that differs from the actual
version.
* examples/local.mk (extracted.stamp): Depend on doc/version.texi.
* examples/java/Calc.y: New, based on test 495: "Calculator
parse.error=verbose %locations".
* examples/java/Calc.test, examples/java/local.mk: New.
* configure.ac (ENABLE_JAVA): New.
* examples/test (prog): Be ready to run Java programs.
Currently, the examples are extracted on the user's side.
Unfortunately, that requires that the user has Perl, which is
otherwise not needed for Bison. Let's ship the examples instead.
The examples were handled this way so that we could depend on
configure flags: if --enable-gcc-warnings is passed, it is understood
as "I'm a maintainer", so the examples are generated with `#line`s.
Regular users should not see them, so they are now unconditionally
removed when rolling a tarball.

Now that distcheck no longer fails (see previous commit), let's
address the shortcomings.

* examples/variant-11.yy, examples/variant.yy: Don't generate
any of the auxiliary files (location.hh and the like).
Modern C++ (i.e., C++11 and later) introduced "move only" types: types such
as std::unique_ptr<T> that can never be duplicated. They must never be
copied (by assignments and constructors), they must be "moved". The
implementation of lalr1.cc used to copy symbols (including their semantic
values). This commit ensures that values are only moved in modern C++, yet
remain compatible with C++98/C++03.
Suggested by Frank Heckenbach, who provided a full implementation on
top of C++17's std::variant.
See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2018-03/msg00002.html,
and https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2018-04/msg00002.html.
Symbols (terminal/non terminal) are handled by several functions that used
to take const-refs, which resulted eventually in a copy pushed on the stack.
With modern C++ (C++11 and later) the callers must use std::move, and the
callees must take their arguments as rvalue refs (foo&&). In order to avoid
duplicating these functions to support both legacy C++ and modern C++, let's
introduce macros (YY_MOVE, YY_RVREF, etc.) that rely on copy-semantics for
C++98/03, and move-semantics for modern C++.
That's easy for inner types, when the parser's functions pass arguments to
each other. Functions facing the user (make_NUMBER, make_STRING, etc.)
should support both rvalue-refs (for instance to support move-only types:
make_INT (std::make_unique<int> (1))), and lvalue-refs (so that we can pass
a variable: make_INT (my_int)). To avoid the multiplication of the
signatures (there is also the location), let's take the argument by value.

This is based on what is recommended by both Scott Meyers, in 'Effective
C++', and Andrei Alexandrescu and Herb Sutter in 'C++ Coding Standards'.
Use a static_cast on void* rather than directly use a reinterpret_cast,
which can have nefarious effects on objects. However, even though following
this guideline is good practice in general, I am not quite sure how relevant
it is when applied to conversions from POD to objects. Actually, it might
very well be the opposite: isn't this exactly what reinterpret_cast is for?
What we really want *is* to transmit the memory map as a series of bytes,
which, if I am correct, falls into the kind of "low level" hack for which
this cast is meant.
In any case, this silences the warning, which will be greatly appreciated by
anyone using variants with a compiler supporting -fstrict-aliasing.
* data/variant.hh (as): Here.
* tests/c++.at (Exception safety, C++ Variant-based Symbols, Variants):
Don't use NO_STRICT_ALIAS_CXXFLAGS (revert commit ddb9db15), as type punning

definition.
* examples/local.mk (NO_STRICT_ALIAS_CXXFLAGS): Remove from AM_CXXFLAGS.
* doc/bison.texi: Don't mention type punning issues.
Bison uses "/usr/bin/perl" or "perl" in several places, and it does
not appear to be a problem. But, at least to make it simpler to
change PERL on the make command line, check for perl in configure.
* configure.ac (PERL): New.

Automake 1.11.3 is not safe enough for C++ parser.
* examples/calc++/calc++-parser.hh: Remove.
* examples/calc++/local.mk (examples/calc++/calc++-parser.stamp):
New.
examples: factor the extractions into a single step
extexi had to be run in the extraction directory. Now, it can be
given the files with expected output directory. This allows to
use $(*_extracted) variables (before we had to list again their
members, but limited to their base names). In turn, this also
allows fusing the extraction recipes into a single one.
Also, it is currently too hard (or requires too much duplication,
since Make wants all the occurrences of the files to be prefixed with
$(srcdir)/, which is something Automake cannot support for *_SOURCES)
to work in the source tree. So extract, and compile scanners and parsers
in the build tree.
* examples/extexi (basename): New.

* examples/calc++/test: As a consequence, always be verbose.
($prog): New.
(run): Use it.
Sort the tests in a more natural order (simplest first).
The directory was still using a local Makefile.am because it provides
"scoped" Make variables: these examples are not meant to use the same
CPPFLAGS etc. If we were to use the same -I set, we'd pick up
gnulib's stdio.h for instance, which we do not want for these simple
examples.
Yet, as a result, the dependencies are less accurate, there is code
duplication, etc. This is especially perceptible when trying to
extract more examples from the documentation, as will be done in
forthcoming changes.
In order to make the tuning of CPPFLAGS easier, discard the predefined
-I from Automake.
* examples/calc++/Makefile.am: Rename as...
* examples/calc++/local.mk: this.
Adjust the paths which are now rooted in top_srcdir/top_builddir.
Handle BISON_CXX_WORKS here, instead of the too crude previous
approach that completely discarded the whole directory.

Stay away from -Ilib.
