The name "defines" is incorrect, the generated file contains far more
than just #defines.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (-H, --header): New option.
With optional argument, just like --defines, --xml, etc.
(defines_flag): Rename as...
(header_flag): this.
Adjust dependencies.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4, data/skeletons/c.m4, data/skeletons/glr.c,

* data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Adjust.
* examples, doc/bison.texi: Adjust.
* tests/headers.at, tests/local.at, tests/output.at: Convert most
tests from using --defines to using --header.
Currently we use both names. Let's stick to the short one.
* src/AnnotationList.c, src/conflicts.c, src/counterexample.c,
* src/getargs.c, src/getargs.h, src/graphviz.c, src/ielr.c,

s/lookahead_token/lookahead/gi.
And let --report=all include the counterexamples.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (report_cex): New.
* src/main.c: Compute counterexamples when -rcex is specified.
* src/print.c: Include the counterexamples when -rcex is specified.
* tests/conflicts.at, tests/existing.at, tests/local.at: Adjust.
Teaches bison about a new command line option, --file-prefix-map OLD=NEW
(based on the -ffile-prefix-map option from GCC) which causes it to
replace and file path of OLD in the text of the output file with NEW,
mainly for header guards and comments. The primary use of this is to
make builds reproducible with different input paths, and in particular
the debugging information produced when the source code is compiled. For
example, a distro may know that the bison source code will be located at
"/usr/src/bison" and thus can generate bison files that are reproducible
with the following command:
bison --output=/build/bison/parse.c -d --file-prefix-map=/build/bison/=/usr/src/bison/ parse.y
Importantly, this will change the header guards and #line directives
from:
#ifndef YY_BUILD_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/build/bison/parse.h"
to
#ifndef YY_USR_SRC_BISON_PARSE_H
#line 100 "/usr/src/bison/parse.h"
which is reproducible.

Let --trace=m4-early dump all the logs from the start (as --trace=m4
used to do), and have --trace=m4 now start traces only when actually
working of the user's grammar.
Can make a big difference in the case of small inputs. E.g.
$ bison -S tests/testsuite.dir/001/input.m4 tests/testsuite.dir/001/input.y --trace=m4 |& wc

Reported by Paul Eggert.
* src/getargs.c: We don't need it anyway, since we use _Noreturn.
* data/skeletons/c.m4: While at it, update the definition of _Noreturn
stolen from gnulib.
* gnulib: Update.
* bootstrap.conf: Use attribute.
* src/system.h: Remove macros for attributes.
Adjust dependencies.
* src/scan-gram.l (DEPRECATED): Rename as...
(DEPRECATED_DIRECTIVE): this, to avoid the clash with the DEPRECATED macro.
We have too many global variables, adding structure would help. For a
start, let's hide some of the variables closer to their usage.
* src/getargs.c, src/files.h (current_file): Move to...
* src/scan-gram.c: here.
* src/scan-gram.h (gram_in, gram__flex_debug): Remove, make them
private to the scanner.
* src/reader.h, src/reader.c (reader): Take a grammar file as argument.
Move the handling of scanner variables to...
* src/scan-gram.l (gram_scanner_open, gram_scanner_close): here.
(gram_scanner_initialize): Remove, replaced by gram_scanner_open.
* src/main.c: Adjust.
See the previous commit. This option should be removed, -o suffices.
* src/getargs.c (FIXED_OUTPUT_FILES): New.
Add support for it.
(getargs): Define loc, and use it.
This is safer when we need to pass a pointer to a location.
Years ago we moved from 'look-ahead' to 'lookahead', and that alias
was kept for backward compatibility. But now that we use argmatch to
generate the documentation, that value clutters the doc.
* src/getargs.c (argmatch_report_args): Remove the
--report=look-aheads alias.
The doc says that -Dfoo=bar is the same as %define foo "bar". It is
not: the quotes are not added (and it makes a difference).
* doc/bison.texi (Tuning the Parser): Fix the definition of -D/-F
* src/getargs.c (usage): Likewise.
Let's clarify --help: use clearer "section" names, as in the doc.
Move --yacc to where it belongs.
* src/getargs.c (usage): Rename "Parser" as "Tuning the Parser", as in
the doc.
Rename "Output" as "Output Files"
Move --yacc to "Tuning the Parser".
* doc/bison.texi: Likewise.
It can now generate the usage message.
* src/complain.h (feature_fixit_parsable): Rename as...
(feature_fixit): this, for column economy.
Adjust dependencies.
(warning_usage): New.
Use it.
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c, src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c:
Use ARGMATCH_DEFINE_GROUP instead of the older interface.
Sadly enough, AFAIK, there were never answers to the "More user
feedback will help to stabilize it" sentences. Remove them.
* src/getargs.c: IELR, canonical LR and XML output are here to stay,
and they are no more experimental than some other features.
* doc/bison.texi: Likewise.
Also remove "experimental" warning for Java, LAC, LR tuning options,
and named references.
It is more consistent with --color=html, --color=test, etc.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (style_debug): Rename as...
(color_debug): this.
(getargs_colors): Rename --style=debug as --color=debug.
Adjust dependencies.
This is meant for developers, not end users, that's why I attached it
to --trace.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (trace_locations): New.
* src/location.c (location_print): Use it.
Single point locations (equal boundaries) are troublesome, and we were
incorrectly ending the style in their case. Which results in an abort
in libtextstyle.
There is also a confusion between columns as displayed on the
screen (which take into account multibyte characters and tabulations),
and the number of bytes. Counting the screen-column
incrementally (character by character) is uneasy (because of multibyte
characters), and I don't want to maintain a buffer of the current line
when displaying the diagnostic. So I believe the simplest solution is
to track the byte number in addition to the screen column.
* src/location.h, src/location.c (boundary): Add the byte-column.
Adjust dependencies.
* src/getargs.c, src/scan-gram.l: Adjust.
* tests/diagnostics.at: Check zero-width locations.
Enable checking of styles even when libtextstyle is not installed.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (style_debug): New.
(getargs_colors): Set it when --style=debug.
* src/complain.c (begin_use_class, end_use_class): Use it.
* tests/diagnostics.at: New.
Bruno Haible just added a default implementation of libtextstyle's
interface when the library is not available.

* gnulib: Update.
* bootstrap.conf: Replace libtextstyle with libtextstyle-optional.
* src/complain.c, src/getargs.c: Remove now useless cpp guards.
The variable spec_defines_file denotes the name of the generated
header. Its name is derived from --defines/%defines, whose name in
turn is derived from the fact that the header, in Yacc, contained the
Not only does the header now contain a lot more than just the token
definitions, but we no longer even generate macros, but an enum...
Let's modernize our vocabulary.
* src/files.h, src/files.c (spec_defines_file): Rename as...
(spec_header_file): this.
When debugging Bison itself, this is very handy, especially when
tweaking the frontend badly enough to break the backends. It can also
be used to check a grammar.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (feature_syntax_only): New.
(feature_args, feature_types): Adjust.
* src/main.c (main): Use it.
* maint:
maint: post-release administrivia
version 3.3.1
yacc: issue warnings, not errors, for Bison extensions
style: formatting changes in NEWS and complain.c
tests: don't depend on the user's definition of SHELL
It is inconvenient that we also generate the output files when we
update the grammar file, and it's somewhat unexpected. Let's not do
that.
* src/main.c (main): Skip generation when --update is passed.
* src/getargs.c (usage): Update the help message.
* doc/bison.texi (Bison Options): Likewise.
* tests/input.at: Check that we don't generate the output.
We should use -ffixit and --update to clean files with duplicate
directives. And we should complain only once about duplicate obsolete
directives: keep only the "duplicate" warning. Let's start with %yacc.

%fixed-output-files
%yacc
