There are several places where we need to recover the rule from an
item, let's factor that into item_rule. We also want to print items
in a nice way: we do it when generating the *output file, but it is
also useful in debug messages.
* src/gram.h, src/gram.c (item_rule, item_print): New.
* src/print.c (print_core): Use them.
* src/state.h, src/state.c: Propagate constness.
The memory allocated by 'closure' (and some data such as 'fderives')
is used to computed a state's full itemset from its core. This is
needed during the construction of the LR(0) automaton, and the memory
is reclaimed immediately afterwards.
Unfortunately the reports (graph, text, xml) also need this
information when describing the states with their full itemsets. As a
consequence the memory was allocated again, fderives computed again
too, and more --trace reports are generated which only duplicate what
was already reported.
Stop that. It does mean that we release the memory later (hence the
peak memory usage is higher now), but I don't think that's a problem
today.
* src/lr0.c (generate_states): Don't call closure_free.
* src/state.c (states_free): Do it here.
(for symmetry with closure_new which is called in generate_states).
* src/print-graph.c, src/print-xml.c, src/print.c: You can now expect
the closure module to be functional.
This is more consistent with the other files.
* closure.h, closure.c (new_closure, free_closure): Rename as...
(closure_new, closure_free): this.
Adjust dependencies.
This will make it easier to add new elements (that might already be
part of shift_symbol) without having to worry about the size of
shift_symbol (which is currently a fixed size vector).
I could not measure any significant differences in performances in the
generation of LR(0) automaton (benched on gramamrs of Ruby, C, and C++).
* src/lr0.c (shift_symbol): Make it a bitset.
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.
* src/symtab.h (status): Rename as...
(declaration_status): this, to avoid colliding with status, the
argument of 'usage'.
'status' seems a tad too general to be used only here.
* 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
* src/gram.c (grammar_dump): Print the effective number first instead
of last. And fix it (remove the incorrect "+1").
Use t/f for Booleans.
* src/reduce.c: When asked, always print the reduced grammar, even if
there was nothing useless.
* tests/sets.at (Reduced Grammar): Check that.
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.
After all, this is clearly harmless.
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_define_insert): Let equal
definitions of a %define variable be only a warning.
Adjust test cases.
Don't repeat the name of the warning in the sub messages. E.g.,
remove the second "[-Wother]" in the following message
foo.y:2.1-27: warning: %define variable 'parse.error' redefined [-Wother]
%define parse.error verbose
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:1.1-27: previous definition [-Wother]
%define parse.error verbose
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* src/complain.c (error_message): Don't print the warning type when
it's indented.
Adjust test cases.
Some reported by syntax-check.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add fixits.cc.
* src/muscle-tab.c: Don't cast for free.
* src/files.c: Reduce scopes.
* cfg.mk: We need the cast for free in muscle_percent_define_insert.
"handle_" is the prefix used in scan-code.l for instance.
* src/parse-gram.y (do_error_verbose, do_name_prefix, do_require)
(do_skeleton, do_yacc):
Rename as...
(handle_error_verbose, handle_name_prefix, handle_require)
(handle_skeleton, handle_yacc):
these.
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.
For instance on:
%fixed-output_files
%fixed-output-files
%yacc

* src/location.h, src/location.c (location_empty): New.
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (duplicate_directive): New.
* src/getargs.h, src/getargs.c (yacc_flag): Instead of a Boolean, be
the location of the definition.
Update dependencies.
* src/scan-gram.l (%yacc, %fixed-output-files): Move the handling of
its warnings to...
* src/parse-gram.y (do_yacc): This new function.
* tests/input.at (Deprecated Directives): Adjust expectations.
* src/fixits.h, src/fixits.c (fixits_empty): New.
* src/complain.c (deprecated_directive): Register the Wdeprecated
fixits only if -Wdeprecated was enabled, so that we don't apply
updates if the user didn't ask for them.
* src/main.c (main): If there were fixits, issue a warning suggesting
running with --update.
Free uniqstrs after the fixits, since the latter use the former.
* tests/headers.at, tests/input.at: Update expectations.
* src/fixits.c (fixits_run): If erase the content of a line, also
erase the following \n.
* tests/input.at (Deprecated directives): Update expectations.
Avoid duplicate warnings about %error-verbose, once for deprecation,
another for duplicate. Keep only the duplicate warning for the second
occurrence of %error-verbose.
This will help removal fixits.
* src/scan-gram.l (%error-verbose): Return as a PERCENT_ERROR_VERBOSE
token.
* src/parse-gram.y (do_error_verbose): New.
Use it.
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_variable_update): Handle pseudo
variables such as %error-verbose.
Currently, on
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
%%
exp:;
we issue:
foo.y:1.9-25: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:2.9-25: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:2.9-25: error: %define variable 'api.parser.class' redefined
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:1.9-25: previous definition
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's get rid of the second warning about the deprecated variable
parser_class_name. This is noise, but it will also be a problem with
fixits for removing duplicates, as we will first generate the update,
and then it's too late to remove it: fixits do not edit the result of
previous fixits.
So generate this instead:
foo.y:1.1-34: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.parser.class {Parser}' [-Wdeprecated]
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:2.1-34: error: %define variable 'api.parser.class' redefined
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
foo.y:1.1-34: previous definition
%define parser_class_name "Parser"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_variable_update): Pass the warning
to the caller, instead of issuing it.
(muscle_percent_define_insert): Issue this warning only if we don't
have to complain about a duplicate definition.
* tests/input.at: Adjust expectations.
* src/parse-gram.y: Use the location of the whole definition to record
the location of a %define variable, instead of just the name of the
variable.
Adjust tests.
Introduce proper support for fixits, instead of just printing them on
demand.
* bootstrap.conf: We need gnulib's xlists.
* src/fixits.h, src/fixits.c: New.
* src/complain.c (deprecated_directive): Use fixits_register.
* src/main.c (main): Use fixits_free.
Currently the diagnostics for %name-prefix are not precise enough. In
particular, they does not show that braces must be used instead of
quotes.
Before:
foo.y:3.1-14: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.prefix' [-Wdeprecated]
%name-prefix = "foo"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After:
foo.y:3.1-20: warning: deprecated directive, use '%define api.prefix {foo}' [-Wdeprecated]
%name-prefix = "foo"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To do this we need the value passed to %name-prefix, so move the
warning from the scanner to the parser.
Accuracy will be very important for the forthcoming changes.
* src/parse-gram.y (do_name_prefix): New.
(PERCENT_NAME_PREFIX): Have a semantic value: the raw source, with
possibly underscores, equal sign, and spaces. This is used to provide
a more accurate message. It does not take comments into account,
but...
* src/scan-gram.l (%name-prefix): Delegate the warnings to the parser.
* tests/headers.at, tests/input.at: Adjust expectations.
