We have failures on Flex output, which are probably related to an old
release. Let's check.
In file included from src/scan-code-c.c:3:
src/scan-code.c:2198:21: error: empty paragraph passed to '@param' command

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^
* .travis.yml: here.
Running all these tests might be overkill: it is very long, and don't
need full portability checks. Besides, some tests under Valgrind are
too slow and get killed by the CI (timeout of 10min without output).
* .travis.yml: here.
We have some maintainer-check-foo and some maintainer-foo-check. Keep
only the former.
* tests/local.mk (maintainer-push-check, maintainer-xml-check)
(maintainer-release-check): Rename as...
(maintainer-check-push, maintainer-check-xml)
(maintainer-check-release): these.
Most of our variables for C++ flags are named FOO_CXXFLAGS, not
CXXFLAGS_FOO.
* configure.ac, tests/atlocal.in, tests/calc.at
(NO_EXCEPTIONS_CXXFLAGS): Rename as...
(CXXFLAGS_NO_EXCEPTIONS): this.
Clang++ issues warnings when it's used to compile C. This make target
is precisely checking whether we can do that.
* configure.ac (NO_DEPRECATED_CXXFLAGS): New.
* tests/atlocal.in: Use it.
This completes 2d7e743802.
Some shells don't grok "local var=`cmd`" very well: they need the rhs
to be quoted.
./examples/test: 72: local: you.,: bad variable name
FAIL examples/variant.test (exit status: 2)
Reported by Étienne Renault.
* examples/test (run): Quote the values in 'local' assignments.
With GCC7 we have warnings (false positive):
x8.c: In function 'x8_parse':
x8.c:1233:16: error: 'yylval' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
yylval = *yypushed_val;

* tests/local.at (AT_PUSH_IF): New.
(AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Pop it, and pop AT_PURE_IF.
* tests/headers.at (Several parsers, Several parsers): Disable these
warnings when in push parser.
Currently, in glr.cc, we emit the definitions of basic_symbol and
symbol_type, although there are not used.
* data/c++.m4 (b4_public_types_declare): Extract these definitions from
here, and move them...
(b4_symbol_type_declare): here.
(b4_public_types_declare): Also remove the definition of the symbol
constructors.
* data/lalr1.cc (b4_shared_declarations): Adjust: call
b4_symbol_type_declare and b4_symbol_constructor_declare.
Some shells don't grok `local var=$val` very well: they need the rhs
to be quoted.
./examples/test: 66: local: you.,: bad variable name
FAIL examples/variant.test (exit status: 2)
Reported by Étienne Renault.
* examples/test (run): Quote the values in 'local' assignments.
The header generated for variants with assertions but without
locations, is not self-contained. Prepare a check for this.
* tests/headers.at (Sane headers): New, extracted from...
(Several parsers): here.
Benchmarks show that it is more efficient to keep this copy
constructor, rather than forcing the use of the default constructor
and then assignment.
This reverts commit 7ab25ad020.
Currently, in bison's C++ parser template (`lalr.cc`), the `variant<>`
struct's `build()` method uses placement-new in the form `new (...) T`
to initialize a variant type. However, for POD variant types, this
will leave the memory space uninitialized. If we subsequently tries
to `::move` into a variant object in such state, the call can trigger
clang's undefined behavior sanitizer due to accessing the
uninitialized memory.

* data/variant.hh (build): Always initialize the stored value.
Signed-off-by: Akim Demaille <akim@lrde.epita.fr>
* doc/bison.texi (A Complete C++ Example): Prefer throw exceptions
from the scanner.
Show the invalid characters.
Since the scanner sends exceptions, it no longer needs to report
errors, so we can get rid of the driver's routine to report error,
do it in yyerror.
Use @group/@end group to improve rendering.
This example uses the calcxx_ prefix for each class. That's uselessly
heavy.
* doc/bison.texi (A Complete C++ Example): Simplify the class names.
Since now 'driver' denotes the class, use 'drv' for the values.
Formatting changes.
On these tests, at -O2 and above, GCC 8 complains that yylval may be
uninitialized. But it seems wrong: it is initialized. Rather than
turning off the warning in the skeleton (hence possibility hiding
relevant warnings of user parsers), let's turn it off in the tests
only.
163: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: FAILED (conflicts.at:625)
165: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: lr.default-reduction=consistent FAILED (conflicts.at:635)
166: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: lr.default-reduction=accepting FAILED (conflicts.at:641)
167: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: lr.type=canonical-lr FAILED (conflicts.at:645)
168: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: parse.lac=full FAILED (conflicts.at:650)
169: parse.error=verbose and consistent errors: parse.lac=full lr.default-reduction=accepting FAILED (conflicts.at:655)
We get:
input.c: In function 'yyparse':
input.c:980:9: error: 'yylval' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
YYSTYPE yylval YY_INITIAL_VALUE (= yyval_default);

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2018-08/msg00063.html.
* tests/conflicts.at (AT_CONSISTENT_ERRORS_CHECK): Disable
-Wmaybe-uninitialized.
Suggested by Rici Lake.

* doc/bison.texi: Complete description of the first node in the main
@menu.
(Push Decl): Remove the 'experimental' warnings about push parser.
Clarify that the push parser object can be reused in several parses.

* data/lalr1.cc (YY_EXCEPTIONS): New.
Use it to disable try/catch clauses.
* doc/bison.texi (C++ Parser Interface): Document it.
* configure.ac (CXXFLAGS_NO_EXCEPTIONS): New.
* tests/atlocal.in: Receive it.
* tests/local.at (AT_FULL_COMPILE, AT_LANG_COMPILE):
Accept a new argument, extra compiler flags.
* tests/calc.at: Run the C++ calculator with exception support disabled.
Currently the examples are too dense, let's put empty lines where
'#line' would be issued. And also remove some spurious empty
lines (remains from @group, @end group, etc.).
* examples/extexi: Do that.
* examples/local.mk (extexiFLAGS): Rename as...
(EXTEXIFLAGS): this.
* examples/mfcalc/local.mk, examples/rpcalc/local.mk: Define the
programs in a more natural order, source, preproc, then linker.
* examples/test: Be ready to work on programs that are not in
a subdir.
* examples/variant.test: New.
* examples/local.mk: Use it.
* examples/variant.yy: Don't use 0 for nullptr.
Use a more natural output for a list of string.
Visual Studio issues a C4146 warning on '-static_cast<unsigned>(rhs)'.
The code is weird, probably to cope with INT_MIN. Let's go back to
using std::max (whose header is still included in position.hh...) like
originally, but with the needed casts.
Reported by 長田偉伸, and with help from Rici Lake.

Use std::max.
While here, get rid of a couple of useless inlines.

"Amusingly" enough, we have the same problem with %defines when the
parser file name has backslashes or quotes: we generate #includes with
an incorrect C string.
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_definitions): Escape properly the file
names before passing them to M4.
* data/bison.m4, data/lalr1.cc: Don't simply put the file name between
two quotes (that should have been strong enough a smell...), expect
the string to be properly quoted.
* tests/synclines.at: New tests to check this.
