Problem reported by Andy Fiddaman in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2019-12/msg00021.html
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yy_reduce_print, yy_lac, yysyntax_error)
(yyreturn): If I might be a char, write a[+I] instead of a[I],
so that ‘gcc -Wchar-subscripts’ does not complain.
Another breakage revealed by vcsn.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (yytranslate_): Do not hard code "yy" and
"parser", both can be changed by the user.
Actually, since we are in the parser itself, there's really no need to
qualify the type.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (YYASSERT): Rename as...
(YY_ASSERT): this, for consistency with yacc.c, and also to emphasize
the fact that this is not for the end user (YY_ prefix).
* tests/glr-regression.at: Define parse.assert.
Now that we use small integral types, possibly unsigned (e.g.,
unsigned char), to store state numbers, using -1 to denote an empty
state (i.e., a state that stores no semantical value) is very
dangerous: it will be confused with state 255, which might be
non-empty.
Rather than allocating a larger range of state numbers to keep the
empty-state apart, let's use the number of a state known to store no
value. The initial state, numbered 0, seems to fit perfectly the job.

* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (empty_state): Be 0.
It is not used. And its implementation was wrong when api.token.raw
was defined, as it was still mapping to the external token numbers,
instead of the internal ones. Besides it was provided only when
api.token.constructor is defined, yet always declared.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (by_type::token): Remove, useless.

The cast is needed when yytranslate_'s argument type is token_type,
i.e., when api.token.constructor is defined.

It is because it is expected that when api.token.constructor is
defined, only symbol constructors will be used, that yytranslate_ then
takes a token_type. But it is wrong: we still allow literal
characters in this case, as demonstrated by test 373 for instance.
%define api.value.type variant
%define api.token.constructor
%token <std::pair<int, int>> '1' '2';
[...]
static yy::parser::symbol_type yylex ()
{
static char const input[] = "12";
int res = input[toknum++];
typedef yy::parser::symbol_type symbol;
if (res)
return symbol (res, std::make_pair (res - '0', res - '0' + 1));
else
return symbol (res);
}
So let yytranslate_ always take an int, which makes the cast truly
useless.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (yytranslate_): here.
The C++ implementation of LAC did not skip the $undefined token,
probably because it was not exposed. Expose it, and use clearer
names.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Don't define undef_token_ in yytranslate_,
but...
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (yy_undef_token_): here.
Use a more precise type to define yy_undef_token_ and yy_error_token_.
Unfortunately we move from a compile-time value defined via an enum to
a static const member. Eventually we should make it constexpr.
Make LAC implementation more alike yacc.c's one.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.d, data/skeletons/lalr1.java: Don't expose
yyuser_token_number_max_ and yyundef_token_. Do as in C++: scope them
into yytranslate_, and only when api.token.raw is not defined.
(yyterror_): Rename as...
(yy_error_token_): this.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.d (token_number_type): New.
Use it.
Can't be done in the Java backend, as Java does not have type aliases.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.d, data/skeletons/lalr1.java (yytoken_number_):
Remove, useless.
Was used in ancient C skeletons to support YYPRINT, long obsoleted by
%printer.
It is not used at all. We will remove it also from yacc.c, but
later (see TODO).
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java (yyerrcode_):
Remove.

* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (b4_yytranslate_define): Don't use yyeof_ as
if it had two different types.
It is used once against the input argument, which is the value
returned by yylex, which is an "external token number", typically an
int. It is also used as output type, an "internal symbol number".
It turns out that in both cases we mean "0", but let's keep yyeof_
only for the case "internal symbol number", i.e., _after_ conversion
by yytranslate.
This frees us from one cast.
The current code for yysyntax_error for %define parse.error verbose is
fishy (given that YYEMPTY is -2, invalid argument for yytname[]):
static int
yysyntax_error ([...])
{
YYPTRDIFF_T yysize0 = yytnamerr (YY_NULLPTR, yytname[yytoken]);
[...]
if (yytoken != YYEMPTY)
A nearby comment reports
The only way there can be no lookahead present (in yychar) is if
this state is a consistent state with a default action. Thus,
detecting the absence of a lookahead is sufficient to determine
that there is no unexpected or expected token to report. In that
case, just report a simple "syntax error".
So it _is_ possible to call yysyntax_error with yytoken == YYEMPTY,
albeit quite difficult when meaning to, so virtually impossible by
accident (after all, there was never a bug report about this).
I failed to produce a test case, but Joel E. Denny provided me with
one (added to the test suite below). The yacc.c skeleton fails on
this, and once fixed dies on a second problem. The glr.c skeleton was
also dying, but immediately of this second problem.
Indeed we were not allocating space for the error message's final \0.
This was hidden by the fact that we only had error messages with at
least an unexpected token displayed, so with at least one "%s" in the
format string, whose size (2) was included (incorrectly) in the final
size of the message (where the %s have been replaced by the actual
content).
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/yacc.c (yysyntax_error):
Do not invoke yytnamerr on YYEMPTY.
Clarify the computation of the length of the _final_ error message,
with the NUL terminator but without the '%s's.
* tests/conflicts.at (Syntax error in consistent error state):
New, contributed by Joel E. Denny.
Having a file named "exception" is risky: the compiler might use that
file in #include.

* tests/local.at (AT_SKIP_IF_EXCEPTION_SUPPORT_IS_POOR): Generate
'exceptions', not 'exception'.
