Let's use GNU readline and its TAB autocompletion to demonstrate the
use of yyexpected_tokens.
This shows a number of weaknesses in our current approach:
- some macros (yyssp, etc.) from push parsers "leak" in user code, we
need to undefine them
- the context needed by yyexpected_tokens does not need the token,
yypstate actually suffices
- yypstate is not properly setup when first allocated, which results
in a crash of yyexpected_tokens if fired before a first token was
read. We should move initialization from yypush_parse into
yypstate_new.
* examples/c/bistromathic/parse.y (yylex): Take input as a string, not
a file.
(EXIT): New token.
(input): Adjust to work only on a line.
(line): Remove.
(symbol_count, process_line, expected_tokens, completion)
(init_readline): New.
* examples/c/bistromathic/bistromathic.test: Adjust expectations.
This example will soon use GNU readline, so its scanner should be easy
to use (concurrently) on strings, not streams. This is not a place
where Flex shines, and anyway, these are examples of Bison, not Flex.
There's already lexcalc and reccalc that demonstrate the use of Flex.
* examples/c/bistromathic/scan.l: Remove.
* examples/c/bistromathic/parse.y (yylex): New.
Adjust dependencies.
