Because we want to support $<a->b>$, we must accept -> in type tags,
and reject $<->$, as it is unfinished.
Reported by Ahcheong Lee.
* src/scan-code.l (yylex): Make sure "tag" does not end with -, since
-> does not close the tag.
* tests/input.at (Stray $ or @): Check this.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: added support here
* tests/calc.at: added test cases
* tests/local.at: added yyreport_syntax_error implementation
for C++ test cases
Since Bison 2.7, output was indented four spaces for explanatory
statements. For example:
input.y:2.7-13: error: %type redeclaration for exp
input.y:1.7-11: previous declaration
Since the introduction of caret-diagnostics, it became less clear.
Remove the indentation and display submessages as in GCC:
input.y:2.7-13: error: %type redeclaration for exp
2 | %type <float> exp
| ^~~~~~~
input.y:1.7-11: note: previous declaration
1 | %type <int> exp
| ^~~~~
* src/complain.h (SUB_INDENT): Remove.
(warnings): Add "note" to the enum.
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (complain_indent): Replace by...
(subcomplain): this.
Adjust all dependencies.
* tests/actions.at, tests/diagnostics.at, tests/glr-regression.at,
* tests/input.at, tests/named-refs.at, tests/regression.at:
Adjust expectations.
This revealed a number of things I had not realized:
- the Java location tracking was aliasing the same pair of positions
for all the symbols (see previous commit).
- in impure parsers, it's quite easy to use incorrect locations for
diagnostics, since yyerror uses yylloc, which is the location of the
lookahead, not that of the current lhs. So we need something like
{
YYLTYPE old_yylloc = yylloc;
yylloc = @$;
yyerror (]AT_PARAM_IF([result, count, nerrs, ])[buf);
yylloc = old_yylloc;
}
Maybe we should do that little yylloc dance in the skeleton instead
of leaving it to the user? It might be costly... But that's only
for users of the impure parsers, which are asking for trouble
anyway.
- in glr.cc invoking yyerror is somewhat cumbersome: the C++ interface
is not available as we are in yyparse (which in C), and yyerror is
used by glr.cc itself to bind it to the user's parser::error. If we
call yyerror, we need:
yyerror (]AT_LOCATION_IF([[&@$, ]])[yyparser, ]AT_PARAM_IF([result, count, nerrs, ])[msg);
However calling yy::parser::error is easier, once we know that the
current parser object is available as 'yyparser'. Which also saves
us from having to pass the parse-params ourselves:
yyparser.error (]AT_LOCATION_IF([[@$, ]])[msg);
* tests/calc.at: Invoke yyerror by hand, instead of using fprintf etc.
Adjust expectations.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java (Context): Make data members private.
(Context.getLocation): New.
* examples/java/calc/Calc.y, tests/java.at, tests/local.at: Adjust.
* doc/bison.texi (Tokens from Literals): Move to code using
%token-table to...
(Decl Summary: %token-table): here.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4: Implement mutual exclusion.
* tests/input.at: Check it.
* doc/local.mk: Be robust to the removal of doc/.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java (yyexpectedTokens)
(yysyntaxErrorArguments): Make them methods of Context.
(Context.yysymbolName): New.
* tests/local.at: Adjust.
In Java there is no need for N_ and yytranslate_. So instead of
hard-coding the use of N_ in the table of the symbol names, rely on
b4_symbol_translate.
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_names): Use b4_symbol_translate instead
of N_.
* data/skeletons/c.m4 (b4_symbol_translate): New.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java (yysymbolName): New.
Use it.
* examples/java/calc/Calc.y: Use parse.error=detailed.
* tests/calc.at: Check parse.error=detailed.
Unfortunately in the Java skeleton the user cannot override the way
locations are displayed, and locations don't know the structure of the
positions. So they cannot implement the tricks used in the C/C++
skeletons to display "1.1" instead of "1.1-1.2".
* tests/local.at (Java): Add support for column tracking in the
locations, as we did in examples/java/calc.
* tests/calc.at: Use AT_CALC_YYLEX.
Soon calculator tests for Java will move from java.at to calc.at.
Which implies improving the Java testing infrastructure in
local.at (for instance really tracking columns in positions, not just
token number). Detach java.at from local.at.
* tests/java.at (AT_JAVA_POSITION_DEFINE_OLD): New.
Use it.
The C, C++ and D skeletons used to show the stack right after popping
the stack during the reduction. Now that the stack is printed after
reaching a new state, that has become useless:
Entering state 1
Stack now 0 1
Reducing stack by rule 5 (line 83):
$1 = token "number" (1)
-> $$ = nterm exp (1)
Stack now 0
Entering state 8
Stack now 0 8
Remove the "Stack now 0" line.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java, data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Here.
Currently, if we have long rules and series of shift, we stack states
without showing stack. Let's be more incremental, and do how the Java
skeleton does.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Here.
Adjust test cases.
* tests/torture.at (AT_DATA_STACK_TORTURE): Disable stack traces: this
test produces a very large stack, and showing the stack each time we
shift a token goes quadatric.
The Java skeleton displays
Reading a token:
Next token is token "number" (1)
while the other display
Reading a token: Next token is token "number" (1)
When generating logs in the scanner, the first part is separated from
the second, and the end of the scanner logs have the second part
pasted in. So let's propagate the Java way, but with the colon.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java, data/skeletons/yacc.c: Do it.
Adjust test cases and doc.
* tests/local.at (AT_LANG_MATCH): New.
(AT_YYERROR_DECLARE(java), AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN(java)): New.
* tests/calc.at: The grammar file for Java is quite different for the
others, and continuing to assemble it from pieces makes the grammar
file hard to understand. Let's also dispatch on the language to
assemble it, and isolate Java from the others.
Most of this comes from java.at.
AFAICT, autoboxing/unboxing was added in Java 5 (September 30, 2004).
I think we can afford to use it. It should help us merge some Java
tests with the main ones.
However, beware that != does not unbox: it compares the object
addresses.
* examples/java/Calc.y, tests/java.at: Simplify.
* examples/java/Calc.test, tests/java.at: Improve tests.
When building the test cases, emitting code in the epilogue is very
constraining. Let's make it simpler thanks to %code epilogue.
However, I don't want to document this: it is bad style to use it (we
should avoid having too many ways to write the same thing,
TI!MTOWTDI), just put your code in the true epilogue section.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.d, data/skeletons/lalr1.java,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: Implement support for %code epilogue.
Remove useless comments.
* tests/calc.at, tests/java.at: Simplify.
We used to display the unexpected token first:
$ bison foo.y
foo.y:1.8-13: error: syntax error, unexpected %token, expecting character literal or identifier or <tag>
1 | %token %token
| ^~~~~~
GCC uses a different format:
$ gcc-mp-9 foo.c
foo.c:1:5: error: expected identifier or '(' before ')' token
1 | int()()()
| ^
and so does Clang:
$ clang-mp-9.0 foo.c
foo.c:1:5: error: expected identifier or '('
int()()()
^
1 error generated.
They display the unexpected token last (or not at all). Also, they
don't waste width with "syntax error". Let's try that. It gives, for
the same example as above:
$ bison foo.y
foo.y:1.8-13: error: expected character literal or identifier or <tag> before %token
1 | %token %token
| ^~~~~~
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (syntax_error): New.
* src/parse-gram.y (yyreport_syntax_error): Use it.
As a test case, support translations in Bison itself.
* src/parse-gram.y: Mark the translatable tokens.
While at it, use clearer names.
* tests/input.at: Adjust expectations.
Just as the yacc.c skeleton, the lalr1.cc skeleton should reject
invalid values for parse.lac.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: check validity of parse.lac
* tests/input.at: new test cases
Just as the yacc.c skeleton, the lalr1.cc skeleton should reject
invalid values for parse.lac.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: check validity of parse.lac
* tests/input.at: new test cases
Some users would like to avoid having to "parse" the *.y file to find
the strings to translate. Let's issue the translatable tokens with N_
to allow "parsing" the generated parsers instead.
See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2019-01/msg00015.html
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_names): Issue symbol_names with N_()
markup.
* src/output.c (escape_trigraphs, xescape_trigraphs): New.
(prepare_symbol_names): Use it.
* tests/regression.at: Check the handling of trigraphs with
parse.error = detailed.
"detailed" error messages are almost like "verbose", except that we
don't double escape them, they don't get inner quotes, we don't use
yytnamerr, and we hide the table.
"custom" is exposed with the "detailed" tokens, not the "verbose"
ones: they are not double-quoted.
Because there's a risk that some people use yytname even without
"verbose", let's keep yytname (instead of yys_name) in "simple"
parse.error.
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_names): Be ready to output symbol names
unquoted.
(prepare_symbol_names): Output both the old tname table, and the new
symbol_names one.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4: Accept 'detailed'.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: When parse.error is 'detailed', don't emit
yytname and yytnamerr, just yysymbol_name with the table inside.
* tests/calc.at: Adjust.
Be robust to newer versions of Autoconf where the package URL defaults
to https instead of http.
* configure.ac (AC_INIT): Use https.
* tests/report.at: Adjust expected output s/http/https/
to match updated URL.
Currently we get warnings with GCC 4.8 when running the
maintainer-check-g++ tests:

We could use a cast to avoid the warning, but it becomes too
cluttered. We can also use YYPTRDIFF_T, but that forces the user to
use YYPTRDIFF_T too, although this is an array of tokens, which is
limited by YYNTOKENS, an int. So let's completely avoid this warning.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c, tests/local.at (yyreport_syntax_error): Avoid
relying on sizeof to compute the array capacity.
Enhance the calculator tests: show that passing arguments to yyerror
works.
* tests/calc.at: Add a new parse-param, nerrs, which counts the number
of syntax errors in a run.
* tests/local.at: Adjust to handle the new 'nerrs' argument, when
present.
The custom error reporting function show sees the user's additional
arguments. Let's experiment with passing them as arguments to
yyreport_syntax_error, but maybe storing them in the context would be
a bettter alternative.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yyreport_syntax_error): Handle the
parse-params.
* tests/calc.at, tests/local.at: Adjust.
Currently the parse-params are tested in calc.at by checking that the
global variable and the parse-params have the same value. But it does
not check that value, that could remain being 0 just as well.
* tests/calc.at: Don't define the params when they are not used.
Check the final value of result and count.
Also, do count the number of line of logs.
