release number, and use that as a signal to automatically print the
ChangeLog's CVS Id keyword from --version. Discussed starting at
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-05/msg00028.html>.
* ChangeLog: Add Id header.
* configure.ac (AC_INIT): Append `+' to `2.3'.
* src/.cvsignore: Add revision.c.
* src/Makefile.am (bison_SOURCES): Add revision.c and revision.h.
(BUILT_SOURCES): Add revision.c.
(revision.c): New target rule. This file defines a new global variable
named revision. It initializes it with either the Id from ChangeLog
or, if VERSION doesn't contain `+', with the empty string.
* src/getargs.c (version): Print the value of revision.
* src/revision.h: Extern revision.
with no arguments, not as an object-like macro. This is for
compatibility with data/yacc.c. Problem reported by John P. Hartmann in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00059.html>.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Action Features, Error Recovery, Table of Symbols):
Document this.
shell, not within 'make', so that 'make' by an ordinary builder
(using GNU make) does not worry about configuring gzip. This also
works around a bug reported independently by Keith Thompson and by
Georg Schwarz, whereby gzip 1.2.4 --help would output usage on
stderr rather than stdout, messing up the build logs.
to make sure that YYID will never be unused. This fixes a 'make
maintainer-check' failure caused by the recent changes to the 'Trivial
grammars' test case, which caused g++ 4.1.0 to complain that YYID was
not used.
* data/glr.c (yyparse): Wrap yyparse's return inside YYID just in case.
state before an empty RHS is always resolved here. Only the location
of that state is guaranteed to be resolved, and that's enough. This
fixes the remaining bug reported by Derek M. Jones in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00027.html>.
* tests/glr-regression.at (Uninitialized location when reporting
ambiguity): Test the above case.
Also, the embedded comments in this test case claim it checks the case
of an empty RHS that has inherited the initial location. However, the
corresponding LHS was already resolved, so yyresolveLocations didn't
actually have reason to modify it. Fix this by forcing
nondeterministic operation at the beginning of the parse.
(b4_yy_symbol_print_generate): Use 'YYSTYPE const' rather than
'const YYSTYPE', and similarly for YYLTYPE. This fixes one
of the bugs reported today by Derek M Jones in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00027.html>.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Value Type): Document that YYSTYPE must be
defined to be a type name without parens or brackets.
(Location Type): Similarly for YYLTYPE.
* tests/regression.at (Trivial grammars): Put in a test for this
bug that will be caught by 'make maintainer-check' (though not,
alas, by 'make check' unless your compiler is picky).
preceding the RHS. This fixes the segmentation fault reported by Derek
M. Jones in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bison/2006-05/msg00035.html>.
(yyreportTree, yypdumpstack): Subtract 1 from yyrule before printing
to the user. Reported for yyreportTree by Derek M. Jones later in the
same thread.
* THANKS: Add Derek M. Jones.
Update my email address.
Fix typo in Steve Murphy's name.
checking against YYLAST that caused the parser to miss a potential
alternative in its diagnostic.
Problem reported by Maria Jose Moron Fernandez in
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00024.html>.
* data/lalr1.cc (yysyntax_error_): Likewise.
* data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): Likewise.
* tests/regression.at (_AT_DATA_DANCER_Y): Use static array for
tokens, in case we run into an older C compiler.
(_AT_DATA_EXPECT2_Y, AT_CHECK_EXPECT2): New macros.
Use them to check for the off-by-one error fixed above.
* src/getargs.c (trace_types, trace_args): Accept trace_m4.
* src/output.c (output_skeleton): When set, pass -dV to m4.
Factor the handling of flags in m4.
* src/output.c (prepare): Rename the muscle names debug, defines,
error_verbose to debug_flag, defines_flag, error_verbose_flag.
* data/c.m4: Adjust.
(_b4_define_flag_if, b4_define_flag_if, b4_defines_if): New.
Use b4_define_flag_if to define other b4_FLAG_if macros.
(b4_location_if): As a consequence, rename as...
(b4_locations_if): this, for consistency.
Adjust all the skeletons.
skeletons here, so we don't have to put it in each skeleton. All
uses changed. Wrap the copyright notice, in case it is longer
than 80 columns. Replace comma by newline after title.
the copyright notice. Use more-regular format for titles and
copyright notices.
* data/glr.cc: Likewise.
* data/location.cc: Likewise.
* data/yacc.cc: Likewise.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Conditions): Document this.
* NEWS: likewise. Upgrade version to 2.2.
The test suite already exercize these cases.
* data/c++.m4 (b4_namespace): New.
* data/lalr1.cc, data/glr.cc, data/location.cc: Use it instead of `yy'.
* data/lalr1.cc (yytnameerr_): Move its definition into the namespace.
* data/yacc.c, data/glr.c: Remove a useless `[]'.
* doc/bison.texinfo: Document it.
(Option Cross Key): Use @multitable in all formats. It looks
nicer, even in TeX outputs.
(Rules): Use the same code whatever the output type is.
* tests/local.at (_AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS)
(_AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Support AT_NAME_PREFIX.
* tests/calc.at: Use it, instead of hard coding `yy'.
