When no header was to be generated, Bison would issue:
/* In a future release of Bison, this section will be replaced
by #include "". */
#ifndef YY_
# define YY_
It now properly generates nothing.
* data/c.m4 (b4_cpp_guard_open, b4_cpp_guard_close): Issue nothing when
the file name is empty.
* data/yacc.c: Do not generate the above comment when there is no header
to generate.
* NEWS: Update.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-08/msg00007.html
shows that it is useful to help users report translation issues.
While at it, include other informative bits that the coreutils shows.
* src/getargs.c (usage): Report more URLs where the user can
refer to.
Mostly copied/pasted from coreutils' emit_ancillary_info function.
* tests/torture.at (AT_DATA_STACK_TORTURE): M4 style changes to
improve readability.
Fix an assertion which, because of a <= instead of ==, did not check
new_status as visibly meant.
(get_args): New.
There are still spurious spaces at the end of some lines. But this is
addressed in the master branch, and I am reluctant to try to backport
this.
* data/yacc.c, data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/glr.cc: here.
* tests/calc.at (AT_CHECK_SPACES): New.
Use it.
Be sure not to introduce trailing empty lines in the *.y files.
* NEWS: Doc it.
* cfg.mk (syntax-check): Remove the exception.
* tests/synclines.at (AT_TEST_SYNCLINE): Rename as...
(AT_TEST): this.
Use pushdef/popdef.
Formatting changes.
Use '+' instead of '*' where appropriate.
* src/parse-gram.y (add_param): No only skip ' ' and '\t', skip all
leading and trailing spaces.
* tests/regression.at (Lex and parse params): Check it.
* NEWS: Document it.
This is not just nicer, it is also much safer, since we were
using sprintf...
* bootstrap.conf: Require it.
* src/system.h (obstack_fgrow1, obstack_fgrow2, obstack_fgrow3)
(obstack_fgrow4): Remove.
Adjust dependencies.
$ flex src/scan-skel.l
src/scan-skel.l:145: multiple <<EOF>> rules for start condition SC_AT_DIRECTIVE_ARGS
src/scan-skel.l:145: multiple <<EOF>> rules for start condition SC_AT_DIRECTIVE_SKIP_WS
This is warning, and it seems there are no means to make it an error.
* src/scan-skel.l: Restore the start-condition INITIAL for an <<EOF>>
clause.
* cfg.mk: Nuke the following warnings which are confused by our
text reports (that state that the error token is number 256).
prohibit_magic_number_exit
../../doc/bison.texi:8170:error (256)
../../tests/conflicts.at:570:error (256)
../../tests/conflicts.at:673:error (256)
../../tests/conflicts.at:811:error (256)
../../tests/conflicts.at:1154:error (256)
../../tests/regression.at:281:error (256)
../../tests/regression.at:582:error (256)
maint.mk: use EXIT_* values rather than magic number
scan-code.l is already passing argument to b4_dollar_dollar for the
initial acton, but its definition (of b4_dollar_dollar) does not use
this argument.
Generalize this definition, and use it for the %initial-action too.
* data/c.m4 (b4_dollar_dollar_, b4_dollar_pushdef, b4_dollar_popdef):
Instead of expecting a pointer, require a value, and use ".".
Since they are now generic enough, move to...
* data/c-like.m4: this new file.
* data/c.m4, data/java.m4: Load it.
* data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/lalr1.java, data/yacc.c: Use
b4_dollar_pushdef for the %initial-action.
* tests/actions.at: Check that.
* data/Makefile.am: Adjust.
* NEWS, doc/bison.texi: Document.
Currently "%printer {...} a b c d e f" translates the {...} six times.
Not only is this bad for time and space, it also issues six times the
same warnings.
* src/symlist.h, src/symlist.c (symbol_list_destructor_set)
(symbol_list_printer_set): Take the action as code_props instead of
const char *.
* src/parse-gram.y: Translate these actions here.
* src/scan-code.h: Comment change.
* tests/input.at: Check that warnings are issued only once.
The conversion from @ to @@ and so forth is coded is too many
different places. Factor, a bit.
* src/scan-code.l: Instead of duplicating the logic of obstack_escape,
use it.
It sure is less efficient, but the cost is negligible.
This allows to factor rules that are alike.
And to factor some start-condition clauses.
* tests/input.at (Stray $ or @): New.
* NEWS: Document it.
* src/scan-code.l, src/scan-skel.l: Use a more traditional indentation
style for start-conditions.
Prefer "continue" to a comment, for empty actions.
Strip useless {}.
Remove useless start-condition clauses.
* src/scan-code.l (SC_SYMBOL_ACTION): Accept $<tag>$, not just $$.
* data/c.m4 (b4_dollar_dollar_): New.
(b4_symbol_actions): Let b4_dollar_dollar use b4_dollar_dollar_.
* NEWS, doc/bison.texi: Document it.
* tests/actions.at: Check this for C and C++.
* src/output.c (quoted_output): Split into...
(quoted_output, string_output): these.
Use the former when outputting a type_name.
* tests/input.at: Check this case.
* src/symtab.h: Comment changes.
With GCC 4.8, the tests on synclines are skipped. Transform
input.y:1:2: error: #error "1"
#error "1"
^
into
input.y:1: #error "1"
* tests/synclines.at (AT_SYNCLINES_COMPILE): Do it, using Perl instead of
sed.
* src/scan-code.l: Use obstack_quote when passing type_name to m4.
* tests/input.at (Code injection): New.
* NEWS: Document it.
Thanks to Paul Eggert for the wording.
* src/system.h (obstack_quote): New.
* src/muscle-tab.c: Use it instead of obstack_escape where applicable.
* src/scan-code.l: Since obstack_quote supports NULL, leave type_name
as NULL instead of defaulting to "".
* src/muscle-tab.c (MUSCLE_COMMON_DECODE, muscle_string_decode)
(muscle_location_decode): Not related to muscles, rename as...
(COMMON_DECODE, string_decode, location_decode): these.
* src/muscle-tab.h (MUSCLE_OBSTACK_SGROW): This is not related to
muscles, so move to, and rename as...
* src/system.h (obstack_escape): this.
Adjust dependencies.
makeinfo --html generates index.html, and the node "Index" will result
in Index.html. On case insensitive file systems, such as on Mac OS X
by default, this results in a single, invalid, file (Texinfo 4.13).
See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2012-07/msg00032.html
* doc/bison.texi (Index): Rename as...
(Index of Terms): this.
* configure.ac (VALGRIND_PREBISON): New.
* tests/Makefile.am (maintainer-check-valgrind): Use it.
* etc/darwin11.4.0.supp: New.
* configure.ac, etc/Makefile.am: Use it.
* configure.ac: Disable Valgrind on Mac OS X.
* README-hacking: Explain why.
* data/c++.m4, data/c.m4 (b4_yylloc_default_define): New.
* data/glr.c, data/glr.cc, data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Use it.
* data/glr.cc: Do not define YYLLOC_DEFAULT in the header file,
but in the implementation one.
The following mixture is insane:
#define YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL
#if (defined YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL && YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL)
since, of course YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL is defined. Instead we could
define YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL as PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL only when the
later is defined, but let's avoid stacking CPP on top of M4: rather, use
#if (defined PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL && PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL)
* data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Use YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL, YYSTYPE_IS_DECLARED,
YYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL and YYLTYPE_IS_DECLARED under their api.prefix-renamed
name.
The testsuite in master has shown weird errors for the "Mulitple
Parsers" tests: the caller of p5.parse() received some apparently
random value, while tracing p5.parse() showed that the function was
consistently returning 0.
It happens when mixing several parser headers, some generated without
%debug, others with. In particular the C++ parser was generated with
%debug, i.e., with:
#ifndef YYDEBUG
# define YYDEBUG 1
#endif
and compiled separatedly. Yet, its header was included after the one
of another parser, this time without %debug, i.e., with
#ifndef YYDEBUG
# define YYDEBUG 0
#endif
in its header. As a result, the parser was compiled with YYDEBUG set,
but its header was used without. Since the layout of the objects are
then completely different, boom.
Therefore, do not change the value of YYDEBUG. Rather, use it as a
default value for <API.PREFIX>DEBUG.
* data/c.m4 (b4_YYDEBUG_define): New.
(b4_declare_yydebug): Rename as...
(b4_yydebug_declare): this, for consistency.
* data/glr.c, data/glr.cc, data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Use it.
* NEWS: Document it.
