Currently the caller must specify the ./ prefix to its command. Let's
avoid that: it will be nicer to read, make it easier to have a version
that works for Java and C/C++.
* tests/local.at (AT_PARSER_CHECK): Prefix the command with ./.
Adjust callers.
* src/parse-gram.y: Use the location of the whole definition to record
the location of a %define variable, instead of just the name of the
variable.
Adjust tests.
Instead of introducing make_symbol (whose name, btw, somewhat
infringes on the user's "name space", if she defines a token named
"symbol"), let's make the construction of symbol_type safer, using
assertions.
For instance with:
%token ':' <std::string> ID <int> INT;
generate:
symbol_type (int token, const std::string&);
symbol_type (int token, const int&);
symbol_type (int token);
It does mean that now named token constructors (make_ID, make_INT,
etc.) go through a useless assert, but I think we can ignore this: I
assume any decent compiler will inline the symbol_type ctor inside the
make_TOKEN functions, which will show that the assert is trivially
verified, hence I expect no code will be emitted for it. And anyway,
that's an assert, NDEBUG controls it.
* data/c++.m4 (symbol_type): Turn into a subclass of
basic_symbol<by_type>.
Declare symbol constructors when variants are enabled.
* data/variant.hh (_b4_type_constructor_declare)
(_b4_type_constructor_define): Replace with...
(_b4_symbol_constructor_declare, _b4_symbol_constructor_def): these.
Generate symbol_type constructors.
* doc/bison.texi (Complete Symbols): Document.
* tests/types.at: Check.
On
%token <int> FOO BAR
we currently generate make_FOO(int) and make_BAR(int). However, in
order to factor their scanners, some users would also like to have
make_symbol(tok, int), where tok is FOO or BAR. To ensure type
safety, add assertions that do check that value type and token type
match. Bind this assertion to the parse.assert %define variable.

* data/variant.hh: Use b4_token_visible_if where applicable.

Use them.
Bitten by macros, again.
See 680b715518.
* data/variant.hh (_b4_symbol_constructor_declare)
(_b4_symbol_constructor_define): Do not use user types, which can
include commas as in `std::pair<int, int>`, to macros.
* tests/local.at: Adjust the lex related macros to support the
case of token constructors.
* tests/types.at: Also check token constructors on types with commas.
We may generate code such as
basic_symbol (typename Base::kind_type t, YY_RVREF (std::pair<int,int>) v);
which, of course, breaks, because YY_RVREF sees two arguments. Let's
not play tricks with _VA_ARGS__, I'm unsure about it portability.
Anyway, I plan to change more things in this area.

This has been bugging me for while. I was hard to reproduce: it
worked only on GNU/Linux, probably because libc++ implements the small
string optimization, while libstdc++ did not and actually allocated on
the heap for this small string.

Bison supports a union tag, for obscure reasons. But it does a poor
job at it, especially since Bison 3.0.
Reported by Stephen Cameron and Tobias Frost.
It did not ensure that the name was not given several times. An easy
way to do this is to make the %union tag be handled as a %define
variable, as they cannot be defined several times.
Since Bison 3.0, the synclines were wrongly placed, resulting in
invalid code. Addressing this issue, because of the way the union tag
was stored (as a code muscle), would have been tedious. Unless we
rather define the %union tag as a %percent variable, whose synclines
are easier to manipulate.
So replace the b4_union_name muscle by the api.value.union.name
%define variable, document, and check.

* data/c++.m4: Make sure that api.value.union.name is not defined.

api.value.union.name.
* tests/input.at (Redefined %union name): New.

* tests/types.at: Check named %unions.
Reported by Rich Wilson.
* data/c.m4 (b4_symbol_type_register): Append to b4_union_members,
not b4_user_union_members.
The latter invokes the former, but it is the former which is reinitialized
to empty by b4_value_type_setup_union.
* tests/types.at: Check it.
This reveals another bug, this time in the case of glr.c parsers.
* data/glr.c: Generate the header file before the implementation file,
to be sure that the setup is run before what depends on it.

Provide a means to dereference pointers when defining tags. One
example could be:

{
typedef struct ListElementType
{
union value
{
int intVal;
float floatVal;
char* charptrVal;
} value;
struct ListElementType* next;
} ListElementType;
}
%union
{

%token <list->value.charptrVal> STRING
%token <list->value.intVal> INTEGER
%token <list->value.floatVal> REAL
%type <list> ElementList LiteralType
