Symbols may have several string representations, for instance if they
have an alias. What I call its "id" is a string that can be used as
an identifier. May not exist.
Currently the symbols which have the "tag_is_id" flag set are those that
don't have an alias. Look harder for the id.
* src/output.c (is_identifier): Move to...
* src/symtab.c (is_identifier): here.
* src/symtab.h, src/symtab.c (symbol_id_get): New.
* src/output.c (symbol_definitions_output): Use it to define "id"
and "has_id".
Remove the definition of "tag_is_id".
* data/lalr1.cc: Use the "id" and "has_id" whereever "tag" and
"tag_is_id" were used to produce code.
We still use "tag" for documentation.
* data/lalr1.cc (_b4_args, b4_args): New.
Adjust all uses of locations to make them optional.
* tests/c++.at (AT_CHECK_VARIANTS): No longer use the locations.
(AT_CHECK_NAMESPACE): Check the use of locations.
* tests/calc.at (_AT_DATA_CALC_Y): Adjust to be usable with or
without locations with lalr1.cc.
Test these cases.
* tests/output.at: Check lalr1.cc with and without location
support.
* tests/regression.at (_AT_DATA_EXPECT2_Y, _AT_DATA_DANCER_Y):
Don't use locations.
* TODO (lalr1.cc/I18n): Remove.
* data/lalr1.cc (yysyntax_error_): Support the translation of the
error messages, as done in yacc.c.
Stay within the yy* pseudo namespace.
* data/lalr1.cc (b4_lex_symbol_if): New.
(parse): When lex_symbol is defined, expected yylex to return the
complete lookahead.
* etc/bench.pl.in (generate_grammar_list): Extend to support this
yylex interface.
(bench_variant_parser): Exercise it.
* data/lalr1.cc (yytranslate_): Handle the EOF case.
Adjust callers.
No longer expect yychar to be equal to yyeof_, rather, test the
lookahead's (translated) kind.
make_symbol provides a means to construct a full symbol (kind, value,
location) in a single shot. It is meant to be a Symbol constructor,
parameterized by the symbol kind so that overloading would prevent
incorrect kind/value pairs. Unfortunately parameterized constructors do
not work well in C++ (unless the parameter also appears as an argument,
which is not acceptable), hence the use of a function instead of a
constructor.
* data/lalr1.cc (b4_symbol_constructor_declaration_)
(b4_symbol_constructor_declarations)
(b4_symbol_constructor_specialization_)
(b4_symbol_constructor_specializations)
(b4_symbol_constructor_definition_)
(b4_symbol_constructor_definitions): New.
Use them where appropriate to generate declaration, declaration of
the specializations, and implementations of the templated
overloaded function "make_symbol".
(variant::variant): Always define a default ctor.
Also provide a copy ctor.
(symbol_base_type, symbol_type): New ctor overloads for value-less
symbols.
(symbol_type): Now public, so that functions such as yylex can use
it.
* NEWS: Document them.
General Java skeleton improvements.
* configure.ac (gt_JAVACOMP): Request target of 1.4, which allows
using gcj < 4.3 in the testsuite, according to comments in
gnulib/m4/javacomp.m4.
* data/java.m4 (stype, parser_class_name, lex_throws, throws,
location_type, position_type): Remove extraneous brackets from
b4_percent_define_default.
(b4_lex_param, b4_parse_param): Remove extraneous brackets from
m4_define and m4_define_default.
* data/lalr1.java (b4_pre_prologue): Change to b4_user_post_prologue,
which marks the end of user code with appropriate syncline, like all
the other skeletons.
(b4_user_post_prologue): Add. Don't silently drop.
(yylex): Remove.
(parse): Inline yylex.
* doc/bison.texinfo (bisonVersion, bisonSkeleton): Document.

%define annotations.

about %error-verbose having no effect.

* data/java.m4 (b4_token_enum): Indent for move to Lexer interface.
(parse): Qualify EOF to Lexer.EOF.

EOF and token names to Java Lexer Interface.

(yyerror): Change to public. Add Javadoc comments. Use longer
parameter names. Make the body rather than the declarator
conditional on %locations.
* doc/bison.texinfo (yyerror): Document. Don't mark as protected.
Allow user to add code to the constructor with %code init.
* data/java.m4 (b4_init_throws): New, for %define init_throws.

For instance, how can a * b / c be parsed if * is %left and / is
%right?
(YYERRORCODE, YYFAIL, YYBACKUP): New.
* src/output.c (type_names_output): Document all the symbols,
including those that don't have a type-name.
(symbol_definitions_output): Define "is_token" and
"has_type_name".
* data/lalr1.cc (b4_type_action_): Skip symbols that have an empty
type-name, now that they are defined too in b4_type_names.
Small speedup (1%) on the list grammar. And makes yytranslate_ available
in non member functions.
* data/lalr1.cc (yytranslate_): Does not need to be a instance
function.
* data/c.m4: b4_comment(TEXT): Don't indent empty lines.
* data/lalr1.cc: Don't indent before rule and symbol actions, as
they can be empty, and anyway this incorrectly indents the first
action.
This is just nicer to read, I observed no speedup.
* data/lalr1.cc (yyeof_, yylast_, yynnts_, yyempty_, yyfinal_)
(yterror_, yyerrcode_, yyntokens_): Define as members of an enum.
(yyuser_token_number_max_, yyundef_token_): Move into...
(yytranslate_): here.
* etc/bench.pl.in: Inform compilation-mode when we change the
directory.
(generate_grammar_list): Recognize %define "variant" in addition
to %define variant.
Before we were using tables which lines were the symbols and which
columns were things like number, tag, type-name etc. It is was
difficult to extend: each time a column was added, all the numbers had
to be updated (you asked for colon $2, not for "tag"). Also, it was
hard to filter these tables when only a subset of the symbols (say the
tokens, or the nterms, or the tokens that have and external number
*and* a type-name) was of interest.
Now instead of monolithic tables, we define one macro per cell. For
instance "b4_symbol(0, tag)" is a macro name which contents is
self-decriptive. The macro "b4_symbol" provides easier access to
these cells.
* src/output.c (type_names_output): Remove.
(symbol_numbers_output, symbol_definitions_output): New.
(muscles_output): Call them.
(prepare_symbols): Define b4_symbols_number.
This improves the "list" bench by 2%.
* data/lalr1.cc (variant::build): Add an overloaded version with
an argument.
* tests/c++.at (AT_CHECK_VARIANT): Check it.
Unfortunately it is not possible to reuse the %prec directive. This
is because to please POSIX, we do not require to end the rules with a
semicolon. As a result,
foo: bar %prec baz
is ambiguous: either a rule which precedence is that of baz, or a rule,
and then a declaration of the precedence of the token baz.
* doc/bison.texinfo: Document %precedence.
(Precedence Only): New.
* src/assoc.h, src/assoc.c (precedence_assoc): New.
* src/conflicts.c (resolve_sr_conflict): Support it.
* src/scan-gram.l, src/parse-gram.y (%precedence): New token.
Parse it.
* tests/calc.at: Use %precedence for NEG.
* tests/conflicts.at (%precedence does not suffice)
(%precedence suffices): New tests.
