We still have a few old C casts in lalr1.cc, let's get rid of them.
Reported by Frank Heckenbach.
Actually, let's monitor all our casts using easy to grep macros.
Let's use these macros to use the C++ standard casts when we are in
C++.
* data/skeletons/c.m4 (b4_cast_define): New.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/glr.cc,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/stack.hh,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Use it and/or its casts.
* tests/actions.at, tests/cxx-type.at,
* tests/glr-regression.at, tests/headers.at, tests/torture.at,
* tests/types.at:
Use YY_CAST instead of C casts.
* configure.ac (warn_cxx): Add -Wold-style-cast.
* doc/bison.texi: Disable it.
This patch contains more fixes to prefer signed to unsigned
integer types, as modern tools like 'gcc -fsanitize=undefined'
can check for signed integer overflow but not unsigned overflow.
* NEWS: Document the API change.
* boostrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add intprops.
* data/skeletons/glr.c: Include stddef.h and stdint.h,
since this skeleton can assume C99 or later.
(YYSIZEMAX): Now signed, and the minimum of SIZE_MAX and PTRDIFF_MAX.
(yybool) [!__cplusplus]: Now signed (which is how bool behaves).
(YYTRANSLATE): Avoid use of unsigned, and make the macro
safe even for values greater than UINT_MAX.
(yytnamerr, struct yyGLRState, struct yyGLRStateSet, struct yyGLRStack)
(yyaddDeferredAction, yyinitStateSet, yyinitGLRStack)

(yyprocessOneStack, yyreportSyntaxError, yyrecoverSyntaxError)
(yyparse, yy_yypstack, yypstack, yypdumpstack):

* src/tables.c (conflict_tos, conflrow, conflict_table)
(conflict_list, save_row, pack_vector):
* tests/local.at (AT_YYLEX_DEFINE(c)):
Prefer signed to unsigned integer.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (yy_lac_check_):
* tests/actions.at (_AT_CHECK_PRINTER_AND_DESTRUCTOR):
* tests/local.at (AT_YYLEX_DEFINE(c)):
Omit now-unnecessary casts.
* data/skeletons/location.cc (b4_location_define):
* doc/bison.texi (Mfcalc Lexer, C++ position, C++ location):
Prefer int to unsigned for line and column numbers.
Change example to abort explicitly on memory exhaustion,
and fix an off-by-one bug that led to undefined behavior.
* data/skeletons/stack.hh (stack::operator[]):
Also allow ptrdiff_t indexes.
(stack::pop, slice::slice, slice::operator[]):
Index arg is now ptrdiff_t, not int.
(stack::ssize): New method.
(slice::range_): Now ptrdiff_t, not int.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (b4_state_num_type): Remove.
All uses replaced by b4_int_type.
(YY_CONVERT_INT_BEGIN, YY_CONVERT_INT_END): New macros.
(yylac, yyparse): Use them around conversions that -Wconversion
would give false alarms about. Omit unnecessary casts.
(yy_stack_print): Use int rather than unsigned, and omit
a cast that doesn’t seem to be needed here any more.
* examples/c++/variant.yy (yylex):
* examples/c++/variant-11.yy (yylex):
Omit no-longer-needed conversions to unsigned.
* src/InadequacyList.c (InadequacyList__new_conflict):
Don’t assume *node_count is unsigned.
* src/output.c (muscle_insert_unsigned_table):
Remove; no longer used.
Currently we remove the rhs to install %empty instead.
* src/reader.c (grammar_rule_check_and_complete): Insert the missing
%empty in front of the rhs, not in replacement thereof.
* tests/actions.at (Add missing %empty): Check that.
The "identifier and colon" of a rule is implemented as a single token,
but whose location is only that of the identifier (so that messages
about the lhs of a rule are accurate). When reducing empty rules, the
default location is the single point location on the end of the
previous symbol. As a consequence, when Bison parses a grammar, the
location of the right-hand side of an empty rule is based on the
lhs, *independently of the position of the colon*. And the colon can
be way farther, separated by comments, white spaces, including empty
lines.
As a result, some messages look really bad. For instance:
$ cat foo.y
%%
foo : /* empty */
bar
: /* empty */
gives
$ bison -Wall foo.y
foo.y:2.4: warning: empty rule without %empty [-Wempty-rule]
2 | foo : /* empty */
| ^
foo.y:3.4: warning: empty rule without %empty [-Wempty-rule]
3 | bar
| ^
The carets are not at the right column, not even the right line.
This commit passes the colon "again" after the "id colon" token, which
gives more accurate locations for these messages:
$ bison -Wall foo.y
foo.y:2.10: warning: empty rule without %empty [-Wempty-rule]
2 | foo : /* empty */
| ^
foo.y:4.2: warning: empty rule without %empty [-Wempty-rule]
4 | : /* empty */
| ^
* src/scan-gram.l (SC_AFTER_IDENTIFIER): Rollback the colon, so that
we scan it again afterwards.
(INITIAL): Scan colons.
* src/parse-gram.y (COLON): New.
(rules): Parse the colon after the rule's id_colon (and possible
named reference).
* tests/actions.at, tests/conflicts.at, tests/diagnostics.at,
* tests/existing.at: Adjust.
Currently, when we quote the source file, we indent it with one space,
and preserve tabulations, so there is a discrepancy and the visual
rendering is bad. One way out is to indent with a tab instead of a
space, but then this space can be used for more information. This is
what GCC9 does. Let's play copy cats.

* src/location.c (location_caret): Prefix quoted lines with the line
number and a pipe, fitting 8 columns.
* tests/actions.at, tests/c++.at, tests/conflicts.at,
* tests/diagnostics.at, tests/input.at, tests/java.at,
* tests/named-refs.at, tests/reduce.at, tests/regression.at,
* tests/sets.at: Adjust expectations.
Partly by "./build-aux/update-test tests/testsuite.dir/*/testsuite.log"
repeatedly, and partly by hand.
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.

We also need to move the unreachable 'goto' to a reachable place,
otherwise clang complains about the code being unreachable anyway.
See also https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39736.
Interestingly, we don't have to apply that trick to
`#define YYCDEBUG if (false) std::cerr`, clang does not warn when the
code comes from macro expansion.
* configure.ac: Use -Wunreachable-code when supported.
* data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Pacify clang's warning about `if (0)`
by using a macro.
Another possibility was to move this statement to a reachable place.
* tests/actions.at, tests/c++.at: Avoid generating unreachable code.
The previous name is too obscure, and the other macros for C++ use
CXX, not CC.
* tests/local.at (AT_SKEL_CC_IF, AT_SKEL_JAVA_IF): Rename as...
(AT_CXX_IF, AT_JAVA_IF): these.
Adjust callers.
The code was already using midrule only, never mid_rule. This is
simpler to remember, and matches a similar change we made from
look-ahead to lookahead.
* NEWS, doc/bison.texi, src/reader.c, src/scan-code.h, src/scan-code.l
* tests/actions.at, tests/c++.at, tests/existing.at: here.
* tests/actions.at: Fix some log messages.
Prefer #error to fprintf: it fixes the invalid use of yyoutput in
%destructor, and it is an even stronger check: that the code is not
even emitted. The portability of #error is not really a problem here,
since the point is anyway to have the compilation fail.
* tests/input.at (_AT_UNUSED_VALUES_DECLARATIONS): Check
typed mid-rule actions.
* tests/report.at (Reports): Check that types of typed mid-rule
actions are reported.
* tests/actions.at (Typed mid-rule actions): Check that
the values of typed mid-rule actions are correct.
* data/lalr1.cc, doc/bison.texi, etc/bench.pl.in, examples/variant.yy,
* tests/actions.at, tests/atlocal.in, tests/c++.at, tests/headers.at,
* tests/local.at, tests/types.at:
Don't use std::endl, it flushes uselessly, and is considered bad
style.
Currently lalr1.cc makes an out-of-bound access when trying to read @1
in rules with an empty rhs (i.e., when there is no @1) that raises an
error (YYERROR).
glr.c already gracefully handles this by using @$ as initial location
for the errors. Let's do that in yacc.c and lalr1.cc.
* data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c: Use @$ to initialize the error location.
* tests/actions.at: Check that case.
There are warnings (-Wextra) in generated C++ code:
ltlparse.cc: In member function 'ltlyy::parser::symbol_number_type
ltlyy::parser::by_state::type_get() const':
ltlparse.cc:452:33: warning: enumeral and non-enumeral type in
conditional expression
return state == empty_state ? empty_symbol : yystos_[state];
Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz.
It turns out that -Wall and -Wextra were disabled because of a stupid
typo.
* configure.ac: Fix the stupid typo.
* data/lalr1.cc, src/AnnotationList.c, src/InadequacyList.c,
* src/ielr.c, src/print.c, src/scan-code.l, src/symlist.c,
* src/symlist.h, src/symtab.c, src/tables.c, tests/actions.at,
* tests/calc.at, tests/cxx-type.at, tests/glr-regression.at,
* tests/named-refs.at, tests/torture.at:
Fix warnings, mostly issues about variables used only with assertions,
which are disabled with -DNDEBUG.
This fixes test 241 on xLC:
"input.y", line 42.11: 1540-0274 (S) The name lookup for "report" did not find a declaration.
"input.y", line 42.11: 1540-1292 (I) Static declarations are not considered for a function call if the function is not qualified.
where report is:
static void
report (std::ostream& yyo, int ival, float fval)
{
yyo << "ival: " << ival << ", fval: " << fval;
}
and line 42 is:
%printer { report (yyo, $$, $<fval>$); } <ival>;
It turns out that indeed this function must not be declared static,
<http://stackoverflow.com/a/17662745/1353549>. Let's put it into an
anonymous namespace.
Reported by Thomas Jahns.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2015-01/msg00059.html
* tests/actions.at (Qualified $$ in actions): Don't use "static",
prefer anonymous namespace.
-Wsign-compare was disabled for bison's own code, following gnulib's
approach. However, the generated parsers should not trigger such
warnings.
Reported by Efi Fogel.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bison/2013-04/msg00018.html
See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16101062 for the weird
"-(unsigned)i" piece of code.
* configure.ac (warn_tests): Enable -Wsign-compare.
* data/location.cc (position::add_): New.
(position::lines, position::columns): Use it.
* tests/actions.at (AT_CHECK_PRINTER_AND_DESTRUCTOR): Fix signedness issues.
Bison 3.0 is already breaking backward compatibility with other
features. It is an appropriate time to drop this feature. Note that
it was disabled when --yacc is passed. See
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2013-02/msg00102.html
Basically, revert e8cd1ad655.
* src/scan-code.l (braces_level, need_semicolon, in_cpp): Remove.
Remove every rule needed to detect and add missing semicolon.
* tests/actions.at (Fix user actions without a trailing semicolon):
Remove.
* NEWS: Adjust.
When reporting a duplicate directive on a rule, point to its first
occurrence:
one.y:11.10-15: error: only one %empty allowed per rule
%empty {} %empty
^^^^^^
one.y:11.3-8: previous declaration
%empty {} %empty
^^^^^^
And consistently discard the second one.
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (duplicate_directive): New.
* src/reader.c: Use it where appropriate.
* src/symlist.h, src/symlist.c (symbol_list): Add a dprec_location member.
* tests/actions.at: Adjust expected output.
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (warning_is_unset): New.
* src/reader.c (grammar_current_rule_empty_set): If enabled -Wempty-rule,
if not disabled.
* tests/actions.at (Implicitly empty rule): Check this feature.
Also check that -Wno-empty-rule does disable this warning.
Provide a means to explicitly denote empty right-hand sides of rules:
instead of
exp: { ... }
allow
exp: %empty { ... }
Make sure that %empty is properly used.
