I don't think it's fair to have yypstate_new, yypstate_delete,
yypush_parse and yypull_parse to have their own section, on par with
yyparse and yylex. Let them be in a single section about push
parsers. And show new/delete first.
* doc/bison.texi (Push Parser Interface): New.
Fuse the aforementioned sections into it.
The shell grammar does not allow empty statements in then/else part of
an if, but examples/test failed to catch the syntax errors from the
script it ran. So exited with success anyway.
You would expect 'set -e' to suffice, but with bash 3.2 actually it
does not. As a matter of fact, I could find a way to have this behave
properly:
$ cat test.sh
set -e
cleanup ()
{
status=$?
echo "cleanup: $status"
exit $status
}
trap cleanup 0 1 2 13 15
. $1
s=$?
echo "test.sh: $s"
exit $s
$ cat bistro.test
if true; then
fi
$ /bin/sh ./test.sh ./bistro.test
./bistro.test: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
cleanup: 0
$ echo $?
0
Remove the set -e (or the trap), and tada, it works... So we have to
deal with the error by hand.
* examples/test ($exit): Replace with...
($status): this.
Preserve the exit status of the test case.
* examples/c/bistromathic/bistromathic.test: Fix syntax error.

The failing tests are using glr.cc only, which I don't understand, the
problem is rather in glr.c, so I would expect glr.c tests to also fail.

To write unit tests for their scanners, some users depended on
symbol_type::token():
Lexer lex("12345");
symbol_type t = lex.nextToken();
assert(t.token() == token::INTLIT);
assert(t.value.as<int>() == 12345);
But symbol_type::token() was removed in Bison 3.5 because it relied on
a conversion table. So users had to find other patterns, such as
assert(t.type_get() == by_type(token::INTLIT).type_get());
which relies on several private implementation details.
As part of transitioning from "token type" to "token kind", and making
this a public and documented interface, "by_type" was renamed
"by_kind" and "type_get()" was renamed as "kind()". The latter had
backward compatibility mechanisms, not the former.
In Bison 3.6 none of this should be used, but rather
assert(t.kind() == symbol_kind::S_INTLIT);
Reported by Pramod Kumbhar.
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-05/msg00012.html
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (by_type): Make it an alias to by_kind.
I don't plan to fix everything in one go. But this was in the way of
the next commit.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java: Avoid space before parens.
* tests/java.at: Adjust.
Bison emits strings to translate in the generated code, for builtin
tokens. So they appear only in generated parsers, which are not
shipped, so they are not in the src tree, so we cannot use them in our
POTFILE.
Except src/parse-gram.c, which is in the source tree. And even in the
git repo. But to avoid useless diffs in the repo, we do not keep the
src/parse-gram.c _with_ the #lines. This is done in a dist-hook which
regenerates src/parse-gram.c when we run "make dist".
Unfortunately, then, update-po traverses the whole tree and sees that
the location of the strings to translate in src/parse-gram.c have
changed, so the bison.pot is to be updated. And that is not possible
in the "make dist" which is run within "make distcheck"
(not the one preparing the dist for distcheck, the one run by
distcheck to check that a distributed tarball can build a tarball)
because then the src tree is read-only.
So let's not put src/parse-gram.c in the POTFILE, and expose these
strings to gettextize by hand.
* src/i18n-strings.c: New.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add it, and remove src/parse-gram.c.
Some people have been using that symbol. Some even have #defined it
themselves.
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bison-patches/2020-04/msg00138.html
Let's provide backward compatibility, having it point to YYUNDEF, so
that an error message is generated.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (YYERRCODE): New, at the exact same location
it was defined before.
These are internal details. `type_get ()` is still there to ensure
backward compatibility, `kind ()` being the modern way.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (by_type, by_type::type): Rename as...
(by_kind, by_kind::kind_): this.
Adjust dependencies.

I'm quite pleased to see that the tricky case of glr.c was already

yet, it is actually syntax_error that becomes a special case of the

* tests/calc.at: Check cases for the error token symbols before and
