* data/bison.m4 (b4_percent_define_get_kind): New.
(b4_variant_flag): Check that api.value.type is defined as the 'variant'
keyword value.
* data/c.m4 (_b4_value_type_setup_keyword): New.
(b4_value_type_setup): Use it to simplify reading.

* doc/bison.texi: Adjust all the examples to the new syntax.
* NEWS: Ditto.
* tests/types.at: Adjust
Instead of generating invalid C code, generate an error when --yacc and
'%define api.value.type union' are used together.
* data/bison.m4: Issue an error in this case.
* tests/types.at (%yacc vs. %define api.value.type union): New, check this
error.
* doc/bison.texi (Type Generation): Document it.
* tests/output.at: Check that '-o y.tab.c' and '-y' behave equally
wrt generated file names.
* NEWS (Use of YACC='bison -y'): New.
Promote the use of 'bison -o y.tab.c'.
* data/c.m4 (b4_symbol_type_register, b4_type_define_tag)
(b4_symbol_value_union, b4_value_type_setup_union)
(b4_value_type_setup_variant, b4_value_type_setup):
New.
(b4_value_type_define): Use it to set up properly the type.
Handle the various possible values of api.value.type.
* data/c++.m4 (b4_value_type_declare): Likewise.
* data/lalr1.cc (b4_value_type_setup_variant): Redefine.
* tests/types.at: New.
Exercise all the C/C++ skeletons with different types of
api.value.type values.
* tests/local.mk, tests/testsuite.at: Use it.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document api.value.type.
* NEWS: Advertise it, together with api.token.constructor.
* tests/c++.at, tests/input.at: Use "%define api.namespace {foo}" instead
of using quotes.
* tests/local.at (AT_SETUP_STRIP, AT_NAME_PREFIX): Recognize uses of
braces instead of quotes.
* doc/bison.texi: Use braces for api.namespace's values.
It would be a pity to warn the users against Bison features...
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2013-02/msg00107.html
* src/complain.h, src/complain.c (Wall): Disable Wyacc.
(Weverything): New (hidden so far) category which really denotes all
the categories (what used to be Wall).
(warnings_args, warnings_types): Adjust.
(warning_argmatch): Now !none = Weverything and conversely, no longer Wall.
* NEWS, doc/bison.texi, src/getargs.c: Adjust the documentation.
* tests/input.at (-Werror is not affected by -Wnone and -Wall): Adjust
by not using a -Wyacc type of warning.
* doc/bison.texi (Grammar Rules): Make it a @section which
contains...
(Rules Syntax): this new subsection (with the previous contents of
"Grammar Rules".
(Empty Rules): New subsection, extracted from the former
"Grammar Rules".
Document %empty.
(Recursion): New a subsection of "Grammar Rules".
Complete a few index entries.
(Bison Options): Document -Wempty-rule.
This is based on what is recommended by both Scott Meyers, in 'Effective
C++', and Andrei Alexandrescu and Herb Sutter in 'C++ Coding Standards'.
Use a static_cast on void* rather than directly use a reinterpret_cast,
which can have nefarious effects on objects. However, even though following
this guideline is good practice in general, I am not quite sure how relevant
it is when applied to conversions from POD to objects. Actually, it might
very well be the opposite: isn't this exactly what reinterpret_cast is for?
What we really want *is* to transmit the memory map as a series of bytes,
which, if I am correct, falls into the kind of "low level" hack for which
this cast is meant.
In any case, this silences the warning, which will be greatly appreciated by
anyone using variants with a compiler supporting -fstrict-aliasing.
* data/variant.hh (as): Here.
* tests/c++.at (Exception safety, C++ Variant-based Symbols, Variants):
Don't use NO_STRICT_ALIAS_CXXFLAGS (revert commit ddb9db15), as type punning
is no longer an issue.
* tests/atlocal.in, configure.ac (NO_STRICT_ALIAS_CXXFLAGS): Remove
definition.
* examples/local.mk (NO_STRICT_ALIAS_CXXFLAGS): Remove from AM_CXXFLAGS.
* doc/bison.texi: Don't mention type punning issues.
The new warning category "precedence" flags useless precedence and
associativity. -Wprecedence can now be used, it is disabled by default.
The warnings about precedence and associativity are grouped into one, and
the testsuite was corrected accordingly.
* src/complain.h (warnings): Introduce "precedence".
* src/complain.c (warnings_print_categories): Adjust.
* src/getargs.c (warnings_args, warning_types): Likewise.
* src/symtab.h, src/symtab.c (print_associativity_warnings): Remove.
* src/symtab.h (register_assoc): Correct arguments.
* src/symtab.c (print_precedence_warnings): Print both warnings together.
* doc/bison.texi (Bison options): Document the warnings and provide an
example.
* tests/conflicts.at, tests/existing.at, tests/local.at,
* tests/regression.at: Adapt the testsuite for the new category
(-Wprecedence instead of -Wother where appropriate).
Record which symbol associativity is used, and display useless ones.
* src/symtab.h, src/symtab.c (register_assoc, print_assoc_warnings): New
* src/symtab.c (init_assoc, is_assoc_used): New
* src/main.c: Use print_assoc_warnings
* src/conflicts.c: Use register_assoc
* tests/conflicts.at (Useless associativity warning): New.
Due to the new warning, many tests had to be updated.
* tests/conflicts.at tests/existing.at tests/regression.at:
Add the associativity warning in the expected results.
* tests/java.at: Fix the java calculator's grammar to remove a useless
associativity.
* doc/bison.texi (mfcalc example): Fix associativity to remove
warning.
* doc/Doxyfile.in: Let doxygen upgrade it.
(INCLUDE_PATH): Point to lib too.
(PROJECT_BRIEF): New.
(EXCLUDE): Update to reflect the current file hierarchy.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Use @deffn instead of @table, it
spares a lot of width, especially in PDF, and looks nicer in the other
formats too.
It is also more consistent with the rest of the document.
This is consistent with the other %define variable names.
* data/java.m4: Use api.value.type instead of stype.
* doc/bison.texi, NEWS: Document that change.
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_variable_update): Provide backward
compatibility.
* tests/java.at: Adjust.
* data/c.m4 (b4_token_enum): Improve comments.
(b4_value_type_define, b4_location_type_define): New, extracted
from...
(b4_declare_yylstype): here.
Separate the typedefs from the union/struct definitions.
