The current routines used to display s/r and r/r conflicts are both
inconvenient from the programmer point of view (they do not use the
warning infrastructure) and for the user (the messages are rather
terse, not necessarily pleasant to read, and because they don't use
the same routines, they look different).
It was due to the belief (dating back to the initial checked-in
version of Bison) that, at some point, POSIX Yacc mandated the format
for these messages. Today, the Open Group's manual page for Yacc,
<http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/yacc.html>,
explicitly states that the format of these messages is unspecified.
See commit be7280480c and
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2002-12/msg00027.html>.
For a discussion on the chosen warning format, see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-09/msg00039.html
In an effort to factor the handling of errors and warnings, use the
Bison warning routines to report these messages.
* src/conflicts.c (conflicts_print): Rewrite with clearer sections
about S/R and then R/R conflicts.
(conflict_report): Remove, inlined in its sole
caller...
(conflicts_output): here.
* tests/conflicts.at, tests/existing.at, tests/glr-regression.at,
* tests/reduce.at, tests/regression.at: Adjust the expected results.
* NEWS: Update.
* src/conflicts.c (conflicts_print): Complain about %expect-rr if not
in GLR mode, regardless of the number of reduce/reduce conflicts.
* tests/conflicts.at (%expect-rr non GLR): New test.
* NEWS: Update.
* src/complain.h : errors_flag variable
* src/complain.c : actual stuff happens here
* src/conflits.c : differentiated SR and RR conflicts
* src/getargs.c : flags_argmatch recognizes the new -Werror format
* origin/maint:
maint: remove useless file
update files to ignore
remove useless include
use locale-indep. c_is* functions for parsing, not isspace, isprint etc
gnulib: update
--help: include a place to report translation issues
tests: style changes
tests: fix push-pull test
yacc.c: style changes
Conflicts:
src/system.h
* src/parse-gram.y: Include "c-ctype.h".
(add_param): Parse with c_isspace, not isspace.
* src/parse-gram.c: Likewise.
* src/scan-gram.l: Include c-ctype.h, not ctype.h.
(SC_ESCAPED_STRING,SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER): Use c_isspace and c_isprint,
not ctype.h's locale-dependent functions.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-08/msg00007.html
shows that it is useful to help users report translation issues.
While at it, include other informative bits that the coreutils shows.
* src/getargs.c (usage): Report more URLs where the user can
refer to.
Mostly copied/pasted from coreutils' emit_ancillary_info function.
GCC seems to be using "deprecated" consistently over "obsoleted", so
use -Wdeprecated rather than -Wobsolete.
* src/complain.h (warnings): Add Wdeprecated.
* src/complain.c (warnings_print_categories): Adjust.
* src/getargs.c: Likewise.
* doc/bison.texi: Document it.
* src/scan-code.l: Use this category for the trailing ';' support.
* tests/actions.at: Adjust expected output.
* src/symtab.c (symbol_check_defined): Undeclared symbols are only
a warning.
* tests/input.at (Undeclared symbols used for a printer or destructor):
Rename as...
(Undefined symbols): this, and check this case.
* NEWS: Doc it.
* data/glr.cc: No longer require %defines.
When it is not given, define the position and location classes instead
of including their headers.
(b4_shared_declarations): Use the original parse-params.
* data/glr.c (b4_shared_declarations): Define only if undefined.
* tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at: No longer force the use of %defines
for glr.cc.
* NEWS: Doc it.
* tests/torture.at (AT_DATA_STACK_TORTURE): M4 style changes to
improve readability.
Fix an assertion which, because of a <= instead of ==, did not check
new_status as visibly meant.
(get_args): New.
* src/scan-skel.l (at_directive_argc, at_directive_argv)
(AT_DIRECTIVE_ARGC_MAX): Rename as...
(argc, argv, ARGC_MAX): these, as there is no possible confusion.
(flags): New.
(QPUTS): Remove, inline its only use.
* src/system.h (obstack_finish0): New.
Use it to simplify several uses.
* src/muscle-tab.h (MUSCLE_INSERTF): New.
* src/muscle-tab.c: Use obstack_printf where simpler.
* src/scan-code.l (show_sub_message, show_sub_messages): Instead of a
Boolean, take a "warnings" argument.
Avoid storing printf-like format strings in a variable, so that GCC
can check them.
* origin/maint:

Basically revert commit 12ce2df60d.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-08/msg00004.html
* data/c.m4, data/glr.c, data/yacc.c (YYID): Remove.
No longer use ARGSUSED.
* src/getargs.c: Restore simpler inclusion of getopt.h (anyway, since
then we now use gnulib which certainly protects us from such issues).
* data/c.m4 (b4_yydestruct_generate, b4_yy_symbol_print_generate):
They no longer need an argument, it has a single possible value.
* data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Adjust.
