We used to emit:
/** Token number,to be returned by the scanner. */
static final int NUM = 258;
/** Token number,to be returned by the scanner. */
static final int NEG = 259;
with no space after the comma. Fix that.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4 (b4_token_format): Quote where appropriate.
The C, C++ and D skeletons used to show the stack right after popping
the stack during the reduction. Now that the stack is printed after
reaching a new state, that has become useless:
Entering state 1
Stack now 0 1
Reducing stack by rule 5 (line 83):
$1 = token "number" (1)
-> $$ = nterm exp (1)
Stack now 0
Entering state 8
Stack now 0 8
Remove the "Stack now 0" line.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java, data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Here.
Currently, if we have long rules and series of shift, we stack states
without showing stack. Let's be more incremental, and do how the Java
skeleton does.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Here.
Adjust test cases.
* tests/torture.at (AT_DATA_STACK_TORTURE): Disable stack traces: this
test produces a very large stack, and showing the stack each time we
shift a token goes quadatric.
The Java skeleton displays
Reading a token:
Next token is token "number" (1)
while the other display
Reading a token: Next token is token "number" (1)
When generating logs in the scanner, the first part is separated from
the second, and the end of the scanner logs have the second part
pasted in. So let's propagate the Java way, but with the colon.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java, data/skeletons/yacc.c: Do it.
Adjust test cases and doc.
* tests/local.at (AT_LANG_MATCH): New.
(AT_YYERROR_DECLARE(java), AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN(java)): New.
* tests/calc.at: The grammar file for Java is quite different for the
others, and continuing to assemble it from pieces makes the grammar
file hard to understand. Let's also dispatch on the language to
assemble it, and isolate Java from the others.
Most of this comes from java.at.
When building the test cases, emitting code in the epilogue is very
constraining. Let's make it simpler thanks to %code epilogue.
However, I don't want to document this: it is bad style to use it (we
should avoid having too many ways to write the same thing,
TI!MTOWTDI), just put your code in the true epilogue section.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.d, data/skeletons/lalr1.java,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: Implement support for %code epilogue.
Remove useless comments.
* tests/calc.at, tests/java.at: Simplify.
Modeled after what was done in yacc.c, yet somewhat different since
yyGLRStack play the role of the full yyparse_context_t. It will
probably be defined as a alias, to make interfaces compatible.
LAC is not supported here. And is somewhat tricky.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (yyexpected_tokens, yysyntax_error_arguments): New.
* data/skeletons/glr.c: Move the handling of error messages after the
definition of types. Especially after yyGLRStack, which we will need
in forthcoming patches.
Simplify: yyGLRStack is defined at this point.
Just as the yacc.c skeleton, the lalr1.cc skeleton should reject
invalid values for parse.lac.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: check validity of parse.lac
* tests/input.at: new test cases
Just as the yacc.c skeleton, the lalr1.cc skeleton should reject
invalid values for parse.lac.

* tests/input.at: new test cases
In addition to
%token NUM "number"
accept
%token NUM _("number")
in which case the token will be translated in error messages.
Do not use _() in the output if there are no translatable tokens.
* src/symtab.h, src/symtab.c (symbol): Add a 'translatable' member.
* src/parse-gram.y (TSTRING): New token.
(string_as_id.opt): Replace with...
(alias): this.
Use it.
* src/scan-gram.l (SC_ESCAPED_TSTRING): New start conditions, to match
TSTRINGs.
* src/output.c (prepare_symbols): Define b4_translatable if there are
translatable strings.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc,
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yytnamerr): Receive b4_translatable, and use it.
"detailed" error messages are almost like "verbose", except that we
don't double escape them, they don't get inner quotes, we don't use
yytnamerr, and we hide the table.
"custom" is exposed with the "detailed" tokens, not the "verbose"
ones: they are not double-quoted.
Because there's a risk that some people use yytname even without
"verbose", let's keep yytname (instead of yys_name) in "simple"
parse.error.
* src/output.c (prepare_symbol_names): Be ready to output symbol names
unquoted.
(prepare_symbol_names): Output both the old tname table, and the new
symbol_names one.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4: Accept 'detailed'.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: When parse.error is 'detailed', don't emit
yytname and yytnamerr, just yysymbol_name with the table inside.
* tests/calc.at: Adjust.
Only parse.error verbose and simple will get the original yytname: the
other options will rely on a different table. So let's move on top of
the yysymbol_name function.
* data/skeletons/c.m4 (yy_symbol_print): Use yysymbol_name.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (yytokenName): Rename as...
(yysymbol_name): this.
The change of naming scheme is unfortunate, but it's definitely glr.c
which is "wrong".
Currently yy_symbol_print is defined before yytokenName, although it
should use it instead of read yytname directly. Move blocks around to
avoid this.
* data/skeletons/glr.c (yy_symbol_print): Move its definition after
that of yytokenName.
Currently we get warnings with GCC 4.8 when running the
maintainer-check-g++ tests:

We could use a cast to avoid the warning, but it becomes too
cluttered. We can also use YYPTRDIFF_T, but that forces the user to
use YYPTRDIFF_T too, although this is an array of tokens, which is
limited by YYNTOKENS, an int. So let's completely avoid this warning.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c, tests/local.at (yyreport_syntax_error): Avoid
relying on sizeof to compute the array capacity.
Enhance the calculator tests: show that passing arguments to yyerror
works.
* tests/calc.at: Add a new parse-param, nerrs, which counts the number
of syntax errors in a run.
* tests/local.at: Adjust to handle the new 'nerrs' argument, when
present.
The custom error reporting function show sees the user's additional
arguments. Let's experiment with passing them as arguments to
yyreport_syntax_error, but maybe storing them in the context would be
a bettter alternative.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yyreport_syntax_error): Handle the
parse-params.
* tests/calc.at, tests/local.at: Adjust.
Provide users with a means to query for the currently allowed tokens.
Could be used for autocompletion for instance.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yyexpected_tokens): New, extracted from
yysyntax_error_arguments.
* examples/c/calc/calc.y (PRINT_EXPECTED_TOKENS): New.
Use it.
When parse.error is custom, let users define a yyreport_syntax_error
function, and use it.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4 (b4_error_verbose_if): Accept 'custom'.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: Implement it.
* examples/c/calc/calc.y: Experiment with it.
That allows users to cover more cases, such as easily filtering some
arguments they don't want to expose. But they now have to call
yysymbol_name explicitly.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yysyntax_error_arguments, yysyntax_error):
Deal with symbol numbers instead of symbol names.
Isolate a function that returns the list of expected and unexpected
tokens. It will be exposed to users willing to customize their error
messages.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yyparse_context_t): New.
(yyerror_message_arguments): New, extracted from yysyntax_error.
Let's have C be the reference, and match it elsewhere. Maybe C is too
verbose and some adjustments are needed, but then that would be done
in another batch of patches.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: Print the stack once we popped after
YYERROR, and before emptying the stack at the end of parsing.
Currently the C and C++ parse traces differ in the order in which the
stack is displayed: bottom up in C, top down in C++. Let's stick to
the C order.
* data/skeletons/stack.hh (stack::iterator, stack::const_iterator)
(begin, end): Be forward, not backward.
Provide the users with a public API to get the name of the tokens. A
thin wrapper around yytname.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c (yysymbol_name): New.
Use it.
Supporting YYERROR_VERBOSE via cpp is a nuisance: m4 is in charge of
handling alternatives. When adding more options for %define
parse.error, supporting both CPP and M4 is too complex. Anyway,
YYERROR_VERBOSE was deprecated long ago.
* data/skeletons/yacc.c: Use m4 only to handle verbose/simple error
messages.
