* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/glr2.cc,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc, data/skeletons/stack.hh: Use YY_NOEXCEPT
where it helps constructors.
These operators were introduced in "c++: add move assignments to the
symbol type" (fdaedc780a) for glr2.cc.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Define them for glr2.cc only.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Don't define obsolete identifiers in the case
of glr2.cc. Let's not start with technical debt.
* data/skeletons/glr2.cc, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc,
* data/skeletons/variant.hh: Use token_kind_type, not token_type.
* tests/c++.at, tests/local.at: Use value_type, not semantic_type.
Using #define YYSTYPE has always been strongly discouraged in C++.
Macros are dangerous and can result in subtle bugs.
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-12/msg00007.html
Maybe some people are currently using #define YYSTYPE. Instead of
dropping support right now, first issue a warning. Bison can "see" if
YYDEBUG is defined (it could even be on the command line), only the
compiler knows. Unfortunately `#warning` is non-portable, and
actually GCC even dies on it when `-pedantic` is enabled. So we need
to use `#pragma message`. We must make it conditional as some
compilers might not support it, but it doesn't matter if only _some_
compilers emit the warning: it should be enough to catch the attention
of the developers.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Issue a warning when the user defined
YYSTYPE.
* tests/actions.at: Don't #define YYSTYPE.
* tests/headers.at (Several parsers): Ignore the YYSTYPE in the
warning.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (b4_yytranslate_define): Use static_cast
rather than the YY_CAST macro.
Avoids the need to define YY_CAST in the header.
* data/skeletons/glr2.cc: Fix calls to b4_shared_declarations: pass
the type of file we are in.
Don't define YYTRANSLATE.
(parser::yytranslate_): New, as in lalr1.cc.
Adjust to use it.
* tests/glr-regression.at: Adjust.
We always refer to the triplet "kind, value, location". All of them
are nouns, and we support api.value.type and api.location.type. On
this regard, "semantic_type" was a poor choice. Make it "value_type".
The test suite was not updated to use value_type, on purpose, to
enforce backward compatibility.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/glr.cc, data/skeletons/glr2.cc,
* data/skeletons/variant.hh, doc/bison.texi: Define value_type rather
than semantic_type.
Add a backward compatibility typedef.
* examples/c++/glr/c++-types.yy: Migrate.
* maint:
c++: shorten the assertions that check whether tokens are correct
c++: don't glue functions together
lalr1.cc: YY_ASSERT should use api.prefix
c++: don't use YY_ASSERT at all if parse.assert is disabled
c++: style: follow the Bison m4 quoting pattern
yacc.c: provide the Bison version as an integral macro
regen
style: make conversion of version string to int public
%require: accept version numbers with three parts ("3.7.4")
yacc.c: fix #definition of YYEMPTY
gnulib: update
doc: fix incorrect section title
doc: minor grammar fixes in counterexamples section
This is a fork of glr.cc to be c++-first instead of a wrapper around
glr.c.
* data/skeletons/glr2.cc: New.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4, data/skeletons/c++.m4: Adjust.
* data/skeletons/c.m4 (b4_user_args_no_comma): New.
* src/reader.c (grammar_rule_check_and_complete): glr2.cc is C++.

* tests/input.at, tests/local.at, tests/regression.at, tests/scanner.at,

* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/lalr1.d,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.java, data/skeletons/yacc.c:
Be more accurate about yychar and yytoken.
Don't name local variables as if they were members.

While at it, modernize filename_type as api.filename.type and document
it properly.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (filename_type): Rename as...
(api.filename.type): this.
Default to const std::string.
* data/skeletons/location.cc (position, location): Expose the
filename_type type.
Use api.filename.type.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document api.filename.type.
(C++ Location Values): Document position::filename_type.
* src/muscle-tab.c (muscle_percent_variable_update): Ensure backward
compatibility.
* tests/c++.at: Check that using const file names is ok.
tests/input.at: Check backward compat.
This should have been done in 3.6, but I wanted to avoid introducing
conflicts into Vincent's work on counterexamples. It turns out it's
completely orthogonal.

Plus minor changes.
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.
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.
symbol_type::token () was removed: it returned the token kind of a
symbol. To do that, one needs to convert from the symbol kind to the
token kind, which requires a table.
This broke some users' unit tests for scanners, see
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-01/msg00001.htmlhttps://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-bison/2020-03/msg00020.htmlhttps://lists.gnu.org/r/help-bison/2020-04/msg00005.html
Instead of making this possible again, let's check the symbol's kind
instead. So give proper access to a symbol's kind.
That feature existed, undocumented, as 'type_get()'. Let's rename
this as 'kind()'.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/glr.cc,
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (type_get): Rename as...
(kind): This.
(type_get): Install a backward compatibility alias.
* doc/bison.texi (Complete Symbols): Document symbol_type and
symbol_type::kind.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Define the old names in terms on the new
ones, instead of the converse.
* doc/bison.texi (C++ Parser Interface): Be more extensive about
token_kind_type.
I have been hesitating a lot before doing it ---after all the user
must not use this kind, so what's the point of showing it in
yytoken_kind_t. And eventually I chose to play it safe with the
typing system and make it possible to use yytoken_kind_t for all the
tokens, even the "empty token".
* data/skeletons/c.m4: Give an id and a tag to YYEMPTY.
(b4_token_enums): Define YYEMPTY.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (b4_token_enums): Define YYEMPTY.
* data/skeletons/glr.c, data/skeletons/glr.cc, data/skeletons/yacc.c:
(YYEMPTY): Remove.
Use b4_symbol(-2, id) instead.
* data/skeletons/bison.m4 (b4_symbol_kind): Dispatch on the UNDEF
token number rather than its name.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/c.m4, data/skeletons/java.m4:
Comment changes.
A forthcoming commit (tokens: properly define the "error" token kind)
revealed a problem in the C++ generated headers: they are not
self-contained. With this file:
%language "c++"
%define api.value.type variant
%code {
static int yylex (yy::parser::semantic_type *lvalp);
}
%token <int> X
%%
exp:
X { printf ("x\n"); }
;
%%
void
yy::parser::error (const std::string& m)
{
std::cerr << m << '\n';
}
static
int yylex (yy::parser::semantic_type *lvalp)
{
static int const input[] = {yy::parser::token::X, 0};
static int toknum = 0;
return input[toknum++];
}
int
main (int argc, char const* argv[])
{
yy::parser p;
return p.parse ();
}
the generated header fails to compile cleanly (foo.cc just #includes
the generated header):
$ clang++-mp-9.0 -c -Wundefined-func-template foo.cc
In file included from foo.cc:1:

Refer to the "kind" of a symbol, not its "type", where appropriate.
Because of the insane current implementation of glr.cc, things are a
bit nasty. We will rename symbol_number_type as symbol_type_type
later, to keep this commit small.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (b4_declare_symbol_enum): New.
Also define YYNTOKENS to avoid type clashes when yyntokens_ was
actually defined in another enum.
Use it.
(symbol_number_type): Be an alias of symbol_type_type.
Use YYSYMBOL_YYEMPTY and the like.
Use symbol_number_type where appropriate.
(empty_symbol): Remove.
(yytranslate_): Use symbol_number_type, not token_number_type.
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc: Use symbol_number_type where appropriate.
Adjust to the replacement of empty_symbol by YYSYMBOL_YYEMPTY.
(yy_error_token_, yy_undef_token_, yyeof_, yyntokens_): Remove.
Adjust dependencies.
* data/skeletons/glr.cc: Use symbol_number_type where appropriate.
Forward definitions of YYSYMBOL_YYEMPTY, etc. to glr.c.
* tests/headers.at: Accept YYNTOKENS and other YYSYMBOL_*.
* tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE(c++)): Use symbol_number_type.
Another breakage revealed by vcsn.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (yytranslate_): Do not hard code "yy" and
"parser", both can be changed by the user.
Actually, since we are in the parser itself, there's really no need to
qualify the type.
It is not used. And its implementation was wrong when api.token.raw
was defined, as it was still mapping to the external token numbers,
instead of the internal ones. Besides it was provided only when
api.token.constructor is defined, yet always declared.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4 (by_type::token): Remove, useless.

The cast is needed when yytranslate_'s argument type is token_type,
i.e., when api.token.constructor is defined.

It is because it is expected that when api.token.constructor is
defined, only symbol constructors will be used, that yytranslate_ then
takes a token_type. But it is wrong: we still allow literal
characters in this case, as demonstrated by test 373 for instance.
%define api.value.type variant
%define api.token.constructor
%token <std::pair<int, int>> '1' '2';

static yy::parser::symbol_type yylex ()
{
static char const input[] = "12";
int res = input[toknum++];
typedef yy::parser::symbol_type symbol;
if (res)
return symbol (res, std::make_pair (res - '0', res - '0' + 1));
else
return symbol (res);
}
So let yytranslate_ always take an int, which makes the cast truly
useless.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4, data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (yytranslate_): here.
The C++ implementation of LAC did not skip the $undefined token,
probably because it was not exposed. Expose it, and use clearer
names.
* data/skeletons/c++.m4: Don't define undef_token_ in yytranslate_,
but...
* data/skeletons/lalr1.cc (yy_undef_token_): here.
Use a more precise type to define yy_undef_token_ and yy_error_token_.
Unfortunately we move from a compile-time value defined via an enum to
a static const member. Eventually we should make it constexpr.
Make LAC implementation more alike yacc.c's one.
