* data/c++.m4 (~basic_symbol): b4_symbol_foreach works on yysym:
define it.
* tests/c++.at (Variants): Check it.
The previous patches ensure that symbols (symbol_type and
stack_symbol_type) can be empty, cleared, and their emptiness can be
checked. Therefore, yyempty, which codes whether yyla is empty or
not, is now useless.
In C skeletons (e.g., yacc.c), the fact that the lookahead is empty is
coded by "yychar = YYEMPTY", which is exactly what this patch
restores, since yychar/yytoken corresponds to yyla.type.
* data/lalr1.cc (yyempty): Remove.
Rather, depend on yyla.empty ().
During error recovery, when discarding the lookeahead, we don't
destroy it, which is caught by parse.assert assertions.

* tests/c++.at (Variants): Strengthen the test to try syntax errors

The symbol destructor is currently the only means to clear a symbol.
Unfortunately during error recovery we might have to clear the

its end of scope.
Rather that duplicating the code to destroy a symbol, or rather than
destroying and recreating yyla, let's provide a means to clear a
symbol.

Bison supports a union tag, for obscure reasons. But it does a poor
job at it, especially since Bison 3.0.
Reported by Stephen Cameron and Tobias Frost.
It did not ensure that the name was not given several times. An easy
way to do this is to make the %union tag be handled as a %define
variable, as they cannot be defined several times.
Since Bison 3.0, the synclines were wrongly placed, resulting in
invalid code. Addressing this issue, because of the way the union tag
was stored (as a code muscle), would have been tedious. Unless we
rather define the %union tag as a %percent variable, whose synclines
are easier to manipulate.
So replace the b4_union_name muscle by the api.value.union.name
%define variable, document, and check.
* data/bison.m4: Make sure that api.value.union.name has a keyword value.
* data/c++.m4: Make sure that api.value.union.name is not defined.
* data/c.m4 (b4_union_name): No longer use it, use api.value.union.name.
* doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Document it.

api.value.union.name.
* tests/input.at (Redefined %union name): New.

* tests/types.at: Check named %unions.
Reported by Rich Wilson.
* data/c.m4 (b4_symbol_type_register): Append to b4_union_members,
not b4_user_union_members.
The latter invokes the former, but it is the former which is reinitialized
to empty by b4_value_type_setup_union.
* tests/types.at: Check it.
This reveals another bug, this time in the case of glr.c parsers.
* data/glr.c: Generate the header file before the implementation file,
to be sure that the setup is run before what depends on it.
clang, with -DNDEBUG and -Werror fails on some functions that might
lack a return. This is because aver is just another assert, discarded
with -DNDEBUG. So use abort.
* src/muscle-tab.c, src/scan-skel.l: here.
This completes and fixes a728075710.
Reported by Valentin Tolmer.
Before it Bison used to put the properties of the symbols
(associativity, printer, etc.) in the 'symbol' structure. An
identifier-named token (FOO) and its string-named alias ("foo")
duplicated these properties, and symbol_check_alias_consistency()
checked that both had compatible properties and fused them, at the end
of the parsing of the grammar.
The commit a728075710 introduces a
sym_content structure that keeps all these properties, and ensures
that both aliases point to the same sym_content (instead of
duplicating). However, it removed symbol_check_alias_consistency,
which resulted in the non-fusion of *existing* properties:
%token FOO "foo"
%left FOO %left "foo"
was properly diagnosed as a redeclaration, but
%left FOO %left "foo"
%token FOO "foo"
was not, as the properties of FOO and "foo" were not checked before
fusion. It certainly also means that
%left "foo"
%token FOO "foo"
did not transfer properly the associativity to FOO.
The fix is simple: reintroduce symbol_check_alias_consistency (under a
better name, symbol_merge_properties) and call it where appropriate.
Also, that commit made USER_NUMBER_HAS_STRING_ALIAS useless, but left
it.
* src/symtab.h (USER_NUMBER_HAS_STRING_ALIAS): Remove, unused.
Adjust dependencies.
* src/symtab.c (symbol_merge_properties): New, based on the former
symbol_check_alias_consistency.

Reported by Alexandre Duret-Lutz as "second problem" in:

One problem is that some errors are caught early, before the
generation of output files, while others can only be detected
afterwards (since, for instance, skeletons can raise errors
themselves).
This will be addressed in two steps: early errors do not generate
source files at all, while later errors will remove the files that
have already been generated.
* src/scan-skel.l (yyout): Open to /dev/null when there are errors.
* tests/output.at (AT_CHECK_FILES): Factored out of...
(AT_CHECK_OUTPUT): this.
Fuse the "SHELLIO" argument in the "FLAGS" one.
Use $5 to denote the expected exit status.
Add a test case for early errors.
When variant are enabled, the yylhs variable (the left-hand side of
the rule being reduced, i.e. $$ and @$) is explicitly destroyed when
YYERROR is called. This is because before running the user code, $$
is initialized, so that the user can properly use it.
However, when quitting yyparse, yylhs is also reclaimed by the C++
compiler: the variable goes out of scope.
Instead of trying to be too smart, let the compiler do its job: reduce
the scope of yylhs to exactly the reduction. This way, whatever the
type of scope exit (regular, exception, return, goto...) this variable
will be properly reclaimed.
Reported by Paolo Simone Gasparello.
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2013-10/msg00003.html>
* data/lalr1.cc (yyparse): Reduce the scope of yylhs.
* tests/c++.at: We now pass this test.

However, when quitting yyparse, yylhs is also reclaimed by the C++

This was not detected by the test suite because (i) the Object tracker

recovery.

The commit which introduces yyresolveLocations (commit
8710fc41aa) saves and restores the
look-ahead (type, value and location) for no clear reason. This
appears to be useless.
* data/glr.c (yyresolveLocations): Don't save/restore the current

We don't ship the *.txt files that are used to build the info

* doc/local.mk (bison.info): Depend on the txt files.
And ship them.
* tests/c++.at (Exception safety): In variant mode $$ is an instance
of Object. Assigning YY_NULL in C++98 is incorrect, but behaves ok,
as it assigns YY_NULL=0 using Object::operator= (char v). It is wrong
in C++11 as there is operator for "$$ = nullptr".
Again some issues with the fact that yylval is reported by GCC as
possibly not initialized in some cases. Here, the case at hand is the
%destructor.
I am still not convinced that it is worth going all the trouble of
using pragmas to disable temporarily some warnings, instead of just
initializing the looking symbol once for all, but that's what Paul
voted for, see
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-10/msg00050.html>.
* data/c.m4 (b4_attribute_define): Define
YY_IGNORE_MAYBE_UNINITIALIZED_BEGIN, YY_IGNORE_MAYBE_UNINITIALIZED_END,
YY_INITIAL_VALUE here, as we will need them in the generation of the
destructor function, which is defined in yacc.c before yyparse, which
was in charge of defining these macros.
* data/yacc.c (b4_declare_scanner_communication_variables): Simplify:
trying to factor the definitions of the case pure and impure is
too complex.
Actually, it is not even clear that this macro should really exist,
as even the calls are complex.
Be careful not to issue a lone ";", as this is a statement, and C90
forbids declarations after statements ; so write
"YY_INITIAL_VALUE(Decl;)", not "YY_INITIAL_VALUE(Decl);".
There are possible conflicts between gnulib replacement functions (in
<stdio.h>) and their C++ wrappers (in <stream>). Trying to address
these in configure seems too hard, and I don't know how to fix the issue
in gnulib. Cowardly avoid the problem by skipping C++ tests when this
happens.
