using typedef instead of defining it as a macro. POSIX requires this.
For consistency, YYLTYPE is also declared instead of defined.
%union directives can now have a tag before the `{', e.g., the
directive `%union foo {...}' now generates the C code
`typedef union foo { ... } YYSTYPE;'; this is for Yacc compatibility.
The default union tag is `YYSTYPE', for compatibility with Solaris 9
Yacc. For consistency, YYLTYPE's struct tag is now `YYLTYPE'
instead of `yyltype'.
`yystype' and `yyltype' are now obsolescent macros instead of being
typedefs or tags; they are no longer documented and will be
withdrawn in a future release.
This directory contains the Bison parser generator. See the file INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions. See the file doc/FAQ for frequently asked questions. It was once true that, when installing Bison on Sequent (or Pyramid?) systems, you had to be in the Berkeley universe. This may no longer be true; we have no way to tell. On VMS, you will probably have to create Makefile from Makefile.in by hand. Remember to do `SET COMMAND BISON' to install the data in `BISON.CLD'. VMS and MS-DOS builds are probably broken right now. If you are able to build Bison on either platform and you need to make changes to do so, please submit those changes as a bug report. Send bug reports to bug-bison@gnu.org. Please include the version number from `bison --version', and a complete, self-contained test case in each bug report. If you have questions about using Bison which the documentation does not answer, send mail to help-bison@gnu.org.
