Akim Demaille d50a3e450e graph: output foo.gv by default, instead of *.dot
That change was started in Bison 3.4.  The announcement for 3.7 stated
that in Bison 3.8 we would use *.gv by default.

* src/files.c (compute_output_file_names): spec_graph_file defaults
too *.gv.
* doc/bison.texi, examples/c++/calc++/local.mk, tests/output.at:
Adjust.

calc++ - A Flex+Bison calculator

This directory contains calc++, a Bison grammar file in C++. If you never saw the traditional implementation in C, please first read examples/c/lexcalc, which can be seen as a C precursor of this example.

Read the corresponding chapter in the documentation: "A Complete C++ Example". It is also available on line (maybe with a different version of Bison).

To use it, copy this directory into some work directory, and run make to compile the executable, and try it. It is a simple calculator which accepts several variable definitions, one per line, and then a single expression to evaluate.

The program calc++ expects the file to parse as argument; pass - to read the standard input (and then hit , control-d, to end your input).

$ ./calc++ -
one := 1
two := 2
three := 3
(one + two * three) * two * three
<Ctrl-d>
42

You may pass -p to activate the parser debug traces, and -s to activate the scanner's.
