This was due to the fact that changecom was not properly restored each time, and macro names appearing in comments were then expanded. Introduce begin/end macros which are easier to match that changecom()/changecom(#). * data/bison.m4 (b4_output_begin, b4_output_end): New. * data/glr.c, data/glr.cc, data/lalr1.cc, data/lalr1.java, * data/location.cc, data/stack.hh, data/yacc.c: Use them. 2012-12-03 Akim Demaille tests: beware of gnulib's need for config.h * tests/skeletons.at, tests/torture.at: Be sure to include config.h where appropriate. 2012-11-30 Akim Demaille gnulib: update * lib/yyerror.c: Include config.h since the following stdio.h might be from gnulib. 2012-11-30 Akim Demaille yacc.c, glr.c: check and fix the display of locations In some case, negative column number could be displayed.

Use @code for function names. 2012-11-29 Akim Demaille doc: improve the index * doc/bison.texi: Fix uses of "deffn" so that the arguments of the directives do not show in the index. Remove a duplicate entry for api.pure. 2012-11-29 Theophile Ranquet doc: introduce api.pure full, rearrange some examples * NEWS: Add entry. * doc/bison.texi (%define Summary): Show the old Yacc behaviour. (Parser Function): Move parse-param examples here. (Pure Calling): Remove parse-param examples. (Error Reporting): Don't show the old behavior, stick to 'full'. 2012-11-29 Theophile Ranquet yacc.c: support "%define api.pure full" This makes the interface for yyerror() pure without the need for a spurious parse_param. * data/yacc.c (b4_pure_if, b4_pure_flag): New definition, accept three states. (b4_yacc_pure_if): Rename as... (b4_yyerror_arg_loc_if): This, and use b4_pure_flag. * tests/actions.at (%define api.pure): Modernize. * test/calc.at (Simple LALR Calculator): Modernize. * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_ARG_LOC_IF): Adjust. 2012-11-26 Theophile Ranquet local.at: improvements * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_FORMALS): Make llocp const.

One is that yylloc should be initialized when possible. Another is that the push parser needs to update yypushed_loc when the user modified it. And if the parser starts by a reduction of an empty, it uses the first location on the stack, which, therefore, must also be initialized to this initial location. This is getting complex, especially since because initializing a global (impure interface) is different from initializing a local variable. To simplify, the local yylloc is not initialized during its definition. * data/c.m4 (b4_yyloc_default_define): Replace by... (b4_yyloc_default): this. Adjust dependencies. * data/glr.cc: Initialize yylloc. * data/yacc.c (b4_declare_scanner_communication_variables): Initialize yylloc during its definition. Don't define yyloc_default. (yypush_parse): The location formal is not const, as we might initialize it. (yyparse): Define yyloc_default. Use it before running the user initial action. Possibly update the first location on the stack, and the pushed location after the user initial action. * tests/actions.at (Initial locations): Check that the initial location is correct. 2012-11-06 Akim Demaille yacc.c, glr.c: a better YY_LOCATION_PRINT * data/c.m4 (b4_yy_location_print_define): New. Now issues "short" locations, e.g., "1.1" instead of "1.1-1.1". Was initially a function, but then we face "static but unused" warnings. Simpler as a macro. * tests/local.at, data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Use it instead of duplicating. * tests/actions.at: Adjust expectations. 2012-11-06 Akim Demaille yacc.c: simplify initialization * data/yacc.c: Fuse the initializations of yyssp, yyss and the like. Remove an obsolete comment: we do initialize these initial stack members (in some cases). 2012-11-05 Akim Demaille doc: formatting changes * doc/bison.texi: In a pointer type. 2012-11-05 Akim Demaille c++: fix position operator signatures * data/location.cc (operator+=, operator-=): Remove const from return type. 2012-11-05 Akim Demaille tests: remove useless location initialization. * tests/glr-regression.at: here. glr.c does initialize yylloc. 2012-11-05 Akim Demaille tests: fix locations in C * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE): Don't display the end of the location if it is not after its beginning. * tests/actions.at, tests/cxx-type.at: Adjust the expected output. 2012-11-05 Akim Demaille tests: handle %parse-param in the generated yyerror * tests/local.at (AT_PARSE_PARAMS): New.

When generating a pure push parser, the initialization of yylval and yylloc may not be visible to the compiler. With warnings enabled, GCC 4.3.6, 4.4.7, 4.5.4, and 4.6.3 report uninitialized uses of yylval/yylloc. Using local pragmas to disable these warnings is not supported before 4.6, and 4.6 does not support it properly. So initialize yylval and yylloc at their definition. Reported by Peter Simons.

Instead we could define YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL as PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL only when the later is defined, but let's avoid stacking CPP on top of M4: rather, use #if (defined PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL && PREFIX_STYPE_IS_TRIVIAL) * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Use YYSTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL, YYSTYPE_IS_DECLARED, YYLTYPE_IS_TRIVIAL and YYLTYPE_IS_DECLARED under their api.prefix-renamed name. 2012-07-04 Akim Demaille tests: portability fixes.

The testsuite in master has shown weird errors for the "Mulitple Parsers" tests: the caller of p5.parse() received some apparently random value, while tracing p5.parse() showed that the function was consistently returning 0. It happens when mixing several parser headers, some generated without %debug, others with. In particular the C++ parser was generated with %debug, i.e., with: #ifndef YYDEBUG # define YYDEBUG 1 #endif and compiled separatedly. Yet, its header was included after the one of another parser, this time without %debug, i.e., with #ifndef YYDEBUG # define YYDEBUG 0 #endif in its header. As a result, the parser was compiled with YYDEBUG set, but its header was used without. Since the layout of the objects are then completely different, boom. Therefore, do not change the value of YYDEBUG. Rather, use it as a default value for DEBUG. * data/c.m4 (b4_YYDEBUG_define): New. (b4_declare_yydebug): Rename as...

This is more consistent with the other packages, and Automake-NG supports only *.texi. * doc/bison.texinfo: Rename as... * doc/bison.texi: this. * doc/Makefile.am, examples/calc++/Makefile.am: Adjust. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: do not output m4 set up. * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS, AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Use a diversion to avoid outputting comments etc. Removes 17k lines from testsuite (10% of the number of lines). 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: use the generic yyerror function. * tests/actions.at (_AT_CHECK_PRINTER_AND_DESTRUCTOR): Factor. Use AT_YYERROR_DEFINE. Therefore, instead of using stdout, use and check stderr. * tests/glr-regression.at (Uninitialized location when reporting ambiguity): Use AT_YYERROR_DEFINE. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: use assert instead of plain abort. * tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at, tests/conflicts.at, * tests/cxx-type.at, tests/glr-regression.at, tests/input.at, * tests/named-refs.at, tests/regression.at, tests/torture.at, * tests/local.at: Prefer assert to abort. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: improve the generic yylex implementation. * tests/local.at (AT_YYSTYPE, AT_YYLTYPE): New. (AT_YYLEX_FORMALS): Use them. (AT_YYLEX_DEFINE): Be independent of the location implementation. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: generalize the compilation macros. * tests/local.at (AT_COMPILE, AT_COMPILE_CXX): If OUTPUT ends with ".o", then append the "natural" extension for the input file (.c or .cc). If there is no source, pass -c. * tests/headers.at, tests/input.at, tests/regression.at: Adjust. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille tests: fix confusion between api.prefix and name-prefix. * tests/local.at (AT_NAME_PREFIX): Take api.prefix into account. (AT_API_PREFIX): Rename as... (AT_API_prefix): this. Do not take %name-prefix into account. Fix misuses. 2012-06-26 Akim Demaille maint: gitignores. 2012-06-25 Akim Demaille yacc: work around the ylwrap limitation. * data/yacc.c (b4_shared_declarations): Include the header guards. Do not include the header in the *.c file, duplicate it. * NEWS (Future Changes): Extend, and announce the forthcoming change about the use of the parser header. 2012-06-22 Akim Demaille tests: more uniformity. * tests/local.at (AT_LEX_FORMALS, AT_LEX_ARGS, AT_LEX_PRE_FORMALS) (AT_LEX_PRE_ARGS): Rename as... (AT_YYLEX_FORMALS, AT_YYLEX_ARGS, AT_YYLEX_PRE_FORMALS) (AT_YYLEX_PRE_ARGS): these, for consistency. (AT_API_PREFIX): Take %name-prefix into account. (AT_YYLEX_PROTOTYPE): New. Use it. * tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at, tests/cxx-type.at: Adjust to use them. 2012-06-22 Akim Demaille tests: handle locations in a more generic way. * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_PROTOTYPE): New. Use it. * tests/cxx-type.at: Extensive revamp to use a more traditional quotation scheme, and to use the generic yyerror implementation. Prefer Autotest macros to CPP macros. * tests/java.at: . 2012-06-22 Akim Demaille tests: handle locations in the generic yyerror functions. * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN, AT_YYERROR_DECLARE) (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE): Handle locations for C and C++. * tests/calc.at: Use it for C++ (as C has extra arguments which are not yet handled by AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS). * tests/actions.at: Adjust. 2012-06-22 Akim Demaille tests: fix AT_CHECK_CALC. * tests/calc.at (AT_CHECK_CALC): Contrary to its documentation, the test was skipped if given a second argument. Unused feature, remove it. 2012-06-22 Akim Demaille tests: improve infrastructure * tests/local.at (AT_LANG): Use c++ instead of cxx for C++. Adjust dependencies. (AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN, AT_YYERROR_DECLARE): Issue nothing for C++/Java. (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE): Use m4_case. (AT_JAVA_COMPILE): Use AT_SKIP_IF. 2012-06-21 Akim Demaille tests: factor. * tests/glr-regression.at, tests/output.at, tests/push.at, * tests/regression.at, tests/torture.at, tests/actions.at: Use AT_YYLEX_* and AT_YYERROR_*. 2012-06-21 Akim Demaille skeletons: minor style changes * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: here. 2012-06-21 Akim Demaille tests: AT_LANG. * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS, AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Define/undefine AT_LANGE (AT_LANG_COMPILE): New. (AT_FULL_COMPILE): Use AT_LANG. 2012-06-21 Akim Demaille c skeletons: factor the declaration of yylloc and yylval. There is one difference: now, even without --defines, we generate extern declarations for these variables. The factoring is worth it. * data/c.m4 (b4_declare_yylstype): Declare them. * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Adjust. 2012-06-21 Akim Demaille news: condemn YYPARSE_PARAM and YYLEX_PARAM. * NEWS: here. (Bison 1.875): Add %parse-param and %lex-param. * doc/bison.texinfo: Spello. 2012-06-20 Akim Demaille maint: regen. * Makefile.am (regen): New target. 2012-06-19 Akim Demaille maint: formatting changes. * NEWS: Fix indentation of code snippets. Untabify. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille tests: support api.prefix. * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS, AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Define AT_API_PREFIX. (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE, AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN, AT_YYLEX_DECLARE_EXTERN) (AT_YYLEX_DEFINE): Use it. * tests/input.at, tests/regression.at, tests/torture.at: Add AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS/POPDEFS. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille tests: pacify font-lock-mode. * tests/local.at: here. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille tests: remove test covered elsewhere. * tests/headers.at (%union and --defines): Remove, pretty useless and insignificant. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille tests: factor the declaration/definition of yyerror and yylex. * tests/local.at (AT_YYERROR_DECLARE, AT_YYERROR_DECLARE_EXTERN) (AT_YYERROR_DEFINE, AT_YYLEX_DECLARE, AT_YYLEX_DECLARE_EXTERN) (AT_YYLEX_DEFINE): New. Must be used inside AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS/POPDEFS pair. * tests/actions.at, tests/conflicts.at, tests/glr-regression.at, * tests/headers.at, tests/input.at, tests/named-refs.at, * tests/regression.at, tests/skeletons.at, tests/synclines.at, * tests/torture.at: Use them. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille regen. 2012-06-17 Akim Demaille tests: portability issues. * tests/calc.at (AT_CALC_MAIN): Missing include reported by Hydra. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille tests: call the parser from another compilation unit. In order to improve the testing of %defines, which exports the interface of the generated parser, change the calc.at tests so that when %defines is passed, main will be in another compilation unit. It loads the generated header. * tests/calc.at (AT_CALC_MAIN): New. Includes the definition of the global variables. Therefore, now declare them from the %requires section of the parser. Adjust to yydebug and yyparse being renamed by %name-prefix. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille glr.c, yacc.c: declare yydebug in the header. * data/c.m4 (b4_declare_yydebug): New. * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c (b4_shared_declarations): Use it. Remove the corresponding code from the parser body. * NEWS: Doc this. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille skeletons: use header guards. * data/glr.c, data/glr.cc, data/yacc.c: here. * NEWS: Document it. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille tests: improve AT_FULL_COMPILE. * tests/local.at: Accept a third argument. Simplify quotation pattern. Calls for better refactoring, but will suffice for a while. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille tests: reorder. * tests/calc.at (power): Move its definition, as a preparation for forthcoming changes. And space changes. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille tests: strengthen the test on generated headers inclusion * tests/headers.at (AT_TEST_CPP_GUARD_H): Accept Bison directives. (Invalid CPP headers): Check glr. 2012-06-15 Akim Demaille yacc.c: instead of duplicating y.tab.h inside y.tac.c, include it. This is already what glr.c and lalr1.cc do. * data/yacc.c: here. 2012-06-13 Akim Demaille yacc.c: factor. yacc.c used to include two almost identical sections: one for the *.h file, and another for the *.c file. The main difference is that in the *.c file we used the yy* names (as %name-prefix is handled by "#define yy* *" before), while the *.hh used * names. Keep only the later. If this is troublesome, b4_shared_declarations can easily take the desired prefix as argument. * data/yacc.c (b4_shared_declarations): New. Use it to factor duplicated declarations. 2012-06-12 Akim Demaille skeletons: factor yacc.c and glr.c. yacc.c and glr.c share common declarations. Their YYLTYPE are exactly equal, and their YYSTYPE are sufficiently alike to be fused (its declaration was protected by YYSTYPE_IS_DECLARED in yacc.c, but not in glr.c). Besides, yacc.c duplicated the definitions of YYLTYPE and YYSTYPE (*.h/*.c). * data/c.m4 (b4_declare_yylstype): New. * data/yacc.c, data/glr.c: Use it. 2012-06-12 Akim Demaille glr.c: minor refactoring. * data/glr.c (b4_shared_declarations): Move from the generated file section, to the M4 prologue. 2012-06-12 Akim Demaille tests: remove all the -On flags. * tests/atlocal.in: Here. Reported by Gilles Espinasse. 2012-06-12 Akim Demaille maint: fix spello. * README-hacking: Here. * THANKS: Reported by Gilles Espinasse. 2012-06-12 Akim Demaille maint: improve release procedure instructions. * gnulib: Update, in particular (README-release). * bootstrap.conf: don't require gendocs, provided by gnu-web-doc-update, provided by readme-release. * README-hacking: Update accordingly. 2012-06-07 Akim Demaille gnulib: update readme-release. * gnulib (readme-release): Now includes the modules it promotes. * bootstrap.conf: Simplify accordingly. 2012-06-07 Akim Demaille maint: cfg.mk: manual title. * cfg.mk (manuel_title): New. 2012-06-07 Akim Demaille maint: cfg.mk: simplify * cfg.mk: Remove bits provided by maint.mk. 2012-06-07 Akim Demaille maint: post-release administrivia * NEWS: Add header line for next release. * .prev-version: Record previous version. * cfg.mk (old_NEWS_hash): Auto-update. 2012-06-05 Akim Demaille version 2.5.1 * NEWS: Record release date. 2012-06-05 Akim Demaille NEWS: prepare for 2.5.1. * NEWS: Be compliant with do-release-commit-and-tag. 2012-06-05 Akim Demaille maint: update release procedure * bootstrap.conf: Request do-release-commit-and-tag and readme-release. * README-hacking: Adjust. 2012-06-05 Jim Meyering maint: fix comment typos Using http://github.com/lyda/misspell-check, massage its output into sed commands to perform the suggested changes. Initially, I filtered out the THRU->Through changes, because that failed to retain capitalization in the grammar token.

This is a frequent request. Recently pointed out by Wei Song, . * data/c.m4 (b4_tocpp, b4_cpp_guard, b4_cpp_guard_open) (b4_cpp_guard_close): New. * data/lalr1.cc, data/location.cc, data/stack.hh: Use them. * TODO (Header Guards): Move to... * NEWS: here. Formatting changes. 2012-05-21 Akim Demaille skeletons: remove support for unused directive. * src/scan-skel.l (@dir_prefix@): Remove support, has never been used, not even in the commit that introduced it, 2b81e969ea04c1a6502928ba7e847ec8ff7dcb2f. 2012-05-21 Akim Demaille lalr1.cc: improve Doxygen documentation. * data/location.cc: Qualify file names with directory name. 2012-05-21 Akim Demaille lalr1.cc: extract stack.hh.

Reported by Stefano Lattarini. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-05/msg00039.html 2012-05-21 Akim Demaille space changes. * src/flex-scanner.h: Indent nested cpp directives. 2012-05-21 Akim Demaille build: do not prototype flex-generated functions. Some versions of Flex, possibly modified by the distribution package maintainers, have incompatible signatures. Since newer versions of Flex prototype their functions, avoid the conflicts in that case. Reported by Stefano Lattarini. . * src/flex-scanner.h (FLEX_VERSION_GT): New. Use it to issue prototypes for flex-generated functions only for versions up to 2.5.31, in accordance with the comment. See commit dc9701e848f27ae64b6ddcf809580998667d60f2. Use it to define yylex_destroy when needed. 2012-05-16 Akim Demaille build: fix ChangeLog generation. * Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): Fix for VPATH builds. 2012-05-14 Akim Demaille Bison 2.5.1_rc1. * NEWS: Update. * src/parse-gram.c, src/parse-gram.h: Regen. 2012-05-11 Akim Demaille tests: save/restore Autotest special files when checking XML support. Currently the test 248, "parse-gram.y: LALR = IELR", fails BISON_TEST_XML is set. * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_CHECK_XML): Belt: Save/restore files. * tests/regression.at (parse-gram.y: LALR = IELR): Suspenders: Don't rely on expout. Each one of these changes suffices. 2012-05-11 Akim Demaille tests: AT_SAVE_SPECIAL_FILES / AT_RESTORE_SPECIAL_FILES. Some of our macros play with expout and other Autotest special files, which may break their callers (e.g., currently TESTSUITEFLAGS='248 BISON_TEST_XML=1' fails). There is already some support for this. Expand it to be ready to use it elsewhere. * tests/local.at (AT_RESTORE_SPECIAL_FILES, AT_SAVE_SPECIAL_FILES) (at_save_special_files, at_restore_special_files): New.

Historically we used config.hin (where everybody else used config.h.in) to please DOS. Now that we use gnulib, there are already tons of files with several dots, especially *.in.h. * configure.ac: Rename config.hin as config.in.h. 2012-05-09 Akim Demaille build: move silent rules. * tests/Makefile.am: In the generation of the test suite. 2012-05-09 Akim Demaille glr.c: reduce variable scopes. * data/glr.c: Where appropriate, fuse variable declarations followed by assignments by variable declarations with a value. Where appropriate, introduce new scopes to limit variable spans. 2012-05-08 Akim Demaille maint: maintainer-release-check. * tests/Makefile.am (maintainer-release-check): New. * Makefile.am (MAINTAINER_CHECKS): New. Support maintainer-release-check. * README-hacking: Document it, and syntax-check too. 2012-05-08 Akim Demaille maint: shush a syntax-check. * cfg.mk: lib/timevar is not planned to be gnulib'ed, as it comes from GCC. 2012-05-08 Akim Demaille maint: prefer "commit message" to "log entry". * README-hacking: here. Suggested by Stefano Lattarini. 2012-05-08 Akim Demaille command line: fix minor leaks. * src/getargs.c (getargs): Free pointers before allocating them new content. 2012-05-08 Akim Demaille maint: we no longer maintain the ChangeLog. * .gitattributes: No need to merge it. * README-hacking: Update release instructions. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille maint: fix the generation of the synclines for bison's parser. * tests/bison.in: Import from master the changes that make this script generate synclines that are independant of the builddir/srcdir user's set up. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille maint: regen. * src/parse-gram.c, src/parse-gram.h: Regen. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille maint: import the xmemdup0 gnulib module. * bootstrap.conf: Require this module. * src/parse-gram.y: Include xmemdup0.h. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille maint: remove left-over gnulib modules. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove pipe-posix. * lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore: Remove files that we no longer use. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille maint: ignore files imported by autopoint. * m4/.gitignore: here. 2012-05-06 Akim Demaille build: AC_PROG_LEX: use more readable variable names. * m4/flex.m4 (AC_PROG_LEX): Prefer LEX_IS_FLEX to FLEX.

It is yydestruct which is used. 2012-05-04 Akim Demaille glr.cc: properly declare locations are const where appropriate. * data/glr.cc (yyerror): The location is const. 2012-05-04 Akim Demaille doc: fix @xref. * doc/bison.texinfo: here. 2012-05-02 Akim Demaille tests: ignore code coverage/profiling failure messages The Hydra buildfarm provides code coverage analysis. For some reason, in some test cases, code coverage data seem to be incompatible, and generate error messages at parser run-time. Ignore these messages so that (i) these tests do pass, (ii) coverage results be provided by Hydra. * tests/local.at (AT_PARSER_CHECK): Ignore messages for failed merges of code coverage/profiling results. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille doc: fix some invalid @ref. * doc/bison.texinfo: Fix incorrect @ref uses. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille build: fix previous commit. * bootstrap: Update from gnulib. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille install-pdf: fix. * gnulib: Fix install-pdf in po/ and runtime-po/.

(%printer): is now documented. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille %printer: support both yyo and yyoutput. lalr1.cc used to support yyo, but not yyoutput. Support both, but document only yyoutput (at least until there is some consensus on this). * data/c.m4 (yy_symbol_value_print): Also support yyo. * data/glr.cc (yy_symbol_value_print_): Support both yyo and yyoutput. * data/lalr1.cc: Also support yyoutput. * doc/bison.texinfo: Explicitly use yyoutput in the examples. * examples/mfcalc/mfcalc.test: Test the -p option. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille doc: mfcalc: demonstrate %printer. * doc/bison.texinfo (Printer Decl): New. Number mfcalc.y snippets so that they are output in the proper order. (The mfcalc Main): Use yydebug. (Debugging): Simplify the text. (Enabling Traces, Mfcalc Traces, The YYPRINT Macro): New. (Table of Symbols): Document YYPRINT and YYFPRINTF. 2012-04-16 Akim Demaille tests: style changes. * tests/input.at: Use "print" in %printer instead of "destroy". It is unused, so we don't care, yet it is less surprising. * tests/actions.at: Comment changes. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille build: require Flex. * configure.ac: Require Flex. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille build: flex.m4: check for Flex. * m4/flex.m4 (_AC_PROG_LEX_YYTEXT_DECL): Check that $LEX supports some of the Flex options, and exclusive start conditions. Define FLEX to 'yes'/'', as AC_PROG_CC does for GCC. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille build: flex.m4: quote properly. * m4/flex.m4: Use quotes more systematically. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille build: flex.m4. * m4/flex.m4: New. An exact copy of what is in Autoconf currently. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille build: autoconf: update. * submodules/autoconf: Update. There are no changes in data/m4sugar/foreach.m4, and the changes in data/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 are minor. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille glr: eliminate last bits of unwanted locations. * data/glr.c (YYLTYPE): Do not define when locations are not demanded. Adjust all dependencies. 2012-04-10 Akim Demaille NEWS: 2.6 will drop K&R. * NEWS: here.

Reorder by "decreasing" order of importance. 2012-04-04 Akim Demaille doc: fix index. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-04/msg00006.html * doc/bison.texinfo: Avoid using @def* variant with more than the defined entity as main entity, as it results in an incorrect index. For instance, don't document {return YYERROR;}, which results in a single index entry "return YYERROR;", but rather as typed function whose return type is "type", and whose argument list is ";". 2012-04-04 Akim Demaille doc: fix documentation of YYERROR. * doc/bison.texinfo (Table of Symbols): Fix the documentation of YYERROR by copying that from "Action Features". 2012-04-01 Akim Demaille c++: more YY_NULL Caught by maintainer-check-g++. * data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/yacc.c, tests/cxx-type.at, * tests/glr-regression.at, tests/push.at: When simple to do, avoid expliciting the null ptr.

Fix several Texinfo misuses. 2012-03-31 Akim Demaille c++: locations: provide convenience constructors. * data/location.cc (position::position): Accept file, line and column as arguments with default values. Always qualify initial line and column literals as unsigned. (location::location): Provide convenience constructors. 2012-03-31 Akim Demaille c++: locations: remove useless "inline". * data/location.cc: "inline" is implicit when defining methods in the class definition. 2012-03-31 Akim Demaille glr: do not use locations when they are not requested When the test suite runs with -O2 and warnings enabled, G++ complains of locations being used, but not initialized. The simplest is to not use locations. * data/glr.c (b4_locuser_formals, b4_locuser_args): New. Use them when locations should not be used. Use b4_locations_if where appropriate. (yyuserAction): Modify the order to the arguments to make it more alike the other routines, and to make use of b4_locuser_args simpler. 2012-03-31 Akim Demaille c++: use nullptr for C++11. C++11 introduces "nullptr" which plays the role of C's NULL, in replacement of "0". Fix the C++ skeletons to avoid warnings about uses of "0" in place of "nullptr", and improve C skeletons to also use this "nullptr" when compiled with a C++11 compiler. * configure.ac: More C++ warnings. * NEWS (2.5.1): Document this. * data/c++.m4, data/c.m4 (b4_null_define): New. (b4_null): Use YY_NULL instead of 0. * data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/location.cc, data/yacc.c: Call b4_null_define/b4_null where appropriate. Use YY_NULL instead of NULL. * data/location.cc (initialize): Accept a default argument, YY_NULL. * tests/actions.at, tests/calc.at: Adjust. * data/glr.c, lib/libiberty.h, src/system.h (__attribute__): Do not disable it when __STRICT_ANSI__ is defined, as, for instance, it disables the __attribute__((unused)) which protects us from some compiler warnings. This was already done elsewhere in Bison, in 2001, see 4a0d89369599a2cea01f4fbdf791f426a02cb5a3. * tests/regression.at: Adjust output. 2012-03-30 Akim Demaille build: simplify and improve the compiler warnings for tests. * configure.ac (warn_common, warn_c, warn_cxx): New. Use them to compute independently the options supported by the C and C++ compilers. Don't AC_SUBST the variables passed to gl_WARN_ADD: it does it for us. (WARN_CFLAGS_TEST, WARN_CXXFLAGS_TEST): Don't aggregate $WARN_CFLAGS and $WARN_CXXFLAGS in them now, leave it to atlocal.in. (O0CFLAGS, O0CXXFLAGS): Move their definition to... * tests/atlocal.in: here. Be more systematic between C and C++. Reorder to factor between variables. Propagate all of the variables when --compile-c-with-cxx. 2012-03-30 Akim Demaille gnulib: update. 2012-03-30 Akim Demaille maint: formatting changes. * src/system.h: Indent CPP directives using cppi. 2012-03-27 Akim Demaille NEWS: update. * NEWS: Java fixes, more about the doc changes, liby issues. 2012-03-27 Tim Landscheidt Java: Fix syntax error handling without error token. * data/lalr1.java (YYParser::parse): Here. * tests/java.at: Add test case. 2012-03-24 Akim Demaille tests: beware of -pedantic on large #line numbers. * tests/local.at (AT_TEST_TABLES_AND_PARSE): Don't pass -pedantic when compiling large canonical-LR parsers. Reported by Tys Lefering. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-03/msg00025.html 2012-03-24 Akim Demaille tests: when using the C++ compiler, use its flags too. * tests/local.at: Go for colors. (--compile-c-with-cxx): New option. We used to pass "CC=$CXX" as command line argument, but it was not possible to adjust CFLAGS accordingly in atlocal, since it is loaded before assignments on the command line are honored (so that the command line takes precedence). * tests/atlocal.in: Implement it. * tests/local.mk: Use it. 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: update the --verbose report format. * doc/bison.texinfo (Understanding): Adjust to match the current format. 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: spell check. * doc/bison.texinfo: here. 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: stmt, not stmnt. * doc/bison.texinfo: s/stmnt/stmt/g. This is a much more common abbreviation for "statement". 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: save width. * doc/bison.texinfo (Language and Grammar): Use the same layout for an example in all the versions, i.e., keep as general case what used to be used only for Info. 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: reformat grammar snippets. * doc/bison.texinfo: Convert the grammar examples to use a narrower style. This helps fitting into the @smallbook constraints. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2012-03/msg00011.html 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: use only @example, not @smallexample. * doc/bison.texinfo: Convert all @smallexamples into @examples. Adjust layout where needed. 2012-03-19 Akim Demaille doc: style changes. * doc/bison.texinfo: Avoid line width issues with TeX. Upgrade ancient messages. Move some comments to better looking places. Add more @group. (Mfcalc Symbol Table): Reduce variable scopes. Prefer size_t for sizes. Prefer declarations with an initial value. Fix a @group environment. 2012-03-19 Paul Eggert doc: minor fixes to "Understanding" section * doc/bison.texinfo (Understanding): Minor wording fixes and improvements. Fixes problems reported in . 2012-03-13 Akim Demaille tests: minor fixes/simplifications * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_CHECK_NO_XML): Simplify sed programs, quotation, and default value assignments. Ensure a proper value to the numeric variables. Reported by Lie Yan. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-03/msg00000.html 2012-03-09 Akim Demaille tests: be robust to quote style. See . * src/main.c (main): Define the quoting style we use. * tests/atlocal.in: Use ASCII style quotes during the tests. 2012-03-09 Akim Demaille maint: update gnulib. * gnulib: update. * src/scan-gram.l: Don't use the (former version of) STREQ. 2012-03-06 Akim Demaille tests: be robust to POSIXLY_CORRECT being defined. * tests/local.at (AT_BISON_CHECK_NO_XML): Check if POSIXLY_CORRECT is defined, not if it is defined to 1. Reported by Lie Yan. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2012-03/msg00000.html 2012-02-23 Akim Demaille doc: fix environment issues. * doc/bison.texinfo: Do not use @verbatim, in particular when we use @group inside. Use @quotation instead of @display for frequently asked questions, it looks much nicer. 2012-02-23 Akim Demaille regen. * src/parse-gram.h, src/parse-gram.c: regen. 2012-02-23 Akim Demaille tests: fix regressions. Exit status 63 is documented for version-mismatch. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Remove sysexits. * src/system.h (EX_MISMATCH): Define. * src/parse-gram.y (version_check): Use it instead of EX_CONFIG. Missing includes. * tests/calc.at, tests/named-refs.at: Include assert.h. 2012-02-21 Akim Demaille glr: fix ambiguity reports. * tests/glr-regression.at (Ambiguity reports): New. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille doc: stylistic improvements. * doc/bison.texinfo: Prefer "continue" to empty loop bodies. Add some @group/@end group to avoid poor page breaks. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: address sc_prohibit_doubled_word. * data/yacc.c, doc/bison.texinfo: Reword to avoid having to disable that check. * cfg.mk: No longer skip this test. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: address sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros. * cfg.mk: No longer skip it, except where EXIT_SUCCESS is used as a witness for stdlib.h. Skip this test when appropriate. * data/yacc.c: Drop a note about why EXIT_SUCCESS is defined here. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: address sc_bindtextdomain, sc_program_name and sc_prohibit_HAVE_MBRTOWC. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Require progname. * src/complain.c, src/getargs.c, src/getargs.h, src/main.c: Use it. * cfg.mk (exclude): New. Use it. Skip lib/main.c for bindtextdomain and set_program_name. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: remove stray file. * config.hin: Remove. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: address some syntax-issues remaining after cherry-picking from master. * cfg.mk: Skip bison generated files, 2.5 is generating trailing blanks. This is already fixed in master. * tests/conflicts.at, tests/java.at: Fix white space issues. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille regen. * src/parse-gram.c, src/parse-gram.h: Regen. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille bitset: fix an incorrect error message. * lib/bitset_stats.c: here. Reported by Stefano Lattarini. 2012-02-19 Jim Meyering maint: reenable sc_m4_quote_check * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Reenable sc_m4_quote_check. * m4/dmalloc.m4: Add quotes. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: remove trailing empty lines. * cfg.mk: No longer skip sc_prohibit_empty_lines_at_EOF, except for parse-gram.h (generated). * examples/mfcalc/.gitignore, lib/.gitignore, m4/.gitignore, * po/.gitignore, runtime-po/.gitignore: Remove trailing/leading empty lines. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: avoid "magic number exit". * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): No longer skip it. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add sysexits. * doc/bison.texinfo, etc/bench.pl.in, src/parse-gram.y, * src/system.h, tests/calc.at, tests/named-refs.at: Use assert where appropriate instead of "if (...) exit". Use symbolic exit status elsewhere. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: fix some syntax-check issues. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove sc_prohibit_quotearg_without_use, sc_prohibit_strcmp, sc_unmarked_diagnostics, sc_useless_cpp_parens. (sc_unmarked_diagnostics): Skip DJGPP. * data/yacc.c, src/LR0.c, src/closure.c, * src/flex-scanner.h, src/gram.c, src/lalr.c, * src/print-xml.c, src/print.c, src/print_graph.c, * src/reader.c, src/reduce.c, src/tables.c: Don't use parens with cpp's defined. Remove useless includes. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: address a couple of syntax-check errors. * cfg.mk (local-checks-to-skip): Remove sc_error_message_period and sc_error_message_uppercase. Address the uncovered issues. * po/POTFILES.in: Add missing files. * src/symtab.c: Remove useless includes. * lib/bitset_stats.c, src/files.c, tests/glr-regression.at: Use conformant error messages. 2012-02-19 Akim Demaille maint: gnulib: upgrade. 2012-02-15 Akim Demaille maint: rely on Automake for parsers. * Makefile.am (AM_YFLAGS): Automake looks for "-d" alone. Move other options in here. (BISON): New. (YACC): Use it. (bison_SOURCES): Now that automake can see `-d' in AM_YFLAGS, we can rely on it to compile and ship the parser header files. Based on commit 737406a32c201471699bfa0843d1f432f3ec29ab and commit 3d6ca339083c278d907c9f030f4ba6bc5ecb07f2. 2012-02-14 Akim Demaille maint: more authors. * AUTHORS: here. Suggested by Tys Lefering. 2012-02-14 Akim Demaille maint: add license headers. * examples/calc++/test, examples/variant.yy, AUTHORS, THANKS, * tests/atlocal.in, tests/bison.in: Add license headers. Reported by Tys Lefering. 2012-02-14 Akim Demaille maint: remove obsolete file. * etc/make-ChangeLogs: Remove (used for rcs to cvs migration!). Reported by Tys Lefering. 2012-02-08 Akim Demaille use a more consistent quoting style. See . Use quotearg as often as possible instead of leaving the choice of the quotes to the translators. Use shorter messages. Factor similar messages to a single format, to make localization easier. * src/files.c, src/getargs.c, src/muscle-tab.c, src/reader.c * src/scan-code.l, src/scan-gram.l, src/symtab.c: Use quote() or quotearg_colon() on printf arguments instead of quotes in the format string. * data/bison.m4: Keep sync with the changes in muscle-tab.c. * tests/skeletons.at, tests/input.at, tests/regression.at: Adjust expected messages. 2012-01-31 Akim Demaille maint: remove stray debug code. * src/Makefile.am (echo): Remove. 2012-01-31 Akim Demaille maint: space changes. * src/Makefile.am: Use 2 leading spaces for variable definition spreading over several lines. 2012-01-31 Akim Demaille maint: more silent-rules. * doc/local.mk, src/local.mk, examples/calc++/Makefile.am: Use $(AM_V_GEN) and $(AM_V_at) where appropriate. 2012-01-31 Jim Meyering do not ignore errors like ENOSPC,EIO when writing to stdout Standard output was never explicitly closed, so we could not detect failure. Thus, bison would ignore the errors of writing to a full file system and getting an I/O error on write, but only for standard output, e.g., for --print-localedir, --print-datadir, --help and some verbose output. Now, "bison --print-datadir > /dev/full" reports the write failure: bison: write error: No space left on device Before, it would exit 0 with no diagnostic, implying success. This is not an issue for "--output=-" or the other FILE-accepting command-line options, because unlike most other GNU programs, an output file argument of "-" is treated as the literal "./-", rather than standard output. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add closeout. * src/main.c: Include "closeout.h". Use atexit to ensure we close stdout. * .gitignore: Ignore new files pulled in via gnulib-tool. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille tests: fix expected output. * tests/actions.at (YYBACKUP): here. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille yacc: fix YYBACKUP. Reported by David Kastrup: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2011-10/msg00002.html. * data/yacc.c (YYBACKUP): Accept rhs size. Restore the proper state value. * TODO (YYBACKUP): Make it... * tests/actions.at: a new test case. * NEWS, THANKS: Update. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille maint: update TODO. * TODO (Labeling the symbols): Remove, it's done ("Name references"). 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille maint: update THANKS. * THANKS: Update Tys's address, on his request. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille maint: fix --gcc-warnings support. * configure.ac: Use enable_gcc_warnings instead of enableval, which is valid only with AC_ARG_ENABLE. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille maint: silent-rules. * configure.ac: Ask for silent-rules support. Enable it by default. 2012-01-26 Akim Demaille maint: remove trailing blanks. * src/scan-code.l: Here. 2012-01-25 Paul Eggert tests: port to Solaris 10 'diff -u' * tests/regression.at (parse-gram.y: LALR = IELR): Port to Solaris 10, where "diff -u X X" outputs "No differences encountered" instead of outputting nothing. Reported by Tomohiro Suzuki in . 2012-01-25 Jim Meyering build: avoid possibly-replaced fprintf in liby-source, yyerror.c * lib/yyerror.c (yyerror): Use fputs and fputc rather than fprintf with a mere "%s\n" format. Always return 0 now, on the assumption that the return value was never used anyway. Don't include after all. This avoids a problem reported by Thiru Ramakrishnan in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-bison/2011-11/msg00000.html * cfg.mk: Exempt lib/yyerror.c from the sc_require_config_h_first test. * THANKS: Update. 2012-01-24 Jim Meyering maint: generate ChangeLog from git log * Makefile.am (gen-ChangeLog): New rule. (dist-hook): Depend on it. (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute the two ChangeLog-* files. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gitlog-to-changelog. (bootstrap_post_import_hook): Ensure that ChangeLog exists. * build-aux/git-log-fix: New file. * ChangeLog-2012: Renamed ... * ChangeLog: ... from this. * ChangeLog-1998: Renamed ... * OChangeLog: ...from this * .gitignore: Add ChangeLog. 2012-01-24 Jim Meyering change more quotes in source, and adjust tests to match Run this command to change each `%s' to '%s' in source directories: git grep -l '`%s'\' src djgpp data \ |xargs perl -pi -e '$q="'\''";s/`%s$q/$q%s$q/g' * data/bison.m4: Affected per the above. * djgpp/subpipe.c: Likewise. * src/files.c: Likewise. * src/getargs.c: Likewise. * src/muscle-tab.c: Likewise. * src/reader.c: Likewise. * tests/glr-regression.at: Adjust to match. * tests/input.at: Likewise. * tests/push.at: Likewise. * tests/skeletons.at: Likewise. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering quote consistently and make tests pass with new quoting from gnulib Updating to gnulib pulled in new quote and quotarg modules, by which quoting is now done like 'this' rather than `this'. That change induces many "make check" test failures. This change adapts code and tests so that "make check" passes once again. * src/scan-code.l: Quote like 'this', not like `this'. * src/scan-gram.l: Likewise. * src/symtab.c: Likewise. * tests/actions.at: Adjust tests to match. * tests/input.at: Likewise. * tests/named-refs.at: Likewise. * tests/output.at: Likewise. * tests/regression.at: Likewise. * lib/.gitignore: Regenerate. * m4/.gitignore: Likewise. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering build: update gnulib and autoconf submodules to latest (cherry picked from commit 728415f885e5cb8e518c8576fa6e1f541e384130) 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering build: manually update bootstrap from gnulib, and adapt Updating to the latest bootstrap from gnulib involves more of a change than usual, and updating to the latest gnulib would involve its own set of challenges with the upcoming quoting changes, so we update bootstrap manually and separately. * bootstrap: Update from gnulib. * lib/Makefile.am: Initialize more variables to empty, so that gnulib.mk can append to them with "+=". * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_mk_hook): Remove. No longer honored. (gnulib_tool_option_extras): Generate gnulib.mk. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering maint: include first * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_require_config_h_first): Exempt data/glr.c and data/yacc.c from the include-config.h-first requirement. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering build: include from lib/yyerror.c * lib/yyerror.c: Include . 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering maint: list djgpp/subpipe.c in po/POTFILES.in * po/POTFILES.in: Add djgpp/subpipe.c. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering maint: placate the space-TAB syntax-check * cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_space_tab): Exempt tests/input.at and tests/c++.at, since they appear to use SP-TAB sequences deliberately. * OChangeLog: Remove space-before-TAB. 2012-01-23 Jim Meyering doc: correct typo: s/can not/cannot/ * doc/bison.texinfo (Bug Reports): s/can not/cannot/ And remove trailing blanks. 2012-01-22 Jim Meyering maint: get gpl-3.0 from gnulib * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gpl-3.0. * doc/gpl-3.0.texi: Remove from version control, now that we get it via gnulib. * doc/.gitignore: Ignore it.
