3This directory contains Bison skeletons: the general shapes of the
4different parser kinds, that are specialized for specific grammars by
5the bison program.
6
7Currently, there are only three supported skeletons:
8
9- yacc.c
10 It used to be named bison.simple: it corresponds to C Yacc
11 compatible LALR(1) parsers.
12
13- lalr1.cc
14 Produces a C++ parser class. It is still very experimental, and not
15 yet supported. Please, subscribe to bison-patches@gnu.org.
16
17- glr.c
18 A Generalized LR C parser based on Bison's LALR(1) tables.
19
20These skeletons are the only ones supported by the Bison team.
21Because the interface between skeletons and the bison program is not
22finished, *we are not bound to it*. In particular, Bison is not
23mature enough for us to consider that ``foreign skeletons'' are
24supported.
