3 This directory contains Bison skeletons: the general shapes of the
4 different parser kinds, that are specialized for specific grammars by
5 the bison program.
6
7 Currently, 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
20 These skeletons are the only ones supported by the Bison team.
21 Because the interface between skeletons and the bison program is not
22 finished, *we are not bound to it*. In particular, Bison is not
23 mature enough for us to consider that ``foreign skeletons'' are
24 supported.
