+ * src/parse-gram.c, src/parse-gram.h: Regenerate with 2.0.
+
+ * tests/torture.at (Exploding the Stack Size with Alloca): Set
+ YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA to 1 if __GNUC__ or alloca are defined;
+ otherwise, we're not testing alloca. Unfortunately there's no

+
+ * data/lalr1.cc (yydestruct_): Pacify unused variable warning
+ for yymsg, too.

+ (YYSTACK_ALLOC): Define only if YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA is nonzero.

+ (parser::state_type, parser::semantic_type, parser::location_type):
+ Private, not public.
+ (parser::parse): Return ints, not bool.
+ Returning a bool introduces a problem: 0 corresponds to false, and

+ the conventions for yyparse.
+ Alternatively we could return void and send an exception.
+ There is no clear consensus (yet?).

+ * data/lalr1.cc (b4_filename_type): New.
+ (position::filename): Use it.

+ included first.
+ Forward declare them before the user code.
+ * tests/Makefile.am (check-local, installcheck-local): Pass

+2004-12-20 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>

+2004-12-17 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ Remove uses of 'short int' and 'unsigned short int'. This raises
+ some arbitrary limits. It uses more memory but nowadays that's
+ not much of an issue.
+
+ This change does not affect the generated parsers; that's a different
+ task, as some users will want to conserve memory there.
+
+ Ideally we should use size_t to represent all object counts, and
+ something like ptrdiff_t to represent signed differences of object
+ counts; but that will require more code-cleanup than I have the
+ time to do right now.
+
+ * src/LR0.c (allocate_itemsets, new_itemsets, save_reductions):

+
+ * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Comment changes.
+ * data/lalr1.cc (yylex): Use #define to select the name of yylex,

+2004-12-15 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ Fix some problems reported by twlevo at xs4all.
+ * src/symtab.c (symbol_new): Report an error if the input grammar

+
+ Simplify the C++ parser constructor.
+
+ * data/lalr1.cc (debug_): Rename as...

+ pseudo namespace.
+ Adjust uses.
+ (b4_parse_param_decl): Remove the leading comma as it is now only
+ called as unique argument list.
+ (Parser::Parser): Remove the constructor accepting a location and

+ Remove from the other ctor the argument for the debugging level.
+ (debug_level_type, debug_level, set_debug_level): New.

+2004-12-14 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/glr.c (struct yyGLRStack): yyerror_range now has 3 items,

+
+ (yyrecoverSyntaxError): Use YYLLOC_DEFAULT instead of assuming

+ first one uniformly. Problem reported by Frank Heckenbach.
+ (YYLLOC_DEFAULT): Use the conventions of yacc.c, so we can
+ use exactly the same macro in both places.
+ (yyerror_range): Now of type yyGLRStackItem, not YYLTYPE,
+ so that the normal-case YYRHSLOC works for the error case too.
+ All uses changed.
+ * data/yacc.c (YYRHSLOC): New macro, taken from glr.c.
+ (YYLLOC_DEFAULT): Use the same macro as glr.c.
