** Warnings

Also, it is possible to add code to the parser's constructors using
"%code init" and "%define init_throws".
-** C++ skeleton improvements
+** C++ skeletons improvements
+
+*** parser header (%defines) is no longer mandatory (lalr1.cc)
+
+ In which case, if needed, the support classes are defined in the generated
+ parser, instead of additional files (location.hh, position.hh and
+ stack.hh).
+
+*** locations are no longer mandatory (lalr1.cc, glr.cc)
+
+ Both lalr1.cc and glr.cc no longer require %location.

+*** syntax_error exception (lalr1.cc)
The C++ parser features a syntax_error exception, which can be
thrown from the scanner or from user rules to raise syntax errors.
YYERROR) if the expression evaluates to 0, and are evaluated immediately
in GLR parsers, rather than being deferred. The result is that they
allow the programmer to prune possible parses based on the values of

-** Future changes
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.6.2 (2012-08-03) [stable]
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+ Buffer overruns, complaints from Flex, and portability issues in the test
+ suite have been fixed.
+
+** Spaces in %lex- and %parse-param (lalr1.cc, glr.cc)
+
+ Trailing end-of-lines in %parse-param or %lex-param would result in
+ invalid C++. This is fixed.
+
+** Spurious spaces and end-of-lines
+
+ The generated files no longer end (nor start) with empty lines.
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.6.1 (2012-07-30) [stable]
+
+ Bison no longer executes user-specified M4 code when processing a grammar.
+
+** Future Changes
+
+ In addition to the removal of the features announced in Bison 2.6, the
+ next major release will remove the "Temporary hack for adding a semicolon
+ to the user action", as announced in the release 2.5. Instead of:
+
+ exp: exp "+" exp { $$ = $1 + $3 };
+
+ write:
+
+ exp: exp "+" exp { $$ = $1 + $3; };
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+*** Type names are now properly escaped.
+
+*** glr.cc: set_debug_level and debug_level work as expected.
+
+*** Stray @ or $ in actions
+
+ While Bison used to warn about stray $ or @ in action rules, it did not
+ for other actions such as printers, destructors, or initial actions. It
+ now does.
+
+** Type names in actions
+
+ For consistency with rule actions, it is now possible to qualify $$ by a
+ type-name in destructors, printers, and initial actions. For instance:
+
+ %printer { fprintf (yyo, "(%d, %f)", $<ival>$, $<fval>$); } <*> <>;
+
+ will display two values for each typed and untyped symbol (provided
+ that YYSTYPE has both "ival" and "fval" fields).
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.6 (2012-07-19) [stable]
+
+** Future changes:
The next major release of Bison will drop support for the following
deprecated features. Please report disagreements to bug-bison@gnu.org.
-*** K&C parsers
+*** K&R C parsers
Support for generating parsers in K&R C will be removed. Parsers
generated for C support ISO C90, and are tested with ISO C99 and ISO C11
because existing versions of ylwrap (e.g., Automake 1.12.1) do not support
it.
