-** Unrecognized %code qualifiers are now an error not a warning.
+** LAC (Lookahead Correction) for syntax error handling:

 
 

-** %define improvements.
+  Canonical LR, IELR, and LALR can suffer from a couple of problems
+  upon encountering a syntax error.  First, the parser might perform
+  additional parser stack reductions before discovering the syntax
+  error.  Such reductions can perform user semantic actions that are
+  unexpected because they are based on an invalid token, and they
+  cause error recovery to begin in a different syntactic context than
+  the one in which the invalid token was encountered.  Second, when
+  verbose error messages are enabled (with %error-verbose or the
+  obsolete `#define YYERROR_VERBOSE'), the expected token list in the
+  syntax error message can both contain invalid tokens and omit valid
+  tokens.

 
 

-*** Unrecognized variables are now an error not a warning.
+  The culprits for the above problems are %nonassoc, default
+  reductions in inconsistent states, and parser state merging.  Thus,
+  IELR and LALR suffer the most.  Canonical LR can suffer only if
+  %nonassoc is used or if default reductions are enabled for
+  inconsistent states.

 
 

-*** Multiple invocations for any variable is now an error not a warning.
+  LAC is a new mechanism within the parsing algorithm that solves
+  these problems for canonical LR, IELR, and LALR without sacrificing
+  %nonassoc, default reductions, or state merging.  When LAC is in
+  use, canonical LR and IELR behave almost exactly the same for both
+  syntactically acceptable and syntactically unacceptable input.
+  While LALR still does not support the full language-recognition
+  power of canonical LR and IELR, LAC at least enables LALR's syntax
+  error handling to correctly reflect LALR's language-recognition
+  power.
+
+  Currently, LAC is only supported for deterministic parsers in C.
+  You can enable LAC with the following directive:
+
+    %define parse.lac full

-** Character literals not of length one.
+** Verbose syntax error message fixes:

 
 

-  Previously, Bison quietly converted all character literals to length
-  one.  For example, without warning, Bison interpreted the operators in
-  the following grammar to be the same token:
+  When %error-verbose or the obsolete `#define YYERROR_VERBOSE' is
+  specified, syntax error messages produced by the generated parser
+  include the unexpected token as well as a list of expected tokens.
+  The effect of %nonassoc on these verbose messages has been corrected
+  in two ways, but a more complete fix requires LAC, described above:

 
 

-    exp: exp '++'
-       | exp '+' exp
-       ;
+*** When %nonassoc is used, there can exist parser states that accept no
+    tokens, and so the parser does not always require a lookahead token
+    in order to detect a syntax error.  Because no unexpected token or
+    expected tokens can then be reported, the verbose syntax error
+    message described above is suppressed, and the parser instead
+    reports the simpler message, `syntax error'.  Previously, this
+    suppression was sometimes erroneously triggered by %nonassoc when a
+    lookahead was actually required.  Now verbose messages are
+    suppressed only when all previous lookaheads have already been
+    shifted or discarded.

 
 

-  Bison now warns when a character literal is not of length one.  In
-  some future release, Bison will report an error instead.
+*** Previously, the list of expected tokens erroneously included tokens
+    that would actually induce a syntax error because conflicts for them
+    were resolved with %nonassoc in the current parser state.  Such
+    tokens are now properly omitted from the list.
+
+*** Expected token lists are still often wrong due to state merging
+    (from LALR or IELR) and default reductions, which can both add
+    invalid tokens and subtract valid tokens.  Canonical LR almost
+    completely fixes this problem by eliminating state merging and
+    default reductions.  However, there is one minor problem left even
+    when using canonical LR and even after the fixes above.  That is,
+    if the resolution of a conflict with %nonassoc appears in a later
+    parser state than the one at which some syntax error is
+    discovered, the conflicted token is still erroneously included in
+    the expected token list.  Bison's new LAC implementation,
+    described above, eliminates this problem and the need for
+    canonical LR.  However, LAC is still experimental and is disabled
+    by default.
+
+** Java skeleton fixes:
+
+*** A location handling bug has been fixed.
+
+*** The top element of each of the value stack and location stack is now
+    cleared when popped so that it can be garbage collected.
+
+*** Parser traces now print the top element of the stack.
+
+** -W/--warnings fixes:
+
+*** Bison now properly recognizes the `no-' versions of categories:
+
+  For example, given the following command line, Bison now enables all
+  warnings except warnings for incompatibilities with POSIX Yacc:
+
+    bison -Wall,no-yacc gram.y
+
+*** Bison now treats S/R and R/R conflicts like other warnings:
+
+  Previously, conflict reports were independent of Bison's normal
+  warning system.  Now, Bison recognizes the warning categories
+  `conflicts-sr' and `conflicts-rr'.  This change has important
+  consequences for the -W and --warnings command-line options.  For
+  example:
+
+    bison -Wno-conflicts-sr gram.y  # S/R conflicts not reported
+    bison -Wno-conflicts-rr gram.y  # R/R conflicts not reported
+    bison -Wnone            gram.y  # no conflicts are reported
+    bison -Werror           gram.y  # any conflict is an error
+
+  However, as before, if the %expect or %expect-rr directive is
+  specified, an unexpected number of conflicts is an error, and an
+  expected number of conflicts is not reported, so -W and --warning
+  then have no effect on the conflict report.
+
+*** The `none' category no longer disables a preceding `error':
+
+  For example, for the following command line, Bison now reports
+  errors instead of warnings for incompatibilities with POSIX Yacc:
+
+    bison -Werror,none,yacc gram.y

 
 

-** Verbose error messages fixed for nonassociative tokens.

-  When %error-verbose is specified, syntax error messages produced by

+
+  This bug has been fixed.
+

+
+** Failures in the test suite for some versions of Sun Studio C++ have
+   been fixed.
+
+** Contrary to Bison 2.4.2's NEWS entry, it has been decided that
+   warnings about undefined %prec identifiers will not be converted to
+   errors in Bison 2.5.  They will remain warnings, which should be
+   sufficient for POSIX while avoiding backward compatibility issues.
+
+** Minor documentation fixes.
+
+* Changes in version 2.4.2 (2010-03-20):
+
+** Some portability problems that resulted in failures and livelocks
+   in the test suite on some versions of at least Solaris, AIX, HP-UX,
+   RHEL4, and Tru64 have been addressed.  As a result, fatal Bison
+   errors should no longer cause M4 to report a broken pipe on the
+   affected platforms.
+
+** `%prec IDENTIFIER' requires IDENTIFIER to be defined separately.
+
+  POSIX specifies that an error be reported for any identifier that does
+  not appear on the LHS of a grammar rule and that is not defined by
+  %token, %left, %right, or %nonassoc.  Bison 2.3b and later lost this
+  error report for the case when an identifier appears only after a
+  %prec directive.  It is now restored.  However, for backward
+  compatibility with recent Bison releases, it is only a warning for
+  now.  In Bison 2.5 and later, it will return to being an error.

+  documented for Java parsers and is formally deprecated in both cases.
+  Users are strongly encouraged to migrate to YYERROR, which is
+  specified by POSIX.
+
+  Like YYERROR, you can invoke YYFAIL from a semantic action in order to
+  induce a syntax error.  The most obvious difference from YYERROR is
+  that YYFAIL will automatically invoke yyerror to report the syntax
+  error so that you don't have to.  However, there are several other
+  subtle differences between YYERROR and YYFAIL, and YYFAIL suffers from
+  inherent flaws when %error-verbose or `#define YYERROR_VERBOSE' is
+  used.  For a more detailed discussion, see:
+
+    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-12/msg00024.html
+
+  The upcoming Bison 2.5 will remove YYFAIL from Java parsers, but
+  deterministic parsers in C will continue to implement it.  However,
+  because YYFAIL is already flawed, it seems futile to try to make new
+  Bison features compatible with it.  Thus, during parser generation,
+  Bison 2.5 will produce a warning whenever it discovers YYFAIL in a
+  rule action.  In a later release, YYFAIL will be disabled for
+  %error-verbose and `#define YYERROR_VERBOSE'.  Eventually, YYFAIL will
+  be removed altogether.
+
+  There exists at least one case where Bison 2.5's YYFAIL warning will
+  be a false positive.  Some projects add phony uses of YYFAIL and other
+  Bison-defined macros for the sole purpose of suppressing C
+  preprocessor warnings (from GCC cpp's -Wunused-macros, for example).
+  To avoid Bison's future warning, such YYFAIL uses can be moved to the
+  epilogue (that is, after the second `%%') in the Bison input file.  In
+  this release (2.4.2), Bison already generates its own code to suppress
+  C preprocessor warnings for YYFAIL, so projects can remove their own
+  phony uses of YYFAIL if compatibility with Bison releases prior to
+  2.4.2 is not necessary.
