+
+2009-09-12 Alex Rozenman <rozenman@gmail.com>

+ whitespace more consistent. For the main parse function
+ comment, instead of saying "yyparse or yypush_parse", say either
+ "yyparse" or "yypush_parse" depending on which it actually is.

+ * src/scan-code.h (code_props_rule_action_init): Rename
+ named_ref arg to name so it doesn't shadow named_ref type. This
+ makes it consistent with the function definition in scan-code.l
+ anyway.
+
+2009-08-28 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>

+ Avoid compiler warning.
+
+2009-08-27 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ tests: use perl for printing special sequences to files.
+ And skip tests if perl is not available. This is better than
+ playing tricks with shell portability. Suggested by Akim
+ Demaille.
+ * tests/input.at (Bad character literals): Use it here for
+ omitting final newlines.
+ (Bad escapes in literals): Use it here for special characters.
+
+2009-08-26 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ tests: show a use of %define lr.default-reductions "consistent"
+ * tests/conflicts.at (%nonassoc and eof): Extend to test that it

+
+2009-08-26 Akim Demaille <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+ tests: portability fix.
+ * tests/input.at (Bad escapes in literals): Don't expect "echo
+ '\0'" to output \ then 0.
+
+2009-08-26 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ Actually handle the yytable zero value correctly this time.
+ * data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/lalr1.java, data/yacc.c: Don't
+ mention zero values in the YYTABLE comments.
+ * data/glr.c (yytable_value_is_error): Don't check for zero
+ value.
+ * data/lalr1.cc (yy_table_value_is_error_): Likewise.
+ * data/yacc.c (yytable_value_is_error): Likewise.
+ * data/lalr1.java (yy_table_value_is_error_): Likewise.
+ (yysyntax_error): Fix typo in code: use yytable_ not yycheck_.
+ * src/tables.h: In header comments, explain why it's useless to
+ check for a zero value in yytable.
+
+2009-08-25 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ More fixes related to last two patches.
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_table_value_equals): Comment that YYID must be
+ defined.
+ * data/glr.c, data/lalr1.cc, data/lalr1.java, data/yacc.c: Fix
+ yytable comments: zero indicates syntax error not default
+ action.
+ * data/glr.c (yyis_pact_ninf): Rename to...
+ (yypact_value_is_default): ... this.
+ (yyisDefaultedState): Update for rename.
+ (yyis_table_ninf): Rename to...
+ (yytable_value_is_error): ... this, and check for value zero
+ besides just YYTABLE_NINF.
+ (yygetLRActions): Check for default value from yypact. It
+ appears that this check is always performed before this function
+ is invoked, and so adding the check here is probably redundant.
+ However, the code may evolve after this subtlety is forgotten.
+ Also, update for rename to yytable_value_is_error. Because that
+ macro now checks for zero, a different but equivalent branch of
+ the if-then-else here is evaluated.
+ (yyreportSyntaxError): Update for rename to
+ yytable_value_is_error. The zero condition was mishandled
+ before.
+ (yyrecoverSyntaxError): Update for renames. No behavioral
+ changes.
+ * data/lalr1.cc, data/lalr1.java (yy_pact_value_is_default_):
+ New function.
+ (yy_table_value_is_error_): New function.
+ (parse): Use new functions where possible. No behavioral
+ changes.
+ (yysyntax_error_, yysyntax_error): Use yy_table_value_is_error_.
+ The zero condition was mishandled before.
+ * data/yacc.c (yyis_pact_ninf): Rename to...
+ (yypact_value_is_default): ... this.
+ (yyis_table_ninf): Rename to...
+ (yytable_value_is_error): ... this, and check for value zero
+ besides just YYTABLE_NINF.
+ (yysyntax_error): Update for rename to yytable_value_is_error.
+ The zero condition was mishandled before.
+ (yyparse): Update for renames. No behavioral changes.
+ * src/tables.h: Improve comments about yypact, yytable, etc.
+ more. Most importantly, say yytable value of zero means syntax
+ error not default action.
+
+2009-08-25 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ Fix %error-verbose for conflicts resolved by %nonassoc.
+ * NEWS (2.5): Document.

+
+2009-08-25 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>

+2009-08-21 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ Use locale when quoting.
+ * src/scan-gram.l (SC_ESCAPED_STRING, SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER): Use
+ quote rather than implementing quoting here.
+
+2009-08-20 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
+
+ Make previous patch more robust.
+ * src/output.c (ARRAY_CARDINALITY): New macro, copied from
+ argmatch.h.
+ (output_skeleton): Use it.
+ Suggested by Akim Demaille.
+
+ Import latest m4/m4.m4.
+ * submodules/autoconf: Update to autoconf 2.64.

+2009-08-19 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@clemson.edu>
+
+ Fix complaints about escape sequences.
+ Discussed starting at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2009-08/msg00036.html>.
+ * src/scan-gram.l (SC_ESCAPED_STRING, SC_ESCAPED_CHARACTER):
+ For a \0 and similar escape sequences meaning the null
+ character, report an invalid escape sequence instead of an
+ invalid null character because the latter does not actually
+ appear in the user's input.
+ In all escape sequence complaints, don't escape the initial
+ backslash, and don't quote when the sequence appears at the end
+ of the complaint line unless there's whitespace that quotearg
+ won't escape.
+ Consistently say "invalid" not "unrecognized".
+ Consistently prefer "empty character literal" over "extra
+ characters in character literal" warning for invalid escape
+ sequences; that is, consistently discard those sequences.
+ * tests/input.at (Bad escapes in literals): New.

+ (prepare_percent_define_front_end_variables): ... this new

+ Make length test more readable, and make the character stored
+ for an empty literal more obvious while consistent with the
+ previous behavior.
+
+ * src/symtab.c, src/symtab.h: Rename USER_NUMBER_ALIAS to
+ USER_NUMBER_HAS_STRING_ALIAS throughout.
+ * src/symtab.c (symbol_make_alias): Remove comment from symtab.c

+
+ -F/--force-define and relative %define/-D/--define priorities.
+ * NEWS (2.5): Add documentation to -D/--define entry.
+ * build-aux/cross-options.pl: Hard-code association of
+ --force-define with %define.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Decl Summary): In %define entry,

+ (Bison Options): Add documentation to -D/--define entry.
+ (Option Cross Key): Widen column for --force-define row.
+ * src/getargs.c (usage): Document -F/--force-define. Realign
+ options in output.
+ (short_options, long_options, getargs): Parse -F/--force-define,
+ and update muscle_percent_define_insert invocation.

+
+ Handle a trailing `:' in a user-supplied C++ namespace better.
+ * data/c++.m4 (b4_namespace_close): Don't let it be printed
+ among the closing braces here. This fix might make the

+ insignificant because a trailing `:' is a C++ error already.
+
+2009-05-19 Akim Demaille <demaille@gostai.com>
+
+ remove useless variable.
+ * src/getargs.c (skeleton_arg): Remove now useless variable.

+ * src/files.c (tr): Move to...
+ * src/getargs.c, src/getargs.h (tr): ... here because I can't
+ think of a better place to expose it. My logic is that, for all
+ uses of tr so far, command-line arguments can be involved, and
+ getargs.h is already included.
+ * src/main.c (main): Update access.
+ * src/muscle_tab.c (muscle_percent_define_insert): Convert old
+ variable names to new variable names before assigning value.
+ * src/reader.c (reader): Update setting default.
