+
+ Fix bug that mistakes braced code in a declaration in the rules section
+ to be a rule action. Mentioned at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00105.html>.
+ * src/scan-gram.l: Move midrule action detection from the start of the
+ scanning of any braced code to...
+ * src/parse-gram.y (rhs): ... the parsing of braced code as a rule
+ action. For readability, use $2 and @2 rather than the equivalent
+ global variables.
+ * tests/regression.at (Braced code in declaration in rules section):
+ New test to catch the error fixed by the above patch.
+
+ Work on code readability some.
+ * src/scan-code.l (current_rule): Get rid of this misleading and
+ redundant declaration: it's actually extern'ed in reader.h.
+ (YY_DECL, code_lex, handle_action_dollar, handle_action_at,
+ translate_action): Add a rule argument and use it instead of the global
+ current_rule.
+ (translate_rule_action): This already receives current_rule through an
+ argument, so pass it on to translate_action instead of assigning
+ current_rule to current_rule.
+ (translate_symbol_action, translate_code): Pass rule = NULL to
+ translate_action.
+
+2006-06-23 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Rename %before-definitions to %start-header and %after-definitions to
+ %end-header. Don't use these declarations to separate pre-prologue
+ blocks from post-prologue blocks. Add new order-independent
+ declarations %before-header and %after-header as alternatives to the
+ traditional Yacc pre-prologue and post-prologue blocks. Discussed at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00110.html>.
+ * NEWS (2.3+): Update for these changes.
+ * data/glr.c (b4_before_definitions): Update to...
+ (b4_start_header): ... this.
+ (b4_after_definitions): Update to...
+ (b4_end_header): ... this.
+ * data/glr.cc: Likewise.
+ * data/lalr1.cc: Likewise.
+ * data/yacc.c: Likewise.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (The prologue): Update names, and replace remaining
+ prologue blocks with %*-header declarations.
+ (Calc++ Parser): Likewise.
+ (Bison Declaration Summary): Update names.
+ (Bison Symbols): Update description.
+ * src/parse-gram.y (PERCENT_AFTER_DEFINITIONS): Update to...
+ (PERCENT_END_HEADER): ... this.
+ (PERCENT_BEFORE_DEFINITIONS): Update to...
+ (PERCENT_START_HEADER): ... this.
+ (PERCENT_AFTER_HEADER, PERCENT_BEFORE_HEADER): New tokens.
+ (declaration): Update token names and m4 macro names.
+ When parsing %end-header and %start-header, invoke translate_code
+ before muscle_code_grow, and no longer set global booleans to remember
+ whether these declarations have been seen.
+ Parse new %after-header and %before-header.
+ * src/reader.c (before_definitions, after_definitions): Remove.
+ (prologue_augment): Accept a new bool argument to specify whether to
+ augment the pre-prologue or post-prologue.
+ * src/reader.h (before_definitions, after_definitions): Remove these
+ extern's.
+ (prologue_augment): Add new bool argument.
+ * src/scan-gram.l (PERCENT_AFTER_DEFINITIONS): Update to...
+ (PERCENT_END_HEADER): ... this.
+ (PERCENT_BEFORE_DEFINITIONS): Update to...
+ (PERCENT_START_HEADER): ... this.
+ (PERCENT_AFTER_HEADER, PERCENT_BEFORE_HEADER): New tokens.
+ * tests/actions.at (Printers and Destructors): Update names.
+
+2006-06-22 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Add comparison operators for C++ location classes. Discussed at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00092.html>.
+ * data/c++.m4 (b4_define_location_comparison): New boolean %define
+ declaration indicating whether filename_type has an operator==. If
+ filename_type is `std::string', it defaults to `1', `0' otherwise.
+ * data/location.cc: Iff b4_define_location_comparison is `1', add
+ operator== and operator!= for class position and for class location.
+
+ Some minor fixes.
+ * src/scan-action.l: Remove unused file.
+ * src/symtab.c (symbol_printer_set): Use printer_location not
+ destructor_location.
+ * src/symtab.h (struct symbol): Replace incorrect source comment for
+ printer members.
+ * tests/input.at (Incompatible Aliases): Update output with correct
+ printer location.

+
+ Don't put the pre-prologue in the header file. For the yacc.c code
+ file and the glr.c header and code files, move the pre-prologue before
+ the token definitions. Add new %before-definitions and
+ %after-definitions to declare code that will go in both the header file
+ and code file. Discussed at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2005-12/msg00000.html>,
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-01/msg00016.html>,
+ and
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00055.html>.
+ * NEWS (2.3+): Describe these changes.
+ * data/glr.c (b4_pre_prologue): Move from within to before...
+ (b4_shared_declarations): ... this.
+ Add new b4_before_definitions before b4_token_enums.
+ Add new b4_after_definitions at the end.
+ * data/glr.cc (b4_pre_prologue): Replace with...
+ (b4_before_definitions): ... this in the header file.
+ (b4_after_definitions): New near the end of the header file.
+ * data/lalr1.cc (b4_pre_prologue): Move from the header file to the
+ code file right before including the header file.
+ (b4_before_definitions): New in the previous position of
+ b4_pre_prologue in the header file.
+ (b4_after_definitions): New near the end of the header file.
+ * data/yacc.c: Clean up some m4 quoting especially in the header file.
+ (b4_token_enums_defines): In the code file, move to right before
+ YYSTYPE for consistency with the header file.
+ (b4_before_definitions): New right before b4_token_enums_defines in
+ both the header and code file.
+ (b4_after_definitions): New right after YYLTYPE and yylloc in both the
+ header and code file.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Prologue): Show use of %before-definitions instead
+ of prologues for %union dependencies.
+ (Bison Declaration Summary): In %defines description, mention the
+ effect of %before-definitions and %after-definitions on the header
+ file.
+ (Calc++ Parser): Forward declare driver in a %before-definitions rather
+ than in the pre-prologue so that make check succeeds.
+ (Bison Symbols): Add entries for %before-definitions and
+ %after-definitions.
+ * src/parse-gram.y (PERCENT_BEFORE_DEFINITIONS): New token for
+ %before-definitions.
+ (PERCENT_AFTER_DEFINITIONS): New token for %after-definitions.
+ (declaration): Parse those declarations and append to
+ b4_before_definitions and b4_after_definitions, respectively.
+ * src/reader.c (before_definitions, after_definitions): New bools to
+ track whether those declarations have been seen.
+ (prologue_augment): Add to the post-prologue if %union,
+ %before-definitions, or %after-definitions has been seen.
+ * src/reader.h (before_definitions, after_definitions): New extern's.
+ * src/scan-gram.l: Scan the new declarations.
+ * tests/actions.at (_AT_CHECK_PRINTER_AND_DESTRUCTOR): Place the second
+ prologue block in a %before-definitions or a %after-definitions based
+ on whether the %union is declared.
+ * tests/regression.at (Early token definitions with --yacc, Early token
+ definitions without --yacc): Move tests for token definitions into the
+ post-prologue since token names are no longer defined in the
+ pre-prologue.
+
+2006-06-20 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
+
+ * src/symtab.h, src/symtab.c (symbol_from_uniqstr): New.
+ (symbol_get): Use it.
+ * src/parse-gram.y: Use it.
+
+2006-06-19 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * src/scan-gram.l: Remove unused declaration of last_string_1 so the
+ build succeeds when configured with --enable-gcc-warnings.
+
+2006-06-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * src/parse-gram.y (char_name): New function.
+ (CHAR, STRING, string_content): For %printer, properly escape.
+ (ID): Prefer fputs to fprintf.
+ (id): Reindent to be consistent with other rules.
+ Properly quote char.
+
+ The Translation Project changed its way of publishing translations
+ to maintainers. I haven't received any responses to my request
+ for supporting the old way, or for documenting the new way. I
+ have modified 'bootstrap' to use screen scraping
+ (in this case, HTML scraping). This is unreliable and inelegant,
+ but I don't see any better way. Yuck.
+ * bootstrap (TP_URL, WGET_COMMAND): New vars.
+ (get_translations): New function, which uses HTML scraping to
+ deduce locations of latest translations.
+ Use this function to grab both bison and bison-runtime .po files.
+ Don't bother priming the pump for the runtime-po domain any more,
+ as it's now translated better than bison is.
+
+2006-06-19 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
+
+ * src/scan-gram.l: No longer "parse" things after `%union' until
+ `{'. Rather, return a single "%union" token.
+ No longer make symbols: return strings, and leave the conversion
+ to symbols to the parser.
+ (SC_PRE_CODE, token_type): Remove.
+ * src/parse-gram.y (%union): New field `character'.
+ Sort tokens.
+ (CHAR): New token.
+ (ID, ID_COLON): Now that the scanner no longer makes them
+ identifiers, adjust all uses to invoke symbol_get.
+ (id_colon): New, wraps the conversion from string to symbol.
+ (%union): Accept a possible union_name.
+ (symbol): Now can be a char.
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_union_name): Leave a default value.
+ * data/glr.c, data/yacc.c: Use it.
+
+2006-06-11 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ For associating token numbers with token names for "yacc.c", don't use
+ #define statements unless `--yacc' is specified; always use enum
+ yytokentype. Most important discussions start at:
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2005-09/msg00053.html>,
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2005-12/msg00052.html>,
+ and
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-06/msg00043.html>.
+ * NEWS (2.3+): Mention.
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_yacc_if): New.
+ (b4_token_enums_defines): Use b4_yacc_if to decide whether to add the
+ token #define's.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Bison Options): Describe the effect of `--yacc'
+ on token name definitions.
+ * src/getargs.c (usage): Capitalize `Yacc' in English.
+ * src/output.c (prepare): Define b4_yacc_flag.
+ * tests/regression.at (Early token definitions): Test that tokens names
+ are defined before the pre-prologue not just before the post-prologue.
+ Remove this test case and copy to...
+ (Early token definitions with --yacc): ... this to test #define's.
+ (Early token definitions without --yacc): ... and this to test enums.

+2006-06-11 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * NEWS: Reword the post-2.3 change to not be so optimistic about
+ removing the old "look-ahead" spelling.
+ Update previous look-ahead/lookahead change reports.
+ * REFERENCES: look-ahead -> lookahead (since that's
+ what he actually wrote).
+ * doc/refcard.tex: look ahead -> lookahead,
+ look-ahead -> lookahead
+
+2006-06-09 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ For consistency, use `lookahead' instead of `look-ahead' or

+
+2006-06-06 Akim Demaille <akim@epita.fr>
+
+ Extract the parsing of user actions from the grammar scanner.
+ As a consequence, the relation between the grammar scanner and
+ parser is much simpler. We can also split "composite tokens" back
+ into simple tokens.
+ * src/gram.h (ITEM_NUMBER_MAX, RULE_NUMBER_MAX): New.
+ * src/scan-gram.l (add_column_width, adjust_location): Move to and
+ rename as...
+ * src/location.h, src/location.c (add_column_width)
+ (location_compute): these.
+ Fix the column count: the initial column is 0.
+ (location_print): Be robust to ending column being 0.
+ * src/location.h (boundary_set): New.
+ * src/main.c: Adjust to scanner_free being renamed as
+ gram_scanner_free.
+ * src/output.c: Include scan-code.h.

+ Use boundary_set.
+ (PERCENT_DESTRUCTOR, PERCENT_PRINTER, PERCENT_INITIAL_ACTION)
+ (PERCENT_LEX_PARAM, PERCENT_PARSE_PARAM): Remove the {...} part,
+ which is now, again, a separate token.
+ Adjust all dependencies.
+ Whereever actions with $ and @ are used, use translate_code.
+ (action): Remove this nonterminal which is now useless.
+ * src/reader.c: Include assert.h, scan-gram.h and scan-code.h.
+ (grammar_current_rule_action_append): Use translate_code.
+ (packgram): Bound check ruleno, itemno, and rule_length.
+ * src/reader.h (gram_in, gram__flex_debug, scanner_cursor)

+
+ Between Bison releases, manually append `+' to the previous Bison

+ ChangeLog's CVS Id keyword from --version. Discussed starting at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bison-patches/2006-05/msg00028.html>.
+ * ChangeLog: Add Id header.
+ * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Append `+' to `2.3'.
+ * src/.cvsignore: Add revision.c.
+ * src/Makefile.am (bison_SOURCES): Add revision.c and revision.h.
+ (BUILT_SOURCES): Add revision.c.
+ (revision.c): New target rule. This file defines a new global variable
+ named revision. It initializes it with either the Id from ChangeLog
+ or, if VERSION doesn't contain `+', with the empty string.
+ * src/getargs.c (version): Print the value of revision.
+ * src/revision.h: Extern revision.
+
+2006-06-05 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * NEWS: Version 2.3.
+ * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Likewise.
+
+2006-05-30 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/glr.c (YYRECOVERING): Define to be a function-like macro
+ with no arguments, not as an object-like macro. This is for
+ compatibility with data/yacc.c. Problem reported by John P. Hartmann in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00059.html>.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Action Features, Error Recovery, Table of Symbols):
+ Document this.
+
+2006-05-30 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * src/getargs.c (usage): Back out yesterday's modification of the
+ --help output so that we don't have to wait for translation before
+ releasing 2.3.
+
+2006-05-29 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Don't say "GLR grammar".
+ Problem reported by Akim Demaille.
+
+2006-05-29 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * src/getargs.c (usage): Mention GLR not just LALR(1) in --help output.
+
+2006-05-26 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/yacc.c (yy_reduce_print): Omit trailing white space in
+ generated source code. Problem reported by Frans Englich in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00049.html>.
+
+2006-05-22 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * Makefile.maint (gzip_rsyncable, GZIP_ENV): Compute within the
+ shell, not within 'make', so that 'make' by an ordinary builder
+ (using GNU make) does not worry about configuring gzip. This also
+ works around a bug reported independently by Keith Thompson and by
+ Georg Schwarz, whereby gzip 1.2.4 --help would output usage on
+ stderr rather than stdout, messing up the build logs.
+
+2006-05-21 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * data/yacc.c (yyparse): Wrap the final return from yyparse inside YYID
+ to make sure that YYID will never be unused. This fixes a 'make
+ maintainer-check' failure caused by the recent changes to the 'Trivial
+ grammars' test case, which caused g++ 4.1.0 to complain that YYID was
+ not used.
+ * data/glr.c (yyparse): Wrap yyparse's return inside YYID just in case.
+
+2006-05-21 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * data/glr.c (yyresolveLocations): Remove bogus YYASSERT that the
+ state before an empty RHS is always resolved here. Only the location
+ of that state is guaranteed to be resolved, and that's enough. This
+ fixes the remaining bug reported by Derek M. Jones in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00027.html>.
+ * tests/glr-regression.at (Uninitialized location when reporting
+ ambiguity): Test the above case.
+ Also, the embedded comments in this test case claim it checks the case
+ of an empty RHS that has inherited the initial location. However, the
+ corresponding LHS was already resolved, so yyresolveLocations didn't
+ actually have reason to modify it. Fix this by forcing
+ nondeterministic operation at the beginning of the parse.
+
+2006-05-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_yy_symbol_print_generate):
+ (b4_yy_symbol_print_generate): Use 'YYSTYPE const' rather than
+ 'const YYSTYPE', and similarly for YYLTYPE. This fixes one
+ of the bugs reported today by Derek M Jones in
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2006-05/msg00027.html>.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Value Type): Document that YYSTYPE must be
+ defined to be a type name without parens or brackets.
+ (Location Type): Similarly for YYLTYPE.

+
+2006-05-13 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/c.m4 (b4_copyright): Put the special exception for Bison

+
+2006-03-12 Akim Demaille <akim@lrde.epita.fr>
+
+ Apply --prefix to C++ skeletons too: they change the namespace.

+ * src/conflicts.c (solved_conflicts_obstack): Now static.
+
+2006-03-08 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Mention GLR and C++ as on the web
+ page. Say "you can use it" not "you may use it" as on the web page;
+ we're describing capabilities not granting permission.
+
+2006-03-06 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
+
+ * data/glr.c (yyresolveLocations): Rename local variables to avoid
+ shadowing warnings. Use usual patter for iterating through RHS.
+ * tests/glr-regression.at
+ (Uninitialized location when reporting ambiguity):
+ Modify yylex so that it uses its argument, rather than trying
+ to rely on ARGSUSED (which doesn't work for gcc with warnings).
+ const char -> char const.
+
+ * tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/package.m4, maintainer-check-valgrind):

+ ambiguity.
+ * doc/bison.texinfo (Default Action for Locations): Note
+ YYLLOC_DEFAULT's usage for ambiguity locations.
+ (GLR Semantic Actions): Cross-reference those notes.
+
+2006-03-04 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ * tests/glr-regression.at (Leaked semantic values when reporting
+ ambiguity): Remove unnecessary union and type declarations.
+ (Leaked lookahead after nondeterministic parse syntax error): New test

+ * data/glr.c (yyparse): Check for zero stacks remaining before
+ attempting to shift the lookahead so that you don't lose it.
+
+2006-03-02 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Avoid memory leaks by not invoking longjmp in yyreportAmbiguity.
+ * tests/glr-regression.at (Leaked semantic values when reporting
+ ambiguity): New test case.
+ * data/glr.c (yyreportAmbiguity): Invoke yyyerror directly and return
+ yyabort rather than invoking yyFail, which invokes longjmp. Remove the
+ now unnecessary yystackp parameter.
+ (yyresolveValue): Return yyreportAmbiguity's result. Now the necessary
+ destructors can be called.
+
+ * tests/glr-regression.at: Don't invoke bison with `-t' unnecessarily
+ in existing testcases.
+
+2006-03-02 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Don't leak semantic values for parent RHS when a user action cuts the
+ parser, and clean up related code a bit.
+ * tests/glr-regression.at (Leaked merged semantic value if user action
+ cuts parse): Rename to...
+ (Leaked semantic values if user action cuts parse): ... this. Add check
+ for leaked parent RHS values.
+ * data/glr.c (yydestroyGLRState): In debugging output, distinguish
+ between an unresolved state (non-empty chain of semantic options) and
+ an incomplete one (signaled by an empty chain).
+ (yyresolveStates): Document the interface. Move all manipulation of a
+ successfully or unsuccessfully resolved yyGLRState to...
+ (yyresolveValue): ... here so that yyresolveValue always leaves a
+ yyGLRState with consistent data and thus is easier to understand.
+ Remove the yyvalp and yylocp parameters since they are always just
+ taken from the yys parameter. When reporting a discarded merged value
+ in debugging output, note that it is incompletely merged. Document the
+ interface.
+ (yyresolveAction): If resolving any of the RHS states fails, destroy
+ them all rather than leaking them. Thus, as long as user actions are
+ written to clean up the RHS correctly, yyresolveAction always cleans up
+ the RHS of a semantic option. Document the interface.
+
+2006-02-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
