The yylex function can use this +table to recognize multiple-character string tokens, or for other +purposes. + +* The %no_lines declaration says not to generate any #line preprocessor +directives in the parser file. + +* The %raw declaration says to use internal Bison token numbers, not +Yacc-compatible token numbers, when token names are defined as macros. + +* The --no-parser option produces the parser tables without including +the parser engine; a project can now use its own parser engine. +The actions go into a separate file called NAME.act, in the form of +a switch statement body. + Changes in version 1.23: -The user can define YYPARSE_PARAM as the name of an argument to be passed - into yyparse. The argument should have type void *. - It should actually point to an object. - Grammar actions can access the variable by casting it - to the proper pointer type. - -Error in printing reductions fixed. +The user can define YYPARSE_PARAM as the name of an argument to be +passed into yyparse.
