Use YYMAXDEPTH for maximum stack size given that + the stack should never need to grow larger than the main state + stack needs to grow without LAC. + (YY_LAC_ESTABLISH): Update yy_lac invocation. + (yy_lac): Add arguments for exploratory stack memory data + recorded in the main parser. Invoke yy_lac_stack_realloc when + reallocation is necessary. + (yysyntax_error): Add the same new arguments and pass them to + yy_lac. + (yypstate_delete): Free yyes if necessary. + (yyesa, yyes, yyes_capacity): #define these to yypstate members + in the case of push parsing. + (yyparse, yypush_parse): Initialize yyes and yyes_capacity. + Update yysyntax_error invocations. At yyreturn, free yyes if + necessary. + * src/parse-gram.y: %define parse.lac full. + * tests/input.at (LAC: errors for %define): Extend for + parse.lac-memory-trace. + * tests/regression.at (LAC: Exploratory stack): Extend to check + that stack reallocs happen when expected. + (LAC: Memory exhaustion): Update to use YYMAXDEPTH and + parse.lac.es-capacity-initial. + +2010-12-11 Joel E. Denny + + parse.lac: implement as %define variable. + LAC = lookahead correction. See discussion at + . + However, one point there must be corrected: because of %nonassoc, + LAC is *not* always redundant for lr.type=canonical-lr. + * data/yacc.c: Accept values of "none" (default) or "full" for + parse.lac. Accept %define parse.lac.es-capacity to specify + capacity of LAC's temporary exploratory stack. It defaults to 20 + and, for now, will not grow dynamically. + (b4_lac_flag, b4_lac_if): New m4 macros. Evaluate as true for + parse.lac!=none. + (YYBACKUP): Invoke YY_LAC_DISCARD. + (YY_LAC_ESTABLISH, YY_LAC_DISCARD): New cpp macros that invoke + yy_lac and track when it needs to be invoked + (yy_lac): New function that, given the current stack, determines + whether a token can eventually be shifted. Return status mimics + yyparse return status. + (yysyntax_error): Change yystate argument to yyssp so stack top + can be passed to yy_lac. If LAC is requested, build expected + token list by invoking yy_lac for every token instead of just + checking the current state for lookaheads. Return 2 if yy_lac + exhausts memory. + (yyparse, yypush_parse): Use local variable yy_lac_established and + cpp macros YY_LAC_ESTABLISH and YY_LAC_DISCARD to implement LAC. + Update yysyntax_error invocation. Add yyexhaustedlab code if LAC + is requested. + * tests/conflicts.at (%nonassoc and eof): Extend to check the + effect of each of -Dlr.type=canonical-lr and -Dparse.lac=full. + (parse.error=verbose and consistent errors): Likewise. + (LAC: %nonassoc requires splitting canonical LR states): New test + group demonstrating how LAC can fix canonical LR. + * tests/input.at (LAC: Errors for %define): New test group. + * tests/regression.at (LAC: Exploratory stack): New test group. + (LAC: Memory exhaustion): New test group. + +2010-11-21 Joel E.

Denny + + yysyntax_error: fix for consistent error with lookahead. + * NEWS (2.5): Document. + * data/yacc.c (yysyntax_error): In a verbose syntax error + message while in a consistent state with a default action (which + must be an error action given that yysyntax_error is being + invoked), continue to drop the expected token list, but don't + drop the unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead. + Moreover, handle that internally instead of returning 1 to tell + the caller to do it. With that meaning of 1 gone, renumber + return codes more usefully. + (yyparse, yypush_parse): Update yysyntax_error usage. Most + importantly, set yytoken to YYEMPTY when there's no lookahead. + * data/glr.c (yyreportSyntaxError): As in yacc.c, don't drop the + unexpected token unless there actually is no lookahead. + * data/lalr1.cc (yy::parser::parse): If there's no lookahead, + pass yyempty_ not yyla.type to yysyntax_error_. + (yy::parser::yysyntax_error_): Again, don't drop the unexpected + token unless there actually is no lookahead. + * data/lalr1.java (YYParser::parse): If there's no lookahead, + set yytoken to yyempty_ before invoking yysyntax_error. + (YYParser::yysyntax_error): Again, don't drop the unexpected + token unless there actually is no lookahead. + * tests/conflicts.at (parse.error=verbose and consistent + errors): Extend test group to further reveal how the previous + use of the simple "syntax error" message was too general. Test + yacc.c, glr.c, lalr1.cc, and lalr1.java. No longer an expected + failure. + * tests/java.at (AT_JAVA_COMPILE, AT_JAVA_PARSER_CHECK): Move + to... + * tests/local.at: ... here. + (_AT_BISON_OPTION_PUSHDEFS): Push AT_SKEL_JAVA_IF definition. + (AT_BISON_OPTION_POPDEFS): Pop it. + (AT_FULL_COMPILE): Extend to handle Java. + +2010-11-07 Joel E.

Denny + + * ChangeLog: Correct some errors in previous entries. + +2010-10-17 Joel E.
