Incorrect definitions of YY_, issued by yacc.c when no parser header is
generated, are removed.
-** Changes in the format of errors and exceptions output
+** Changes in the format of error messages
This used to be the format of many error reports:
foo.y:5.10-25: result type clash on merge function 'merge': <t3> != <t2>
foo.y:4.13-27: previous declaration
+** Header guards (yacc.c, glr.c, glr.cc)
+
+ In order to avoid collisions, the header guards are now
+ YY_<PREFIX>_<FILE>_INCLUDED, instead of merely <PREFIX>_<FILE>.
+ For instance the header generated from
+
+ %define api.prefix "calc"
+ %defines "lib/parse.h"
+
+ will use YY_CALC_LIB_PARSE_H_INCLUDED as guard.
+
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.6.2 (2012-08-03) [stable]

+@cindex Header guard
+The generated header is protected against multiple inclusions with a C
+preprocessor guard: @samp{YY_@var{PREFIX}_@var{FILE}_INCLUDED}, where
+@var{PREFIX} and @var{FILE} are the prefix (@pxref{Multiple Parsers,
+,Multiple Parsers in the Same Program}) and generated file name turned
+uppercase, with each series of non alphanumerical characters converted to a
+single underscore.
+
+For instance with @samp{%define api.prefix "calc"} and @samp{%defines
+"lib/parse.h"}, the header will be guarded as follows.
+@example
+#ifndef YY_CALC_LIB_PARSE_H_INCLUDED
+# define YY_CALC_LIB_PARSE_H_INCLUDED
+...
+#endif /* ! YY_CALC_LIB_PARSE_H_INCLUDED */
+@end example
@end deffn
@deffn {Directive} %defines @var{defines-file}
If the @code{%define} variable @code{api.prefix} is used (@pxref{Multiple
Parsers, ,Multiple Parsers in the Same Program}), for instance @samp{%define
api.prefix x}, then if @code{CDEBUG} is defined, its value controls the
-tracing feature (enabled iff nonzero); otherwise tracing is enabled iff
-@code{YYDEBUG} is nonzero.
+tracing feature (enabled if and only if nonzero); otherwise tracing is
+enabled if and only if @code{YYDEBUG} is nonzero.
