(letter): Now includes '-' and '.', since this is for Bison
identifiers.
(id): Now the simpler traditional defn, since letters now include
'-' and '.'.
(c_letter, c_id): New defns.
(ref): Use c_id for unbracketed IDs.
(<SC_RULE_ACTION>): Simplify, now that the distinction between
Bison and unbracketed IDs are now in the regular expressions.
(VARIANT_BAD_BRACKETING): Remove.
(VARIANT_NOT_VISIBLE_FROM_MIDRULE): Renumber.
(find_prefix_end): Remove, replacing with ....
(identifier_matches): New function.

trailing context.

arg TEXTLEN.  Remove arg DOLLAR_OR_AT.  All callers changed.

* src/symlist.h: Likewise.

diagnostics to match new behavior.  The same errors are caught,

because the symbol name was parsed as the empty string, that
message was followed immediately by a newline instead of a symbol
name.  In reality, this is a syntax error, so the reference is

14 years agoAllow specification of semantic predicates.
Paul Hilfinger [Fri, 23 Jul 2010 02:08:10 +0000 (19:08 -0700)] 
Allow specification of semantic predicates.

These changes allow users to prefix an action with %? to indicate that it
is a semantic predicate---an expression that is evaluated immediately (not
deferred, even in GLR nondeterministic mode) and causes a syntax error if
false.  In GLR parsers, this has the effect of killing one of a set of
split-off parses, just as would an ordinary syntax error.

Changelog:

    * NEWS: Describe new semantic-predicate feature.
    * data/c.m4 (b4_predicate_case): New definition.
    * data/java.m4 (b4_predicate_case): New definition.
    * data/glr.c (yyimmediate): Add definition.

    (yyglrReduce): Alter comment to indicate that semantic values
    need not be deferred.
    Remove YY_REDUCE_PRINT from here; done in yydoAction.
    (yyprocessOneStack): Pass immediate flag.
    Delete stacks rejected by predicates in newly split-off parsers.
    Change handling of yyerr so that only current stack gets deleted
    when semantic predicate fails.
    (yyfillin): Don't crash if a semantic value is unresolved (as may
    happen in predicate rules).
    Copy lr state as well in debugging mode.
    Update comment on setting of yysval to include yyloc as well.
    (yy_reduce_print): Add yynormal argument.  Perform fillin properly.

terminate, M4 sometimes saw fwrite fail with errno=EPIPE and
then reported it.  However, there's some sort of race condition,

14 years agoportability: `<' and `>' are not always defined on addresses.
Joel E. Denny [Tue, 29 Dec 2009 17:43:26 +0000 (12:43 -0500)] 
portability: `<' and `>' are not always defined on addresses.

Specifically, don't sort objects by their memory addresses when
they're not allocated in the same array or other object.  Though
I haven't found a test case where that fails on my platform, C
says the behavior is undefined.
* src/AnnotationList.c (AnnotationList__insertInto): Remove
FIXME.  Use new id field of InadequacyList nodes rather than
their memory addresses when sorting.
(AnnotationList__compute_from_inadequacies): Add
inadequacy_list_node_count argument to pass to
InadequacyList__new_conflict.
* src/AnnotationList.h
(AnnotationList__compute_from_inadequacies): Update prototype
and documentation for new argument.
* src/InadequacyList.c (InadequacyList__new_conflict): Add
node_count argument and use it to assign a unique ID.
* src/InadequacyList.h (InadequacyListNodeCount): New typedef.
(InadequacyList): Add id field.
(InadequacyList__new_conflict): Update prototype and
documentation for new argument.
* src/ielr.c (ielr_compute_annotation_lists): Update
AnnotationList__compute_from_inadequacies invocation.

15 years agoFix handling of yychar manipulation in user semantic actions.
Joel E. Denny [Sun, 20 Dec 2009 07:22:53 +0000 (02:22 -0500)] 
Fix handling of yychar manipulation in user semantic actions.

The problem was that yacc.c didn't always update the yychar
translation afterwards.  However, other skeletons appear to be
fine.  glr.c appears to already translate yychar before every
use.  lalr1.cc does not define yychar and does not document its
replacement, yyla, for users.  It does provide yyclearin, but
that does not manipulate yyla and thus requires no translation
update.  In lalr1.java, yychar is out of scope during semantic
actions.
* NEWS (2.5): Document.
* data/yacc.c (YYBACKUP): Don't bother translating yychar into
yytoken here.
(yyparse, yypush_parse): Instead, translate before every use of
yytoken, and add comments explaining this approach.
* tests/actions.at (Destroying lookahead assigned by semantic
action): New test group checking that translation happens before
lookahead destructor calls at parser return.  Previously,
incorrect destructors were called.
* tests/conflicts.at (parse.error=verbose and consistent
errors): New test group checking that translation happens at
syntax error detection before the associated verbose error
message and the associated lookahead destructor calls.  While
the destructor call is fixed by this patch, the verbose error
message is currently incorrect due to another bug (see
comments in test group), so this is an expected failure for now.
