A diff.gz file was added. -- Frank B. Brokken Thu, 6 Jul 2006 12:41:43 +0200 bisonc++ (1.01) unstable; urgency=low * Synchronized the version back to numbers-only, adapted the debian standards and the required bobcat library in the debian/control file. No implementation changes as compared to the previous version, but I felt the need to join various sub-sub-versions back to just one standard version. -- Frank B. Brokken Mon, 26 Jun 2006 12:11:15 +0200 bisonc++ (1.00a) unstable; urgency=low * Debian's Linda and lintian errors, warnings and notes processed. No messages are generated by linda and lintian in this version. -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 28 May 2006 14:26:03 +0200 bisonc++ (1.00) unstable; urgency=low * Bisonc++ Version 1.00 has changed markedly as compared to its predecessor, bisonc++ 0.98.510. The main reason for upgrading to 1.00 following a year of testing the 0.98 series is that the grammar analysis and lookahead propagation algorithms as used in bisonc++ 0.98.510 were either too cumbersome and contained some unfortunate errors. The errors were discovered during my 2005-2006 C++ class, where some students produced grammars which were simple, but were incorrectly analyzed by bisonc++ 0.98. It turned out that the lookahead (LA) propagation contained several flaws. Furthermore, a plain and simple bug assigned the last-used priority to terminal tokens appearing literally in the grammar (i.e., without explicitly defining them in a %token or comparable directive). A simple, but potentially very confusing bug. At the cosmetic level, the information produced with the --construction option was modified, aiming at better legibility of the construction process. The `examples' directory was reduced in size, moving most examples to a new directory `regression', which now contains a script `run' that can be used to try each of the examples below the `regression' directory. Some of the examples call `bison', so in order to run those examples `bison' must be installed as well. It usually is. A minor backward IN-compatibility results from a change in prototype of some private parser member functions. This should only affect exising Parser.h header files. Simply replacing the `support functions for parse()' section shown at the end of the header file by the following lines should make your header file up-to-date again. Note that bisonc++ does not by itself rewrite Parser.h to prevent undoing any modifications you may have implemented in the parser-class header file: // support functions for parse(): void executeAction(int ruleNr); void errorRecovery(); int lookup(); void nextToken(); Please note that this version depends on bobcat 1.7.1 or beyond. If you compile bobcat yourself, then you may want to know that bobcat's Milter and Xpointer classes are not used by bisonc++, so they could optionally be left out of bobcat's compilation. -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 7 May 2006 15:10:05 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.510) unstable; urgency=low * When no %union has been declared, no $$ warnings are issued anymore about non-exisiting types; When no %union has been declared a $i or $$ warning is issued about non-exisiting types. The State table (in the generated parse.cc file) containing `PARSE_ACCEPT' was created with a `REDUCE' indication for grammars whose start symbol's production rules were non-repetitive. This was repaired in state/writestatearray.cc by setting the (positive) non-reduce indication for states using shifts and/or the accept state. The logic in writeStateArray() was modifed: a separate ShiftReduce::Status variable is now used to store the possible actions: SHIFT, REDUCE or ACCEPT. The tables show `SHIFTS' if a state uses shifts; `ACCEPTS' if a state contains PARSE_ACCEPT; and `REDUCE' otherwise. -- Frank B. Brokken Tue, 21 Mar 2006 20:47:49 +0100 bisonc++ (0.98.500) unstable; urgency=low * Handling of $i and $$ repaired, added the %negative-dollar-indices directive. $ specifications were not properly parsed. Instead of $i or $$ constructions like $i and $$ were parsed, which is contrary to the manual's specification. The function parsing the $-values is defined in parser/handledollar.cc. The handling of negative $-indices is improved. Negative $-indices are used when synthesizing attributes. In that context, $0 is useful, since it refers to the nonterminal matched before the current rule is starting to be used, allowing rules like `vardef: typename varlist ' where `varlist' inherits the type specification defined at `typename'. In most situations indices are positive. Therefore bisonc++ will warn when zero or non-positive $-indices are seen. The %negative-dollar-indices directive may be used to suppress these warnings. $-indices exceeding the number of elements continue to cause an error. -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 5 Mar 2006 13:59:08 +0100 bisonc++ (0.98.402) unstable; urgency=low * links against bobcat 1.6.0, using bobcat's new Arg:: interface -- Frank B. Brokken Mon, 26 Dec 2005 19:25:42 +0100 bisonc++ (0.98.400) unstable; urgency=low * state/writestatearray.cc adds {} around individual union values to allow warningless compilation of the generated parse.cc file by g++-4.0. bisonc++ is now itself too compiled by g++-4.0. -- Frank B. Brokken Fri, 18 Nov 2005 22:46:06 +0100 bisonc++ (0.98.007) unstable; urgency=low * Added a README.flex file giving some background information about the provided implementation of the lexical scanner (bisonc++/scanner/yylex.cc) Modified the compilation scripts: bisconc++/flex/FlexLexer.h is now included by default. This FlexLexer.h file is expected by bisonc++/scanner/yylex.cc and by the Scanner class. Simplified some compilation scripts. -- Frank B. Brokken Fri, 9 Sep 2005 11:42:24 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.006) unstable; urgency=low * Removed the dependency on `icmake'. No change of functionality See the instructions in the `INSTALL' file when you want to compile and install `bisonc++' yourself, rather than using the binary (.deb) distribution. -- Frank B. Brokken Sat, 3 Sep 2005 17:42:29 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.005) unstable; urgency=low * Removed the classes Arg, Errno, Msg and Wrap1, using the Bobcat library's versions of these classes from now on. No feature-changes. Added minor modifications to the `build' script. Annoying Error: The function `ItemSets::deriveAction()' did not recognize the `ACCEPT' action, so some (most ?) grammars could not be properly recognized. I applied a quick hack: if an action isn't `shift' or `reduce', it can be `accept', resulting in acceptance of the grammar. This solves the actual problem, but I'll have to insepct this in a bit more detail. For now, it should work ok. -- Frank B. Brokken Mon, 22 Aug 2005 13:05:28 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.004) unstable; urgency=low * When new lookahead set elements are added to existing states, d_recheckState in itemsets/lookaheads.cc (ItemSets::checkLookaheads()) was reassigned to the state index whose lookaheadset was enlarged. However, if that happened for existing state `i' and then, during the same state-inspection, for state `j' where j > i, then the recheck would start at `j' rather than `i'. This problem was solved by giving d_recheckState only a lower value than its current value. With R/R conflicts involving `ACCEPT' reductions (with, e.g., `S_$: S .'), ACCEPT is selected as the chosen alternative. See State::setReduce() (state/setreduce.cc). Since this matches with the `first reduction rule' principle, it should be ok. %stype specifications may consist of multiple elements: the remainder of the line beyond %stype is interpreted as the type definition. The specification should (therefore) not contain comment or other characters that are not part of the actual type definition. The man-page is adapted accordingly. Same holds true for the %ltype directive Added a check whether the grammar derives a sentence (itemsets/derivesentence.cc). If not, a fatal error is issued. This happens at the end of the program's actions, and at this point files etc. have already been generated. They are kept rather than removed for further reference. Grammars not deriving sentences should probably not be used. The original Bison documentation has been converted to a Bisonc++ user guide. Furthermore, a html-converted manual page is now available under /usr/share/doc/bisonc++/man The `calculator' example used in the man-page is now under /usr/share/doc/bisonc++/man/calculator Bisonc++ is distributed under the Academic Free License, see the file COPYING in /usr/share/doc/bisonc++ -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 7 Aug 2005 13:49:07 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.003) unstable; urgency=low * Incomplete default State constructor now explicitly defined, prevents the incidental erroneous rapporting of conflicts for some states. -- Frank B. Brokken Thu, 26 May 2005 07:21:20 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.002) unstable; urgency=low * The Wrap1 configurable unary predicate template class replaces various other templates (WrapStatic, Wrap, Pred1Wrap). No further usage or implementation changes/modifications. -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 22 May 2005 15:27:19 +0200 bisonc++ (0.98.001) unstable; urgency=low * This is a complete rewrite of the former bisonc++ (0.91) version. The program bisonc++ is now a C++ program, producing C++ sources, using the algorithm for creating LALR-1 grammars as outlined by Aho, Sethi and Ullman's (1986) `Dragon' book. The release number will remain 0.98 for a while, and 0.98.001 holds the initial package, new style. Also see the man-page, since some things have been changed (augmented) since the previous version. No dramatic changes in the grammar specification method: Bisonc++ still uses bison's way to specify grammars, but some features, already obsolete in bisonc++ 0.91 were removed. Also note my e-mail address: the U. of Groningen's official policy now is to remove department specific information, so it's `@rug.nl' rather than `@rc.rug.nl', as used before. -- Frank B. Brokken Mon, 16 May 2005 13:39:38 +0200 bisonc++ (0.91) unstable; urgency=low * Added several missing short options (like -B etc) to the getopt() function call. I forgot to add them to the previous version(s). Internally, all old C style allocations were changed to C++ style allocations, using operators new and delete. Where it was immediately obvious that a vector could be used, I now use vectors. The internally used types `core' `shifts' and 'reductions' (types.h) now use a vector data member rather than an int [1] member, which is then allocated to its proper (I may hope) size when the structs are allocated. -- Frank B. Brokken Sat, 19 Feb 2005 10:21:58 +0100 bisonc++ (0.90) unstable; urgency=low * Command-line options now override matching declarations specified in the grammar specification file. All %define declarations have been removed. Instead their first arguments are now used to specify declarations. E.g., %parser-skeleton instead of %define parser-skeleton. All declarations use lower-case letters, and use only separating hyphens, no underscores. E.g., %lsp-needed rather than %define LSP_NEEDED The declaration %class-name replaces the former %name declaration All yy and YY name prefixes of symbols defined by bisonc++ have been removed. The parser-state `yydefault' has been renamed to `defaultstate'. -- Frank B. Brokken Sun, 6 Feb 2005 12:50:40 +0100 bisonc++ (0.82) unstable; urgency=low * Added d_nError as protected data member to the base class. Missed it during the initial conversion. d_nErrors counts the number of parsing errors. Replaces yynerrs from bison(++) -- Frank B. Brokken Sat, 29 Jan 2005 18:58:24 +0100 bisonc++ (0.81) unstable; urgency=low * Added the option --show-files to display the names of the files that are used or generated by bisonc++. -- Frank B. Brokken Fri, 28 Jan 2005 14:50:48 +0100 bisonc++ (0.80) unstable; urgency=low * Completed the initial debian release. No changes in the software. -- Frank B. Brokken Fri, 28 Jan 2005 14:30:05 +0100 bisonc++ (0.70-1) unstable; urgency=low * Initial Release. -- Frank B. Brokken Thu, 27 Jan 2005 22:34:50 +0100
