Hello all (from France)
FWIW, I have been many years ago a contributor to GCC.
https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc/2006-12/msg00008.html
Now I am retired (part time teaching Ocaml at Univ Paris 6) but still
coding smaller open source projects. My current one is the RefPerSys
<http://refpersys.org/> inference engine (GPLv3+) on github
<https://github.com/RefPerSys/RefPerSys/>. It is developed on my
Debian/Trixie/x86-64 desktop at home. I have a few informal contributors.
(RefPerSys is not yet funded and aims to become a better than CLIPSrules
inference engine)
So I git cloned GNU bison to
https://github.com/bstarynk/misc-basile/tree/master/bison-refpersys
Perhaps I was wrong in copying it in some existing repository
https://github.com/bstarynk/misc-basile ? If that is the case please tell!
I am simply adding (to bison-refpersys/src/print.h) a few C macros
emitting comments:
#define PRINT_FROM_COMMENT(Fil) do{fprintf(Fil,"//§ from %s@%s:%d\n", \
__FUNC__, __FILE__, __LINE__);} while(0)
#define OBSTACK_PRINT_FROM_COMMENT(Obs) do{obstack_fprintf(Obs, \
"//§ from %s@%s:%d\n", \
__FUNC__, __FILE__, __LINE__);} while(0)
and patched also the bison-refpersys/src/print.c and
bison-refpersys/src/output.c and bison-refpersys/src/print.h files to
use them.
With the hope that emitting useless C (or C++) comments won't harm that
bison-refpersys.
But I am unable to build that modified bison-refpersys on my Debian laptop?
In RefPerSys we have a precise garbage collector and runtime generation
of C++ code (taking ideas from https://arxiv.org/pdf/1109.0779 ...) so I
think we need to improve GNU bison to generate C++ code compatible with
our garbage collector.
Your help is appreciated.
Regards.
