Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: bison
# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.10
Release: 9.10
bison verson: 2.4.1
Yes I know that writing your own bison skeleton files is officially
unsupported, but I think the approach I've taken is worth the effort.
Regardless of whether or not it's supported, I believe this bug
indicates a problem in bison 2.4.1 that isn't present in bison 2.3.
Rather than spend a thousand words to help you recreate the problem,
I've created a project in SourceForge that will save time.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cxxparse/
To build this you will also need
http://sourceforge.net/projects/v3c/
as well as bison, flex and the packages detailed in v3c/README.
You can either download the .tar.gz files or clone their GIT
repositories.
I (and now you) can build the Debian packages for v3c and then cxxparse by
unpacking them, entering the same directory as their respective README files
and running
make debian
You need to install the Debian / Ubuntu packages for v3c first by
cd build && sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Once done you are in a position to build the cxxparse package.
The skeleton I've written generates another file containing a class that
contains the lex token enumeration and the example in
cxxparse/flexx/tests shows how this is used as a base class by the scanner -
all very c++ and neat.
Except it doesn't work on Ubuntu - hence this bug report.
I'm pretty sure that it's because Ubuntu supplies bison 2.4.1 whereas Debian
comes with bison 2.3.
Ideally you could take my skeleton as "inspiration" for another bison
skeleton, but if not then helping me solve this problem would be good
too.
What is expected to happen:
built debian/ubuntu packages in the cxxparse build directory
What happened instead:
../../../../v3c/flexx/tests/calc.ypp: fatal error: invalid @ in skeleton:
@output m4_fst
