Package: bisonc++ Version: 2.2.0-1 Severity: normal
In some grammars semantic values associated with tokens returned by a lexical scanner may be lost during the parsing process. This happens in states in which both a shift and a reduce may be possible. If a reduce is executed the already received token value is saved for a subsequent shift, but (currently) its associated semantic value is not saved. The repair is easily implemented: In /usr/share/bisonc++: 1. In bisonc++base.h change the lines below class [EMAIL PROTECTED] from: STYPE__ d_val__; $insert LTYPEdata into: STYPE__ d_val__; STYPE__ d_nextVal__; $insert LTYPEdata 2. In bisonc++.cc add one line to the function void [EMAIL PROTECTED]::popToken__() as follows: void [EMAIL PROTECTED]::popToken__() { d_token__ = d_nextToken__; d_val__ = d_nextVal__; // this line is added d_nextToken__ = _UNDETERMINED_; } 3. In bisonc++.cc modify the function void \@::executeAction(int production) from: void \@::executeAction(int production) { $insert 4 debug "executeAction(): of rule " << production << " ..." switch (production) into: void \@::executeAction(int production) { $insert 4 debug "executeAction(): of rule " << production << " ..." d_nextVal__ = d_val__; // Save the semantic value that may // already have been retrieved by the next // token (which does not permit a // transition in a REQ_DEF state) switch (production) This bug was brought to my attention by Dallas Clement. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21.1 (SMP w/1 CPU core; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bisonc++ depends on: ii libbobcat1 1.17.1-1 run-time (shared) Bobcat library ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.2.1-4 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.2.1-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 bisonc++ recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
