I don't think I've tried that in this century ;-). Between the sheer size of the grammar and the fact that we're already depending on the behavior of several arcane %-options, I really doubt any tool besides bison will work. Besides, the whole point of shipping the built files in tarballs is to ensure no one has to use any other tool. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
