.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
.Nd an
|
|
.Tn LALR(1)
|
|
parser generator
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
.Op Fl dlrtv
|
|
.Op Fl b Ar prefix
|
|
.Ar filename
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Yacc
|
|
reads the grammar specification in the file
|
|
.Ar filename
|
|
and generates an
|
|
.Tn LR(1)
|
|
parser for it.
|
|
The parsers consist of a set of
|
|
.Tn LALR(1)
|
|
parsing tables and a driver routine
|
|
written in the C programming language.
|
|
.Nm Yacc
|
|
normally writes the parse tables and the driver routine to the file
|
|
.Pa y.tab.c .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ar
|
|
.It Fl b Ar prefix
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl b
|
|
option changes the prefix prepended to the output file names to
|
|
the string denoted by
|
|
.Ar prefix .
|
|
The default prefix is the character
|
|
.Ar y .
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl d
|
|
option causes the header file
|
|
.Pa y.tab.h
|
|
to be written.
|
|
.It Fl l
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl l
|
|
option is not specified,
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
will insert #line directives in the generated code.
|
|
The #line directives let the C compiler relate errors in the
|
|
generated code to the user's original code.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl l
|
|
option is specified,
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
will not insert the #line directives.
|
|
#line directives specified by the user will be retained.
|
|
.It Fl r
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl r
|
|
option causes
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
to produce separate files for code and tables.
|
|
The code file is named
|
|
.Pa y.code.c ,
|
|
and the tables file is named
|
|
.Pa y.tab.c .
|
|
.It Fl t
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl t
|
|
option changes the preprocessor directives generated by
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
so that debugging statements will be incorporated in the compiled code.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl v
|
|
option causes a human-readable description of the generated parser to
|
|
be written to the file
|
|
.Pa y.output .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
|
|
The following environment variable is referenced by
|
|
.Nm yacc :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width TMPDIR
|
|
.It Ev TMPDIR
|
|
If the environment variable
|
|
.Ev TMPDIR
|
|
is set, the string denoted by
|
|
.Ev TMPDIR
|
|
will be used as the name of the directory where the temporary
|
|
files are created.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh TABLES
|
|
The names of the tables generated by this version of
|
|
.Nm yacc
|
|
are
|
|
.Dq yylhs ,
|
|
.Dq yylen ,
|
|
.Dq yydefred ,
|
|
.Dq yydgoto ,
|
|
.Dq yysindex ,
|
|
.Dq yyrindex ,
|
|
.Dq yygindex ,
|
|
.Dq yytable ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq yycheck .
|
|
Two additional tables,
|
|
.Dq yyname
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq yyrule ,
|
|
are created if
|
|
.Dv YYDEBUG
|
|
is defined and non-zero.
|
|

.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
If there are rules that are never reduced, the number of such rules is
|
|
written to the standard error.
|
|
If there are any
|
|
.Tn LALR(1)
|
|
conflicts, the number of conflicts is also written
|
|
to the standard error.
