According to the manual page, the debug-output generated by parsers

The usage info now correctly shows the -V flag as a synonym for the
--verbose option.

bisonc++ (1.02) unstable; urgency=low
* Following suggestions made by George Danchev, this version was compiled by
the unstable's g++ compiler (version >= 4.1), which unveiled several flaws
in the library's class header files. These flaws were removed (i.e.,
repaired).
In order to facilitate compiler selection, the compiler to use is defined
in the INSTALL.cf file.
The debian control-files (i.e., all files under the debian subdirectory)
were removed from the source distribution, which is now also named in
accordance with the Debian policy. A diff.gz file was added.

* Synchronized the version back to numbers-only, adapted the debian

the need to join various sub-sub-versions back to just one standard
version.

bisonc++ (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
* Bisonc++ Version 1.00 has changed markedly as compared to its predecessor,
bisonc++ 0.98.510.
The main reason for upgrading to 1.00 following a year of testing the 0.98
series is that the grammar analysis and lookahead propagation algorithms
as used in bisonc++ 0.98.510 were either too cumbersome and contained some
unfortunate errors.
The errors were discovered during my 2005-2006 C++ class, where some
students produced grammars which were simple, but were incorrectly
analyzed by bisonc++ 0.98. It turned out that the lookahead (LA)
propagation contained several flaws. Furthermore, a plain and simple bug
assigned the last-used priority to terminal tokens appearing literally in
the grammar (i.e., without explicitly defining them in a %token or
comparable directive). A simple, but potentially very confusing bug.
At the cosmetic level, the information produced with the --construction
option was modified, aiming at better legibility of the construction
process.
The `examples' directory was reduced in size, moving most examples to a
new directory `regression', which now contains a script `run' that can be
used to try each of the examples below the `regression' directory. Some of
the examples call `bison', so in order to run those examples `bison' must
be installed as well. It usually is.
A minor backward IN-compatibility results from a change in prototype of
some private parser member functions. This should only affect exising
Parser.h header files. Simply replacing the `support functions for
parse()' section shown at the end of the header file by the following
lines should make your header file up-to-date again. Note that bisonc++
does not by itself rewrite Parser.h to prevent undoing any modifications
you may have implemented in the parser-class header file:
// support functions for parse():
void executeAction(int ruleNr);
void errorRecovery();
int lookup();
void nextToken();
Please note that this version depends on bobcat 1.7.1 or beyond. If you
compile bobcat yourself, then you may want to know that bobcat's Milter
and Xpointer classes are not used by bisonc++, so they could optionally be
left out of bobcat's compilation.

bisonc++ (0.98.510) unstable; urgency=low
* When no %union has been declared, no $$ warnings are issued anymore about
non-exisiting types;
When no %union has been declared a $<type>i or $<type>$ warning is issued
about non-exisiting types.
The State table (in the generated parse.cc file) containing `PARSE_ACCEPT'
was created with a `REDUCE' indication for grammars whose start symbol's
production rules were non-repetitive. This was repaired in
state/writestatearray.cc by setting the (positive) non-reduce indication
for states using shifts and/or the accept state.
The logic in writeStateArray() was modifed: a separate ShiftReduce::Status
variable is now used to store the possible actions: SHIFT, REDUCE or
ACCEPT. The tables show `SHIFTS' if a state uses shifts; `ACCEPTS' if a
state contains PARSE_ACCEPT; and `REDUCE' otherwise.

bisonc++ (0.98.500) unstable; urgency=low
* Handling of $<type>i and $<type>$ repaired, added the
%negative-dollar-indices directive.
$<type> specifications were not properly parsed. Instead of $<type>i or
$<type>$ constructions like $i<type> and $$<type> were parsed, which is
contrary to the manual's specification. The function parsing the $-values
is defined in parser/handledollar.cc.
The handling of negative $-indices is improved. Negative $-indices are
used when synthesizing attributes. In that context, $0 is useful, since it
refers to the nonterminal matched before the current rule is starting to
be used, allowing rules like `vardef: typename varlist ' where `varlist'
inherits the type specification defined at `typename'.
In most situations indices are positive. Therefore bisonc++ will warn when
zero or non-positive $-indices are seen. The %negative-dollar-indices
directive may be used to suppress these warnings.
$-indices exceeding the number of elements continue to cause an error.

bisonc++ (0.98.005) unstable; urgency=low
* Removed the classes Arg, Errno, Msg and Wrap1, using the Bobcat library's
versions of these classes from now on. No feature-changes.
Added minor modifications to the `build' script.
Annoying Error: The function `ItemSets::deriveAction()' did not recognize
the `ACCEPT' action, so some (most ?) grammars could not be properly
recognized. I applied a quick hack: if an action isn't `shift' or
`reduce', it can be `accept', resulting in acceptance of the grammar. This
solves the actual problem, but I'll have to insepct this in a bit more
detail. For now, it should work ok.

bisonc++ (0.98.004) unstable; urgency=low
* When new lookahead set elements are added to existing states,
d_recheckState in itemsets/lookaheads.cc (ItemSets::checkLookaheads()) was
reassigned to the state index whose lookaheadset was enlarged. However, if
that happened for existing state `i' and then, during the same
state-inspection, for state `j' where j > i, then the recheck would start
at `j' rather than `i'. This problem was solved by giving d_recheckState
only a lower value than its current value.
With R/R conflicts involving `ACCEPT' reductions (with, e.g., `S_$: S .'),
ACCEPT is selected as the chosen alternative. See State::setReduce()
(state/setreduce.cc). Since this matches with the `first reduction rule'
principle, it should be ok.
%stype specifications may consist of multiple elements: the remainder of
the line beyond %stype is interpreted as the type definition. The
specification should (therefore) not contain comment or other characters
that are not part of the actual type definition. The man-page is adapted
accordingly. Same holds true for the %ltype directive
Added a check whether the grammar derives a sentence
(itemsets/derivesentence.cc). If not, a fatal error is issued. This
happens at the end of the program's actions, and at this point files
etc. have already been generated. They are kept rather than removed for
further reference. Grammars not deriving sentences should probably not be
used.
The original Bison documentation has been converted to a Bisonc++ user
guide. Furthermore, a html-converted manual page is now available under
/usr/share/doc/bisonc++/man

bisonc++ (0.98.001) unstable; urgency=low
* This is a complete rewrite of the former bisonc++ (0.91) version. The
program bisonc++ is now a C++ program, producing C++ sources, using the
algorithm for creating LALR-1 grammars as outlined by Aho, Sethi and
Ullman's (1986) `Dragon' book. The release number will remain 0.98 for a
while, and 0.98.001 holds the initial package, new style. Also see the
man-page, since some things have been changed (augmented) since the
previous version. No dramatic changes in the grammar specification method:
Bisonc++ still uses bison's way to specify grammars, but some features,
already obsolete in bisonc++ 0.91 were removed.
Also note my e-mail address: the U. of Groningen's official policy now is
to remove department specific information, so it's `@rug.nl' rather than
`@rc.rug.nl', as used before.

* Added several missing short options (like -B etc) to the getopt() function
call. I forgot to add them to the previous version(s). Internally, all old
C style allocations were changed to C++ style allocations, using operators
new and delete. Where it was immediately obvious that a vector could be
used, I now use vectors. The internally used types `core' `shifts' and
'reductions' (types.h) now use a vector data member rather than an int [1]
member, which is then allocated to its proper (I may hope) size when the
structs are allocated.

The declaration %class-name replaces the former %name declaration
All yy and YY name prefixes of symbols defined by bisonc++ have been
removed. The parser-state `yydefault' has been renamed to `defaultstate'.
